The mac80211 workqueue exists to enable mac80211 and drivers
to queue their own work on a single threaded workqueue. mac80211
takes care to flush the workqueue during suspend but we never
really had requirements on drivers for how they should use
the workqueue in consideration for suspend.
We extend mac80211 to document how the mac80211 workqueue should
be used, how it should not be used and finally move raw access to
the workqueue to mac80211 only. Drivers and mac80211 use helpers
to queue work onto the mac80211 workqueue:
* ieee80211_queue_work()
* ieee80211_queue_delayed_work()
These helpers will now warn if mac80211 already completed its
suspend cycle and someone is trying to queue work. mac80211
flushes the mac80211 workqueue prior to suspend a few times,
but we haven't taken the care to ensure drivers won't add more
work after suspend. To help with this we add a warning when
someone tries to add work and mac80211 already completed the
suspend cycle.
Drivers should ensure they cancel any work or delayed work
in the mac80211 stop() callback.

As shown in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.wireless.general/36497,
mac80211 has a bug that allows a call to the TX routine after the queues have
been stopped. This situation will only occur under extreme stress. Although
b43 does not crash when this condition occurs, it does generate a WARN_ON and
also logs a queue overrun message. This patch recognizes b43 is not at fault
and logs a message only when the most verbose debugging mode is enabled. In
the unlikely event that the queue is not stopped when the DMA queue becomes
full, then a warning is issued.
During testing of this patch with one output stream running repeated tcpperf
writes and a second running a flood ping, this routine was entered with
the DMA ring stopped about once per hour. The condition where the DMA queue is
full but the ring has not been stopped has never been seen by me.

Within mac80211, we often need to copy the rx status into

drivers are expected to pass the RX status in skb->cb, now
accessible as IEEE80211_SKB_RXCB(skb). It also updates all
drivers to pass the rx status in there, but only by making
them memcpy() it into place before the call to the receive
function (ieee80211_rx(_irqsafe)). Each driver can now be

This patch completely rewrites the rfkill core to address
the following deficiencies:
* all rfkill drivers need to implement polling where necessary
rather than having one central implementation
* updating the rfkill state cannot be done from arbitrary
contexts, forcing drivers to use schedule_work and requiring
lots of code
* rfkill drivers need to keep track of soft/hard blocked
internally -- the core should do this
* the rfkill API has many unexpected quirks, for example being
asymmetric wrt. alloc/free and register/unregister
* rfkill can call back into a driver from within a function the
driver called -- this is prone to deadlocks and generally
should be avoided
* rfkill-input pointlessly is a separate module
* drivers need to #ifdef rfkill functions (unless they want to
depend on or select RFKILL) -- rfkill should provide inlines
that do nothing if it isn't compiled in
* the rfkill structure is not opaque -- drivers need to initialise
it correctly (lots of sanity checking code required) -- instead
force drivers to pass the right variables to rfkill_alloc()
* the documentation is hard to read because it always assumes the
reader is completely clueless and contains way TOO MANY CAPS
* the rfkill code needlessly uses a lot of locks and atomic
operations in locked sections
* fix LED trigger to actually change the LED when the radio state
changes -- this wasn't done before

We currently have two beacon interval configuration knobs:
hw.conf.beacon_int and vif.bss_info.beacon_int. This is
rather confusing, even though the former is used when we
beacon ourselves and the latter when we are associated to
an AP.
This just deprecates the hw.conf.beacon_int setting in favour
of always using vif.bss_info.beacon_int. Since it touches all
the beaconing IBSS code anyway, we can also add support for
the cfg80211 IBSS beacon interval configuration easily.
NOTE: The hw.conf.beacon_int setting is retained for now due
to drivers still using it -- I couldn't untangle all
drivers, some are updated in this patch.

This patch adds poisoning and sanity checking to the RX DMA buffers.
This is used for protection against buggy hardware/firmware that raises
RX interrupts without doing an actual DMA transfer.
This mechanism protects against rare "bad packets" (due to uninitialized skb data)
and rare kernel crashes due to uninitialized RX headers.
The poison is selected to not match on valid frames and to be cheap for checking.
The poison check mechanism _might_ trigger incorrectly, if we are voluntarily
receiving frames with bad PLCP headers. However, this is nonfatal, because the
chance of such a match is basically zero and in case it happens it just results
in dropping the packet.
Bad-PLCP RX defaults to off, and you should leave it off unless you want to listen
to the latest news broadcasted by your microwave oven.
This patch also moves the initialization of the RX-header "length" field in front of
the mapping of the DMA buffer. The CPU should not touch the buffer after we mapped it.

This masks the PHY TX error interrupt, if debugging is disabled.
Currently we have a bug somewhere which triggers this interrupt once
in a while. (Depends on the network noise/quality). While this is nonfatal,
it scares the hell out of users and we frequently receive bugreports
that incorrectly identify this error message as the reason.
There's another problem with this. The PHY TX error interrupt is protected
with a watchdog that will restart the device if it keeps triggering very often.
This is used to fix interrupt storms from completely broken devices.
However, this watchdog might trigger in completely normal operation.
If the TX capacity of the card is saturated, the likeliness of the watchdog
triggering increases, as more TX errors occur. The current threshold
for the watchdog is 1000 errors in 15 seconds.
This patch adds a workaround for the issue by just enabling the interrupt
if debugging is disabled (by Kconfig or by modparam).
This has the downside that real fatal PHY TX errors are not caught anymore.
But this is nonfatal due to the following reasons:
* If the card is not able to transmit anymore, MLME will notice anyway.
* I did _never_ see a real fatal PHY TX error in a mainline b43 driver.
* It does _not_ result in interrupt storms or something like that.
It will simply result in a stalled card. It can be debugged by enabling
the debugging module parameter.

In the old days we used one slot per frame. But when we changed that to 2,
we didn't raise the overall slot count. Which resulted in an effective
division of two to the number of slots.
Double the number of TX slots, so we have an effective hardware queue
of 128 frames per QoS queue.
Also optimize the TX header cache handling. We don't need a cached TX header
for slots that will never carry an actual header.
So we reduce the memory consumption of the cache by 50%.
So as a net result we end up with more or less the same memory usage before
and after this patch (except a few tiny meta structures), but have twice
the number of TX slots available.
