8e5f3d0aaa ath5k: add Mesh Point support
This enables draft-802.11s Mesh Point operation.  For that we need mesh
beaconing.  Tested with AR5212/AR5213 PCI card against Zydas and b43 mesh
nodes.

37465c8a3e ath5k: Don't fiddle with MSI on suspend/resume.
Commit 256b152b00 (ath5k: don't enable
MSI, we cannot handle it yet) has removed msi support, but overlooked
the suspend/resume code. This patch completes msi removal.

I don't consider this patch copyrightable, and thus put it into the
public domain. The result is of course a base.c file dual-licensed under
3-clause-BSD and GPL.

d0f0980414 mac80211: partially fix skb->cb use
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.

274c7c3638 Ath5k: flush work
Make sure that the irq is not in progress after stop. This means
two things:
- ensure the intr setting register is set by flushing posted values
- call synchronize_irq() after that

Also flush stop tx write, inform callers of the tx stop about still
pending transfers (unsuccessful stop) and finally don't wait another
3ms in ath5k_rx_stop, since ath5k_hw_stop_rx_dma ensures transfer to
be finished.

Make sure all writes will be ordered in respect to locks by mmiowb().

3a0f2c8718 Ath5k: fix memory corruption
When signal is noisy, hardware can use all RX buffers and since the last
entry in the list is self-linked, it overwrites the entry until we link
new buffers.

Ensure that we don't free this last one until we are 100% sure that it
is not used by the hardware anymore to not cause memory curruption as
can be seen below.

This is done by checking next buffer in the list. Even after that we
know that the hardware refetched the new link and proceeded further
(the next buffer is ready) we can finally free the overwritten buffer.

We discard it since the status in its descriptor is overwritten (OR-ed
by new status) too.

8d8bb39b9e dma-mapping: add the device argument to dma_mapping_error()
Add per-device dma_mapping_ops support for CONFIG_X86_64 as POWER
architecture does:

This enables us to cleanly fix the Calgary IOMMU issue that some devices
are not behind the IOMMU (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/8/423).

I think that per-device dma_mapping_ops support would be also helpful for
KVM people to support PCI passthrough but Andi thinks that this makes it
difficult to support the PCI passthrough (see the above thread).  So I
CC'ed this to KVM camp.  Comments are appreciated.

A pointer to dma_mapping_ops to struct dev_archdata is added.  If the
pointer is non NULL, DMA operations in asm/dma-mapping.h use it.  If it's
NULL, the system-wide dma_ops pointer is used as before.

If it's useful for KVM people, I plan to implement a mechanism to register
a hook called when a new pci (or dma capable) device is created (it works
with hot plugging).  It enables IOMMUs to set up an appropriate
dma_mapping_ops per device.

The major obstacle is that dma_mapping_error doesn't take a pointer to the
device unlike other DMA operations.  So x86 can't have dma_mapping_ops per
device.  Note all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function
so this is not a problem for POWER but x86 IOMMUs use different
dma_mapping_error functions.

The first patch adds the device argument to dma_mapping_error.  The patch
is trivial but large since it touches lots of drivers and dma-mapping.h in
all the architecture.

This patch:

dma_mapping_error() doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA
operations.  So we can't have dma_mapping_ops per device.

Note that POWER already has dma_mapping_ops per device but all the POWER
IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function.  x86 IOMMUs use device
argument.

9d139c810a mac80211: revamp beacon configuration
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.

36d6825b91 mac80211: let drivers wake but not start queues
Having drivers start queues is just confusing, their ->start()
callback can block and do whatever is necessary, so let mac80211
start queues and have drivers wake queues when necessary (to get
packets flowing again right away.)

d6894b5be1 ath5k: Fix loop variable initializations
In ath5k_tasklet_rx, both status structures 'rxs' and 'rs' are
initialized at the top of the tasklet, but not within the loop.
If the loop is executed multiple times in the tasklet then the
variables may see changes from previous packets.

For TKIP, this results in 'Invalid Michael MIC' errors if two packets
are processed in the tasklet: rxs.flag gets set to RX_DECRYPTED by
mac80211 when it decrypts the first encrypted packet.  The subsequent
packet will have RX_DECRYPTED set upon entry to mac80211, so mac80211
will not try to decrypt it.

We currently initialize all but two fields in the structures, so fix
the other two.

566bfe5a8b mac80211: use hardware flags for signal/noise units
trying to clean up the signal/noise code. the previous code in mac80211 had
confusing names for the related variables, did not have much definition of
what units of signal and noise were provided and used implicit mechanisms from
the wireless extensions.

this patch introduces hardware capability flags to let the hardware specify
clearly if it can provide signal and noise level values and which units it can
provide. this also anticipates possible new units like RCPI in the future.

for signal:

  IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_UNSPEC - unspecified, unknown, hw specific
  IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DB     - dB difference to unspecified reference point
  IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DBM    - dBm, difference to 1mW

for noise we currently only have dBm:

  IEEE80211_HW_NOISE_DBM     - dBm, difference to 1mW

if IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_UNSPEC or IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DB is used the driver has
to provide the maximum value (max_signal) it reports in order for applications
to make sense of the signal values.

i tried my best to find out for each driver what it can provide and update it
but i'm not sure (?) for some of them and used the more conservative guess in
doubt. this can be fixed easily after this patch has been merged by changing
the hardware flags of the driver.

1c01442058 mac80211: Replace ieee80211_tx_control->key_idx with ieee80211_key_conf
The hw_key_idx inside the ieee80211_key_conf structure does
not provide all the information drivers might need to perform
hardware encryption.

This is in particular true for rt2x00 who needs to know the
key algorithm and whether it is a shared or pairwise key.

By passing the ieee80211_key_conf pointer it assures us that
drivers can make full use of all information that it should know
about a particular key.

Additionally this patch updates all drivers to grab the hw_key_idx from
the ieee80211_key_conf structure.

v2: Removed bogus u16 cast

6ba81c2c98 ath5k: work around wrong beacon rx timestamp in IBSS mode
atheros hardware has a problem with the rx timestamp of some IBSS beacons when
they caused a TSF update (they have the same BSSID).

the rx timestamp is wrong especially if the beacon frames get bigger than 78
byte (at least on AR5213 and AR5414 hardware). in that case ath5k_extend_tsf()
will assume a rs_tstamp overflow and give us a timestamp too far in the past
which will cause mac80211 to merge IBSS on every beacon (which is not necessary
since the BSSID already matches). but in this case we know that the HW must
have synced to the beacons TSF and the rx timestamp must be later than that so
we can adjust mactime accordingly.

also rename the function to ath5k_check_ibss_tsf() and change comments, since
"hw merge" is better described as a TSF update.

* unify structs ath5k_hw_old_rx_status and ath5k_hw_new_rx_status into one
  ath5k_hw_rx_status, because they only differ in the flags and masks.

400ec45a02 ath5k: Cleanup after API changes
Cleanup after API changes patch (checkpatch.pl stuff) and on
ath5k_hw_channel() make use of the existing ath5k_channel_ok()
instead of re-implementing the checks again. This was necessary
to make the code cleaner and fit the 80-chars wide limit so
sending it within the same patch.

Finally make a note that we *may* eventually move cap_range stuff
to struct wiphy (band frequency range capabilities). This
information can later be exported to userspace, for example,
and giving it access to mac80211 and drivers in general can come
in handy.

Also i figured out a way to process rate vallue found
on status descriptors, it's still buggy but we are getting
closer (i think it improved stability a little).

281c56dd27 ath5k: correct padding in tx descriptors
when setting up the tx descriptors for the hardware we must account for any
padding between the header and the data we might have added previously. frame
len is the length of the frame in the air (including FCS but no padding) and
buffer len is the length of the buffer (including padding, but without FCS).

changing the way ah_setup_tx_desc is called: now excluding the FCS, since it's
easier to add that in the function where we need it.

before this fix we sent trailing zero bytes after the packet (because frame len
included the padding) which was not a big problem without WEP, but with WEP
this resultes in a wrong WEP checksum and the packet is discarded - which is
how i noticed at all ;)

an easy way to run into header padding problems, btw, is to connect to a QoS
(WME) enabled access point (eg. madwifi) - QoS data frames are 2 byte longer
and will require padding.

this patch applies on top of luis latest patch series from 04.02.2008.

be9b72590c ath5k: debug level improvements
* use only one debug level for beacon debugging: unify ATH5K_DEBUG_BEACON and
ATH5K_DEBUG_BEACON_PROC.

* remove debug level ATH5K_DEBUG_FATAL. doesn't make sense as a debug level -
if it's fatal it should be logged as an error.

* fancier printing of debug levels. cat /debugfs/ath5k/phy0/debug.

* allow debug levels to be changed by echoing their name into
/debugfs/ath5k/phy0/debug. this will toggle the state, when it was off it will
be turned on and vice versa.

* use copy_from_user() when reading from the debug files. use unsigned int for
better optimization. reduce buffer sizes on stack.

6d91e1d808 ath5k: configure backoff for IBSS beacon queue
in "11.1.2.2 Beacon generation in an IBSS" the IEEE802.11 standard says, each
STA should... "b) Calculate a random delay uniformly distributed in the range
between zero and twice aCWmin × aSlotTime,".

configure cwmin and cwmax of the beacon queue in IBSS mode according to this.
unfortunately beacon backoff does not work reliably yet, so i suspect we have a
problem somewhere else, since the same settings (and similar beacon timer
configuration) work for madwifi.

036cd1ec03 ath5k: use SWBA to detect IBSS HW merges
use SWBA (software beacon alert) interrupts to keep track of the next beacon
time und check if a HW merge (automatic TSF update) has happened on every
received beacon with the same BSSID.

this is necessary because the atheros hardware will silently update the local
TSF in IBSS mode, but not its beacon timers. if the TSF is ahead of the beacon
timers no beacons are sent until the timers wrap around (typically after about
1 minute).

this solution is not very nice, since we have to look into every beacon, but
there is apparently no other way to detect HW merges.

9804b98d57 ath5k: better beacon timer calculation
update ath5k_beacon_update_timers() for better beacon timer calculation in a
variety of situations. most important is the possibility to call it with the
timestamp of a received beacon, when we detected that a HW merge has happened
and we need to reconfigure the beacon timers based on that.

we call this from the mac80211 callback reset_tsf now instead of beacon_update,
and there will be more use of it in the next patch.

132127e505 ath5k: Fix frame duration oops
This patch fixes an oops which was introduced as a regression by
commit fd640775bd16e1df50c867cc547af0, on the patch titled,
"mac80211: dont use interface indices in drivers".

ieee80211_generic_frame_duration() now relies on sdata->flags which
itself gets set upon bringing the interface up. We check for the
virtual interface now before setting the rate duration registers.

After the mode changes are introduced onto mac80211 we should revisit
these changes.

This patch was tested on the following cards:

1) BG card:

Atheros AR5213A chip found (MAC: 0x59, PHY: 0x43)
RF2112A 2GHz radio found (0x46)

2) ABG card:

Atheros AR5213A chip found (MAC: 0x59,PHY: 0x43)

32bfd35d4b mac80211: dont use interface indices in drivers
This patch gets rid of the if_id stuff where possible in favour of
a new per-virtual-interface structure "struct ieee80211_vif". This
structure is located at the end of the per-interface structure and
contains a variable length driver-use data area.

This has two advantages:
 * removes the need to look up interfaces by if_id, this is better
   for working with network namespaces and performance
 * allows drivers to store and retrieve per-interface data without
   having to allocate own lists/hash tables
