zd1211rw: Fix TX status reporting in order to have proper rate control
First, we reduce the number of hardware retries to 0 (ie 2 real retries
for each rate). Next, when we report the retries to mac80211, we always
report a retry count of 1 (it seems to be 2 in fact, but using 2 seems
to lead to wrong performance for some reason). We use a state machine to
determine the real fate of a packet based on the 802.11 ACK and what the
Zydas hardware is saying when a real retry occurs. The real retry rates
are encoded in a static array. It has been tested with both zd1211 and
zd1211b hardware. Of course, since the Zydas hardware is not reporting
retries accurately, we are just doing our best in order to get the best
performance (ie higher throughput).

While in monitor mode the zd1211rw received only a limited

receives. Notify that while monitoring no FCS checks are done; so
strange packets might appear in the network sniffer of your
choice.
ATTENTION: Support for multiple interfaces on a single ZD1211
device is currently broken. So this code works only on the first
interface.
Here is an example to put the device in monitor mode.

[PATCH] zd1211rw: Defer firmware load until first ifup
While playing with the firmware a while back, I discovered a way to
access the device's entire address space before the firmware has been
loaded.
Previously we were loading the firmware early on (during probe) so that
we could read the MAC address from the EEPROM and register a netdevice.
Now that we can read the EEPROM without having firmware, we can defer
firmware loading until later while still reading the MAC address early
on.
This has the advantage that zd1211rw can now be built into the kernel --
previously if this was the case, zd1211rw would be loaded before the
filesystem is available and firmware loading would fail.
Firmware load and other device initialization operations now happen the
first time the interface is brought up.
Some architectural changes were needed: handling of the is_zd1211b flag
was moved into the zd_usb structure, MAC address handling was obviously
changed, and a preinit_hw stage was added (the order is now: init,
preinit_hw, init_hw).

[PATCH] zd1211rw: Add UW2453 RF support
This patch adds support for another radio appearing in new devices: the

Ubec publish full tech specs so we're able to understand the vendor code
relatively well.
Now that we support UW2453, we also support Atheros' new USB chip: the
AR5007UG. From the little info we have, this appears to be just a
rebranded ZD1211B.
This RF code doesn't work very well -- lots more TX/RX errors than the
other RFs. However, the vendor driver doesn't do any better, so this is
all we can do for now.

[PATCH] zd1211rw: Remove addressing abstraction
Instead of passing our own custom 32-bit addresses around and
translating them, this patch makes all our register address constants
absolute and removes the translation.
There are two ugly parts:
- fw_reg_addr() is needed to compute addresses of firmware registers, as this
is dynamic based upon firmware
- inc_addr() needs a small hack to handle byte vs word addressing
However, both of those are only small, and we don't use fw_regs a whole
lot anyway.
The bonuses here include simplicity and improved driver readability. Also, the
fact that registers are now referenced by 16-bit absolute addresses (as
opposed to 32-bit pseudo addresses) means that over 2kb compiled code size has
been shaved off.
Includes some touchups and sparse fixes from Ulrich Kunitz.

[PATCH] zd1211rw: Consistency for address space constants
The zd1211rw address space has confused me once too many times. This
patch introduces the following naming notation:
Memory space is split into segments (cr, fw, eeprom) and segments may
contain components (e.g. boot code inside eeprom). These names are
arbitrary and only for the description below:
x_START: Absolute address of segment start
(previously these were named such as CR_BASE_OFFSET, but they weren't
really offsets unless you were considering them as an offset to 0)
x_LEN: Segment length
x_y_LEN: Length of component y of segment x
x_y_OFFSET: Relative address of component y into segment x. The absolute
address for this component is (x_START + x_y_OFFSET)
I also renamed EEPROM registers to EEPROM data. These 'registers' can't
be written to using standard I/O and really represent predefined data
from the vendor.

[PATCH] ZyDAS ZD1211 USB-WLAN driver
There are 60+ USB wifi adapters available on the market based on the ZyDAS
ZD1211 chip.
Unlike the predecessor (ZD1201), ZD1211 does not have a hardware MAC, so most
data operations are coordinated by the device driver. The ZD1211 chip sits
alongside an RF transceiver which is also controlled by the driver. Our driver
currently supports 2 RF types, we know of one other available in a few marketed
products which we will be supporting soon.
Our driver also supports the newer revision of ZD1211, called ZD1211B. The
initialization and RF operations are slightly different for the new revision,
but the main difference is 802.11e support. Our driver does not support the
QoS features yet, but we think we know how to use them.
This driver is based on ZyDAS's own GPL driver available from www.zydas.com.tw.
ZyDAS engineers have been responsive and supportive of our efforts, so thumbs
up to them. Additionally, the firmware is redistributable and they have
provided device specs.
This driver has been written primarily by Ulrich Kunitz and myself. Graham
Gower, Greg KH, Remco and Bryan Rittmeyer have also contributed. The
developers of ieee80211 and softmac have made our lives so much easier- thanks!
We maintain a small info-page: http://zd1211.ath.cx/wiki/DriverRewrite
If there is enough time for review, we would like to aim for inclusion in
2.6.18. The driver works nicely as a STA, and can connect to both open and
encrypted networks (we are using software-based encryption for now). We will
work towards supporting more advanced features in the future (ad-hoc, master
mode, 802.11a, ...).
