rt2500pci 2.0.9 not working

rt2500pci 2.0.9 not working

[Marcus Better]

I just tried the rt2500pci driver version 2.0.9 from the wireless-2.6 tree.
It does not work. There is no connection, and "iwlist scan" produces no
scan results.

I'm successfully using version 2.0.7 from wireless-dev (2.6.23-rc3 i386) on
this LG laptop.

Neither does 2.0.10 from the current wireless-2.6 "everything" branch. I see scan results now but cannot associate with the access point using WEP.

Hm, right, noticed that it was merged right after sending this. Reason
19 seems totally unrelated to crypto:
WLAN_STATUS_ASSOC_DENIED_NOSHORTPREAMBLE = 19

Looking at the code... Ahh, I see. You've selected the B mode instead of
G and the AP requires G. I think my "[PATCH] mac80211: fix set_channel
regression" will fix this for you.

The same error 19? That's weird because if you select a G mode we do
advertise short slot/short preamble.

No, but you can comment out the B mode registration in rt2500pci and see
if that helps.

Me neither. It seems to be in rt2x00dev.c, Ivo can you help maybe? Just
for debugging. I'd have thought that adding the 'break' statement would
fix it.

Alternatively, could you print out the selected mode in
ieee80211_ioctl.c:ieee80211_set_channel?

something like
printk(KERN_DEBUG "selected mode %d\n", local->oper_hw_mode->mode);
printk(KERN_DEBUG "select channel %d\n", local->oper_channel);

Now I see that I got the same result even with driver version 2.0.7. I can
change it with iwconfig though. Is this normal?

In mac80211, the association and authentication steps are always done at 1 Mb to maximize the
likelihood of that step succeeding. Once communication is established, the rate-setting mechanism in
rc80211_simple will adjust the rate to what it considers the highest value that works. You always
have the option of forcing a higher value with iwconfig at the risk of increasing the error rate.

I get download rates of about 9 Mbit, but iwconfig still says the bit rate
is 1 Mbit, which seems a bit strange.

The rate reported by iwconfig is the upstream rate. The rates won't necessarily
be the same up and downstream.

[PATCH v2] mac80211: fix set_channel regression

[Johannes Berg]

Adam Baker reported that the prism2 ioctl removal changed behaviour
in that now the selection order was the other way around as before.
New API is planned but not done yet, so for now just use the first
matching channel in any mode as was previous behaviour with an unset
next_mode.

Can you add back your printk patch and check what type 'channel' was and
maybe print channel->channel?

Update: on my second recompile (after adding the printks) it started
working. I'm not sure why it failed the first time.

However there is a huge performance regression. "tptest" shows a TCP
throughput of under 300 kbit for the driver version 2.0.9 (current
wireless-2.6), compared to 7 Mbit for version 2.0.7 (with kernel
2.6.23-rc3). The UDP speed was also affected but not as much, down from
around 5-10 Mbit to 1 Mbit.

> Can you add back your printk patch and check what type 'channel' was and

With the printks below I get the following:

Oct 15 13:14:43 better kernel: selected mode 2
Oct 15 13:14:43 better kernel: selected channel 8

Buggy recompile? No idea really.

I don't think this would be related to mac80211, I'll let Ivo handle the
rest of this.

Could you enable debugfs and use attached debugfs script to create a dump
of the rt2x00 registers. Preferably a dump of both the rt2x00 2.0.7 and 2.0.9 versions.

Here's a dump with 2.0.10 from current wireless-2.6 (kernel 2.6.23) to
start with. However I forgot to include your mode setting patch so it
doesn't associate. More to follow later.

If you still need the debug dump for 2.0.7 (the latest working version),
can you show me how to get hold of a source tree with that version? I have
both the wireless-2.6 and rt2x00 git trees, but seem to have trouble
locating the right revision, perhaps because the tree was rebased.

Thanks,

Marcus

I'm afraid that is a bit of a problem, rt2x00 was merged into linus' tree as
a complete patch of version 2.0.8. This means the complete versioning of
2.0.7 has been lost.
The only possible way would be toying with cvs and copying the files
from there. But that is in no what a guarentee for success.

However I can recommend using 2.0.11 the following patches:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/ivd/rt2x00.git;a=commit;h=8927e4ea2933f5f276a7bb505a6b240156a9238f
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/ivd/rt2x00.git;a=commit;h=32a8da711c3b03a88487dbe48e57c489b5a3031c

Both caused problems with packet throughput. So those might have
resolved the problem you reported.

I tried the full 2.0.11. It still has throughput problems. TCP throughput is 
300 kbit/s (tptest and HTTP download). However UDP throughput is 10 Mbit/s 
according to tptest (and that may be limited by the bandwidth to the test 
server).

Attaching the debugfs dump.

[PATCH] mac80211: reorder association debug output

[Johannes Berg]

There's no reason to warn about an invalid AID field when the
association was denied.

Odd messages in your log btw:

We never use the AID value in this case...
