Revert "rt2800: use TXOP_BACKOFF for probe frames"

2018-06-05T09:46:13Z

commit 52a192362932f333a7ebafd581c4d9b81da2fec8 upstream. This reverts commit fb47ada8dc3c30c8e7b415da155742b49536c61e. In some situations when we set TXOP_BACKOFF, the probe frame is not sent at all. What it worse then sending probe frame as part of AMPDU and can degrade 11n performance to 11g rates.

vfs: do bulk POLL* -> EPOLL* replacement

2018-02-11T22:34:03Z

This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL* variables as described by Al, done by this script: for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'` for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^$[^\"]*$$\$/\\1E\\2/" $f; done done with de-mangling cleanups yet to come. NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same values as the POLL* constants do. But they keyword here is "almost". For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al. The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we should be all done. Scripted-by: Al Viro Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

rt2x00: do not pause queue unconditionally on error path

2018-01-08T17:39:07Z

Pausing queue without checking threshold is racy with txdone path. Moreover we do not need pause queue on any error, but only if queue is full - in case when we send RTS frame ( other cases of almost full queue are already handled in rt2x00queue_write_tx_frame() ). Patch fixes of theoretically possible problem of pausing empty queue. Signed-off-by: Stanislaw Gruszka Tested-by: Enrico Mioso Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo

rt2x00: use monotonic timestamps for frame dump

2017-11-10T02:33:05Z

rt2x00 uses the deprecated do_gettimeofday() function to get a timestamp for its debugfs "dump" file interface. The timestamp is using an unsigned 32-bit value, so we could make it work until 2106 by using ktime_get_real_ts64(), but it seems better to use monotonic times, as we normally want for timestamps. Since this is an interface change, I'm incrementing the DUMP_HEADER_VERSION number, so user space can figure out whether the timestamps are monotonic or not. Most likely the tools won't care either way. Generally speaking, ABI version numbers and in particular changing them is a bad idea. However since this is in debugfs, we don't put any API stability rules on the interface according to Documentation/filesystems/debugfs.txt, and we can take the easy way out here; anyone using the frame dump feature can probably work out the differences here.

rt2x00usb: mark device removed when get ENOENT usb error

2017-11-10T02:32:07Z

ENOENT usb error mean "specified interface or endpoint does not exist or is not enabled". Mark device not present when we encounter this error similar like we do with ENODEV error. Otherwise we can have infinite loop in rt2x00usb_work_rxdone(), because we remove and put again RX entries to the queue infinitely. We can have similar situation when submit urb will fail all the time with other error, so we need consider to limit number of entries processed by rxdone work. But for now, since the patch fixes reproducible soft lockup issue on single processor systems and taken ENOENT error meaning, let apply this fix. Patch adds additional ENOENT check not only in rx kick routine, but also on other places where we check for ENODEV error.
