Subject: [PATCH v2 0/8] wl12xx: AP-mode per link PSM
Date: Wed, 23 Feb 2011 00:22:23 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1298413351-15462-1-git-send-email-arik@wizery.com> (raw)

This patchset introduces per-link PSM for AP-mode. The PS status of each
link is updated from FW.
The wl12xx concept of PSM is different from the mac80211 one - some data
must remain in FW for a link in PSM since the TIM is updated automatically
by FW. This functionality depends on the following mac80211 patch:
"mac80211: add HW flag for disabling auto link-PS in AP mode"

We set up a skb-queue per link which allows for a cleaner link
disconnection and prepares the code for regulating each link separately.

A few other AP-mode related small bug fixes and enchancements are included.

v1->2:
- In first patch, use atomic operations when changing the flags
  variable. It is not always changed within a spinlock/mutex.
- Rebase on latest master of maintainer's git

  wl12xx: fix potential race condition with TX queue watermark
  wl12xx: AP-mode - fix race condition on sta connection
  wl12xx: AP-mode - TX queue per link in AC

  wl12xx: AP-mode - support HW based link PS monitoring
  wl12xx: AP mode - fix bug in cleanup of wl1271_op_sta_add()
  wl12xx: AP-mode - count free FW TX blocks per link
