0866b03c7d b43/b43legacy: Wake queues in wireless_core_start
If b43 or b43legacy are deauthenticated or disconnected, there is a
possibility that a reconnection is tried with the queues stopped in
mac80211. To prevent this, start the queues before setting
STAT_INITIALIZED.

In b43, a similar change has been in place (twice) in the
wireless_core_init() routine. Remove the duplicate and add similar
code to b43legacy.

690680360c mac80211_hwsim: add fake hw scan handler
For debugging hardware scan trigger/complete
functionality, it was useful to have code in
hwsim that pretends to do a hardware scan.

This code could be extended to actually do the
scan, but for now it was sufficient for me to
only pretend. Since hwsim was written to ease
debugging, it only makes sense to add it to it
permanently.

b6c3f5be7c b43: Fix throughput regression
Commit c7ab5ef9bc entitled "b43: implement
short slot and basic rate handling" reduced the transmit throughput for
my BCM4311 device from 18 Mb/s to 0.7 Mb/s. The basic rate handling
portion is OK, the problem is in the short slot handling.

Prior to this change, the short slot enable/disable routines were never
called. Experimentation showed that the critical part was changing the
value at offset 0x0010 in the shared memory. This is supposed to contain
the 802.11 Slot Time in usec, but if it is changed from its initial value
of zero, performance is destroyed. On the other hand, changing the value
in the MMIO register corresponding to the Interframe Slot Time increased
performance from 18 to 22 Mb/s. A BCM4306/3 also shows dramatic
improvement of the transmit rate from 5.3 to 19.0 Mb/s.

Other changes in the patch include removal of the magic number for the
MMIO register, and allowing the slot time to be set for any PHY operating
in the 2.4 GHz band. Previously, the routine was executed only for G PHYs.

96869a3939 b43: Workaround circular locking in hw-tkip key update callback
The TKIP key update callback is called from the RX path, where the driver
mutex is already locked. This results in a circular locking bug.
Avoid this by removing the lock.

Johannes noted that there is a separate bug: The callback still breaks on SDIO
hardware, because SDIO hardware access needs to sleep, but we are not allowed
to sleep in the callback due to mac80211's RCU locking.

ff27fabe62 iwlwifi: fix throughput degradation in aggregation mode
The following commit

	commit e4da8c37af
	Author: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net>
	Date:   Wed Dec 23 13:15:43 2009 +0100

	   mac80211: make off-channel work generic

triggered a bug in iwlwifi where HT parameters would not be correctly set in
some mac80211 pathways. The aggregation (and possibly other) station flags were
not being set, which limited the size of aggregation blocks and reduced
throughput at high rates.

>From Johannes:
"""
Due to Wey-Yi's patch to use the set-channel command when the channel changes
while associated, we don't get a full new RXON. Therefore, we don't re-set the
rxon-station either. However, under some circumstances that apparently have
gotten more likely mac80211 will first set up the BSS info, then add the
station and then switch to an HT channel type.

Therefore, the check for "priv->current_ht_config.is_ht" in
iwl_rxon_add_station() will hit false and not fill in the HT information.

However, that check can just be removed, which is the easiest fix for all this,
because the HT capa struct is always there, just could possibly have the
ht_supported member set to false.
"""

A sample good link in my 3x3 network improves by approximately 25% TCP
throughput. This fixes Bug 2144

81963d6857 iwlwifi: cleanup spectrum measurement command support
In iwlagn the support for spectrum measurement command has been
disabled since v2.6.29 without any requests for it. In addition to this
when this command is indeed enabled it has been found to trigger firmware
SYSASSERT on at least 4965 and 5100 hardware (see
http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1952 ). Since then
this code has been bitrotting and cannot just be enabled without porting.

Remove support for spectrum measurement command from iwlagn. It can be
added back if there is a future need and the firmware problem it triggers
has been fixed. Support for the spectrim measurement notification remains
as it has been enabled all the time.

In addition to this remove the 3945 spectrum measurement command Kconfig
option and make this command always supported. The code added by this
enabling is minimal and only run when user triggers a spectrum measurement
request via sysfs.
