5b0a3b7eb3 net/wireless: use module_pci_driver
This patch converts the drivers in drivers/net/wireless/* to use
module_pci_driver() macro which makes the code smaller and a bit simpler.

abc1199411 rt2x00: Fix PCI interrupt processing race on SMP systems
When toggle_irq is called for PCI devices to disable device interrupts
it used tasklet_disable to wait for a possibly running tasklet to finish.
However, on SMP systems the tasklet might still be scheduled on another CPU.
Instead, use tasklet_kill to ensure that all scheduled tasklets are finished
before returning from toggle_irq.

Furthermore, it was possible that a tasklet reenabled its interrupt even
though interrupts have been disabled already. Fix this by checking the
DEVICE_STATE_ENABLED_RADIO flag before reenabling single interrupts
during tasklet processing.

While at it also enable/kill the TBTT and PRETBTT tasklets in the
toggle_irq callback and only use tasklet_kill in stop_queue to wait
for a currently scheduled beacon update before returning.

5f0dd296a0 rt2x00: Implement tx_frames_pending mac80211 callback function.
Implementing this callback function will cause mac80211 refrain from
going to powersave state when there are still untransmitted TX frames
in the queues.
This would exactly mimic the behaviour of the legacy vendor driver which
also doesn't go in powersave mode if there are still TX frames that are not
transmitted.
This should make powersaving and rt2x00 a better couple.

0ed7b3c044 rt2x00: Implement get_antenna and set_antenna callback functions
Implement the get_antenna and set_antenna callback functions, which will
allow clients to control the antenna for all non-11n hardware (Antenna handling
in rt2800 is still a bit magical, so we can't use the set_antenna for those drivers
yet).

To best support the set_antenna callback some modifications are needed in the
diversity handling. We should never look at the default antenna settings to determine
if software diversity is enabled. Instead we should set the diversity flag when
possible, which will allow the link_tuner to automatically pick up the tuning.

e01ae27f8c rt2x00: Allow dynamic addition of PCI/USB IDs.
Both USB and PCI drivers allow a system administrator to dynamically add
USB/PCI IDs to the device table that a driver supports via the
/sys/bus/{usb,pci,pci_express}/drivers/<driver-name>/new_id files.

However, for the rt2x00 drivers using this method currently crashes the
system with a NULL pointer failure.

This is due to the set-up of rt2x00 where the probe functions require a
rt2x00_ops structure in the driver_info field of the probed device. As
this field is empty for the dynamically added devices this fails for
these devices.

Fix this by introducing driver-specific probe wrappers that do nothing
but calling the bus-specific probe functions with the rt2x00_ops structure
as an argument, rather than depending on the driver_info field.

7a5a681a7d rt2x00: Always inline rt2x00pci_enable_interrupt
This allows the compiler to perform the necessary bitfield calculations
during compile time instead of run time and thus reduces the number of

performance in the RX hotpath.

This comes at the cost of a slight increase in the module size (for
example rt2800pci):

152a599274 rt2x00: Decrease association time for USB devices
When powersaving is enabled, assocaition times are very high
(for WPA2 networks, the time can easily be around the 3 seconds).

This is caused, because the flushing of the queues takes
too much time. Without the flushing callback mac80211 assumes
a timeout of 100ms while scanning. Limit all flush waiting
loops to the same maximum.

We can apply this maximum by passing the drop status to the
driver, which makes sure the driver performs extra actions
during the waiting for the queue to become empty.

After these changes, association times fall within the
healthy range of ~0.6 seconds with powersaving enabled.
The difference between association time between powersaving
enabled and disabled is now only ~0.1 second (which can also
be due to the measuring method).

7dab73b37f rt2x00: Split rt2x00dev->flags
The number of flags defined for the rt2x00dev->flags field,
has been growing over the years. Currently we are approaching
the maximum number of bits which are available in the field.

A secondary problem, is that one part of the field are initialized only
during boot, because the driver requirements are initialized or device
requirements are loaded from the EEPROM. In both cases, the flags are
fixed and will not change during device operation. The other flags are
the device state, and will change frequently. So far this resulted in the fact
that for some flags, the atomic bit accessors are used, while for the others
the non-atomic variants are used.

By splitting the flags up into a "flags" and "cap_flags" we can put all flags
which are fixed inside "cap_flags". This field can then be read non-atomically.
In the "flags" field we keep the device state, which is going to be read atomically.

This adds more room for more flags in the future, and sanitizes the field access methods.

bcf3cfd047 rt2x00: Convert rt2400pci interrupt handling to use tasklets
Fix interrupt processing on slow machines by using individual tasklets
for each different device interrupt. This ensures that while a RX or TX
status tasklet is scheduled only the according device interrupt is
masked and other interrupts such as TBTT can still be processed.

Also, this allows us to use tasklet_hi_schedule for TBTT processing
which is required to not send out beacons with a wrong DTIM count (due
to delayed periodic beacon updates). Furthermore, this improves the
latency between the TBTT and sending out buffered multi- and broadcast
traffic.

As a nice bonus, the interrupt handling overhead should be much lower.

Compile-tested only.

69cf36a452 rt2x00: Refactor beacon code to make use of start- and stop_queue
This patch allows to dynamically remove beaconing interfaces without
shutting beaconing down on all interfaces.

The only place to start and stop beaconing are now the start- and
stop_queue callbacks. Hence, we can remove some register writes during
interface bring up (config_intf) and only write the correct sync mode
to the register there.

When multiple beaconing interfaces are present we should enable
beaconing as soon as mac80211 enables beaconing on at least one of
them. The beacon queue gets stopped when the last beaconing
interface was stopped by mac80211. Therefore, introduce another
interface counter to keep track ot the number of enabled beaconing
interfaces and start or stop the beacon queue accordingly.

To allow single interfaces to stop beaconing, add a new driver
callback clear_beacon to clear a single interface's beacon without
affecting the other interfaces. Don't overload the clear_entry callback
for clearing beacons as that would introduce additional overhead
(check for each TX queue) into the clear_entry callback which is used
on the drivers TX/RX hotpaths.

Furthermore, the write beacon callback doesn't need to enable beaconing
anymore but since beaconing should be disabled while a new beacon is
written or cleared we still disable beacon generation and enable it
afterwards again in the driver specific callbacks. However, beacon
related interrupts should not be disabled/enabled here, that's solely
done from the start- and stop queue callbacks. It would be nice to stop
the beacon queue just before the beacon update and enable it afterwards
in rt2x00queue itself instead of the current implementation that relies
on the driver doing the right thing. However, since start- and
stop_queue are mutex protected we cannot use them for atomic beacon
updates.

 - Start: will enable a queue, for TX this will

 - Kick: This will kick all pending frames to
   the hardware. This is needed for the TX queue
   to push all frames to the HW after the queue
   has been started
 - Stop: This will stop the queue in the hardware,
   and cancel any pending work (So this doesn't
   mean the queue is empty after a stop!).

Move all code from the drivers into the appropriate
functions, and link those calls to the old rt2x00lib
callback functions (we will fix this later when we
refactor the queue control inside rt2x00lib).

mode.

Fix this by not cleaning up the beacon interval when killing the beacon queue
but just prevent the device from sending out beacons.

0204464329 rt2x00: Check for specific changed flags when updating the erp config
Previously rt2x00 was always updating all erp related config variables
even though mac80211 might only have changed one. Hence, pass the
changed flags to the config_erp driver callback so that the driver
can limit the changes to the correct values.

This fixes an issue in AP mode where the beacon interval is not
initialized (and thus zero) but still sent to the hardware causing an
interrupt storm on rt2800pci hanging the system.

8d1331b37d rt2x00: Fix max TX power settings
During initialization each driver reads the default TX power
for each individual channel. However mac80211 only accepts the
maximum value (which is also handled as default value).

As a result, the TX power of the device was being limited to
the default value, which is often quite low compared to the
real maximum acceptable value.

This patch allows each driver to set the maximum value on a
per-channel basis which is forwarded to mac80211. The default
value will be preserved for now, in case we want to update
mac80211 to differentiate between the maximum and default txpower.

This fixes bug complaining about limited TX power values like:

933314582e rt2x00: Simplify arguments to rt2x00 driver callback functions
write_tx_desc shouldn't pass a rt2x00dev and skb pointer,
instead it should use the same format as other TX frame
callback functions, which is passing the data_entry pointer
which contains all the information which is needed to work
on a TX frame.

Most callers of the kick_tx_queue and kill_tx_queue already
have the data_queue pointer, so rather then sending the QID
with the given function, when the driver requests a new
pointer to the data_queue, it is more efficient to just
send the data_queue pointer directly.

These changes may be slightly safer in some instances.

There are other kzalloc calls with a multiply, but those
calls are typically "small fixed #" * sizeof(some pointer)"
and those are not converted.

ab0ed4aba8 rt2x00: Remove set_tim callback from PCI drivers
Using the set_tim callback without managing the DTIM count and the
broad- and multicast buffering in hw, fw or the driver results in wrong
DTIM count values being sent out in beacons. Since all PCI drivers
fetch new beacons periodically and hence get an updated TIM we can just
remove the set_tim callback from these.

The rt2x00 USB drivers don't update the beacon periodically and thus
rely on the set_tim callback to get a correct TIM for beacon
transmission. USB devices still suffer from the DTIM count being wrong
under some circumstances but removing the set_tim callback from these
would cause more harm then good.

78e256c9a3 rt2x00: Convert rt2x00 to use threaded interrupts
Use threaded interrupts for all rt2x00 PCI devices.

This has several generic advantages:
- Reduce the time we spend in hard irq context
- Use non-atmic mac80211 functions for rx/tx

Furthermore implementing broad- and multicast buffering will be
much easier in process context while maintaining low latency and
updating the beacon just before transmission (pre tbtt interrupt)
can also be done in process context.

223dcc2659 rt2x00: Fix vgc_level_reg handling
Currently vgc_level_reg and vgc_level are equal to eachother,
while the purpose of vgc_level_reg is the value last written
to the register and is remembered through link tuning resets.
The vgc_level is the currently active level, which is
reset during link tuning resets.

The usage of these variables depends on the drivers, some drivers
need both, while others need only one of the two.

Rename CONFIG_DISABLE_LINK_TUNING to DRIVER_SUPPORT_LINK_TUNING
Link tuning support is not only based on EEPROM decisions, but
also if the device actually supports it.

Currently only rt2500usb doesn't support link tuning because
of hardware problems. But rt2800usb is also suspected of having
problems with link tuning.

The handling of tx descriptors for beacons can be simplified by updating
write_tx_desc implementations of each driver to write directly to the
queue entry descriptor instead of to a provided memory area.
This is also a preparation for further clean ups where descriptors are
properly reserved in the skb instead of fiddling with the skb data
pointer.
