If the device is removed and hotplug fails ioread32() will return 0xFFFFFFFF. In that case reading ringbuffer during device bringup led to out-of-bounds addressing of a ringbuffer array that in turn led to a paging failure. This could be reproduced by the following: * boot without acpi/prevent hotplug from working * insert and manually detect (pci rescan) the device * remove the device physically * load ath10k driver * kernel crashed Ringbuffer index reading is now protected by using an appropriate mask to prevent addressing an invalid array index.

This implements a limited subset of what can be reported in the survey dump. This can be used for assessing approximate channel load, e.g. for automatic channel selection. Signed-off-by: Michal Kazior <michal.kazior@tieto.com> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@qca.qualcomm.com>

Until now ath10k assumed 3 spatial streams. However some devices support only 2 spatial streams. This patch improves performance on devices that don't support 3 spatial streams. Signed-off-by: Michal Kazior <michal.kazior@tieto.com> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@qca.qualcomm.com>

It is more efficient to move just the 802.11 header instead of the whole payload in most cases. This has no measurable effect on modern hardware. It should improve performance by a few percent on hardware such as an Access Point that have a slow CPU compared to a typical desktop CPU.

If RTS and fragmentation threshold values are 0xFFFFFFFF they should be considered disabled and no min/max limits must be applied. This fixes some issues with throughput issues, especially with VHT.

This can be useful for testing. To perform a forced firmware crash write 'crash' to 'simulate_fw_crash' debugfs file. E.g. echo crash > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy1/ath10k/simulate_fw_crash Signed-off-by: Michal Kazior <michal.kazior@tieto.com> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@qca.qualcomm.com>

Restart the hardware if FW crashes. If FW crashes during recovery we leave the hardware in a "wedged" state to avoid recursive recoveries. When in "wedged" state userspace may bring interfaces down (to issue stop()) and then bring one interface (to issue start()) to reload hardware manually.

If the device is not running then there may be no FW at all to send the query to.

This fixes suspend-to-disk. The hardware is now re-initialized upon freeze/thaw properly. This also makes suspend/resume re-initialize the hardware as WoWLAN support is not done yet. With some little work it should be possible to support hw reconfiguration for hw/fw recovery. HW must be initialized once before registering to mac80211 because FW determinates what hw capabilities can be advertised.

This is necessary for hw reconfiguration to work. Since mac80211 is not calling remove_interface() is such case we must reset free_vdev_map.

Split up fw-related and hw-related suspension code. Although we don't advertise WoW support to mac80211 yet it's useful to keep the code in suspend/resume hooks. At this point there's no need to keep pci pm ops. In case of WoW mac80211 calls ath10k_suspend() which should take care of entering low-power mode. In case WoW is not available mac80211 will go through regular interface teradown and use start/stop.

mac80211 calls for rts/frag threshold hooks before any interface is brought back up again when resuming. We would set vdev parameters before given vdev is created lading to a FW crash. rts/frag thresholds will be re-set accordingly in add_interface() hook anyway.
