* ath9k_hw: fix interpretation of the rx KeyMiss flagFelix Fietkau2012-01-161-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Documentation states that the KeyMiss flag is only valid if RxFrameOK is unset, however empirical evidence has shown that this is false. When KeyMiss is set (and RxFrameOK is 1), the hardware passes a valid frame which has not been decrypted. The driver then falsely marks the frame as decrypted, and when using CCMP this corrupts the rx CCMP PN, leading to connection hangs.

* ath9k_hw: fix a regression in key miss handlingFelix Fietkau2011-10-111-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: John W.

* ath9k_hw: Fix incorrect key_miss handlingSenthil Balasubramanian2011-07-131-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Decryping frames on key_miss handling shouldn't be done for Michael MIC failed frames as h/w would have already decrypted such frames successfully anyway. Also leaving CRC and PHY error(where the frame is going to be dropped anyway), we are left to prcoess Decrypt error for which s/w decrypt is selected anway and so having key_miss as a separate check doesn't serve anything. So making key_miss handling mutually exlusive with other RX status handling makes much more sense. This patch addresses an issue with STA not reporting MIC failure events resulting in STA being disconnected immediately.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During PHY errors, the MAC can sometimes fail to enter an idle state on older hardware (before AR9380) after an rx stop has been requested. This typically shows up in the kernel log with messages like these: ath: Could not stop RX, we could be confusing the DMA engine when we start RX up ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: at drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/recv.c:504 ath_stoprecv+0xcc/0xf0 [ath9k]() Call Trace: [<8023f0e8>] dump_stack+0x8/0x34 [<80075050>] warn_slowpath_common+0x78/0xa4 [<80075094>] warn_slowpath_null+0x18/0x24 [<80d66d60>] ath_stoprecv+0xcc/0xf0 [ath9k] [<80d642cc>] ath_set_channel+0xbc/0x270 [ath9k] [<80d65254>] ath_radio_disable+0x4a4/0x7fc [ath9k] When this happens, the state that the MAC enters is easy to identify and does not result in bogus DMA traffic, however to ensure a working state after a channel change, the hardware should still be reset.

| * ath9k: improve reliability of beacon transmission and stuck beacon handlingFelix Fietkau2011-03-141-62/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ath9k calls ath9k_hw_stoptxdma every time it sends a beacon, however there is not much point in doing that if the previous beacon and mcast traffic went out properly. On AR9380, calling that function too often can result in an increase of stuck beacons due to differences in the handling of the queue enable/disable functionality. With this patch, the queue will only be explicitly stopped if the previous data frames were not sent successfully. With the beacon code being the only remaining user of ath9k_hw_stoptxdma, this function can be simplified in order to remove the now pointless attempts at waiting for transmission completion, which would never happen at this point due to the different method of tx scheduling of the beacon queue.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In some situations, stopping Tx DMA frequently fails, leading to messages like this: ath: Failed to stop TX DMA in 100 msec after killing last frame ath: Failed to stop TX DMA! This patch uses a few MAC features to abort DMA globally instead of iterating over all hardware queues and attempting to stop them individually. Not only is that faster and works with a shorter timeout, it also makes the process much more reliable. With this change, I can no longer trigger these messages on AR9380, and on AR9280 they become much more rare. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.
