Add ath6kl cleaned up driver
Last May we started working on cleaning up ath6kl driver which is currently in staging. The work has happened in a separate ath6kl-cleanup tree: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/kvalo/ath6kl-cleanup.git;a=summary After over 1100 (!) patches we have now reached a state where I would like to start discussing about pushing the driver to the wireless trees and replacing the staging driver. The driver is now a lot smaller and looks like a proper Linux driver. The size of the driver (measured with simple wc -l) dropped from 49 kLOC to 18 kLOC and the number of the .c and .h files dropped from 107 to 22. Most importantly the number of subdirectories reduced from 26 to zero :) There are two remaining checkpatch warnings in the driver which we decided to omit for now: drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath6kl/debug.c:31: WARNING: printk() should include KERN_ facility level drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath6kl/sdio.c:527: WARNING: msleep < 20ms can sleep for up to 20ms; see Documentation/timers/timers-howto.txt The driver has endian annotations for all the hardware specific structures and there are no sparse errors. Unfortunately I don't have any big endian hardware to test that right now. We have been testing the driver both on x86 and arm platforms. The code is also compiled with sparc and parisc cross compilers. Notable missing features compared to the current staging driver are: o HCI over SDIO support o nl80211 testmode o firmware logging o suspend support Testmode, firmware logging and suspend support will be added soon. HCI over SDIO support will be more difficult as the HCI driver needs to share code with the wifi driver. This is something we need to research more. Also I want to point out the changes I did for signed endian support. As I wasn't able to find any support for signed endian annotations I decided to follow what NTFS has done and added my own. Grep for sle16 and sle32, especially from wmi.h. Various people have been working on the cleanup, the hall of fame based on number of patches is: 543 Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan 403 Raja Mani 252 Kalle Valo 16 Vivek Natarajan 12 Suraj Sumangala 3 Joe Perches 2 Jouni Malinen Signed-off-by: Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan <vthiagar@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: Raja Mani <rmani@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: Vivek Natarajan <nataraja@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: Suraj Sumangala <surajs@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <jouni@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@qca.qualcomm.com>

+ * Bootloader Messaging Interface (BMI)
+ *
+ * BMI is a very simple messaging interface used during initialization
+ * to read memory, write memory, execute code, and to define an
+ * application entry PC.
+ *
+ * It is used to download an application to ATH6KL, to provide
+ * patches to code that is already resident on ATH6KL, and generally
+ * to examine and modify state. The Host has an opportunity to use
+ * BMI only once during bootup. Once the Host issues a BMI_DONE
+ * command, this opportunity ends.
+ *
+ * The Host writes BMI requests to mailbox0, and reads BMI responses
+ * from mailbox0. BMI requests all begin with a command
+ * (see below for specific commands), and are followed by
+ * command-specific data.
+ *
+ * Flow control:
+ * The Host can only issue a command once the Target gives it a
+ * "BMI Command Credit", using ATH6KL Counter #4. As soon as the
+ * Target has completed a command, it issues another BMI Command
+ * Credit (so the Host can issue the next command).
+ *
+ * BMI handles all required Target-side cache flushing.
