rt2x00dev->default_ant should be initialized once by the driver, and should not be changed afterwards. Because rt2x00lib_config_antenna() was using a reference to the struct antenna_setup it actually had the oppurtunity to change the default antenna setting and it actually did that during the validation. Instead of passing a pointer to antenna_setup the entire structure should be copied. Signed-off-by:

We can optimize get_duration and get_duration_res by making them a macro. They are really simple calculation handlers so this doesn't matter much. Often (especially in rt2400pci and rt2500pci, the arguments are hardcoded, and the result value is passed into other hardcoded values. By making the functions a macro GCC can optimize the entire thing much better. Signed-off-by:

With the new configuration handling, and more specifically splitting the configuration of the antenna from the normal configuration steps allowed a BUG_ON() to be triggered in the driver because the SW_DIVERSITY was send to the driver. This fixes that by catching the value early in rt2x00config.c and replacing it with a sensible value. This also fixes a problem where the antenna is not being initialized at all when the radio is enabled. Since it no longer is part of the mac80211 configuration the only place where rt2x00 configured it was the SW diversity handler. Obviously this is broken for all non-diversity hardware and breaks SW diversity due to a broken initialization. When the radio is enabled the antenna will be configured once as soon as the config() callback function is called. Signed-off-by:

Some of the flags should be accessed atomically to prevent race conditions. The flags that are most important are those that can change often and indicate the actual state of the device, queue or queue entry. The big flag rename was done to move all state flags to the same naming type as the other rt2x00dev flags and made sure all places where the flags were used were changed. ;) Thanks to Stephen for most of the queue flags updates, which fixes some of the most obvious consequences of the race conditions. Among those the notorious: rt2x00queue_write_tx_frame: Error - Arrived at non-free entry in the non-full queue 0. rt2x00queue_write_tx_frame: Error - Arrived at non-free entry in the non-full queue 0. rt2x00queue_write_tx_frame: Error - Arrived at non-free entry in the non-full queue 0.

The if-statement to determine the new TX/RX antenna configuration was incomplete. It lacks the general else-clause when the antenna wasn't changed. This is a correct event, since it can occur when only one of the antenna's has been changed or when the new configuration is being forced (like when the interface has just been added). 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.

rt73usb and rt2500usb used in_atomic to determine if a configuration step should be rescheduled or not. Since in_atomic() is not a valid method to determine if sleeping is allowed we should fix the way this is handled by adding a new flag to rt2x00. In addition mark LED class support for the drivers broken since that also uses the broken in_atomic() method but so far no solution exists to have LED triggers work only in scheduled context.

Recent changes to the rate structure registration broke rt2x00, the hw_value was reduced from 32bits to 16bits while rt2x00 used the full 32bits. However the way rt2x00 used the value was inflexible and needed to be changed anyway. This patch creates a array containing information for each rate, the hw_value passed to mac80211 is the index value for that array including a field to indicate if short preamble should be enabled.

This patch creates new cfg80211 wiphy API for channel and bitrate registration and converts mac80211 and drivers to the new API. The old mac80211 API is completely ripped out. All drivers (except ath5k) are updated to the new API, in many cases I expect that optimisations can be done. Along with the regulatory code I've also ripped out the IEEE80211_HW_DEFAULT_REG_DOMAIN_CONFIGURED flag, I believe it to be unnecessary if the hardware simply gives us whatever channels it wants to support and we then enable/disable them as required, which is pretty much required for travelling. Additionally, the patch adds proper "basic" rate handling for STA mode interface, AP mode interface will have to have new API added to allow userspace to set the basic rate set, currently it'll be empty... However, the basic rate handling will need to be moved to the BSS conf stuff. I do expect there to be bugs in this, especially wrt. transmit power handling where I'm basically clueless about how it should work. Signed-off-by:

Rework the interface handling. Delete the interface structure and replace it with a per-interface structure. This changes the way rt2x00 handles the active interface drastically. Copy ieee80211_bss_conf to the this rt2x00_intf structure during the bss_info_changed() callback function. This will allow us to reference it later, and removes the requirement for the device flag SHORT_PREAMBLE flag which is interface specific. Drivers receive the option to give the maximum number of virtual interfaces the device can handle. Virtual interface support: rt2400pci: 1 sta or 1 ap, * monitor interfaces rt2500pci: 1 sta or 1 ap, * monitor interfaces rt2500usb: 1 sta or 1 ap, * monitor interfaces rt61pci: 1 sta or 4 ap, * monitor interfaces rt73usb: 1 sta or 4 ap, * monitor interfaces At the moment none of the drivers support AP and STA interfaces simultaneously, this is a hardware limitation so future support will be very unlikely. Each interface structure receives its dedicated beacon entry, with this we can easily work with beaconing while multiple master mode interfaces are currently active. The configuration handlers for the MAC, BSSID and type are often called together since they all belong to the interface configuration. Merge the 3 configuration calls and cleanup the API between rt2x00lib and the drivers. While we are cleaning up the interface configuration anyway, we might as well clean up the configuration handler as well. Signed-off-by:

mac80211 has 3 values for the antenna setup: 0 - default 1 - use antenna 1 2 - use antenna 2 This means that rt2x00 should store the default value from the EEPROM somwhere and use that when mac80211 indicates that the antenna setup is 0. This also implies that rt2x00 should no longer write the hw->config.antenna_sel_* values based on the EEPROM input. This also adds the basis in rt2x00lib for correct software diversity handling. By default rt2x00lib will now configure antenna B instead of hardware diversity. Signed-off-by:

Reorganize configuration handling by creating a extra structure which contains precalculated values based on the mac80211 values which are usefull for all individual drivers. This also fixes the preamble configuration problem, up untill now preamble was never configured since by default the rate->val value was used when changing the mode. Now rate->val will only be used to set the basic rate mask. The preamble configuration will now be done correctly through the erp_ie_changed callback function. Signed-off-by:
