13 years agoath9k: rework tx queue selection and fix queue stopping/waking
Felix Fietkau [Sun, 7 Nov 2010 13:59:39 +0000 (14:59 +0100)]
ath9k: rework tx queue selection and fix queue stopping/waking

The current ath9k tx queue handling code showed a few issues that could
lead to locking issues, tx stalls due to stopped queues, and maybe even
DMA issues.

The main source of these issues is that in some places the queue is
selected via skb queue mapping in places where this mapping may no
longer be valid. One such place is when data frames are transmitted via
the CAB queue (for powersave buffered frames). This is made even worse
by a lookup WMM AC values from the assigned tx queue (which is
undefined for the CAB queue).

This messed up the pending frame counting, which in turn caused issues
with queues getting stopped, but not woken again.

To fix these issues, this patch removes an unnecessary abstraction
separating a driver internal queue number from the skb queue number
(not to be confused with the hardware queue number).

It seems that this abstraction may have been necessary because of tx
queue preinitialization from the initvals. This patch avoids breakage
here by pushing the software <-> hardware queue mapping to the function
that assigns the tx queues and redefining the WMM AC definitions to
match the numbers used by mac80211 (also affects ath9k_htc).

To ensure consistency wrt. pending frame count tracking, these counters
are moved to the ath_txq struct, updated with the txq lock held, but
only where the tx queue selected by the skb queue map actually matches
the tx queue used by the driver for the frame.

welcomed and should be respected unless the regulatory hint is coming
from a country IE as the IEEE spec allows for a country IE to be a subset
of what is allowed by the local regulatory agencies.

So disable all channels that do not fit a regulatory domain sent
from a unless the hint is from a country IE and the country IE had
no information about the band we are currently processing.

This fixes a few regulatory issues, for example for drivers that depend
on CRDA and had no 5 GHz freqencies allowed were not properly disabling
5 GHz at all, furthermore it also allows users to restrict devices
further as was intended.

If you recieve a country IE upon association we will also disable the
channels that are not allowed if the country IE had at least one
channel on the respective band we are procesing.

This was the original intention behind this design but it was

ath9k: Remove the median function in rate control

With the current rate control selection method the median function is
nowhere used, so remove it.

ath9k_hw: optimize all descriptor access functions

Because all of the descriptor data structures are marked as __packed, GCC
assumes the worst case wrt. alignment and generates unaligned load/store
instructions on MIPS for access to all fields.
Since descriptors always have to be 4-byte-aligned, we can just mark the
data structures with __aligned(4), which allows GCC to generate much more
efficient code.
Verified through disassembly and OProfile comparisons.
