Use napi to reduce overhead on rx interrupts. Driver used to interrupt kernel for every Rx packet, this could affect both system and network performance. NAPI is a mechanism that uses polling when processing huge amount of traffic, by doing this the number of interrupts can be decreased. Network performance can also benefit from this patch. Since TCP connection is bidirectional and acks are required for every several packets. These ack packets occupie the PCI bus bandwidth and could lead to performance degradation. When napi is used, GRO receive is enabled by default in the mac80211 stack. So mac80211 won't pass every RX TCP packets to the kernel TCP network stack immediately. Instead an aggregated large length TCP packet will be delivered. This reduces the tx acks sent and gains rx performance. After the patch, the Rx throughput increases about 25Mbps in 11ac.

Since we set the IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL flag, so use_rts in ieee80211_tx_info will never be set in the ieee80211_xmit_fast path. Add length check for skb to decide whether rts is needed. Signed-off-by:

Register rrsr determines the response rate we send. In field tests, using rate higher than current tx rate could lead to difficulty for the receiving end to receive management/control frames. Calculate current modulation level by tx rate then cross out rate higher than those. Signed-off-by:

We use this driver as a backport that also runs on older kernels (as part of the backports project). So we use some checks to backport or prevent code from compiling in incompatible kernel version. When I took one of the PNVM patches from the backport, I accidentally left the comment that a certain part of the code doesn't work in older kernels. This obviously should never be valid for the mainline. Remove this comment. Reported-by:

ieee80211_find_sta_by_ifaddr() must be called under the RCU lock and the resulting pointer is only valid under RCU lock as well. Fix ath10k_wmi_tlv_op_pull_peer_stats_info() to hold RCU lock before it calls ieee80211_find_sta_by_ifaddr() and release it when the resulting pointer is no longer needed. This problem was found while reviewing code to debug RCU warn from ath10k_wmi_tlv_parse_peer_stats_info().

ac_classify() expects a struct sk_buff* as its second argument, which is a member of struct tx_complete_data. priv happens to be a pointer to struct tx_complete_data, so passing it directly to ac_classify() leads to wrong behaviour and occasional panics. Since there is only one caller of wilc_wlan_txq_add_net_pkt and it already knows the type behind this pointer, and the structure is already in the header file, change the function signature to use the real type instead of void* in order to prevent confusion.

If the SKU_ID doesn't match, we don't increment the pointer and keep checking the same TLV over and over again. We need to increment the pointer in all situtations, namely if the TLV is not a SKU_ID, if the SKU_ID matched or if the SKU_ID didn't match. So we can increment the pointer already before checking for these conditions to solve the problem. Signed-off-by:

Currently, for all devices and families, failing getting the temp from the fw is indicated in the log as ERR. This is too severe for two reasons: 1. The driver has a fall back - and schedules the next temp read immediately after failing to read temp from the fw. 2. The temp read implementation in the fw is different between HWs, and on older devices the flow is a-sync and may timeout. Reducing the print severity from ERR to WARN will allow to track the issue if it will appear many times, but not frighten users if it appears once. Signed-off-by:

Return value of the iwl_mvm_load_nvm_to_nic func is not analyzed. If load NVM to nic func fails and NVM is not loaded to fw properly, then fw may behave badly and lead to some strange issue. This commit will analyze return value and if load NVM to nic has failed, then the error code is sent to the previous func, which will trigger WRT log collection. iwl_fw_dbg_error_collect() func collects dump only if tri type is FW_DBG_TRIGGER_ALIVE_TIMEOUT. But when Load NVM to nic function fails trig_type is FW_DBG_TRIGGER_DRIVER. This commit also has code changes to collect dump when trig_type is FW_DBG_TRIGGER_DRIVER. Signed-off-by:

No need to pass the dbgfs_dir just to assign it to mvm. Assign to mvm and then call iwl_mvm_dbgfs_register. This is a preparation towards the addition of a delayed op_mode_start flow. This will allow to split the op_mode_start flow. Registration to debugfs must happen after we register to mac80211 and the registration to mac80211 will soon be delayed in certain cases. In order not to have to remember the debugfs_dir in a separate variable, just set it into the mvm structure so that it can be usable later. Declare mvm->debugfs_dir in the iwl_mvm structure even when IWLWIFI_DEBUGFS isn't enabled to simplify the source code. Signed-off-by:
