This patch adds support for handling of PCIe sleep cookie depending upon device properties. Some PCIe devices need sleep cookie probing before accessing HW while some others don't. A new sleep_cookie variable is defined as part of mwifiex_pcie_card_reg strcture and set/reset as per device capability. Sleep cookie is allocated/accessed/freed only when flag sleep_cookie for this particular device is enabled.

As the number of drivers in the rtlwifi family has grown, the Kconfig section for them has grown unwieldy. This change has two effects: (1) Variable RTLWIFI_DEBUG is documented, and (2) the entries for the drivers that depend on RTLWIFI are indented.

This partially reverts commit 44ba9736. rate_control_rate_init assumes the rate_init member of struct rate_control_ops is not NULL therefore not initializing it leads to an oops as soon the driver succesfully associates to an AP. The removal of rate_update from 44ba9736 is ok because rate_update is checked for NULL before being called.

In managed mode, the HT/VHT capabilities aren't set when the station is initially added, so update the station when it is marked associated. In AP/GO mode, the station will typically be added with full capabilities today, but an upcoming change in hostapd may mean a similar scenario as for managed mode, therefore do the update unconditionally.

Now that mac80211 no longer starts the auth/assoc timeouts when it transmits the frame, but only when the frame status arrives, we no longer need to wait for the session protection time event to start, we can schedule it and enqueue the auth/assoc frame right away. This reduces the amount of time we block mac80211's workqueue. Also, since now we no longer need different behavior for session protection and P2P time events, refactor the code to have just a common implementation.

If we haven't heard a beacon before we associate we can still start the association process and set the MAC in the firmware to associated only after having received a beacon with DTIM period by reacting to the new change flag (BSS_CHANGED_DTIM_PERIOD) from mac80211.

Implement proper WoWLAN wakeup and query the wakeup reasons, then report them to userspace. Note that this is tricky: a firmware bug (that has been fixed in later versions) means that the status command response isn't properly closed in hardware and thus won't arrive at the host. Sending another command after it closes the status response but the next command gets stuck, etc. We reset the device after querying though, so this is not a big issue, just makes for strange code.

We've got a couple of races when enabling powersave with an AP for off-channel operation. The first is fairly simple. If we go off-channel before the nullfunc frame to enable PS is transmitted then it may not be received by the AP. Add a flush after enabling off-channel PS to prevent this from happening. The second race is a bit more subtle. If the driver supports QoS and has frames queued when the nullfunc frame is queued, those frames may get transmitted after the nullfunc frame. If PM is not set then the AP is being told that we've exited PS before we go off-channel and may try to deliver frames. To prevent this, add a flush after stopping the queues but before passing the nullfunc frame to the driver.

Scans currently work by stopping the netdev tx queues but leaving the mac80211 queues active. This stops the flow of incoming packets while still allowing mac80211 to transmit nullfunc and probe request frames to facilitate scanning. However, the driver may try to wake the mac80211 queues while in this state, which will also wake the netdev queues. To prevent this, add a new queue stop reason, IEEE80211_QUEUE_STOP_REASON_OFFCHANNEL, to be used when stopping the tx queues for off-channel operation. This prevents the netdev queues from waking when a driver wakes the mac80211 queues. This also stops all frames from being transmitted, even those meant to be sent off-channel. Add a new tx control flag, IEEE80211_TX_CTL_OFFCHAN_TX_OK, which allows frames to be transmitted when the queues are stopped only for the off-channel stop reason. Update all locations transmitting off-channel frames to use this flag. Signed-off-by: Seth Forshee <seth.forshee@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

This patch defines PCIe ring buffer array pointer as void instead of mwifiex_pcie_buf_desc. This will enable us to use same pointers for ring operations instead of new structures if buffer descriptor structure changes. Also split out event buffer descriptor structure from struct mwifiex_pcie_buf_desc. For PCIe8766 TX/RX buffer descriptor is same as evevt buffer descriptor. Newer chips could use different TX/RX buffer descriptor while event descriptor remains the same.

This patch adds support for storing PCIe device specific data into driver_data structure of pci_device_id. When a device with known device_id is probed, we use this driver_data to populate card specific structres in driver. This enables to remove device specific defines for scratch registers, firmware name, FW download block size, etc. from source code. This will make addition of support for new chipsets a lot easier.

On joining an existing IBSS network, beaconing has to start only after a TSF sync has happened by receiving a beacon from the BSS. In creator mode, beaconing can start immediately after a HW reset has been done. Now that mac80211 notifies the driver of the mode type (creator/joiner) via ieee80211_bss_conf->ibss_creator, make use of it to properly setup the HW beacon timers.

From the MEI code, we now pass the MEI id back to the driver probe routine, and we also pass a name and a MEI id table through the mei_bus_driver structure.

The band field for the supported channels were left unpopulated, making them default to 0 == IEEE80211_BAND_2GHZ, even for the 5GHz channels. This resulted in null pointer accesses if anything tries to access wiphy->bands[channel->band] of a 5GHz channel on 5GHz only cards, since wiphy->bands[2GHZ] is NULL for them (e.g. cfg80211_chandef_usable does).
