e338a85e21 ath9k: Fix invalid noisefloor reading due to channel update
While switching b/w HT20/40, the current channel's nf values
are updated into history buffer. Since the current channel's
channel type, channel flag got updated before reading
nf value from hw. This channel type mismatch is causing invalid
readings when hw is on ht20 but getnf tries to read on extn chains.

0682c9b52b ath9k: Fix rx overrun interrupt storm
Whenever RXEOL is received, both RXORN and RXEOL got cleared
to avoid rx overrun interrupt storm. This was handled only for
edma chips. The same scenario was also observered with AR9280,
doing frequent channel type switch b/w HT20/40 with bidi traffic
that is causing failure to stop rx dma. This patch clears
the RXEOL & RXORN interrupts for all chips.

ath: DMA failed to stop in 10 ms AR_CR=0x00000024 AR_DIAG_SW=0x42000020
DMADBG_7=0x000062c0
ath: Could not stop RX, we could be confusing the DMA engine when we
start RX up

Disable ASPM in pci ->probe on upstream (device) and downstream

b037b69326 ath9k: do not enable interrupt on set interrupt mask
At preset set_interrupt also enables interrupt after changing
mask. This is not necessary in all cases and also sometime it
breaks the assumption that interrupt was disabled. So let us
enable the interrupt explicity if it was disabled earlier.
This could also avoid unnecessary register ops and also helps
the follow up patch to have global ref count for interrupts ops.

f6b4e4d476 ath9k: Fix locking issue during tx completion
The received tx status of aggregated frame without BlockAck may
cause deaf state in AR5416 cards. So the driver does a reset to
recover. When this happens, we release the pcu_lock before doing
a reset as ath_rest acquires pcu_lock. This is ugly and also not
atomic. Fixing this addresses the TX DMA failure also.

ath_tx_complete_aggr can be called from different paths which
takes different variants of spin_lock. This patch also addresses
the following warning.

fce041beb0 ath9k: unify edma and non-edma tx code, improve tx fifo handling
EDMA based chips (AR9380+) have 8 Tx FIFO slots, which are used to fix the
tx queue start/stop race conditions which have to be worked around for
earlier chips by keeping the last descriptor in the queue. The current code
stores all frames that do not fit onto the 8 FIFO slots in a separate
list. Whenever a FIFO slot is freed up, the next frame (or A-MPDU) from the
pending queue gets moved to that slot.

This process is not only inefficient, but also unnecessary. The code can
be improved visibly by keeping the pending queue fully linked, and moving
the contents of the entire queue to a FIFO slot as it becomes available.

This patch makes the necessary changes for that and also merges some code
that was duplicated for EDMA vs non-EDMA. It changes txq->axq_link to point
to the last descriptor instead of the link pointer, so that
ath9k_hw_set_desc_link can be used, which works on all chips.

With this patch, a small performance increase for non-aggregated traffic
was observed on AR9380 based embedded hardware.

during suspend/S3 state drv_flush is called from mac80211 irrespective of

calls drv_stop only when the interface count(local->count) is non-zero.
unfortunately when the network manager is enabled, drv_flush is called
while drv_stop is not called as local->count reaches '0'.
	So fix this by simply checking for the device presence in the
drv_flush call back in the driver before queueing work or anything else.

5519541d5a ath9k: fix powersave frame filtering/buffering in AP mode
This patch fixes a long standing issue of pending packets in the queue being
sent (and retransmitted many times) to sleeping stations.
This was made worse by aggregation through driver-internal retransmitting
of A-MDPU subframes.
Previously the hardware tx filter was cleared unconditionally for every
single packet - with this patch it uses the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_CLEAR_PS_FILT
for unaggregated frames.
A sta_notify driver op is added to stop aggregation for stations when they
enter powersave mode. Subframes stay buffered inside the driver, to ensure
that the BlockAck window keeps a sane state.
Since the driver uses software aggregation, the clearing of the tx filter
needs to be handled by the driver instead of mac80211 for aggregated frames.

99e4d43ad5 ath9k: configure beacons based on hw opmode
Current ath9k code does not handle beacon timers on opmode
specific. One such example is that a STA beacon config overwrites
already configured AP vif's beacon timers during scan.

On multi station vif case, configure beacon timers beased
on primary vif selected. This also helps while moving back
to single STA vif from multi STA vifs, where the power save
is enabled and hw has to be reconfigured with proper
beacon and bssid/aid. Otherwise connection poll will be triggered
so frequently due to beacon loss.

4f5ef75b15 ath9k: Handle BSSID/AID for multiple interfaces
As of now bssid/aid is overridden with recently changed vif's
bss config. This may cause improper beacon updation due to
bssid/aid mismatch. On station mode, select an associated
sta vif as primary vif and configure that vif's bss into hw.
Update the primary vif on interface change and bss info change.

59575d1c71 ath9k: deny new interface addtion on IBSS mode
The present check denies the IBSS interface addtion if we
already have any other vifs. But it fails to deny interface
addition if IBSS was already present.

cfdc9a8bb8 ath9k: Support RSN IBSS
Add support for using RSN IBSS with ath9k. For now, this uses software
crypto for group addressed frames in RSN IBSS, but that may be
optimized in the future by extending the key cache design to support
per-STA RX GTK.
