2017-04-26nl80211: allow multiple active scheduled scan requestsArend Van Spriel
This patch implements the idea to have multiple scheduled scan requests running concurrently. It mainly illustrates how to deal with the incoming request from user-space in terms of backward compatibility. In order to use multiple scheduled scans user-space needs to provide a flag attribute NL80211_ATTR_SCHED_SCAN_MULTI to indicate support. If not the request is treated as a legacy scan. Drivers currently supporting scheduled scan are now indicating they support a single scheduled scan request. This obsoletes WIPHY_FLAG_SUPPORTS_SCHED_SCAN.

2017-04-25iwlwifi: mvm: support station type APISara Sharon
Support change to ADD_STA API to support station types. Each station is assigned its type. This simplifies FW handling of the broadcast and multicast stations: * broadcast station is identified by its type and not the mac address. * multicast queue is no longer treated differently. The opening and closing of it is done by referring to its station. There is no need to specify it in the MAC command. * When disabling TX to all station driver can disable the traffic on multicast station, so FW doesn't have to do it. Change is backward compatible. Change the order of adding and removing the stations according to FW requirements. Signed-off-by: Sara Sharon <sara.sharon@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Luca Coelho <luciano.coelho@intel.com>

2017-04-11iwlwifi: mvm: add multicast stationSara Sharon
Currently multicast queue is associated with the broadcast station. This raises quite a few issues: The multicast queue has a special treatment: - It is sent in the MAC context command - It is excluded from tfd_queue_mask In DQA mode we end up enabling two queues - the probe response queue and the multicast queue - with the same station (broadcast) and TID while in DQA mode it should be unique RA-TID. Firmware will enforce it for a000 devices, so this allocation will fail. In addition, in a000 devices the FW will set the FIFO and not the driver. So there is a need for FW to know when we enable the queue that it is multicast queue so it will be bound to the multicast FIFO. There is no such way in current design. In order to simplify driver and firmware handling of this queue create a multicast station. This solves the unique RA-TID issue in the short term and serves as preparation for the long term. In the long term we will also add a flag marking this station for the FW as the multicast station. Once we will do that the FW will know this is the multicast queue immediately when it is added and bind it to the correct FIFO. It will also enable removing the special treatment of the queue in the MAC context command. Signed-off-by: Sara Sharon <sara.sharon@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Luca Coelho <luciano.coelho@intel.com>
2017-04-11iwlwifi: mvm: cleanup pending frames in DQA modeSara Sharon
When a station is asleep, the fw will set it as "asleep". All queues that are used only by one station will be stopped by the fw. In pre-DQA mode this was relevant for aggregation queues. However, in DQA mode a queue is owned by one station only, so all queues will be stopped. As a result, we don't expect to get filtered frames back to mac80211 and don't have to maintain the entire pending_frames state logic, the same way as we do in aggregations. The correct behavior is to align DQA behavior with the aggregation queue behaviour pre-DQA: - Don't count pending frames. - Let mac80211 know we have frames in these queues so that it can properly handle trigger frames. When a trigger frame is received, mac80211 tells the driver to send frames from the queues using release_buffered_frames. The driver will tell the fw to let frames out even if the station is asleep.

2017-02-08iwlwifi: mvm: Fix CSA received immediately after associationAvraham Stern
The session protection set for association is only removed when BSS_CHANGED_BEACON_INFO is set and BSS_CHANGED_ASSOC is not set. However, mac80211 may set both on association (in case a beacon was already received). In this case, mac80211 will not set BSS_CHANGED_BEACON_INFO on the next beacons because it has already notified the beacon change, so the session protection is never removed (until the session protection ends). When a CSA is received within this time, the station will fail to folllow the channel switch because it cannot schedule the time event. Fix this by removing the session protection when BSS_CHANGED_BEACON_INFO and BSS_CHANGED_ASSOC are both set.

2017-02-06iwlwifi: mvm: release static queues on bcast releaseLiad Kaufman
A few of the static queues are enabled along with the bcast STA. Make sure they are removed along with it, rather than waiting for the mac ctxt release. This is needed because we sometimes have a STA being removed and then added again (either with the same sta_id or a different one). If we wait for the mac ctxt release we will try to allocate the queues again (as this is currently done in the STA allocation and not in the MAC init) although they weren't freed, and even if the sta_id of the STA has changed.

2017-02-03iwlwifi: mvm: set AID to firmware only for associated stationsJohannes Berg
The firmware will soon actually look at the AID field, and when it does that it'll try to ensure that the AID is never changing. Due to the way the station is added, it may start with an invalid AID before it's associated, so to ensure a constant AID (once it becomes non-zero), track the station state and set the AID only when the station is associated and when it disassociates.

2017-02-03iwlwifi: mvm: support unification of INIT and RT imagesSara Sharon
For a000 devices the INIT and RT images are unified to one image. The changes in the flow are the following: * Driver load only RT firmware - meaning that the nvm access command will be done in the RT image load flow. * A new command (NVM_ACCESS_COMPLETE) now signals to the FW that the driver is done accessing the NVM and FW can proceed with phy calibrations. * Phy DB is no longer sent from INIT FW to be restored by driver for the RT FW - all the phy DB is now internal to the FW. INIT complete will now follow the NVM access command, without phy DB calls before. * Paging command is sent earlier in the flow before NVM access to enable a complete load of FW. * caution must be care when restart is called since we may have not completed init flow even though we are in RT firmware.

2016-10-19iwlwifi: mvm: assign cab queue to the correct stationSara Sharon
Currently when configuring the cab queue the scheduler is configured without station id - which results in station id 0. In DQA mode this causes firmware to assert later on when the actual station 0 is added with an empty tfd_queue_mask. Fix that by configuring the queue to the broadcast station. This is a bit trickier since the queue should not be included in the tfd_queue_mask of the ADD_STA since it is a multicast queue, and the tfd_queue_mask is only unicast queue. As a result the queue should be enabled only after the broadcast station is added. Signed-off-by: Sara Sharon <sara.sharon@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Luca Coelho <luciano.coelho@intel.com>
2016-10-19iwlwifi: mvm: use firmware station PM notification for AP_LINK_PSJohannes Berg
When using RSS on 9000 series devices, we can't rely on processing the received frames for station powersave handling, since they could be processed on different CPUs and out of order. In order to still manage the powersave of stations, the firmware sends a notification on sleep->wake, wake->sleep and - for U-APSD - frames received with PM while already sleeping (with the TID.) With this, the driver can set AP_LINK_PS, which is required for real parallel RX. In addition, this requires checking for PS-Poll frames and calling ieee80211_sta_pspoll() appropriately.

However, iwl_mvm_rx_queue_notif() never woke up the wait queue, with the result of the counter value being checked only when the timeout expired. This may cause a latency of up to 1 second.

2016-05-10iwlwifi: mvm: add reorder buffer per queueSara Sharon
Next hardware will direct packets to core based on the TCP/UDP streams. This logic can create holes in reorder buffer since packets that belong to other stream were directed to a different core. However, those are valid holes and the packets can be indicated in L3 order. The hardware will utilize a mechanism of informing the driver of the normalized ssn and the driver shall release all packets that SN is lower than the nssn. This enables managing the reorder across the queues without sharing any data between them. The reorder buffer is allocated and released directly in the RX path in order to avoid various races between control path and rx path. The code utilizes the internal messaging to notify rx queues of when to delete the reorder buffer.

2016-05-10iwlwifi: mvm: add infrastructure for tracking BA session in driverSara Sharon
According to the spec when a BA session is started there is a timeout set for the session in the ADDBA request. If there is not activity on the TA/TID then the session expires and a DELBA is sent. In order to check for the timeout, data must be shared among the rx queues. Add a timer that runs as long as BA session is active for the station and stops aggregation session if needed. This patch also lays the infrastructure for the reordering buffer which will be enabled in the next patches.

2016-05-10iwlwifi: mvm: change RX sync notification to be an attribute and not a typeSara Sharon
Currently the sync notification is a type of notification. However, it is better fitted as an attribute of a notification, since there might be another message in the payload (delba for instance) that should be sent while control path is waiting for all queues to process.

2016-05-10iwlwifi: mvm: implement driver RX queues sync commandSara Sharon
mac80211 will call the driver whenever there is a race between RSS queues and control path that requires a processing of all pending frames in RSS queues. Implement that by utilizing the internal notification mechanism: queue a message to all queues. When the message is received on a queue it decrements the atomic counter. This guarantees that all pending frames in the RX queue were processed since the message is in order inside the queue.
