2013-12-09mwifiex: declare snap_type as __be16 variableAmitkumar Karwar1-3/+3
Actually we are updating snap_type with h_proto (__be16 variable) in ethernet frame header. Hence endianness conversion is not required. Signed-off-by: Amitkumar Karwar <akarwar@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: Bing Zhao <bzhao@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2013-09-26mwifiex: fix hang issue for USB chipsetsAmitkumar Karwar1-1/+2
Bug 60815 - Interface hangs in mwifiex_usb https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60815 We have 4 bytes of interface header for packets delivered to SDIO and PCIe, but not for USB interface. In Tx AMSDU case, currently 4 bytes of garbage data is unnecessarily appended for USB packets. This sometimes leads to a firmware hang, because it may not interpret the data packet correctly. Problem is fixed by removing this redundant headroom for USB.

2013-07-24mwifiex: maintain outstanding packet count for RA list instead of packet sizeAvinash Patil1-2/+2
Maintain total outstanding packet count for RA list instead of total outstanding size as packet count metric seems more reasonable for checking threshold etc. Signed-off-by: Avinash Patil <patila@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: Bing Zhao <bzhao@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2013-04-23mwifiex: rework round robin scheduling of bss nodes.Andreas Fenkart1-6/+0
Rotate bss prio list, so the bss next to the one served, will come first in the list of bss' with equal priority. This way we pick bss nodes in a round robin fashion. Using list rotation instead of a cur ptr simplifies iteration to calling list_for_each_entry. List rotation is done via list_move, where the head itself is temporarily removed and then re-inserted after the bss just served.

2013-04-23mwifiex: replace ra_list_curr by list rotation.Andreas Fenkart1-7/+1
After a packet is successfully transmitted, ra list is rotated, so the ra next to the one transmitted, will be the first in the list. This way we pick the ra' in a round robin fashion. This significantly simplifies iteration in mwifiex_wmm_get_highest_priolist_ptr to a call to list_for_each_entry. List rotation is done via list_move, where the head itself is temporarily removed and then re-inserted after the item just transferred.

2013-01-07mwifiex: use map/unmap APIs in TX and RX to reduce memcpyAvinash Patil1-2/+4
This patch is an enhacement to mwifiex_pcie driver to use map/unmap PCI memory APIs. This reduces one memcpy each in TX path and RX path, and enhances throughput.

2012-11-14mwifiex: add multi-queue supportAvinash Patil1-4/+4
This patch adds support for multiple TX queues inside mwifiex driver. Four different queues according to WMM access categories are defined for each virtual interface. When a packet is received from netdev for transmission, tx pending count for particular queue is incremented and if tx pending count has reached upper water-mark, this queue is stopped instead of stopping all queues. Similarly when a packet is successfully transmitted from device, tx pending count is decremented per queue and if pending count falls below lower water-mark, queue operations are again resumed. This ensures that not all tranmission is blocked if traffic with particular TOS value suddenly increases. Also wake all queues after association/IBSS_join/uAP_BSS_start to enable traffic on all queues.

Since commit: fb3c19bc9687d972b83faf366b38ac807eca8f25, adding extra padding to AMSDU is redundant since same is being performed at mwifiex_11n_aggregate_pkt after forming the AMSDU packet.

2011-10-03mwifiex: correct AMSDU aggregation checkAmitkumar Karwar1-2/+0
The commit "mwifiex: remove list traversal.."(fcf2176c87..) wrongly modifies AMSDU aggregation check. Due to this even though packet size for iperf traffic is already large, we unnecessarily try to aggregate them which adds some delay. If Tx iperf is started on UUT for 30 seconds, UUT keeps sending Tx packets for few more seconds. That commit is reverted to fix the problem. Also, MIN_NUM_AMSDU check is moved inside the loop to optimize the loop.

2011-06-07mwifiex: disable transmission buffer aggregation for AMSDU packetsYogesh Ashok Powar1-5/+13
Padding per MSDU will affect the length of next packet and hence the exact length of next packet is uncertain here. Also, aggregation of transmission buffer, while downloading the data to the card, wont gain much on the AMSDU packets as the AMSDU packets utilizes the transmission buffer space to the maximum (adapter->tx_buf_size).

2011-06-07mwifiex: adding check for enough space before paddingYogesh Ashok Powar1-8/+14

2011-06-07mwifiex: remove list traversal in mwifiex_num_pkts_in_txqYogesh Ashok Powar1-1/+4
Instead of counting the number of packets in txq for particular RA list before AMSDU creation, maintain a counter which will keep track of the same. This will reduce some MIPS while generating AMSDU traffic as we only have to check the counter instead of traversing through skb list.
