There are slight differences in Rx hw descriptor information among different chips. So far driver does not use those new information for any functionalities, but there is one important information which is available from QCA99X0 onwards to indicate the number of bytes that hw padded at the begining of the rx payload and this information is needed to undecap the rx packet. Add an abstraction for Rx desc to make use of the new desc information available. The callback that this patch defines to retrieve the padding bytes will be used in follow-up patch.

IFTYPE_MESH_POINT need to rely on these for accurate path selection metrics. Other modes will probably also find them useful. Enabling peer stats has the side effect of reducing max number of STAs from 128 to 118. There should be negligible performance impact. If users really need 128 STAs and don't mind losing out on peer stats, they can still disable them: echo 0 > debugfs/ieee80211/phyn/ath10k/peer_stats Signed-off-by: Thomas Pedersen <twp@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@qca.qualcomm.com>

carl9170_usb_stop() is used from several places to flush and cleanup any pending work. The normal pattern is to send a request and wait for the irq handler to call complete(). The completion is not reinitialized during normal operation and as the old comment indicates it is important to keep calls to wait_for_completion_timeout() and complete() balanced. Calling complete_all() brings this equilibirum out of balance and needs to be fixed by a reinit_completion(). But that opens a small race window. It is possible that the sequence of complete_all(), reinit_completion() is faster than the wait_for_completion_timeout() can do its work. The wake up is not lost but the done counter test is after reinit_completion() has been executed. The only reason we don't see carl9170_exec_cmd() hang forever is we use the timeout version of wait_for_copletion(). Let's fix this by reinitializing the completion (that is just setting done counter to 0) just before we send out an request. Now, carl9170_usb_stop() can be sure a complete() call is enough to make progess since there is only one waiter at max. This is a common pattern also seen in various drivers which use completion.

The ath6kl driver attempts to get the txpower value from the radio by first clearing the existing stored value and then watching the value to become non-zero. APs allow setting client power to values from -127..127, but this radio is not capable of setting values less then 0 and so will report txpower as 0dbm for both negative and 0 client power values. When the radio has txpower set to 0dbm txpower (equivalent to 1mw) the ath6kl_cfg80211_get_txpower() function will remain in the wait_event_interruptible_timeout() loop waiting for the value to be non-zero, and will eventually timeout. This results in a 5 second delay in response. However, the correct value of zero is eventually returned. The 6004 defaults to 63dbm which is then limited by regulatory and hardware limits with max of 18dbm (6003 max is 16dbm), therefore we can use values larger then these to be able to determine when the value has been updated. To correct the issue, set the value to a nonsensical value (255) and wait for it to change to the valid value. Tested on both 6003 and 6004 based radios. Return value of zero is correctly returned in an expected amount of time (similar to when returning non-zero values) when AP client power is set to both 0 and negative values.

commit 7a0adc83 ("ath10k: improve tx scheduling") is causing severe throughput drop in multi client mode. This issue is originally reported in veriwave setup with 50 clients with TCP downlink traffic. While increasing number of clients, the average throughput drops gradually. With 50 clients, the combined peak throughput is decreased to 98 Mbps whereas reverting given commit restored it to 550 Mbps. Processing txqs for every tx completion is causing overhead. Ideally for management frame tx completion, pending txqs processing can be avoided. The change partly reverts the commit "ath10k: improve tx scheduling". Processing pending txqs after all skbs tx completion will yeild enough room to burst tx frames.

Add NAPI support for rx and tx completion. NAPI poll is scheduled from interrupt handler. The design is as below - on interrupt - schedule napi and mask interrupts - on poll - process all pipes (no actual Tx/Rx) - process Rx within budget - if quota exceeds budget reschedule napi poll by returning budget - process Tx completions and update budget if necessary - process Tx fetch indications (pull-push) - push any other pending Tx (if possible) - before resched or napi completion replenish htt rx ring buffer - if work done < budget, complete napi poll and unmask interrupts This change also get rid of two tasklets (intr_tq and txrx_compl_task). Measured peak throughput with NAPI on IPQ4019 platform in controlled environment. No noticeable reduction in throughput is seen and also observed improvements in CPU usage. Approx. 15% CPU usage got reduced in UDP uplink case.

Commit 97f2645f ("tree-wide: replace config_enabled() with IS_ENABLED()") mostly did away with config_enabled(). This is one of the postponed TODO items as config_enabled() is used for a tristate option here. Theoretically, config_enabled() is equivalent to IS_BUILTIN(), but I guess IS_REACHABLE() is the best fit for this case because both CONFIG_HWMON and CONFIG_ATH10K are tristate.

In the wake tx queue path, we are not checking if the frame to be sent takes management path or not. For eg. QOS null func frame coming here will take the management path. Since we are not incrementing the descriptor counter (num_pending_mgmt_tx) w.r.t tx management, on tx completion it is possible to see negative values. When the above counter reaches a negative value, we will not be sending a probe response out. if (is_presp && ar->hw_params.max_probe_resp_desc_thres < htt->num_pending_mgmt_tx) For IPQ4019, max_probe_resp_desc_thres (u32) is 24 is compared against num_pending_mgmt_tx (int) and the above condtions comes true if the counter is negative and we drop the probe response. To avoid this, check on the wake tx queue path as well for the tx path of the frame and increment the appropriate counters Fixes: cac08552 "ath10k: move mgmt descriptor limit handle under mgmt_tx" Signed-off-by: Ashok Raj Nagarajan <arnagara@qti.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@qca.qualcomm.com>

txqs_lock is interfering with wake_tx_queue submitting more frames. so queues don't get filled in and don't keep firmware/hardware busy enough. This change helps to reduce the txqs_lock contention and wake_tx_queue() blockage to being possible in txrx_unref(). To reduce turn around time of wake_tx_queue ops and to maintain fairness among all txqs, the callback is updated to push first txq alone from pending list for every wake_tx_queue call. Remaining txqs will be processed later upon tx completion. Below improvements are observed in push-only mode and validated on IPQ4019 platform. With this change, in AP mode ~10Mbps increase is observed in downlink (AP -> STA) traffic and approx. 5-10% of CPU usage is reduced. Major improvement is observed in 1-hop Mesh mode topology in 11ACVHT80. Compared to Infra mode, CPU overhead is higher in Mesh mode due to path lookup and no fast-xmit support. So reducing spin lock contention is helping in Mesh.

HW Rx filters and masks are not configured properly by firmware during boot sequences. The MAC_PCU_ADDR1 is set to 0s instead of 1s which allows the HW to ACK any frame that passes through MAC_PCU_RX_FILTER. The MAC_PCU_RX_FILTER itself is misconfigured on boot as well. The combination of these bugs ended up with the following manifestations: - "no channel configured; ignoring frame(s)!" warnings in the driver - spurious ACKs (transmission) on the air during firmware bootup sequences The former was a long standing and known bug originally though mostly harmless. However Marek recently discovered that this problem also involves ACKing *all* frames the HW receives (including beacons ;). Such frames are delivered to host and generate the former warning as well. This could be a problem with regulatory compliance in some rare cases (e.g. Taiwan which forbids transmissions on channel 36 which is the default bootup channel on 5Ghz band cards). The good news is that it'd require someone else to violate regulatory first to coerce our device to generate and transmit an ACK. The problem could be reproduced in a rather busy environment that has a lot of APs. The likelihood could be increased by injecting an msleep() of 5000 or longer immediately after ath10k_htt_setup() in ath10k_core_start(). The reason why the former warnings were only showing up seldom is because the device was either quickly reset again (i.e. during firmware probing) or wmi vdev was created (which fixes hw and fw states). It is technically possible for host driver to override adequate hw registers however this can't work reliably because the bug root cause lies in incorrect firmware state on boot (internal structure used to program MAC_PCU_ADDR1 is not properly initialized) and only vdev create/delete events can fix it. This is why the patch takes dummy vdev approach. This could be fixed in firmware as well but having this fixed in driver is more robust, most notably when thinking of users of older firmware such as 999.999.0.636.
