7e559ec31c drivers/net/wireless/ath/debug.c: Use printf extension %pV
Using %pV reduces the number of printk calls and
eliminates any possible message interleaving from
other printk calls.

041fb8f504 carl9170: tx path review
This patch fixes a few shortcomings in the tx path.

 * move temp. ampdu_[ack]_len out of txinfo->pad.

 * fix WARN_ON from tx.c:line 300 when tx_ampdu_queue
   fails to queue the frame.

 * In tx_prepare, we already have a local pointer
   to the station's ieee80211_sta struct.

 * remove a second !sta check, tx_prepare already takes
   care of that.

066dae93bd ath9k: rework tx queue selection and fix queue stopping/waking
The current ath9k tx queue handling code showed a few issues that could
lead to locking issues, tx stalls due to stopped queues, and maybe even
DMA issues.

The main source of these issues is that in some places the queue is
selected via skb queue mapping in places where this mapping may no
longer be valid. One such place is when data frames are transmitted via
the CAB queue (for powersave buffered frames). This is made even worse
by a lookup WMM AC values from the assigned tx queue (which is
undefined for the CAB queue).

This messed up the pending frame counting, which in turn caused issues
with queues getting stopped, but not woken again.

To fix these issues, this patch removes an unnecessary abstraction
separating a driver internal queue number from the skb queue number
(not to be confused with the hardware queue number).

It seems that this abstraction may have been necessary because of tx
queue preinitialization from the initvals. This patch avoids breakage
here by pushing the software <-> hardware queue mapping to the function
that assigns the tx queues and redefining the WMM AC definitions to
match the numbers used by mac80211 (also affects ath9k_htc).

To ensure consistency wrt. pending frame count tracking, these counters
are moved to the ath_txq struct, updated with the txq lock held, but
only where the tx queue selected by the skb queue map actually matches
the tx queue used by the driver for the frame.

2a6cef513f carl9170: stop stale uplink BA sessions
This patch fixes a possible lengthy stall if the device
is operating as an experimental 11n AP and an STA
[during heavy txrx action] suddenly signalized to go
off-channel (old NetworkManager), or (sleep - which is
unlikely, because then it wouldn't be *active* at all!?).

Because the driver has to manage the BA Window, the
sudden PSM transition can leave active uplink BA
sessions to the STA in a bad state and a proper
cleanup is needed.

RX Stress tests of unidirectional bulk traffic with
bitrates of up to 220Mbit/s have revealed that the
fatal-event recovery logic [which was solely triggered
by an out-of-rx-buffer situation] is too aggressive.

The new method now "pings" the device and then

a restart is needed or not.

78a7685e1e ath9k: add a debug warning when we cannot stop RX
We have seen several DMA races when we race against
stopping and starting the PCU. I suspect that when
we cannot stop the PCU we may hit some of these same
races so warn against them for now but only when
debugging (CONFIG_ATH_DEBUG) is enabled.

If you run into this warning and are a developer,
please fix the cause of the warning. The potential
here, although I cannot prove yet, is that the DMA
engine can be confused and start writing to a buffer
that was already DMA'd before and at least the kernel
assumes is not being accessed by hardware anymore.

assumes the worst case wrt. alignment and generates unaligned load/store
instructions on MIPS for access to all fields.

data structures with __aligned(4), which allows GCC to generate much more

f119da3015 ath9k_hw: Fix AR9280 surprise removal during frequent idle on/off
Bit 22 of AR_WA should be set to fix the situation where chip reset
is asynchronous to clock of analog shift registers, such that when
reset is released, it could mess up the values of analog shift registers
and cause some hw issue on AR9280.

This bit is write only, but the driver does a read-modify-write
on AR_WA without setting bit 22 in ar9002_hw_configpcipowersave()
during radio disable. This causes surprise removal of hw. It can
never recover from this state and the hw will become usable only
after a power on/off cycle, and sometimes only during a cold reboot.

This issue can be triggered by doing frequent roaming with the
simple/test-roam script available from the wifi-test project [1]
when roaming between APs quickly. When roaming there is a is a high
possibility that the device being put into idle (radio disable) state
by mac80211 during AUTH->ASSOC. A device hardware reset would fail
and the kernel would output:

This is currently only reproducible with some HB92 (Half Mini-PCIE)
cards but the fix applies to all AR9280 cards. This patch fixes this
issue by setting bit 22 during radio disable.

This patch has fixes for all kernels that has ath9k.

fbb078fcd2 ath9k: check old power mode before clearing cycle counters
ath9k_ps_wakeup() clears the cycle counters after waking up the
hardware using ath9k_hw_setpower, however if power save is disabled,
then the counters will contain useful data, which then gets discarded.
Fix this by checking the old power mode before discarding any data.
