2014-12-05mwifiex: do not process broadcast mac address for del_staAvinash Patil
Generally broadcast mac address deauth is followed by stop_ap or start_ap. In both cases, FW already has provision to send deauth; so there is no need to handle broadcast mac deauthentication.

2014-12-05mwifiex: do not delete station entries in del_sta handlerAvinash Patil
A crash was observed while cfg80211 del_station handler is called while stopping AP. This was happening because we were deleting station list and Rx reorder table entries in del_sta handler. While station entry is being deleted here, it may happen that station deauth event from FW would also try to delete station entry. This patch fixes this crash by not deleting station entries in del_station handler. Entry would be deleted while processing station deauth event; which is triggered by del_station command to FW.

2014-11-25mwifiex: skip delay main work logic for USB interface.Amitkumar Karwar
We had introduced delay main work logic to avoid processing interrupts when Rx pending packet count reaches high threshold. interrupt processing is restarted later when packet count reduces lower threashold. This helped to reduce unnecessary overhead and improve throughput for SD and PCIe chipsets. As there are no interrupts for USB, we will skip this logic for USB chipsets.

2014-11-17mwifiex: add auto TDLS supportAvinash Patil
This patch adds auto TDLS support to mwifiex. Auto TDLS functionality works as follows: 1. Whenever userspace application has triggered TDLS connection with any peer, driver would store this peer mac address details in its database. 2. After this driver whenever driver receives packet on direct link, it would store rssi and timestamp in peer information. 3. Whenever a packet is to be transmitted to non-AP peer in station mode, driver would check if TDLS link can be established by looking at peer RSSI information. Driver would initiate TDLS setup in such cases. 4. Periodic timer is used for updating peer information. 5. Auto TDLS peer list & timer are cleared during disconnection or driver unload.

2014-11-11mwifiex: fix out of memory issue observed for USB chipsetsAmitkumar Karwar
On some platforms, system goes out of memory during heavy Rx traffic with our USB chipsets. In case of SDIO/PCIe, after receiving 50 packets in Rx queue we stop processing interrupts till packets pending fall below low threshold i.e 20. We don't have similar logic for USB, so if host platform is slow, we would hit a case where firmware keeps on pushing packets at high speed than driver/kernel can process. We will stop submitting URBs for Rx data when pending packet count reaches high threshold and restart them when enough packets are consumed to solve the problem.

2014-10-30mwifiex: restart rxreorder timer correctlyMarc Yang
During 11n RX reordering, if there is a hole in RX table, driver will not send packets to kernel until the rxreorder timer expires or the table is full. However, currently driver always restarts rxreorder timer when receiving a packet, which causes the timer hardly to expire. So while connected with to 11n AP in a busy environment, ping packets may get blocked for about 30 seconds. This patch fixes this timer restarting by ensuring rxreorder timer would only be restarted either timer is not set or start_win has changed.

2014-09-15mwifiex: process TX even when scan is ongoingAvinash Patil
With channel scan gap, FW comes back to connected channel after each single channel scan. So we can safely transfer data to FW during scan. FW would send this data once on connected channel.

2014-09-15mwifiex: remove restriction of single channel scan when connectedAvinash Patil
With scan channel gap in place, FW comes back to connected channel after each scan; so we dont need to restrict FW to scan single channel while connected.

2014-09-15mwifiex: bring in scan channel gap featureAvinash Patil
With scan channel gap when any station/AP is active, FW comes back to connected channel for any pending data transfter after scanning each channel. We set scan channel gap TLV to FW in scan command when any of the interface is active. This enables scan channel gap in FW. Also when scan channel gap is enabled, we would scan maximum channels allowed by FW. Scan channel gap is supported only on FW with V15 FW API.

2014-09-15mwifiex: set passive scan type for scan requests with no ssidAvinash Patil
It was observed that station would sent probe request even when scan type has been set as passive during iw scan. This was happening because driver sets passive scan type only when channel has IEEE80211_CHAN_NO_IR flag set. Along with this, add condition to check if no ssids are specified in scan request so as to mark such scan request passive. Signed-off-by: Avinash Patil <patila@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
