ath9k: Handle txpower changes even when TPC is disabled
When TPC is disabled IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_POWER event can be handled to reconfigure HW's maximum txpower. This fixes 0dBm txpower setting when user attaches to an interface for the first time with the following scenario: ieee80211_do_open() ath9k_add_interface() ath9k_set_txpower() /* Set TX power with not yet initialized sc->hw->conf.power_level */ ieee80211_hw_config() /* Iniatilize sc->hw->conf.power_level and raise IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_POWER */ ath9k_config() /* IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_POWER is ignored */ This issue can be reproduced with the following: $ modprobe -r ath9k $ modprobe ath9k $ wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 -c /tmp/wpa.conf & $ iw dev /* Here TX power is either 0 or 3 depending on RF chain */ $ killall wpa_supplicant $ iw dev /* TX power goes back to calibrated value and subsequent calls will be fine */ Fixes: 283dd119 ("ath9k: add per-vif TX power capability") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Remi Pommarel <repk@triplefau.lt> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@codeaurora.org>
