rt2800pci used the callback write_tx_desc to write the tx descriptor but also to update the txwi which is part of the dma mapped skb. Since the memory was already DMA mapped _before_ the call to write_tx_desc the device didn't get the txwi data at all or only sporadically. The call order is basically as follows (from rt2x00queue.c): 1) write_tx_data 2) rt2x00queue_map_txskb 3) write_tx_desc Hence, we shouldn't touch the skb in write_tx_desc anymore. To fix this issue create a new rt2800pci_write_tx_data callback and use it for updating the txwi _before_ the memory gets DMA mapped. The tx descriptor is still written (as before) in write_tx_desc. This patch allows basic TX on an rt305x soc device but I'm pretty sure that it will fix pci based cards as well. I can associate just fine with an AP now but I wasn't able to get a wpa secured connection working yet.
