This patch adds key material V2 support to mwifiex. Newer FW supports this feature and FW KEY API version is used to determine which command structure needs to be used.

During deauthenticate/link lost event, disable all TDLS links as TDLS would not work when infra connection is not active. Also this will avoid an issue where ping to peer station doesn't work after reassociation to AP where we had created TDLS link in earlier association.

If TDLS link is 11ac enabled i.e. we as well as peer station supports VHT, configure seprate TX & RX window sizes during BA setup. So even if BSS does not support 11ac, we can use VHT capabilities and higher window sizes on direct link.

During TDLS setup request/response, if HW is 11ac capable, we add VHT Capability IEs in outgoing data frame. Also while processing received setup request/response, we preserve peer's 11ac capability retrieved from IEs. Patch also gets VHT parameters from config_station handlers and sets it to FW using TDLS config command.

This patch adds AMPDU support for TDLS link. We have set 11n capabilities including AMPDU parameters during ENABLE_LINK. We set a variable in RA list to indicate this as TDLS link. This patch uses these capabilities to know if AMPDU is allowed on TDLS link and enables AMPDU aggregation for TX and RX reording support for RA list for this peer.

1. If data packet is addressed to TDLS peer for which link is established, mark these packets with TDLS flag so that FW can send them on direct link instead of sending via AP. 2. If data packet is addressed to TDLS peer and TDLS setup is underway, move these packets to TDLS queue. 3. If this packet is TDLS setup packet, do not block it.

While TDLS link is being setup, few packets from this station to peer station may be buffered at AP. It may happen that once TDLS link is setup, packets sent from station to peer on direct link get delivered before traffic from AP arrives at peer station. This results into packet reordering issue at peer station. To avoid this, we hold data packets destined to TDLS peer during TDLS setup. These packets are moved to temperory TDLS TX queue. Upon successful TDLS setup, they are moved to RA list created for this peer. Upon failure, packets are moved back to AP's RA list for that particular TID.

This patch fixes a bug where we were checking for AP's AMPDU param setting even when transmitting traffic to associated station. Patch adds provision to pass additional parameter ra_list pointer to function which checks if AMPDU is allowed. If current BSS type is AP, we check station's AMPDU params else we check AP's AMPDU params.

The current mwifiex pcie driver assumed that it would get its cmdrsp_complete() callback called before another command was sent to unmap the command's skbuff. However, that is not true. The mwifiex_check_ps_cond() will send a sleep command to the card without having adapter->curr_cmd set. Within the workqueue's state machine the adapter's state would be set to allow commands (curr_cmd = NULL && cmd_sent = false) after having receieved the response from the sleep command. The card->cmd_buf would then be overridden with the new command but the first command's skbuff was not unmapped. This leaks mapped skbuffs when a bounce buffer is employed. To rectify this unmap the card->cmd_buf when the response is received from the card instead of waiting for the cmdrsp_complete() callback.

Depending on the underlying DMA implementation its not possible to partially unmap DMA buffers. Moreover its not possible to understand the intent of passing 0 as the size to dma unmap. The intent of this driver is unmap the entire skb buffer. The only way to ensure that the size matches on unmap is to store both the dma address and the size in the skb ca field. Introduce a mwifiex_dma_mapping structure which tracks the dma address and the size. Additionally, provide a mwifiex_unmap_pci_memory() that utilizes the new structure. This also provide symmetry within the internal API.

In extended scan, host gets scan results through one or multiple events instead of scan command response. Host will send next scan command when all the events are received.

'mwifiex_bcn_param' structure contains five parameters which are present in beacon buffer in case of legacy scan. 'rssi' field won't be there in this buffer for extended scan. Hence 'bssid' and 'rssi' are removed from the structure and it is renamed as 'mwifiex_fixed_bcn_param' so that we can have common parsing logic later for both.

IQ calibration post-processing for AR955x is different from other chips - instead of just doing it as part of AGC calibration once, it is triggered 3 times and a median is determined. This patch adds initial support for changing the calibration behavior for AR955x. Also, to simplify things, a helper routine to issue/poll AGC calibration is used. For non-AR955x chips, the iqcal_idx (which will be used in subsequent patches) is set to zero. Signed-off-by: Sujith Manoharan <c_manoha@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

There is no benefit in retaining the legacy rate control module in the driver codebase. It is known to be buggy and has less than optimal performance in real-world environments compared with minstrel. The only reason that it was kept when we made the switch to minstrel as default was that it showed higher throughput numbers in a clean/ideal environment. This is no longer the case and minstrel can push ath9k to the same throughput levels. In TCP, with 3-stream cards, more than 295 Mbps can be obtained in open air, with 2-stream cards, 210 Mbps is easily reached. To test performance issues, instead of using a broken rate control module, it is better to use the fixed-rate interface provided by mac80211 anyway. The ath9k RC has not received any bug fixes in years and is just bit-rotting away - this patch removes it. Signed-off-by: Sujith Manoharan <c_manoha@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
