Disallowing any wmi commands while re-initializing the firmware results in connection failures after recovery is done in open/WEP mode. To fix this, clear WMI_READY, to make sure no wmi command is tried while fw is down. Remove ATH6KL_STATE_RECOVERY state check in ath6kl_control_tx() so that any configuration during fw init time will go through using wmi commands.

This patch adds support to detect fw error condition by sending periodic message (heart beat challenge) to firmware. Upon reception of the message, fw would send a response event to driver. When there are no reponses from fw for about 5 cmd driver would trigger the recovery logic assuming that fw has gone into an error state. Capable fw will advertise this capability through ATH6KL_FW_CAPABILITY_HEART_BEAT_POLL bit. This feature is disabled by default, can be enabled through a modparam (heart_beat_poll). This modparam also confiures the polling interval in msecs. Signed-off-by: Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan <vthiagar@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@qca.qualcomm.com>

The MSB of rate index from FW is used for sgi. But the ath6kl_wmi_get_rate doesn't handle it. The access to wmi_rate_tbl array may be out of range if sgi is 1. This may cause the return value of ath6kl_wmi_get_rate() function is incorrect link rate.

This patch reflects changes in the firmware scheduled scan implementation to behave better in cases with multiple concurrent vifs. Major changes: - scheduled scan filters and state are now programmed per-vif. - decouple scheduled scan from host sleep. To maintain graceful failure with old firmwares, a new firmware capability bit is introduced: ATH6KL_FW_CAPABILITY_SCHED_SCAN_V2. ath6kl simply won't advertise scheduled scan to cfg80211 if the SCHED_SCAN_V2 is not supported. Since firmwares from here on out won't support the previous implicit API for scheduled scan (set WoW filters and host sleep), bump the firmware API to protect old drivers. Unfortunately, due to firmware RAM constraints ath6kl still cannot expect a scan complete event at the end of a scheduled scan results cycle, so the sched_scan_timer is retained.

If the firmware decides to initiate a channel switch on an AP vif running an RSN BSS, reconfigure the saved RSN IE capabilities as well. Fixes a bug where the beacon and 4-way handshake would have a capability mismatch after a channel switch, since the firmware apparently clears these on an AP disconnect.

When an ath6kl STA vif is issued a connect command, the firmware will disconnect all other beaconing vifs in preparation for a potential channel switch. The case where the connect fails is currently unhandled, so if a connection attempt on a STA vif fails and any vifs were waiting for a new channel, simply restart the concurrent vifs on their previous channel. Requires that we start tracking the last issued channel in ar->last_ch, which is valid since ath6kl only supports 1 channel at a time. Also clear the beaconing vif's want_ch_switch bit regardless of whether channel switch succeeds, to stop recommitting the same failed profile.

Only WoW filters for the first vif were being set, causing failures to wake up on any concurrent connected vifs. Handle all per-vif suspend and resume tasks. Since cfg80211 issues user wow filters on a per-wiphy basis, set any custom filters on all connected vifs. Starting WoW in firmware and setting host sleep mode is still handled on a global per-phy level. The first vif is always used for bookkeeping regardless of whether it is connected or not. WoW is cancelled if no connected vifs are found. No firmware capability bits or API bump is needed for this patch, as setting filters for vifs with index > 0 will simply overwrite the index 0 filters in the current implementation. While not correct, this is identical to the existing behavior. kvalo: fix a checkpatch warning in ath6kl_wow_resume() Signed-off-by: Thomas Pedersen <c_tpeder@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@qca.qualcomm.com>

ath6kl was incorrectly assuming that IEEE80211_NUM_BANDS will always be 2 and used that also in the firmware WMI interface definitions. But after the support for 60 GHz was added to cfg80211 IEEE80211_NUM_BANDS changed to 3 and this can cause all sort of problems, possibly even memory corruption. I only found this during code review and didn't notice any bugs, but I'm sure there are a few lurking somewhere. To fix this rename unused A_NUM_BANDS to ATH6KL_NUM_BANDS, which is always defined to be 2, and use that in WMI. Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@qca.qualcomm.com>

As of now the ANI cycle is executed only when the chip is awake. On idle state case, the station wakes up from network sleep for beacon reception. Since most of the time, ANI cycle is not syncing with beacon wakeup, ANI cycle is ignored. Approx 5 mins once, the calibration is performed. This could affect the connection stability when the station is idle for long. Even though the OFDM and CCK phy error rates are too high, ANI is unable to tune its immunity level as quick enough due to rare execution. Here the experiment shows that OFDM and CCK levels are at default even on higher phy error rate. listenTime=44 OFDM:3 errs=121977/s CCK:2 errs=440818/s ofdm_turn=1 This change ensures that ANI calibration will be exectued atleast once for every 10 seconds. The below result shows improvements and immunity levels are adopted quick enough. listenTime=557 OFDM:4 errs=752/s CCK:4 errs=125/s ofdm_turn=0 Signed-off-by: Rajkumar Manoharan <rmanohar@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

This patch changes the way the driver deals with command responses and traps which are sent through the special interrupt input endpoint 3. While the carl9170 firmware does not use this endpoint for command responses or traps, the firmware loader on the device does. It uses it to notify the host about 'watchdog triggered' in case the firmware/hardware has crashed. Note: Even without this patch, the driver is still able to detect the mishap and reset the device. But previously it did that because the trap event caused an out-of-order message sequence number error, which also triggered a reset.
