Pavel Roskin 931be260ed ath5k: clean up base.h and its use
Remove unnecessary includes from base.h.  Add includes to other files as
necessary.  Don't include base.h unless needed.

Move declarations for functions in base.c from ath5k.h to base.h.

Use a better named define to protect base.h against double inclusion.

Pavel Roskin 32c254645f ath5k: eliminate CHANNEL_* macros, use AR5K_MODE_* in channel->hw_value
When checking for the band, use channel->band.

Change ath5k_hw_nic_wakeup() and ath5k_channel_ok() to take
ieee80211_channel.  Change ath5k_hw_radio_revision() to take
ieee80211_band.

Pavel Roskin e0d687bd9d ath5k: merge ath5k_hw and ath5k_softc
Both ath5k_hw and ath5k_softc represent one instance of the hardware.
This duplication is historical and is not needed anymore.

Keep the name "ath5k_hw" for the merged structure and "ah" for the
variable pointing to it.  "ath5k_hw" is shorter than "ath5k_softc", more
descriptive and more widely used.

Put the combined structure to ath5k.h where the old ath5k_softc used to
be. Move some code from base.h to ath5k.h as needed.

Remove memory allocation for struct ath5k_hw and the corresponding error
handling.  Merge iobase and ah_iobase fields.

Felix Fietkau 488a50176c ath5k: fix SIFS time handling
ath5k uses 8 usec as a sifs time, extracted from the initvals, whereas the
standard requires a sifs time of 10. The difference originates from the fact
that the SIFS register has an offset of 2 usec.
Fix the SIFS time definition to use the standard value of 10 usec and subtract
2 usecs when writing the SIFS register.

Bruno Randolf 76a9f6fd9a ath5k: Fix short and long retry configuration
The register definition for retry configuration on AR5212 was wrong, and simply
copied over from AR5210. Update the register definitions from the documentation.

Let the short and long retries be configured from mac80211 and use the standard
values of 7 and 4 by default. Also we need to make sure we don't export more
retries than we are configured for to mac80211 (and the rate module) in
hw->max_rate_tries.

Also clean up the code by removing unused defines and variables and drop the
different values for "station retries" - if these need to be different it can
be handled tru ah_retry_long/short.

 ofdm_timings belongs to phy.c
 rate_duration belongs to pcu.c
 clock functions are general and belong to reset.c (more to follow)

Bruno Randolf de8af45520 ath5k: Simplify cw_min/max and AIFS configuration
Get rid of overly complicated cw_min/max and AIFS configuration:

* Validate values in ath5k_hw_set_tx_queueprops(), so we can use them directly
  without further checks or computation in ath5k_hw_reset_tx_queue().

* Simplifiy by using AR5K_TUNE_AIFS|CWMIN|CWMAX variables directly since we
  don't support XR or B channels. That way we can also remove
  AR5K_TXQ_USEDEFAULT and the confusing logic around it.

* Update data types: AIFS is u8, CW's are u16.

* Remove now unneeded variables in ath5k_hw.

Bob Copeland a951ae2176 ath5k: fix setup for CAB queue
The beacon sent gating doesn't seem to work with any combination
of flags.  Thus, buffered frames tend to stay buffered forever,
using up tx descriptors.

Instead, use the DBA gating and hold transmission of the buffered
frames until 80% of the beacon interval has elapsed using the ready
time.  This fixes the following error in AP mode:

   ath5k phy0: no further txbuf available, dropping packet

Add a comment to acknowledge that this isn't the best solution.

Lukáš Turek 3578e6ebb3 ath5k: Reimplement clock rate to usec conversion
The original code was correct in 802.11a mode only, 802.11b/g uses
different clock rates. The new code uses values taken from FreeBSD HAL
and should be correct for all modes including turbo modes.

The former rate calculation was used by slope coefficient calculation
function ath5k_hw_write_ofdm_timings. However, this function requires
the 802.11a values even in 802.11g mode. Thus the use of
ath5k_hw_htoclock was replaced by hardcoded values. Possibly the slope
coefficient calculation is not related to clock rate at all.

The original code also limited minimum slot time to 9, while turbo modes
use 6, this was fixed too.

Elsewhere, the tqi_type field is compared to constants having a name

Nick Kossifidis 428cbd4ff4 ath5k: Beaconing fixes
* Write next beacon timer even on AP mode since without this we get
 no beacons + ath9k does it too.  Docs say that we must write 0 on
 this register on AP mode to start TSF increment, we do both to be
 on the safe side.

 * Fix num_tx_pending function, we never read the register :P that's
 why we got all those "beacon queue 7 didn't stop messages".

 * Put full prioriy on beacon queue, lock all queues with lower
 priority using the arblock and also bypass any arblock by seting
 the arblock ignore flag.

 * For the CAB queue (do we need this thing ?, it seems crap) since
 it's supposed to fire up after each beacon (we don't use it on driver
 part, ath9k/MadWiFi does), don't make it DBA gated but instead make
 it fire after each beacon by using the beacon sent gated flag.

 * Increase bmiss threshold to 10, that's what we used on MadWiFi for
 a long time. Also when we have pending frames on the beacon queue (we
 got a beacon that didn't make it on the air) it's more likely that
 the beacon queue never started, probably due to faulty DBA setting,
 so change that "beacon queue didn't stop" message.

 Tested this with AP mode and IBSS mode and seems to work fine ;-)
