14 years agomac80211: Add interface for driver to temporarily disable dynamic ps
Juuso Oikarinen [Mon, 21 Jun 2010 05:59:39 +0000 (08:59 +0300)]
mac80211: Add interface for driver to temporarily disable dynamic ps

This mechanism introduced in this patch applies (at least) for hardware
designs using a single shared antenna for both WLAN and BT. In these designs,
the antenna must be toggled between WLAN and BT.

In those hardware, managing WLAN co-existence with Bluetooth requires WLAN
full power save whenever there is Bluetooth activity in order for WLAN to be
able to periodically relinquish the antenna to be used for BT. This is because
BT can only access the shared antenna when WLAN is idle or asleep.

Some hardware, for instance the wl1271, are able to indicate to the host
whenever there is BT traffic. In essence, the hardware will send an indication
to the host whenever there is, for example, SCO traffic or A2DP traffic, and
will send another indication when the traffic is over.

The hardware gets information of Bluetooth traffic via hardware co-existence
control lines - these lines are used to negotiate the shared antenna
ownership. The hardware will give the antenna to BT whenever WLAN is sleeping.

This patch adds the interface to mac80211 to facilitate temporarily disabling
of dynamic power save as per request of the WLAN driver. This interface will
immediately force WLAN to full powersave, hence allowing BT coexistence as
described above.

In these kind of shared antenna desings, when WLAN powersave is fully disabled,
Bluetooth will not work simultaneously with WLAN at all. This patch does not
address that problem. This interface will not change PSM state, so if PSM is
disabled it will remain so. Solving this problem requires knowledge about BT
state, and is best done in user-space.

14 years agort2x00: Fix TX_STA_FIFO handling
Helmut Schaa [Mon, 14 Jun 2010 20:11:09 +0000 (22:11 +0200)]
rt2x00: Fix TX_STA_FIFO handling

Currently rt2800pci will read TX_STA_FIFO until the previously read value
matches the current value. However, it is obvious that TX_STA_FIFO only
contains values that can easily be the same for multiple consecutive frames
(especially when communicating with only one other STA). Hence, we often
ended up with reading only the first entry and ignoring the rest.

One result was that when the TX_STA_FIFO contained multiple entires, only
the first one was read and properly handled while the others remained in the
tx queue.

Thus, drop this check but introduce a maximum number of reads. All legacy
drivers use the size of the tx ring as limit but state that the TX_STA_FIFO
has only 16 entries. So, let's just stick with the tx ring size for now.

mac80211: Fix ps-qos network latency handling

The ps-qos latency handling is broken. It uses predetermined latency values
to select specific dynamic PS timeouts. With common AP configurations, these
values overlap with beacon interval and are therefore essentially useless
(for network latencies less than the beacon interval, PSM is disabled.)

This patch remedies the problem by replacing the predetermined network latency
values with one high value (1900ms) which is used to go trigger full psm. For
backwards compatibility, the value 2000ms is still mapped to a dynamic ps
timeout of 100ms.

Currently also the mac80211 internal value for storing user space configured
dynamic PSM values is incorrectly in the driver visible ieee80211_conf struct.
Move it to the ieee80211_local struct.
