Patch fixes the bug 1900 at
http://www.intellinuxwireless.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1900
Issues:
Throughput and success ratio calculations were not done properly.
Number of retries were exceeding 16.
Fix:
Patch fixes above issues by doing window calculations inline with iwlwifi
Patch adds sanity check to limit number of retries to 16.

When iwlwifi driver receive fixed rate debugfs command, validate the
antenna selection, if the selection is invalid, report the valid antenna
choice and do not set the rate scale table to fixed rate. Otherwise, set
the entire rate scale table to the fixed rate request by the user. this
validation can prevent sysassert happen in uCode

when perform rate scaling, in tx status function, checking for
IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU flag instead of IEEE_TX_CTL_AMPDU flag to perform
AMPDU rate scaling operation.
IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU was set by mac80211 for aggregation pkt. But when
iwlwifi receive the tx status reply, it reset the flag to following
info->flags = IEEE80211_TX_STAT_ACK;
info->flags |= IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU;
it causes the rate-scaling to not work for aggregation pkt if we checking

During rate scaling, checking for 0 retry count before decrement
the count by 1, this can avoid the retry count to become 255 (0xff),
which will cause the rate to drop faster than what we expect during good
condition (receive 0 retry packet). also change the algorithm to make
the rate not drop faster than what we like.

The big bulk of this is code indent and over 80 character lines
(Lindent did this part) Other changes are foo * bar spacing, and
trailing whitespace.
v2: Cleans up ill-indented comments. Subsequently, this reduces the

This adds a module parameter for mac80211_hwsim regulatory testing.
This module parameter is designed specifically to help test the
different possible types of driver specific regulatory requests
and also helps to test world roaming, all without any hardware.
If you want to just simply test different alpha2s just use the userspace
regulatory request as this won't buy you anything new.

This is not used as we can always just assume the first

cfg80211 for a regdomain and that then populates the first
regulatory request.

Even after commit "mac80211: deauth when interface is marked down"
(e327b847 on Linus tree), userspace still isn't notified when interface
goes down. There isn't a problem with this commit, but because of other
code changes it doesn't work on kernels >= 2.6.28 (works if same/similar
change applied on 2.6.27 for example).
The issue is as follows: after commit "mac80211: restructure disassoc/deauth
flows" in 2.6.28, the call to ieee80211_sta_deauthenticate added by
commit e327b847 will not work: because we do sta_info_flush(local, sdata)
inside ieee80211_stop (iface.c), all stations in interface are cleared, so
when calling ieee80211_sta_deauthenticate->ieee80211_set_disassoc (mlme.c),
inside ieee80211_set_disassoc we have this in the beginning:
sta = sta_info_get(local, ifsta->bssid);
if (!sta) {
The !sta check triggers, thus the function returns early and
ieee80211_sta_send_apinfo(sdata, ifsta) later isn't called, so
wpa_supplicant/userspace isn't notified with SIOCGIWAP.
This commit moves deauthentication to before flushing STA info
(sta_info_flush), thus the above can't happen and userspace is really
notified when interface goes down.

If cfg80211 requests a scan it awaits either a return code != 0 from
the scan function or the cfg80211_scan_done to be called. In case of
a STA mac80211's scan function ever returns 0 and queues the scan request.
If ieee80211_sta_work is executed and ieee80211_start_scan fails for
some reason cfg80211_scan_done will never be called but cfg80211 still
thinks the scan was triggered successfully and will refuse any future
scan requests due to drv->scan_req not being cleaned up.
If a scan is triggered from within the MLME a similar problem appears. If
ieee80211_start_scan returns an error, local->scan_req will not be reset
and mac80211 will refuse any future scan requests.
Hence, in both cases call ieee80211_scan_failed (which notifies cfg80211
and resets local->scan_req) if ieee80211_start_scan returns an error.
