    ath10k: report rssi of each chain to mac80211 for sdio · 7005eafc
    Wen Gong authored
    iw command only show rssi without each chain's rssi on sdio
    iw wlan0 station dump
    Station a0:40:a0:93:3e:de (on wlan0)
    signal:         -82 dBm
    signal avg:     -82 dBm
    
    after this patch, it will show each chain's rssi on sdio
    Station a0:40:a0:93:3e:de (on wlan0)
    signal:         -82 [-84, -88] dBm
    signal avg:     -82 [-84, -87] dBm
    
    For QCA6174 PCIe, the ppdu have the correct rssi of each chain, it
    indicate rssi of rx data by ath10k_htt_rx_h_signal. For sdio chip, the
    rssi of each chain stored in rx management reported by firmware, the
    ath10k_wmi_tlv_op_pull_mgmt_rx_ev which used for tlv wmi will get the
    rssi of each chain and stored them in wmi_mgmt_rx_ev_arg, then indicate
    them to mac80211. For non-tlv wmi chip, it will not get the rssi of each
    chain and not indicate to mac80211, for non-tlv wmi chip, this patch will
    not have impact. For tlv wmi chip, if the rssi of chain in mgmt is valid,
    it will be indicate to mac80211, tested with QCA6174 PCIe/SDIO, the rssi
    of 2 chain in mgmt is valid.
    
    rssi of chains in mgmt of QCA6174 SDIO:
    92096.652780: ath10k:ath10k_log_warn: ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1 rssi[0]:70
    92096.657324: ath10k:ath10k_log_warn: ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1 rssi[1]:68
    92096.662009: ath10k:ath10k_log_warn: ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1 rssi[2]:128
    92096.666647: ath10k:ath10k_log_warn: ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1 rssi[3]:128
    
    rssi of chains in mgmt of QCA6174 PCIe:
    [ 1581.049816] ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: mgmt rssi[0]:17
    [ 1581.049818] ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: mgmt rssi[1]:22
    [ 1581.049821] ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: mgmt rssi[2]:128
    [ 1581.049823] ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: mgmt rssi[3]:128
    
    after apply this patch, the iw's rssi of PCIe do not changed, result is
    same with before.
