Bob Copeland 063279062a ath5k: honor FIF_BCN_PRBRESP_PROMISC in STA mode
We were setting RX_FILTER_BEACON even after entering STA mode,
which leads to a lot of unnecessary wakeups.  This should fix the
bug "Ath5k driver has too many interrupts per second at idle" at
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11749.

Elias Oltmanns bc1b32d6bd ath5k: Reset key cache on interface up, thus fixing resume
After a s2ram / resume cycle, resetting the key cache does not work
unless it is deferred until after the hardware has been reinitialised by
a call to ath5k_hw_reset(). This fixes a regression introduced by
"ath5k: fix suspend-related oops on rmmod".

Bob Copeland 8bdd5b9c6b ath5k: fix suspend-related oops on rmmod
Based on a patch by Elias Oltmanns, we call ath5k_init in resume even
if we didn't previously open the device.  Besides starting up the
device unnecessarily, this also causes an oops on rmmod because
mac80211 will not invoke ath5k_stop and softirqs are left running after
the module has been unloaded.  Add a new state bit, ATH_STAT_STARTED,
to indicate that we have been started up.

Felix Fietkau 2f7fe87034 ath5k: implement multi-rate retry support, fix tx status reporting
Clean up the tx status reporting, fix retry counters (short retries are
virtual collisions, not actual retries). Implement multi-rate retry
support.
This also fixes strong throughput fluctuations with rc80211_pid

* Update registers

 * Prepare ath5k.h for newer radios etc

 Thanks to Atheros 's HAL source we now know for sure how many parts we have
 and what their SREV values are. We also have some updates on registers. Prepare
 ath5k for some major updates ;-)

 My previous mail had 2 more patches following (git log misusage), sorry for double

There's really no reason for mac80211 to be using its

Luis R. Rodriguez f59ac04816 cfg80211: keep track of supported interface modes
It is obviously good for userspace to know up front which
interface modes a given piece of hardware might support (even
if adding such an interface might fail later because of
concurrency issues), so let's make cfg80211 aware of that.
For good measure, disallow adding interfaces in all other
modes so drivers don't forget to announce support for one mode
when they add it.

Nick Kossifidis c6e387a214 ath5k: HW code cleanup
* No code changes...

 * Split hw.c to multiple files for better maintenance and add some documentation on each file
   code is going to grow soon (eeprom.c for example is going to get much stuff currently developed
   on ath_info) so it's better this way.

 * Rename following functions to maintain naming scheme:

     ah_setup_xtx_desc -> ah_setup_mrr_tx_desc
     (Because xtx doesn't say much, it's actually
     a multi-rate-retry tx descriptor)

     ath5k_hw_put_tx/rx_buf - > ath5k_hw_set_tx/rxdp
     ath5k_hw_get_tx/rx_buf -> ath5k_hw_get_tx/rxdp
     (We don't put any "buf" we set descriptor pointers on hw)

     ath5k_hw_tx_start -> ath5k_hw_start_tx_dma
     ath5k_hw_start_rx -> ath5k_hw_start_rx_dma
     ath5k_hw_stop_pcu_recv -> ath5k_hw_stop_rx_pcu
     (It's easier this way to identify them, we also
     have ath5k_hw_start_rx_pcu which completes the
     set)

     ath5k_hw_set_intr -> ath5k_hw_set_imr
     (As in get_isr we set imr here, not "intr")

  * Move ath5k_hw_setup_rx_desc on ah->ah_setup_rx_desc so we can
    include support for different rx descriptors in the future

  * Further cleanups so that checkpatch doesn't complain
    (only some > 80 col warnings for eeprom.h and reg.h as usual
    due to comments)

  Tested on 5211 and 5213 cards and works ok.

Harvey Harrison 798ee9850e ath5k: explicitly check skb->len
ieee80211_get_hdrlen_from_skb internally checks that the skb is long
enough to hold the full header, or it returns 0 if not.  The check in
ath5k does not check this case and assumes it always got the actual
header length which it then checks against the skb->len plus some headroom.

Change to ieee80211_hdrlen which always returns the hdrlen and keep the
existing headroom check.

Bruno Randolf 63266a6535 ath5k: rates cleanup
cleanup the rates structures used by ath5k. instead of separate driver and
mac80211 rate structures we now setup a static ieee80211_rate array and use it
directly. no conversion between two different rate structures has to be done
any more. a lot of unused and confusing junk was deleted.

renamed ath5k_getchannels into ath5k_setup_bands because this is what it does.
rewrote it to copy the bitrates correctly for each band. this is necessary for
running different hardware with the same driver (e.g. 5211 and 5212 based
cards).

add special handling of rates for AR5211 chipsets: it uses different rate codes
for CCK rates (which are actually like the other chips but with a 0xF mask).

setup a hardware code to rate index reverse mapping table for getting the rate
index of received frames.

the rates for control frames which have to be set in
ath5k_hw_write_rate_duration are now in one single array.

requeue and powersaving stations) where requeue can happen, but that is
not currently used by any drivers/not possible to use respectively.
