This feature turns out to have an issue: it can take up to 8 seconds to
detect high throughput scenarios and to leave RX OMI bandwidth
reduction. This leads to throughput degradation.
Until the issues are fixed, remove the RX OMI implementation.

When connected to an AP, the PHY will typically be tuned to
a higher bandwidth than the beacons are transmitted on, as
they are normally only transmitted on 20 MHz. This can mean
that another STA is simultaneously transmitting on another
channel of the higher bandwidth, and apparently this energy
may be taken into account by the PHY, resulting in elevated
energy readings.
To work around this, track the firmware's corrected beacon
energy data and replace the RSSI in beacons by that. The
replacement happens for all beacons received in the context
of the current MAC or link (depending on FW version), in
which case the filters will drop all else. For a scan, which
is only tuning to 20 MHz channels, the MAC/link ID will be
one that isn't found (the AUX ID 4), and no correction will
be done (nor is it needed.)

For the iwlmld driver the RX command is using struct iwl_rx_mpdu_desc
and not the much older struct iwl_rx_mpdu_res_start. Adjust the value of
rx_mpdu_cmd_hdr_size accordingly so that the trace data is correct.

In case of an error during init, in_hw_restart will be set, but it will
never get cleared.
Instead, we will retry to init again, and then we will act like we are in a
restart when we are actually not.
This causes (among others) to a NULL pointer dereference when canceling
rx_omi::finished_work, that was not even initialized, because we thought
that we are in hw_restart.
Set in_hw_restart to true only if the fw is running, then we know that
FW was loaded successfully and we are not going to the retry loop.

The driver must not hold the wiphy mutex when unregistering the thermal
devices. Do not hold the lock for the call to iwl_mld_thermal_exit and
only do a lock/unlock to cancel the ct_kill_exit_wk work.
The problem is that iwl_mld_tzone_get_temp needs to take the wiphy lock
while the thermal code is holding its own locks already. When
unregistering the device, the reverse would happen as the driver was
calling thermal_cooling_device_unregister with the wiphy mutex already
held.
It is not likely to trigger this deadlock as it can only happen if the
thermal code is polling the temperature while the driver is being
unloaded. However, lockdep reported it so fix it.

The code currently passes only the specific image that should

From the moment that we have ALIVE, we can receive notification that
are handled asynchronously.
Some notifications (for example iwl_rfi_support_notif) requires an
operational FW. So we need to make sure that they were handled in
iwl_op_mode_mld_start before we stop the FW. Flush the async_handlers_wk
there to achieve that.
Also, if loading the FW in op mode start failed, we need to cancel
these notifications, as they are from a dead FW.
More than that, not doing so can cause us to access freed memory
if async_handlers_wk is executed after ieee80211_free_hw is called.
Fix this by canceling all async notifications if a failure occurred in
init (after ALIVE).

If iwl_mld_load_fw failed, we call iwl_mld_stop_fw which does, among the
others, iwl_trans_stop_device. But this is already called from
iwl_mld_load_fw's error path.
Since we do need the other stuff of iwl_mld_stop_fw to be done also in
the error path of iwl_mld_load_fw, just call it there.
This also makes the call to iwl_fw_flush_dumps in
iwl_mld_op_mope_start redundant, since it is the same as iwl_fw_dbg_stop_sync.

allocating mld->nvm_data used to be the last thing done in
iwl_mld_load_fw, so there was no need to free on any error path of
iwl_mld_load_fw.
But now iwl_mld_load_fw also calls iwl_mld_init_mcc, that can fail,
after allocating nvm->data. In that case, it is not freed.
As allocating the NVM data should only be done at op mode start anyway,
simply move it to there, where it is already freed in the right error
paths.

Since iwlmld claims wiphys to be self-managed, it needs to
have a regdomain registered before the wiphy is registered
to avoid issues when trying to get the regdomain, e.g. via
"iw phy phy0 reg get".
Move the initialization early, on every FW start not just
when starting to really operate it. This also requires the

iwlwifi is the driver of all Intel wifi devices since 2008.
Since then, the hardware has changed a lot, but the firmware
API has changed even more. The need to keep one driver that
supports all those different APIs led us to introduce a new
architecture circa 2012 which allowed us to keep the same
interface to the hardware (DMAs, Tx queues, etc...) with a
new layer to implement the mid-layer between mac80211 and
the firmware. The first component is called the 'transport'
and the latter is called 'operation_mode' a.k.a op_mode.
In 2013 we took advantage of the new architecture to
introduce iwlmvm which allowed us to implement the, then,
new firmware API. This op_mode supports 7260 and up, those
devices supports support at least VHT.
Since then, wifi evolved and so did the firmware. It became
much bigger and took a lot of functionality from the driver.
It became increasingly hard to keep the same op_mode for the
newest devices and we experienced frequent regressions on
older devices. In order to avoid those regressions and keep
the code maintainable, we decided it was about time to start
a new op_mode.
iwlmld is a new op_mode that supports BE200 or newer if the
firmware being used is 97.ucode or newer. If the user has
an older devices or BE200 with .96.ucode, iwlmvm will be
loaded. Of course, this op_mode selection is seamless.
All the features supported in iwlmvm are supported in
iwlmld besides a few seldom used use cases: injection and
Hotspot 2.0. Those are under work.
A few points about the implementation:
* iwlmld doesn't have any mutexes, it relies on the
wiphy_lock
* iwlmld is more "resource oriented": stations, links and
interfaces are allocated and freed only after all the
relevant flows are completed.
* Firmware notifications' sizes are validated in a more
structured way.
We would love to see this new op_mode merged in 6.15. The
firmware for this new driver (.97.ucode) is not yet publicly
available but it'll be sent very soon.
People eager to get an early version of this firmware can
contact Emmanuel at:
emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com
I've listed the people who directly contributed
code, but many others from various teams have
contributed in other ways.
