mac80211: refcount aggregation queue stop

mac80211 currently maintains the ampdu_lock to
avoid starting a queue due to one aggregation
session while another aggregation session needs
the queue stopped.

We can do better, however, and instead refcount
the queue stops for this particular purpose,
thus removing the need for the lock. This will
help making ampdu_action able to sleep.

iwlwifi: fix wrapping when handling aggregated batches

Fairly complex code in iwlagn_tx_status_reply_tx handle the status reports for
aggregated packet batches sent by the NIC. This code aims to handle the case
where the NIC retransmits failed packets from a previous batch; the status
information for these packets can sometimes be inserted in the middle of a
batch and are actually not in order by sequence number! (I verified this can
happen with printk's in the function.)

The code in question adaptively identifies the "first" frame of the batch,
taking into account that it may not be the one corresponding to the first agg
status report, and also handles the case when the set of sent packets wraps the
256-character entry buffer. It generates the agg->bitmap field of sent packets
which is later compared to the BlockAck response from the receiver to see which
frames of those sent in this batch were ACKed. A small logic error (wrapping by
0xff==255 instead of 0x100==256) was causing the agg->bitmap to be set
incorrectly.

Fix this wrapping code, and add extensive comments to clarify what is going on.

Daniel Halperin [Tue, 25 May 2010 01:41:30 +0000 (18:41 -0700)]
iwlwifi: parse block ack responses correctly

Compressed BlockAck frames store the ACKs/NACKs in a 64-bit bitmap that starts
at the sequence number of the first frame sent in the aggregated batch. Note
that this is a selective ACKnowledgement following selective retransmission;
e.g., if frames 1,4-5 in a batch are ACKed then the next transmission will
include frames 2-3,6-10 (7 frames). In this latter case, the Compressed
BlockAck will not have all meaningful information in the low order bits -- the
semantically meaningful bits of the BA will be 0x1f3 (where the low-order frame
is seq 2).

The driver code originally just looked at the lower (in this case, 7) bits of
the BlockAck. In this case, the lower 7 bits of 0x1f3 => only 5 packets,
maximum, could ever be ACKed. In reality it should be looking at all of the
bits, filtered by those corresponding to packets that were actually sent. This
flaw meant that the number of correctly ACked packets could be significantly
underreported and might result in asynchronous state between TX and RX sides as
well as driver and uCode.

Fix this and also add a shortcut that doesn't require the code to loop through
all 64 bits of the bitmap but rather stops when no higher packets are ACKed.

In my experiments this fix greatly reduces throughput swing, making throughput
stable and high. It is also likely related to some of the stalls observed in
aggregation mode and maybe some of the buffer underruns observed, e.g.,

iwlwifi: reduce memory allocation

Currently, the driver allocates up to 19 skb pointers
for each TFD, of which we have 256 per queue. This
means that for each TX queue, we allocate 19k/38k
(an order 4 or 5 allocation on 32/64 bit respectively)
just for each queue's "txb" array, which contains only
the SKB pointers.

However, due to the way we use these pointers only the
first one can ever be assigned. When the driver was
initially written, the idea was that it could be
passed multiple SKBs for each TFD and attach all
those to implement gather DMA. However, due to
constraints in the userspace API and lack of TCP/IP
level checksumming in the device, this is in fact not
possible. And even if it were, the SKBs would be
chained, and we wouldn't need to keep pointers to
each anyway.

Change this to only keep track of one SKB per TFD,
and thereby reduce memory consumption to just one
pointer per TFD, which is an order 0 allocation per
transmit queue.

mac80211: process station blockack action frames from work

Processing an association response could take a bit
of time while we set up the hardware etc. During that
time, the AP might already send a blockack request.
If this happens very quickly on a fairly slow machine,
we can end up processing the blockack request before
the association processing has finished. Since the
blockack processing cannot sleep right now, we also
cannot make it wait in the driver.

As a result, sometimes on slow machines the iwlagn
driver gets totally confused, and no traffic can pass
when the aggregation setup was done before the assoc
setup completed.

I'm working on a proper fix for this, which involves
queuing all blockack category action frames from a
work struct, and also allowing the ampdu_action driver
callback to sleep, which will generally clean up the
code and make things easier.

However, this is a very involved and complex change.
To fix the problem at hand in a way that can also be
backported to stable, I've come up with this patch.
Here, I simply process all aggregation action frames
from the managed interface skb queue, which means
their processing will be serialized with processing
the association response, thereby fixing the problem.

ssb: Handle alternate SSPROM location

In kernel Bugzilla #15825 (2 users), in a wireless mailing list thread
(http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/b43-dev/2010-May/000124.html), and on a
netbook owned by John Linville
(http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=127230751408818&w=4), there are reports
of ssb failing to detect an SPROM at the normal location. After studying the
MMIO trace dump for the Broadcom wl driver, it was determined that the affected
boxes had a relocated SPROM.

This patch fixes all systems that have reported this problem.

If buffer is to be accessed by cpu after dma is over, but

dma_sync_single_for_cpu to sync the buffer between cpu with

ath9k: fix queue stop/start based on the number of pending frames

Because there is a limited number of tx buffers available, once the
queue has been filled to a certain point, ath9k needs to stop accepting
new frames from mac80211. In order to prevent a full WMM queue from
stopping another queue with fewer frames, this patch limits the number
of queued frames to a quarter of the total available tx buffers, minus
some reserved frames to be used for other purposes (e.g. beacons).

Because tx buffers are reserved for frames when they're staged in
software queues as well, the actual queue depth cannot be used for
this, so this patch stores a reference to the tx queue in the ath_buf
struct and keeps track of the total number of pending frames.

Two separate functions (radio enable/disable) are introduced,
because the semantics of radio handling is just not the same
as the start()/stop() callbacks. For example, the HW must not
be disabled, instead, the PHY has to be disabled in radio_disable().
Also, the HW has to be reset properly in radio enable/disable and
certain registers have to be programmed only once, in the
start() callback.

The radio_enable() routine doesn't need the PS wrappers since
we set the HW power mode to AWAKE anyway before calling it.
