rt2x00: fix random stalls

2012-03-19T15:57:44+00:00

commit 3780d038fdf4b5ef26ead10b0604ab1f46dd9510 upstream. Is possible that we stop queue and then do not wake up it again, especially when packets are transmitted fast. That can be easily reproduced with modified tx queue entry_num to some small value e.g. 16. If mac80211 already hold local->queue_stop_reason_lock, then we can wait on that lock in both rt2x00queue_pause_queue() and rt2x00queue_unpause_queue(). After drooping ->queue_stop_reason_lock is possible that __ieee80211_wake_queue() will be performed before __ieee80211_stop_queue(), hence we stop queue and newer wake up it again. Another race condition is possible when between rt2x00queue_threshold() check and rt2x00queue_pause_queue() we will process all pending tx buffers on different cpu. This might happen if for example interrupt will be triggered on cpu performing rt2x00mac_tx(). To prevent race conditions serialize pause/unpause by queue->tx_lock.

rt2800pci: fix spurious interrupts generation

2012-01-26T01:25:02+00:00

commit dfd00c4c8f3dfa1fd7cec45f83d98b2a49743dcd upstream. Same devices can generate interrupt without properly setting bit in INT_SOURCE_CSR register (spurious interrupt), what will cause IRQ line will be disabled by interrupts controller driver. We discovered that clearing INT_MASK_CSR stops such behaviour. We previously first read that register, and then clear all know interrupt sources bits and do not touch reserved bits. After this patch, we write to all register content (I believe writing to reserved bits on that register will not cause any problems, I tested that on my rt2800pci device). This fix very bad performance problem, practically making device unusable (since worked without interrupts), reported in: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=658451 We previously tried to workaround that issue in commit 4ba7d9997869d25bd223dea7536fc1ce9fab3b3b "rt2800pci: handle spurious interrupts", but it was reverted in commit 82e5fc2a34fa9ffea38f00c4066b7e600a0ca5e6 as thing, that will prevent to detect real spurious interrupts.

rt2800usb: Move ID out of unknown

2012-01-12T19:34:58+00:00

commit 3f81f8f1524ccca24df1029b0cf825ecef5e5cdc upstream. Testing on the openSUSE wireless forum has shown that a Linksys WUSB54GC v3 with USB ID 1737:0077 works with rt2800usb when the ID is written to /sys/.../new_id. This ID can therefore be moved out of UNKNOWN. Signed-off-by: Larry Finger Acked-by: Gertjan van Wingerde Acked-by: Ivo van Doorn Signed-off-by: John W. Linville Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

rt2x00: Fix sleep-while-atomic bug in powersaving code.

2011-11-26T17:09:54+00:00

commit ed66ba472a742cd8df37d7072804b2111cdb1014 upstream. The generic powersaving code that determines after reception of a frame whether the device should go back to sleep or whether is could stay awake was calling rt2x00lib_config directly from RX tasklet context. On a number of the devices this call can actually sleep, due to having to confirm that the sleeping commands have been executed successfully. Fix this by moving the call to rt2x00lib_config to a workqueue call.

rt2x00: Serialize TX operations on a queue.

2011-10-16T21:14:53+00:00

commit 77a861c405da75d81e9e6e32c50eb7f9777777e8 upstream. The rt2x00 driver gets frequent occurrences of the following error message when operating under load: phy0 -> rt2x00queue_write_tx_frame: Error - Arrived at non-free entry in the non-full queue 2. This is caused by simultaneous attempts from mac80211 to send a frame via rt2x00, which are not properly serialized inside rt2x00queue_write_tx_frame, causing the second frame to fail sending with the above mentioned error message. Fix this by introducing a per-queue spinlock to serialize the TX operations on that queue.

rtl2800usb: Fix incorrect storage of MAC address on big-endian platforms

commit daabead1c32f331edcfb255fd973411c667977e8 upstream. The eeprom data is stored in little-endian order in the rt2x00 library. As it was converted to cpu order in the read routines, the data need to be converted to LE on a big-endian platform. Signed-off-by: Larry Finger Signed-off-by: John W.
