Rajkumar Manoharan 34013524a1 ath9k_hw: Add support to reuse TxIQ cal measurements
Pass an argument to decide whether to reuse the Tx IQ
calibration measurements or not during fast channel change.
This will be later used by MCI support for AR9480.

Rajkumar Manoharan 5f0c04ea1e ath9k_hw: Improve fast channel change for AR9003 chips
In order to reduce the overall scan time, fast channel change
should be implemented properly. This patch adds fast channel
change support across band switch or channel mode switch
instead of doing full chip reset. During the fastcc, tx iqcal
measurements are preserved and will be reloaded after successful
the channel change.

This patch also addressed fast channel issue where the STA can not
see APs in higher than operating channel on 5GHz band after
the association.

Felix Fietkau 846d936350 ath9k_hw: fix a regression in key miss handling
The commit "ath9k_hw: Fix incorrect key_miss handling" changed the code
to only report key miss errors if a MIC error wasn't reported.
When checking the flags in that order in the MAC code, it might miss some
real events, because the value of the MIC error flag is undefined under
some conditions.

The primary issue addressed by the previous commit is making sure that
MIC errors are properly reported on the STA side. This can be fixed in
a better way by adding a separate rx status flag for key miss and
ignoring it for multicast frames.

This fix slightly improves stability in AP mode on some older hardware,
like AR9132.

Felix Fietkau ca2c68cc7b ath9k_hw: clean up tx power handling
The code for handling various restrictions concerning regulatory limits,
antenna gain, etc. is very convoluted and duplicated across various
EEPROM parsing implementations, making it hard to review.

This patch partially cleans up the mess by unifying regulatory limit
handling in one function and simplifying handling of antenna gain.
It also removes unused transmit power scaling arrays from the EEPROM code,
which belonged to an unimplemented API that isn't supposed to be in
the driver anyway.

Felix Fietkau ac06697c79 ath9k: disable unnecessary PHY error reporting
PHY errors relevant for ANI are always tracked by hardware counters, the
bits that allow them to pass through the rx filter are independent of that.
Enabling PHY errors in the rx filter often creates lots of useless DMA traffic
and might be responsible for some of the rx dma stop failure warnings.

If "axq_qnum >= ARRAY_SIZE(sc->tx.txq)", then the call to
ath9k_hw_releasetxqueue() would read beyond the end of the ah->txq[]

Dan Carpenter 8fb7475bde ath5k: remove some unneeded error handling code
th5k_hw_setup_tx_queue() returns a valid offset into the ah->ah_txq[]
array.  The ah->ah_txq[] and the ah->txqs[] array are the same size.
Both have AR5K_NUM_TX_QUEUES elements.  So this error handling code
will never trigger.

Also it's wrong.  The call to ath5k_hw_release_tx_queue() with a qnum
of AR5K_NUM_TX_QUEUES or more will just trigger a WARN_ON() and
return.  Or if it missed the WARN_ON(), it would just corrupt some
memory and return.

Johannes Berg 042ec45337 mac80211: let drivers inform it about per TID buffered frames
For uAPSD implementation, it is necessary to know on
which ACs frames are buffered. mac80211 obviously
knows about the frames it has buffered itself, but
with aggregation many drivers buffer frames. Thus,
mac80211 needs to be informed about this.

For now, since we don't have APSD in any form, this
will unconditionally set the TIM bit for the station
but later with uAPSD only some ACs might cause the
TIM bit to be set.

ath9k is the only driver using this API and I only
modify it in the most basic way, it won't be able
to implement uAPSD with this yet. But it can't do
that anyway since there's no way to selectively
release frames to the peer yet.

Since drivers will buffer frames per TID, let them
inform mac80211 on a per TID basis, mac80211 will
then sort out the AC mapping itself.

To avoid the corruption we need to copy the skb. Now the alignment
in ath6kl_htc_tx_buf_align() doesn't corrupt TCP packets anymore (and is
not even used for the cloned skb's that got copied since the alignment
of the data is handled at the copy time).

Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan ba54238552 ath9k: Fix a dma warning/memory leak
proper dma_unmapping and freeing of skb's has to be done in the rx
cleanup for EDMA chipsets when the device is unloaded and this also
seems to address the following warning which shows up occasionally when
the device is unloaded

Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan 1de547d6dc ath6kl: Fix disconnect event reporting
Driver does not report disconnect event properly when in connecting state,
this leads to issues failures in starting reconnection. Send a disconnect
command to target when a disconnect event is received with reason code
other than 3 (DISCONNECT_CMD - disconnect request from host) to make the
frimware stop trying to connect even after giving disconnect event. There
will be one more disconnect event for this disconnect command with reason
code DISCONNECT_CMD which will be notified to cfg80211.

Kalle Valo 5694f96296 ath6kl: pass only unicast frames for aggregation
When pinging form ar6003 to the AP RTT was high even when power save was
disabled:

100 packets transmitted, 97 received, 3% packet loss, time 99125ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 1.875/46.733/795.506/139.181 ms

After some investigation one reason for this was that received
multicast traffic confused the aggrecation logic and caused 400 ms
timeouts when receiving multicast frames from AP.

A simple way to fix is to pass only unicast frames for aggregation. This
improves RTT:

100 packets transmitted, 99 received, 1% packet loss, time 99144ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 2.083/13.084/403.390/56.794 ms
