* mwifiex: disable auto deep sleep before unloading the driverAmitkumar Karwar2011-07-214-0/+19
| | | | | | | | | | Since the auto deep sleep mode has been enabled at driver init time we should disable it at driver unloading to shutdown the function gracefully.

* mwifiex: put multicast/broadcast packets to the same RAAmitkumar Karwar2011-07-211-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For ad-hoc mode, RA is created for each peer connected. In case of multicast traffic new RA will be created for each multicast address. While processing Tx packets we have to go through this RA list. We can avoid some RA nodes by sharing same RA for both multicast and broadcast packets. Therefore "memset(0xff)" is used to treat multicast packet as broadcast one while choosing RA.

If only CCK bitrates selected then 802.11b mode is enabled. If only OFDM bitrates are selected then 802.11g mode is enabled. For both: CCK and OFDM rates 802.11bg mixed mode is enabled.

* mwifiex: 4-byte alignment in mwifiex_process_sta_txpd()Yogesh Ashok Powar2011-07-082-5/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In XMIT path, the skb that we get from the kernel itself is not aligned with 4-byte boundary on some embedded platforms. Had it not been the presence of tx_pkt_offset field in txpd, 4 byte memory alignment was not possible without memmove of entire skb. And that would have increased MIPS instead of reducing. With this patch few memory cycles can be saved while fetching interface header and txpd structure because of 4 bytes memory alignment.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Debugfs command 'info' shows wrong interface type. The regression occurred due to commit eecd8250e (mwifiex: remove MWIFIEX_BSS_MODE_ macros) in which we replaced MWIFIEX_BSS_MODE_* macros by NL80211_IFTYPE_*, for example, MWIFIEX_BSS_MODE_IBSS (2) --> NL80211_IFTYPE_ADHOC (1) The issue is fixed by swapping static character array used to display interface type information.

| * mwifiex: correct event header lengthYogesh Ashok Powar2011-05-261-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While decoding received event packet from firmware, 4 bytes of interface header are already removed unconditionally. So for handling event only 4 more bytes needs to be pulled. This is achieved by changing event header length to 4. Almost all the events, except BA stream related and AMSDU aggregation control events, do not have the payload in their event skb. Such events handling depends only on the event ID. This event ID is the first four bytes of the event skb, which is copied to a separate variable before pulling the skb header. Hence event handling worked only for those events that didn't have payload in event skb. This patch fixes the broken event path of the events with payload in their event skb without harming existing working event path for the events without payload.
