[PATCH v3 0/5] ath9k: few power save / suspend fixes

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

 



Upon further review with Johannes on the semantics of mac80211's
idle notifications we decided its best to leave it up to the drivers
to ensure idle state after mac80211 issues a stop() callback to
the drivers. This means if you are relying on the IDLE notification
you should not expect it after a stop() callback to disable your
radio. The implications of this means you need to ensure you keep
your 802.11 device idle after stop() and anything in between.

The other patches are a few debug warn once messages which will
only be enabled when you have debugging turned on, I also
integrated Ben's patch into the series as it added the Atheros
debug WARN_ON_ONCE() which I reuse in my other patches..

Ben Greear (1):
  ath9k: Make DMA warning in ath_stoprecv WARN_ON_ONCE.

Luis R. Rodriguez (4):
  ath9k: Fix power save count imbalance on ath_radio_enable()
  ath9k: fix assumptions for idle calls on suspend/resume
  ath9k: skip ATH9K_INT_TIM_TIMER when we are idle
  ath9k_hw: warn if we cannot change the power to the chip
