[PATCH for 3.10 00/16] brcmfmac: firmware-signalling fixes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This is a somewhat large series and reading the message of the announcement
of v3.10-rc3 I think it is good to give our story up front. Firmware-signalling
is a new feature merged in for 3.10, which was a major overhaul of the transmit
path in brcmfmac. During and after the merge window we still have some blanks
in our test coverage and further testing revealed issues with P2P, TDLS, and
power-saving clients in AP mode. These issues have been fixed in this series.

As said this series is intended for 3.10 and applies to the master branch of
the wireless repository.

Arend van Spriel (6):
  brcmfmac: allow firmware-signal tlv to be longer than specified
  brcmfmac: remove fifo bitfield from brcmf_skbuff_cb::if_flags
  brcmfmac: rework credit pickup to assure consistent handling
  brcmfmac: explicitly indicate sk_buff is sent upon request credit
  brcmfmac: reducing debug logging in firmware-signalling code
  brcmfmac: Sent TIM information in case of data available.

Hante Meuleman (10):
  brcmfmac: Take bus flowcontrol at credit mgmt into account.
  brcmfmac: On bus flow control use fw signalling or netif.
  brcmfmac: For FW signalling it is necessary to track gen bit.
  brcmfmac: Correct creditmap when credit borrowing is active.
  brcmfmac: Find correct MAC descriptor in case of TDLS.
  brcmfmac: fix invalid ifp lookup in firmware-signalling
  brcmfmac: Accept only first creditmap event.
  brcmfmac: Signalling header push and pull on logic places.
  brcmfmac: Fix endless loop when brcmf_fws_commit_skb fails.
  brcmfmac: Simplify counting transit count.
