http://svn.madwifi.org/ath5k/trunk commit 286c21f7d6b7a0315d717bdaf5efc320bbd19df6 Author: Luis R. Rodriguez <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Thu Nov 1 23:11:31 2007 -0400 ath5k: Add documentation for struct ath5k_rate This adds documentation for struct ath5k_rate. This also removes some unused variables, lp_ack_duration and sp_ack_duration which are simply unnecessary. We're now just missing information about rate hw values: 3-5 16 17-23 28-32 If anyone knows what those are, please let us know. Changes to ath5k.h Changes-licensed-under: ISC Signed-off-by: Luis R.

These are split between AR5K_TUNE_BMISS_THRES and AR5K_TUNE_RSSI_THRES. Changes to ath5k.h, hw.c Changes-licensed-under: ISC Signed-off-by: Luis R.

Rodriguez <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Thu Nov 1 00:38:16 2007 -0400 ath5k: Fix clock on OFDM timing computation We were setting the clock to the turbo sampling rate always, lets fix this for plain OFDM sampling rate at 40 MHz. I believe this tunes the PLL to the desired frequency, by setting the mantissa and the exponent. Changes to hw.c Changes-licensed-under: ISC Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> commit a4652a02120b518f0399440178f575802a690758 Author: Luis R. Rodriguez <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Thu Nov 1 17:50:30 2007 -0400 ath5k: Clean up ath5k rate duration settings Replace ath5k's rate duration computations for one using mac80211's internals. Another consideration here is to simply remove these and put them into initval values. They seem to be static values based only on mode. We can do this later though once we can physically confirm by trial and error these are indeed just used for ACK timeout. The next puzzle is figuring out which registers are actually setting the control rates. Changes to ath5k.h, hw.c Changes-licensed-under: ISC Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> commit 3521cf5856b3577a65c1e3c8aeba95a6395c290c Author: Luis R. Rodriguez <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Thu Nov 1 00:35:20 2007 -0400 ath5k: Remove opaque pointers from ath5k_hw_attach() Since we don't have a HAL anymore there is no point to use opaque pointers in ath5k_hw_attach(). This will also give hw.c access to ath5k_softc structure now when needed. While we're at it, lets also give some ah_sh a reasonable name, ah_sh --> ah_iobase.

Rodriguez <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Thu Nov 1 00:34:24 2007 -0400 ath5k: Fix initval/eeprom/IQ calibration for G mode ath5k_hw_reset() was always setting initval and eeprom settings for B mode when using G mode. This is because a B channel was being picked up first. We should first instead check for G channel. This patch also introduces a driver_mode variable which should be used instead for determing more reliably the mode we're in. This fixing another bug where IQ calibration was not being run for G mode as CHANNEL_B was always being picked up first. We now instead check for driver_mode. Similar problem was occurring in ath5k_hw_rf5112_rfregs(), we fix this there too. Changes to phy.c, hw.c Changes-licensed-under: ISC Signed-off-by: Luis R.

Linville <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> commit 596d594f301545a2ff17995783ff20a7062a8f73 Author: Nick Kossifidis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Sun Oct 28 02:58:27 2007 +0300 ath5k: Remove fill_tx_desc fill_tx_desc is used for fast frames operation, since we don't support fast frames (and since fill_tx_desc had a bug -thanx to Ulrich Meis for finding that out-) these functions are not needed (+ they are misleading because they don't "fill" any tx descriptor). I couldn't test this patch much so plz someone ACK it... It applies on top of my previous patches (i just thought that [PATCH 8/7] won't look nice ;-) ).

Plz we need help with these... I did some tests on a 5414 at 5GHz and it seemed to work but i didn't test it at 2GHz. I'll try to find one of these and play with.

Eg. ath5k_desc for descriptor related funcions, ath5k_rx/tx for general rx/tx functions, ath5k_txq for tx queues, ath5k_hw (inside hw.c and rest) for hw related functions and so on. This helps us track down things more easily. Changes-licensed-under: 3-clause-BSD Signed-Off-by: Nick Kossifidis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Signed-off-by: John W.
