Fix sending rx_buf_sz to ath11k_dp_tx_htt_rx_filter_setup() to enable pktlog full or lite mode. Depending on mode update the trace buffer with log type full/lite. Pktlog lite is a lighter version of pktlog. This can be used to capture PPDU stats. These are useful for firmware performance debugging. pktlog lite dumps are enabled using, echo "0x0 1" > ath11k/IPQ8074 hw2.0/mac0/pktlog_filter Tested On: IPQ8074 hw2.0 AHB WLAN.HK.2.1.0.1-01233-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1 v2 Signed-off-by:

Add support for rx decapsulation offload by advertising the support to mac80211 during registration. Also ensure the frames have the RX_FLAG_8023 flag set in decap offload frames before passing to mac80211. Since the packets delivered to the driver are in 802.3 format, these can be sent to the network core with minimal processing in mac80211. This helps in releasing some CPU cycles in the host processor and thereby improving the performance. Two exceptions are made before passing decap frames, one is for EAPOL packets since mac80211 8023 fast rx for the sta is set only after authorization, other case is for multicast packets to validate PN in mac80211. In both the cases the decap frames are converted to 80211 frame and sent to mac80211. Ethernet decap can be enabled by using frame_mode modparam: insmod ath11k frame_mode=2 Tested-on: IPQ8074 hw2.0 AHB WLAN.HK.2.5.0.1-00844-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1 v2 Co-developed-by:

The ath11k_dbring_bufs_replenish() and ath11k_dbring_fill_bufs() take a "gfp" parameter but they since they take spinlocks, the allocations they do have to be atomic. This causes a bug because ath11k_dbring_buf_setup passes GFP_KERNEL for the gfp flags. The fix is to use GFP_ATOMIC and remove the unused parameters.

There is a regular need in the kernel to provide a way to declare having a dynamically sized set of trailing elements in a structure. Kernel code should always use "flexible array members"[1] for these cases. The older style of one-element or zero-length arrays should no longer be used[2]. Refactor the code a bit according to the use of a flexible-array member in struct scan_chan_list_params instead of a one-element array, and use the struct_size() helper. Also, save 25 (too many) bytes that were being allocated: $ pahole -C channel_param drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath11k/reg.o struct channel_param { u8 chan_id; /* 0 1 */ u8 pwr; /* 1 1 */ u32 mhz; /* 2 4 */ /* Bitfield combined with next fields */ u32 half_rate:1; /* 4:16 4 */ u32 quarter_rate:1; /* 4:17 4 */ u32 dfs_set:1; /* 4:18 4 */ u32 dfs_set_cfreq2:1; /* 4:19 4 */ u32 is_chan_passive:1; /* 4:20 4 */ u32 allow_ht:1; /* 4:21 4 */ u32 allow_vht:1; /* 4:22 4 */ u32 allow_he:1; /* 4:23 4 */ u32 set_agile:1; /* 4:24 4 */ u32 psc_channel:1; /* 4:25 4 */ /* XXX 6 bits hole, try to pack */ u32 phy_mode; /* 8 4 */ u32 cfreq1; /* 12 4 */ u32 cfreq2; /* 16 4 */ char maxpower; /* 20 1 */ char minpower; /* 21 1 */ char maxregpower; /* 22 1 */ u8 antennamax; /* 23 1 */ u8 reg_class_id; /* 24 1 */ /* size: 25, cachelines: 1, members: 21 */ /* sum members: 23 */ /* sum bitfield members: 10 bits, bit holes: 1, sum bit holes: 6 bits */ /* last cacheline: 25 bytes */ } __attribute__((__packed__)); as previously, sizeof(struct scan_chan_list_params) was 32 bytes: $ pahole -C scan_chan_list_params drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath11k/reg.o struct scan_chan_list_params { u32 pdev_id; /* 0 4 */ u16 nallchans; /* 4 2 */ struct channel_param ch_param[1]; /* 6 25 */ /* size: 32, cachelines: 1, members: 3 */ /* padding: 1 */ /* last cacheline: 32 bytes */ }; and now with the flexible array transformation it is just 8 bytes: $ pahole -C scan_chan_list_params drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath11k/reg.o struct scan_chan_list_params { u32 pdev_id; /* 0 4 */ u16 nallchans; /* 4 2 */ struct channel_param ch_param[]; /* 6 0 */ /* size: 8, cachelines: 1, members: 3 */ /* padding: 2 */ /* last cacheline: 8 bytes */ }; This helps with the ongoing efforts to globally enable -Warray-bounds and get us closer to being able to tighten the FORTIFY_SOURCE routines on memcpy(). This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle and audited and fixed, manually.

In IPQ8074, actual FFT bin size is two bytes but hardware reports it with extra pad size of two bytes for each FFT bin. So finally each FFT bin advertise as four bytes size in the collected data. This FFT pad is not advertised in IPQ6018 platform. To accommodate this different behavior across the platforms, introduce the hw param fft_pad_sz and use it in spectral process. Also group all the spectral params under the new structure in hw param structure for scalable in future.

For 160 MHz, nss_ratio_enabled flag is added to indicate firmware supports sending NSS ratio information from firmware as a part of service ready ext event. Extract this NSS ratio info from service ready ext event and save this information in ath11k_pdev_cap to calculate NSS ratio. Current firmware configurations support two types of NSS ratio which is WMI_NSS_RATIO_1_NSS for QCN9074 and WMI_NSS_RATIO_1BY2_NSS for IPQ8074. Based on this two configuration, max supported NSS getting calculated. Move ath11k_peer_assoc_h_phymode() before ath11k_peer_assoc_h_vht() to get arg->peer_phymode updated.

Idle Mode Power Save (IMPS) is a power saving mechanism which when called by wcn36xx will cause the radio hardware to enter power collapse. This particular call maps nicely to a simple conjunction/disjunction around IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_IDLE and IEEE80211_CONF_IDLE. Here we enter idle when we are not associated with an AP. The kernel will incrementally toggle idle on/off in the process of trying to establish a connection, thus saving power until we are connected to the AP again, at which point we give way to BMPS if power_save is on. We've validated that with IMPS an apq8039 device which has the wcn36xx module loaded but, has not authenticated with an AP will get to VMIN on suspend and will not without IMPS. Signed-off-by:

We have been tracking a strange bug with Antenna Diversity Switching (ADS) on wcn3680b for a while. ADS is configured like this: A. Via a firmware configuration table baked into the NV area. 1. Defines if ADS is enabled. 2. Defines which GPIOs are connected to which antenna enable pin. 3. Defines which antenna/GPIO is primary and which is secondary. B. WCN36XX_CFG_VAL(ANTENNA_DIVERSITY, N) N is a bitmask of available antenna. Setting N to 3 indicates a bitmask of enabled antenna (1 | 2). Obviously then we can set N to 1 or N to 2 to fix to a particular antenna and disable antenna diversity. C. WCN36XX_CFG_VAL(ASD_PROBE_INTERVAL, XX) XX is the number of beacons between each antenna RSSI check. Setting this value to 50 means, every 50 received beacons, run the ADS algorithm. D. WCN36XX_CFG_VAL(ASD_TRIGGER_THRESHOLD, YY) YY is a two's complement integer which specifies the RSSI decibel threshold below which ADS will run. We default to -60db here, meaning a measured RSSI <= -60db will trigger an ADS probe. E. WCN36XX_CFG_VAL(ASD_RTT_RSSI_HYST_THRESHOLD, Z) Z is a hysteresis value, indicating a delta which the RSSI must exceed for the antenna switch to be valid. For example if HYST_THRESHOLD == 3 AntennaId1-RSSI == -60db and AntennaId-2-RSSI == -58db then firmware will not switch antenna. The threshold needs to be -57db or better to satisfy the criteria. F. A firmware feature bit also exists ANTENNA_DIVERSITY_SELECTION. This feature bit is used by the firmware to report if ANTENNA_DIVERSITY_SELECTION is supported. The host is not required to toggle this bit to enable or disable ADS. ADS works like this: A. Every XX beacons the firmware switches to or remains on the primary antenna. B. The firmware then sends a Request-To-Send (RTS) packet to the AP. C. The firmware waits for a Clear-To-Send (CTS) response from the AP. D. The firmware then notes the received RSSI on the CTS packet. E. The firmware then repeats steps A-D on the secondary antenna. F. Subsequently if the RSSI on the measured antenna is better than ASD_TRIGGER_THRESHOLD + the active antenna's RSSI then the measured antenna becomes the active antenna. G. If RSSI rises past ASD_TRIGGER_THRESHOLD then ADS doesn't run at all even if there is a substantially better RSSI on the alternative antenna. What we have been observing is that the RTS packet is being sent but the MAC address is a byte-swapped version of the target MAC. The ADS/RTS MAC is corrupted only when the link is encrypted, if the AP is open the RTS MAC is correct. Similarly if we configure the firmware to an RTS/CTS sequence for regular data - the transmitted RTS MAC is correctly formatted. Internally the wcn36xx firmware uses the indexes in the SMD commands to populate and extract data from specific entries in an STA lookup table. The AP's MAC appears a number of times in different indexes within this lookup table, so the MAC address extracted for the data-transmit RTS and the MAC address extracted for the ADS/RTS packet are not the same STA table index. Our analysis indicates the relevant firmware STA table index is "bssSelfStaIdx". There is an STA populate function responsible for formatting the MAC address of the bssSelfStaIdx including byte-swapping the MAC address. Its clear then that the required STA populate command did not run for bssSelfStaIdx. So taking a look at the sequence of SMD commands sent to the firmware we see the following downstream when moving from an unencrypted to encrypted BSS setup. - WLAN_HAL_CONFIG_BSS_REQ - WLAN_HAL_CONFIG_STA_REQ - WLAN_HAL_SET_STAKEY_REQ Upstream in wcn36xx we have - WLAN_HAL_CONFIG_BSS_REQ - WLAN_HAL_SET_STAKEY_REQ The solution then is to add the missing WLAN_HAL_CONFIG_STA_REQ between WLAN_HAL_CONFIG_BSS_REQ and WLAN_HAL_SET_STAKEY_REQ. No surprise WLAN_HAL_CONFIG_STA_REQ is the routine responsible for populating the STA lookup table in the firmware and once done the MAC sent by the ADS routine is in the correct byte-order. This bug is apparent with ADS but it is also the case that any other firmware routine that depends on the "bssSelfStaIdx" would retrieve malformed data on an encrypted link.

On most embedded ath9k devices (like range extenders, routers, accesspoints, ...) the calibration data is stored in a MTD partitions named "ART", or "caldata"/ "calibration". Since commit 4b361cfa ("mtd: core: add OTP nvmem provider support"): All MTD partitions are all automatically available through the nvmem subsystem. This feature - together with an nvmem cell definition either in the platform data or via device-tree allows drivers to get the data necessary for initializing the WIFI, without having to wait around for the filesystem and userspace to do the extractions.

Pull CPU hotplug updates from Thomas Gleixner: "Updates for the SMP and CPU hotplug: - Remove DEFINE_SMP_CALL_CACHE_FUNCTION() which is a left over of the original hotplug code and now causing trouble with the ARM64 cache topology setup due to the pointless SMP function call. It's not longer required as the hotplug callbacks are guaranteed to be invoked on the upcoming CPU. - Remove the deprecated and now unused CPU hotplug functions - Rewrite the CPU hotplug API documentation" * tag 'smp-urgent-2021-09-12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: Documentation: core-api/cpuhotplug: Rewrite the API section cpu/hotplug: Remove deprecated CPU-hotplug functions. thermal: Replace deprecated CPU-hotplug functions. drivers: base: cacheinfo: Get rid of DEFINE_SMP_CALL_CACHE_FUNCTION() -

Merge tag 'char-misc-5.15-rc1-lkdtm' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc Pull misc driver fix from Greg KH: "Here is a single patch for 5.15-rc1, for the lkdtm misc driver. It resolves a build issue that many people were hitting with your current tree, and Kees and others felt would be good to get merged before -rc1 comes out, to prevent them from having to constantly hit it as many development trees restart on -rc1, not older -rc releases. It has NOT been in linux-next, but has passed 0-day testing and looks 'obviously correct' when reviewing it locally :)" * tag 'char-misc-5.15-rc1-lkdtm' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc: lkdtm: Use init_uts_ns.name instead of macros
