In the legacy rt2570 driver the link tuner was never really called. And now the reason has finally become apparent: It breaks TX capabilities As soon as the device has been associated all following TX frames will be queued in the hardware and never transmitted to the air. Disabling sections of the link tuner did not have the expected result, but completely disabling the link tuner did have the right result (Both of my rt2570 devices came back to life). This should fix Fedora bug: 411481 v2: Fix typos Signed-off-by:

In kernel version 2.6.26-rc9 my wireless LAN card worked; but in the released 2.6.26, my RaLink rt2500 card wouldn't associate. Git-bisect led me to this patch: 61486e0f rt2x00: Remove ieee80211_tx_control argument from write_tx_desc() I believe that there is a problem with that patch --- it (inadvertantly) removes an extra line of code, that used to set the DATABYTE_COUNT field. This patch reinstates that line, and with it my card works again. Signed-off-by:

This patch fixes mac80211 to not use the skb->cb over the queue step from virtual interfaces to the master. The patch also, for now, disables aggregation because that would still require requeuing, will fix that in a separate patch. There are two other places (software requeue and powersaving stations) where requeue can happen, but that is not currently used by any drivers/not possible to use respectively. Signed-off-by:

rt2x00 will only perform configuration changes from mac80211 when the configuration option has changed. This means it keeps track of the current active configuration and will check these values when the config() callback function is used. However this causes breakage when the interface has been brought down and up again, since all stored active values aren't reset while the registers might have. This is for example the case with rt61pci antenna registers which will jump to invalid values when the interface has been started. To make sure a full configuration takes place after the start() callback function, a new flag is added which will be checked during config() and skips the "what's changed" phase. Signed-off-by:

When IEEE80211_TX_CTL_ASSIGN_SEQ is not set, the driver should disable hardware sequence counting to make sure the mac80211 provided counter is used. This fixes QOS sequence counting, since that is one of the cases where mac80211 provides a seperate sequence counter. By moving the sequence counting code to rt2x00queue we make sure that _all_ frames get the sequence counter, including RTS/CTS and Beacon frames. Signed-off-by:

When setting up a beacon template, the length of the beacon is calculated with the assumption that the SKB already contains the Tx descriptor. In the case of beacons it doesn't. This patch undoes the damage by adding the Tx descriptor length to the beacon length. This is safe, because the shortest possible beacon is longer than the Tx header. Signed-off-by:

Olivier reported a difference between the EIFS values used in the legacy driver and the one in the rt2x00 drivers. In rt2x00 the value was ( SIFS + (8 * (IEEE80211_HEADER + ACK_SIZE)) ) which comes down to 314us while the legacy driver uses the value 364us This was caused because EIFS is: SIFS + DIFS + AckTime This patch will fix this by adding the DIFS by the above value, and creating a SHORT_EIFS define which uses the SHORT_DIFS.

This patch makes mac80211 assign proper sequence numbers to QoS-data frames. It also removes the old sequence number code because we noticed that only the driver or hardware can assign sequence numbers to non-QoS-data and especially management frames in a race-free manner because beacons aren't passed through mac80211's TX path. This patch also adds temporary code to the rt2x00 drivers to not break them completely, that code will have to be reworked for proper sequence numbers on beacons. It also moves sequence number assignment down in the TX path so no sequence numbers are assigned to frames that are dropped. Signed-off-by:

This patch changes mac80211's beacon configuration handling to never pass skbs to the driver directly but rather always require the driver to use ieee80211_beacon_get(). Additionally, it introduces "change flags" on the config_interface() call to enable drivers to figure out what is changing. Finally, it removes the beacon_update() driver callback in favour of having IBSS beacon delivered by ieee80211_beacon_get() as well. Signed-off-by:

As soon as an interface is enabled, and that interface is in adhoc or master mode, the device will start raising beacondone interrupts. But before the first interrupt is raised, mac80211 will probably not have send any beacons to the device yet, which results in a NULL pointer error when the skb is being freed. Note that the "raise beacondone interrupts without a beacon" is also a bug, and will be addressed later. The more important bug however is preventing the NULL pointer failt itself, since there might be other conditions that could trigger it as well. Signed-off-by:

As soon as init_registers() was called, the rt2400/rt2500 would start raising beacondone interrupts. Since this is highly premature since no beacons were provided yet, we should initialize the synchronization register to 0. This will make all drivers initialize it to 0 regardless if they are raising beacondone interrupts or not, since it only makes sense to have it completely disabled. Signed-off-by:

This fixes a circular locking dependency in the workqueue handling. The interface work task uses the mac80211 function ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces() which grabs the RTNL lock. However when the interface is brough down, this happens under the RTNL lock as well, this causes problems because mac80211 will flush the workqueue during the ifdown event. This causes mac80211 to wait until the driver has completed all work which can't finish because it is waiting on the RTNL lock. This is fixed by moving rt2x00 workqueue tasks on a different workqueue, this workqueue can be flushed when the ieee80211_hw structure is removed by the driver (when the driver is unloaded) which does not happen under the RTNL lock.

When rt2x00queue_alloc_rxskbs() fails rt2x00queue_unitialize() will be called which will free all rxskb. So we don't need to do this in the rt2x00queue_alloc_rxskb() function as well. rt2x00queue_free_skb() unmaps the DMA but doesn't clear the allocation flag. Since the code is copied from rt2x00queue_unmap_skb() anyway (and that function does clear the flag) we might as well use that function directly. Signed-off-by:
