2012-09-24mwifiex: block scan request during heavy Tx trafficAmitkumar Karwar
Currently scan operation is delayed/aborted based on Tx traffic consistency. This decision is taken after receiving scan response of first scan command from FW. But when heavy traffic is running, we can not even afford to send first scan command and go off channel for 30msec. We will block scan request in this case.

2012-09-11mwifiex: have same priority for AP and station trafficAmitkumar Karwar
Currently AP interface has higher priority over station. Hence separate entries are created in "adapter->bss_prio_tbl" for these interfaces and station packet is dequeued only if there is not packet in queue for AP. It is observed that ping for station interface doesn't work if heavy traffic is running on AP. The problem is fixed by having same priority for both the interfaces. This patch also removes an extra initialisation for "priv->bss_priority". Signed-off-by: Amitkumar Karwar <akarwar@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: Bing Zhao <bzhao@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

This patch configures data rates to firmware using bitrate mask provided by cfg80211. Earlier we used to only update band information in this handler which will be used later for ibss network.

2012-07-17mwifiex: add support to use basic rates in ibss join requestAmitkumar Karwar
In mwifiex_set_rf_channel() ibss specific flags were unnecessarily getting modified for infra and AP mode. This patch removes mwifiex_set_rf_channel() function and adds equivalant code in infra, ibss and AP path. For ibss, now we are chosing band based on channel type and basic rates provided in ibss join request. We can start ibss network in A only, B only, G only, BG, BGN, AN mode.

2012-07-17mwifiex: remove unnecessary code in data rate configurationAmitkumar Karwar
1) Remove unnecessary wrapper functions. 2) Currently we don't have command to set Tx data rate, so mwifiex_rate_ioctl_set_rate_value() function and related code can be removed. 3) "ds_rate" filled by mwifiex_ret_tx_rate_cfg() is never used.

2012-07-17mwifiex: remove redundant code in set channel pathAmitkumar Karwar
1) Recently we removed set_channel cfg80211 handler. Also, cfg80211 blocks ibss connection requests if ibss network is already started /joined. Hence the code to restart ibss network in new channel (mwifiex_drv_change_adhoc_chan() function) becomes redundant. 2) mwifiex_bss_set_channel() function is redundant. It does some error checking and calculate adhoc start band and adhoc channel. Cfg80211 already takes care of error checking and provides correct channel information to the driver. Adhoc start band is already calculated in mwifiex_set_rf_channel() function. Other associated code is also removed in this patch.

mwifiex driver supports 2x2 chips as well. Hence valid mcs values are 0 to 15. The check for mcs index is corrected in this patch. For example: if 40MHz is enabled and mcs index is 11, "iw link" command would show "tx bitrate: 108.0 MBit/s" without this patch. Now it shows "tx bitrate: 108.0 MBit/s MCS 11 40Mhz" with the patch.

2012-06-28mwifiex: retrieve correct max_power information in reg_notifier handlerAmitkumar Karwar
As we don't provide custom regulatory rules to cfg80211, "chan->max_power" remains uninitialized (0dbm) and "chan->max_reg_power" will contain maximum power for a channel extracted from regulatory rules provided by CRDA; hence use "chan->max_reg_power" in reg_notifier handler instead of "chan->max_power" to set max_power in firmware.

2012-06-28mwifiex: wakeup main thread to handle command queuedAmitkumar Karwar
We miss to wakeup main thread after adding command to cmd pending queue at follwing places. These commands are handled later when main thread is woken up for handling an interrupt for sleep event from firmware. This adds worst case delay of 50msec. 1) We don't wakeup main thread when asynchronous command is added to cmd pending queue. Move queue_work() call from mwifiex_wait_queue_complete() to mwifiex_send_cmd_async() to wakeup main thread for sync as well as async commands. 2) Scan operation is triggered due to following reasons a) request from user (ex. "iw scan" command) b) Scan performed by driver internally. In first case main thread is woken up when first scan command is queued in cmd pending queue (we don't need to wakeup main thread for subsequent scan commands, because they are queued in scan command response handler), but it is not done for second case. queue_work() is moved inside mwifiex_scan_networks() to handle both the cases.

Adding casts of objects to the same type is unnecessary and confusing for a human reader.

I manually removed the conversions this script produces of casts with __force, __iomem and __user. @@ type T; T *p; @@ - (T *)p + p Neatened the mwifiex_deauthenticate_infra function which was doing odd things with array pointers and not using is_zero_ether_addr.
