2014-11-23iwlwifi: mvm: Fix the keep_alive calculationAvri Altman
The driver must set the keep alive period regardless of power management state. The keep alive period must be greater or equal to both the NIC's maximum sleep period, and the listen interval. However, we were confusing time units (TU) and msec, so fix that.

2014-11-23iwlwifi: mvm: New skip over dtim policyAvri Altman
Our firmware scheduler suffers from false wake-up on 500 time units. that is if the dtim interval exceeds 500 time units, the fw wakes up, understands that the next wake-up event is still ahead, and if this event is more than 10msec in the future - goes back to sleep, otherwise - stay awake. For example, say that the beacon interval is 101 and the dtim period is 5, the dtim interval is 101 x 5 = 505, and we will stay awake for those extra 5msec. So on the one hand the dtim interval should be congruent to the beacon interval times the dtim period, and on the other should minimize the false wake-ups event. This change applies only to D0/D3 power modes. Signed-off-by: Avri Altman <avri.altman@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com>
2014-11-23iwlwifi: mvm: move deferred d0i3 exit to resume_complete opEliad Peller
The deferred d0i3 exit is currently implemented in the resume op, which is called when mac80211 starts its resume process. However, mac80211 still doesn't handle frames at this stage, which results in frames being dropped. Move the deferred d0i3 handling to the reconfig_complete callback, in order to make sure mac80211 is fully available at this point.

After the corresponding mac80211 patch, we can now report the airtime used for each transmitted packet and mac80211 will be able to implement WMM-AC with that information.
