Nishant Sarmukadam d9a07d4980 mwl8k: Set mac80211 rx status flags appropriately when hw crypto is enabled
When hw crypto is enabled, set rx status flags appropriately depending on
whether hw crypto is enabled for a particular bss.
Also report MIC errors to mac80211, so that counter measures can be
initiated

Brian Cavagnolo 9902047100 mwl8k: make initial firmware load asynchronous
Introduce a firmware loading state machine to manage the process
of loading firmware asynchronously and completing initialization
upon success.  The state machine attempts to load the preferred
firmware image.  If that fails, and if an alternative firmware
image is available, it will attempt to load that one.

Brian Cavagnolo 952a0e963f mwl8k: add API version checking for AP firmware
The AP firmware specifies an API version in the GET_HW_SPEC
command response.  Currently, the driver only supports AP
firmware for the 8366, and only supports API v1.  In the future,
if higher API version firmwares emerge (possibly for different
chips), different ops can be selected based on the reported API
version.

Brian Cavagnolo 0863ade8d6 mwl8k: choose proper firmware image as directed by user
The mwl8k can operate in AP or STA mode, depending on the
firmware image that is loaded.  By default, STA firmware is
loaded.  Allow the user to override this default mode at
module load time.  This saves an unnecessary firmware reload
for users only interested in AP mode.

Also, the firmware image can be swapped to meet the user's
add_interface request.  For example, suppose the STA
firmware is loaded, no STA interface has been added, and the
user adds an AP interface.  In this case, the AP firmware
will be loaded to meet the request.

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Lennert Buytenhek ee0ddf1865 mwl8k: enable multi-BSS AP operation
As follows:
- GET_HW_SPEC is now responsible for setting
  priv->{ap,sta}_macids_supported, which are bitmasks of supported
  macids for AP and STA mode.  (Typically, STA firmware images will
  support only one macid, #0, in STA mode, and AP firmware images
  will support macids #0-7, in AP mode.)
- Our wiphy ->interfaces_modes is now set based on the non-zero-ness
  of these two bitmasks.
- We main priv->macids_used, a bitmask of which macids are currently
  in use.  ->add_interface() will assign the lowest free macid for
  this interface type as it is created, or bail out if there are no
  more free macids to assign.  ->delete_interface() will mark the
  macid as being free again.

This enables the multi-BSS code added in the previous commits.

Lennert Buytenhek f57ca9c1af mwl8k: prepare for posting per-vif firmware commands
One of the bytes in the mwl8k firmware command header is the 'macid'
byte, which for per-vif commands indicates which of the BSSes this
command is intended for.  (For commands that are not per-vif commands,
this byte can just be 0.)

This patch adds mwl8k_post_pervif_cmd(), which will take the macid
assigned to this interface (to be done in ->add_interface()), copy it
into the command packet macid field, and post the command as usual.

Lennert Buytenhek 8707d02625 mwl8k: handle 5 GHz legacy rate bitmaps in firmware commands
Whenever mac80211 gives us a legacy rate bitmap in the context of the
5 GHz band, we need to remember to shift the bitmap left by 5 positions
before giving it to the firmware, as the firmware follows the bitmap
bit assignment of the 2.4 GHz rate table even if we're on the 5 GHz
band, and the 2.4 GHz rate table includes five non-OFDM rates at the
start that are not valid in the 5 GHz band.

Lennert Buytenhek 854783444b mwl8k: properly set receive status rate index on 5 GHz receive
The mwl8k firmware uses indices into the 2.4 GHz band rate table for
the receive descriptor channel field even if the packet was received
on a 5 GHz channel, while mac80211 expects an index into the 5 GHz
band rate table when packets are received on the 5 GHz band, which
presents a mismatch as the 5 GHz band rate table lacks the five
non-OFDM rates that the 2.4 GHz rate table starts with.

To handle this properly, we need to substract 5 from the rate index
field if the packet was received on a 5 GHz channel (and was not
received at an MCS rate).

Like how TX reclaim is done in a tasklet, move receive processing

avoid having to touch the interrupt mask registers.)

Lennert Buytenhek 1e9f9de3b1 mwl8k: keep TX_DONE interrupt masked while transmit reclaim is running
By making use of the CLEAR_SEL feature of the mwl8k host interface
interrupt controller, we can keep the TX_DONE interrupt source masked
while the transmit reclaim tasklet is running (NAPI style) without
having to touch the interrupt controller's interrupt mask register
when entering or exiting polling mode, and without having to do any
more register reads/writes than we do now.

When CLEAR_SEL is enabled on the TX_DONE interrupt source, reading
the interrupt status register will clear the TX_DONE status bit if
it was set, allowing it to be set again if a new TX_DONE event arrives
while we are running the TX reclaim tasklet, but such a new event will
then not trigger another PCI interrupt until a zero is written to the
TX_DONE interrupt status register bit.

I.e., if we write a zero to the TX_DONE interrupt source bit in the
interrupt status register when the TX reclaim tasklet thinks it's
done, a PCI interrupt will be triggered if a new TX_DONE event arrived
from the hardware between us deciding that there is no more work to do
and re-enabling the TX_DONE interrupt source, thereby avoiding the
classic NAPI poll mode exit race that would otherwise occur.

Lennert Buytenhek 16cec43da5 mwl8k: don't complain about oversized beacons in FINALIZE_JOIN
The FINALIZE_JOIN firmware command only looks at the first couple of
fields in the beacon, and therefore it's not necessary to complain if
the beacon is longer than 128 bytes.

Lennert Buytenhek d1844d7769 mwl8k: don't overwrite mwl8k_vif::bssid until after disassociation
When disassociating, mac80211 zeroes vif->bss_info.bssid before
calling our ->bss_info_changed(), but we need the BSSID to remove the
hardware station database entry for our AP, so we can't clear our
local copy of the BSSID until after we've done that.

Lennert Buytenhek 89b872e2e4 mwl8k: increase firmware loading timeouts
The time between loading the helper image and starting to upload the
main firmware image should be at least 5 ms or so.  We were doing an
msleep(1) before, and 1 ms appears to not be enough in almost all
cases, but building with HZ=100 has always masked this so far.  Bumping
the msleep argument to 5 fixes firmware loading e.g. when HZ=1000.

Some firmware images need more than 200ms to initialize.  Bump the
ready code timeout to 500ms to accommodate for this.

Lennert Buytenhek 7e1112d34a mwl8k: allow more time for transmit rings to drain
Before issuing any firmware commands, we wait for the transmit rings
to drain, to prevent control versus data path synchronization issues.
In some cases, this can end up taking longer than the current hardcoded
limit of 5 seconds, for example if the transmit rings are filled with
packets for a host that has dropped off the air and we end up
retransmitting every pending packet at the lowest rate a couple of
times.

This patch changes mwl8k_tx_wait_empty() to only bail out on timeout
expiry if there was no change in the number of packets pending in the
transmit rings during the waiting period.  If at least one transmit
ring entry was reclaimed while we were waiting, we are apparently still
making progress, and we'll allow waiting for another timeout period.

Lennert Buytenhek 8e9f33f0ce mwl8k: properly report rate on received 40MHz packets
On 8366, bit 6 in the rx descriptor rate field indicates whether the
packet was received on a 20MHz or 40MHz channel, and is not part of
the MCS index.  Handle this properly, which then prevents hitting the
WARN_ON and being dropped in ieee80211_rx().

Lennert Buytenhek ca00930153 mwl8k: fix addr4 zeroing and payload overwrite on DMA header creation
When inserting a DMA header into a packet for transmission,
mwl8k_add_dma_header() would blindly zero the addr4 field, which
is not a good idea if the packet being transmitted is actually a
4-address packet.

Also, if the transmitted packet was a 4-address with QoS packet,
the memmove() to do the needed header reshuffling would inadvertently
overwrite the first two bytes of the packet payload with the QoS field.

This fixes both of these issues.

Lennert Buytenhek 20f09c3df7 mwl8k: prevent corruption of QoS field on receive
Packets exchanged between the mwl8k driver and the firmware always
have a 4-address header without QoS field.  For QoS packets, the QoS
field is passed to/from the firmware via the tx/rx descriptors.

We were handling this correctly on transmit, but not on receive -- if
a QoS packet was received, we would leave garbage in the QoS field in
the packet passed up to the stack, which is Bad(tm).

Also, if the packet received on the air was a 4-address without QoS
packet, we would forget to skb_pull the 2-byte DMA length prefix off.

This patch adds an argument to the ->rxd_process() receive descriptor
operation to retrieve the QoS field from the receive descriptor, and
extends mwl8k_remove_dma_header() to insert this field back into the
packet if the packet received is a QoS packet.  It also fixes
mwl8k_remove_dma_header() to strip off the length prefix in all cases.

Lennert Buytenhek 140eb5e2c1 mwl8k: fix UPDATE_STADB command struct legacy_rates array length
There exist 12 802.11b/g rates, but mwl8k supports two additional
(non-standard) rates, and includes those rates in rate bitmasks and
in its internal rate table that hardware rate indices index.

Commit "mwl8k: report rate and other information for received frames"
added one of the nonstandard rates to the mwl8k_rates table to make
the OFDM rates in the table line up with the rate indices that are
reported in the receive descriptor (so that we can just simply copy
the receive descriptor rate index into ieee80211_rx_status::rate_idx)
and bumped MWL8K_IEEE_LEGACY_DATA_RATES from 12 to 13, but this
screwed up the UPDATE_STADB command struct layout, as it also uses
that define, for its legacy_rates array.

To avoid having to convert rate indices and legacy rate bitmaps (e.g.
ieee80211_bss_conf::basic_rates) between the 12-rate mac80211 format
and the 14-rate mwl8k format, we'll report all 14 rates in our wiphy's
band, but filter out the nonstandard ones e.g. in the case of the
UPDATE_STADB command which only accepts 12 rates.

In the commands that accept 14 rates (SET_AID, SET_RATE), replace the
use of the MWL8K_RATE_INDEX_MAX_ARRAY define in the command struct by
the constant 14, to make it clearer that these commands accept 14 rates.
