    mt76: add support for reporting tx status with skb · 88046b2c
    Felix Fietkau authored
    MT76x2/MT76x0 has somewhat unreliable tx status reporting, and for that
    reason the driver currently does not report per-skb tx ack status at all.
    This breaks things like client idle polling, which relies on the tx ack
    status of a transmitted nullfunc frame.
    
    This patch adds code to report skb-attached tx status if requested by
    mac80211 or the rate control module. Since tx status is polled from a
    simple FIFO register, the code needs to account for the possibility of
    tx status events getting lost.
    
    The code keeps a list of skbs for which tx status is required and passes
    them to mac80211 once tx status has been filled in and the DMA queue is
    done with it.
    If a tx status event is not received after one second, the status rates
    are cleared, and a succesful ACK is indicated to avoid spurious disassoc
    during assoc or client polling.
