Firmware IE containers can dynamically provide various information what firmware supports. Also it can embed more than one image so updating firmware is easy, user just needs to update one file in /lib/firmware/. The firmware API 2 or higher will use the IE container format, the current API 1 will not use the new format but it still is supported for some time. Firmware API 2 files are named as firmware-2.bin (which contains both amss.bin and m3.bin images) and API 1 files are amss.bin and m3.bin. Currently ath11k PCI driver provides firmware binary (amss.bin) path to MHI driver, MHI driver reads firmware from filesystem and boots it. Add provision to read firmware files from ath11k driver and provide the amss.bin firmware data and size to MHI using a pointer. Currently enum ath11k_fw_features is empty, the patches adding features will add the flags. With AHB devices there's no amss.bin or m3.bin, so no changes in how AHB firmware files are used. But AHB devices can use future additions to the meta data, for example in enum ath11k_fw_features.

Simple refactoring to make it easier to add firmware-2.bin support in the following patch. Earlier ath11k_qmi_m3_load() supported changing m3.bin contents while ath11k is running. But that's not going to actually work, m3.bin is supposed to be the same during the lifetime of ath11k, for example we don't support changing the firmware capabilities on the fly. Due to this ath11k requests m3.bin firmware file first and only then checks m3_mem->vaddr, so we are basically requesting the firmware file even if it's not needed. Reverse the code so that m3_mem buffer is checked first, and only if it doesn't exist, then m3.bin is requested from user space. Checking for m3_mem->size is redundant when m3_mem->vaddr is NULL, we would not be able to use the buffer in that case. So remove the check for size. Simplify the exit handling and use 'goto out'.

In PCI, thermal and HAL interface layer module, the identifier sc is used to represent an instance of ath11k_base structure. However, within ath11k, the convention is to use "ab" to represent an SoC "base" struct. So change the all instances of sc to ab. Compile tested only. Signed-off-by:

strncpy() is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1] and as such we should prefer more robust and less ambiguous string interfaces. We expect led->name to be NUL-terminated based on the presence of a manual NUL-byte assignment. This NUL-byte assignment was added in Commit daf9669b ("ath5k: ensure led name is null terminated"). If strscpy() had existed and had been used back when this code was written then potential bugs and the need to manually NUL-terminate could have been avoided. Since we now have the technology, let's use it :) Considering the above, a suitable replacement is `strscpy` [2] due to the fact that it guarantees NUL-termination on the destination buffer without unnecessarily NUL-padding. If NUL-padding is required let's opt for strscpy_pad().

Currently, the logic to return an ath11k_sta pointer, given a ieee80211_sta pointer, uses typecasting throughout the driver. In general, conversion functions are preferable to typecasting since using a conversion function allows the compiler to validate the types of both the input and output parameters. ath11k already defines a conversion function ath11k_vif_to_arvif() for a similar conversion. So introduce ath11k_sta_to_arsta() for this use case, and convert all of the existing typecasting to use this function. No functional changes, compile tested only. Signed-off-by:

Certain regulatory domains could put restrictions on phy mode operation. For example, in a few countries HE/EHT Operation is not allowed. For such countries, firmware indicates this via phy bitmap in each reg rule. Currently, there is no logic to parse this info and then pass it on to the cfg80211/regulatory. Add parsing of this phy bitmap from the regulatory channel change event and then accordingly map it to cfg80211/regulatory flags and pass it on to it.

Helper function ath12k_vif_to_arvif() exists to retrieve a struct ath12k_vif from a struct ieee80211_vif. However, in multiple places this logic is open-coded with inline typecasting.

When frames are sent over the air, the device always applies the data rates in descending order. The driver assumed Minstrel also provided rate in descending order. However, in some cases, Minstrel can a choose a fallback rate greater than the primary rate. In this case, the two rates was inverted, the device try highest rate first and we get many retries. Since the device always applies rates in descending order, the workaround is to drop the rate when it higher than its predecessor in the rate list. Thus [ 4, 5, 3 ] becomes [ 4, 3 ]. This patch has been tested in isolated room with a series of attenuators. Here are the Minstrel statistics with 80dBm of attenuation: Without the fix: best ____________rate__________ ____statistics___ _____last____ ______sum-of________ mode guard # rate [name idx airtime max_tp] [avg(tp) avg(prob)] [retry|suc|att] [#success | #attempts] HT20 LGI 1 S MCS0 0 1477 5.6 5.2 82.7 3 0 0 3 4 HT20 LGI 1 MCS1 1 738 10.6 0.0 0.0 0 0 0 0 1 HT20 LGI 1 D MCS2 2 492 14.9 13.5 81.5 5 0 0 5 9 HT20 LGI 1 C MCS3 3 369 18.8 17.6 84.3 5 0 0 76 96 HT20 LGI 1 A P MCS4 4 246 25.4 22.4 79.5 5 0 0 11268 14026 HT20 LGI 1 B S MCS5 5 185 30.7 19.7 57.7 5 8 9 3918 9793 HT20 LGI 1 MCS6 6 164 33.0 0.0 0.0 5 0 0 6 102 HT20 LGI 1 MCS7 7 148 35.1 0.0 0.0 0 0 0 0 44 With the fix: best ____________rate__________ ____statistics___ _____last____ ______sum-of________ mode guard # rate [name idx airtime max_tp] [avg(tp) avg(prob)] [retry|suc|att] [#success | #attempts] HT20 LGI 1 S MCS0 0 1477 5.6 1.8 28.6 1 0 0 1 5 HT20 LGI 1 DP MCS1 1 738 10.6 9.7 82.6 4 0 0 14 34 HT20 LGI 1 MCS2 2 492 14.9 9.2 55.4 5 0 0 52 77 HT20 LGI 1 B S MCS3 3 369 18.8 15.6 74.9 5 1 1 417 554 HT20 LGI 1 A MCS4 4 246 25.4 16.7 59.2 5 1 1 13812 17951 HT20 LGI 1 C S MCS5 5 185 30.7 14.0 41.0 5 1 5 57 640 HT20 LGI 1 MCS6 6 164 33.0 0.0 0.0 0 0 1 0 48 HT20 LGI 1 S MCS7 7 148 35.1 0.0 0.0 0 0 0 0 36 We can notice the device try now to send with lower rates (and high success rates).

With some conditions, the device is able to send/receive frames during scan operation. So, it is possible to use it implement the "remain on channel" feature. We just ask for a passive scan (without sending any probe request) on one channel. This architecture allows to leverage some interesting features: - if the device is AP, the device switches channel just after the next beacon and the beacons are stopped during the off-channel interval. - if the device is connected, it advertises it is asleep before to switch channel (so the AP should stop to try to send data) Signed-off-by: -

Until now, all the traffic was blocked during scan operation. However, scan operation is going to be used to implement Remain On Channel (ROC). In this case, special frames (marked with IEEE80211_TX_CTL_TX_OFFCHAN) must be sent during the operation. These frames need to be sent on the virtual interface #2. Until now, this interface was only used by the device for internal purpose. But since API 3.9, it can be used to send data during scan operation (we hijack the scan process to implement ROC). Thus, we need to change a bit the way we match the frames with the interface. Fortunately, the frames received during the scan are marked with the correct interface number. So there is no change to do on this part. Signed-off-by:

Currently, one scan_lock is associated to each vif. However, concurrent scan on vifs is explicitly prohibited by the device. Currently, scan_lock is associated with a vif but it is always locked with conf_mutex (there is a case where conf_mutex is not associated to scan_lock but scan_lock is tested on all interfaces). So concurrent scan on vifs cannot happen. So, this patch relocate scan_lock to the device and simplify the code. Signed-off-by:

The device ignore the rx filters during the scan operation. wfx_configure_filter() acquires scan_lock to reflect this restriction. However, it is not really necessary since mac80211 don't try to configure Rx filters during scan. However, the things are changing. The scan operation is going to be used to implement remain-on-channel. In this case, wfx_configure_filter() can be called during the scan. Currently, this scenario generate a delay that end with a timeout in the upper layers. For the final user, some scenario of the EasyConnect specification end with a failure. So, avoid acquiring the scan_lock and just return. Signed-off-by:

The WF200 allow to start two network interfaces (one AP, one station) on two different channels. Since magic does not exist, it only works if the station interface enables power save. Thus, the driver detects this case and enforce power save as necessary. This patch fixes the case where the AP interface is stopped and it is no more necessary to enforce power saving on the station interface. Signed-off-by:
