      ath9k: Fix beacon miss handling · 167bf96d
      Sujith Manoharan authored
      The NoA duration for a GO is half the beacon interval
      and a concurrent context like a STA can be active only
      for that duration, before switching back to the GO's
      operating channel.
      
      Currently, when multiple beacons are missed, the dwell
      time for the STA context is extended to improve the
      chances of receiving a beacon. But the NoA is not updated
      and this will cause problems since the GO is offline
      for a period that is longer than the advertised duration.
      
      Fix this by ensuring that the NoA is updated first before
      extending the time slot for the STA context. Also make
      sure that non-periodic NoA is used for a one-time, longer
      absence period.

      ath9k: Fix channel switch time duration · 4899827d
      Sujith Manoharan authored
      Since the NoA duration is the maximum time the GO interface
      can be offline, it needs to include the time take to
      switch channels in the HW.

      ath9k: Clear offchannel duration properly · 124130d7
      Sujith Manoharan authored
      Clearing the offchannel duration value in the
      scheduler unconditionally breaks NoA when
      multiple contexts are active and an offchannel
      request is deferred, for example, in a scan run.
      
      Fix this by clearing the duration only if there
      is no pending offchannel request.

      * The index has to incremented only when advertising
        a new NoA schedule.
      
      * Switch to non-periodic NoA when starting a scan operation
        and multiple channel contexts are active.
      
      * Make sure that periodic NoA is advertised again when
        scan ends. Since the offchannel timer moves the offchannel
        state to IDLE after the GO operating channel becomes
        active, use a flag "force_noa_update" to update the
        NoA contents.

      ath9k: Assign offchannel duration properly · cbc775db
      Sujith Manoharan authored
      In multi-channel mode, an offchannel request will
      be deferred if both contexts are active. The duration
      of the offchannel operation is calculated but is
      not stored in the scheduler state. Fix this.

      Reason is the following: when removing Rx vring
      (wil_netdev_ops.ndo_stop -> wil_stop -> wil_down -> __wil_down -> wil_rx_fini),
      Rx interrupt occurs. It trigger Rx NAPI, calling wil_rx_handle() that reaps
      (already cleaned) buffer, causing skb referring to garbage memory being set into reorder buffer.
      Then, network stack trying to access this buffer and fails.
      
      Prevent Rx NAPI from being scheduled if device going to stop. Bit wil_status_napi_en reflects
      NAPI enablement state, check it when triggering Rx NAPI.
      
      Testing shows that check for wil_status_napi_en sometimes gets negative, and new error message
      get printed - in this case kernel oops would be observed. Original oops is no more reproducible.
      
      This change requires also changes in the AP flows.
      Properly enable/disable NAPI for the AP. Make sure Rx VRING is disabled
      when resetting target.
      
      For this, promote __wil_up() and __wil_down() to the module scope, and use it
      in the relevant flows.
