Silently ignore repetitive scheduling of recovery work and commands being passed to the bus when the HW is not available. This can happen many times during recovery and slow it down. It also spams the kernel logs. Signed-off-by: Arik Nemtsov <arik@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: Eliad Peller <eliad@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

Each AP has its own global and broadcast links, so when checking for active sta count (according to the active_link_count) we must take them all into account. Signed-off-by: Eliad Peller <eliad@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

mac80211 unsets the default wep key on disassoc. The fw doesn't support this notification, so simply ignore it. The actual flow actually triggers fw recovery in some cases, as mac80211 unsets the default key only after disassoc, when wlvif->sta.hlid, resulting in invalid hlid being passed to the fw.

12xx chips allow only OFDM rates in AP mode for BT-Coex purposes. This is no longer required in 18xx chips, starting with FW 8.6.0.0.8.

Bump the min wl18xx fw version to 8.8.0.0.13 This fw is not backward compatible with older firmware (due to api changes), so use bump the firmware name as well. Some modifications were done to the driver-fw api in order to support multiple APs. Additionally, some of the consts (such as max stations, max links and max RX BA sessions) were changed.

Each hw supports a different iface combinations. Define the supported combinations in each driver, and save it in wl->iface_combinations. Since each driver defines its own combinations now, it can also define its max supported channels, so we no longer need to save and set it explicitly in wlcore. Update wl18xx interface combinations to allow multiple APs. Signed-off-by: Eliad Peller <eliad@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

Upcoming fw versions will have different max links support (according to the hw). Get ready for it by configuring wl->num_links per-hw, instead of using the const WL12XX_MAX_LINKS. However, continue using WLCORE_MAX_LINKS in order to simplify structs declarations (we use it in multiple bitmaps, and converting them to dynamic arrays is just cumbersome).

Instead of splitting the fw_status into 2 and using some complex calculations, read the fw status and let each low-level driver (wl12xx/wl18xx) convert it into a common struct. This is required for the upcoming fw api changes, which break the current logic anyway. Signed-off-by: Eliad Peller <eliad@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

It seems the wl18xx FW sometimes sends spurious changes on the PSM state of the broadcast HLID. This causes us to search for a station on a non-peer link and fail, causing warnings in our log.

Sometimes a tx_flush during suspend fails, but the FW manages to flush out the packets during the time when the host is supsended. Cancel the Tx-watchdog on suspend to not cause a spurious recovery on resume for that case. Set a flag to reinit the watchdog on the first Tx after resume, so we'll still recover if the FW is not empty and there's indeed a problem.

zero rx_filter_enabled array after recovery to avoid cases were the driver will keep trying to clear a filter which is not configured in FW. Such case will cause consecutive recoveries due to command execution failures.

During deauthenticate/link lost event, disable all TDLS links as TDLS would not work when infra connection is not active.

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.

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.

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.
