Mesh path metric needs tx rate information from ieee80211_tx_status()
call but in ath10k there is no mechanism to report tx rate information
via ieee80211_tx_status(), the tx rate is only accessible via
sta_statiscs() op.
Per peer tx stats has tx rate info available, Tx rate is available
to ath10k driver after every 4 PPDU sent in the air. For each PPDU,
ath10k driver updates rate informattion to mac80211 using
ieee80211_tx_rate_update().
Per peer txrate information is updated through per peer statistics
and is available for QCA9888/QCA9984/QCA4019/QCA998X only

When processing HTT_T2H_MSG_TYPE_RX_IN_ORD_PADDR_IND, if the length of a msdu
is larger than the tailroom of the rx skb, skb_over_panic issue will happen
when calling skb_put. In monitor mode, amsdu will be handled in this path, and
msdu_len of the first msdu_desc is the length of the entire amsdu, which might
be larger than the maximum length of a skb, in such case, it will hit the issue
upon.
To fix this issue, process msdu list separately for monitor mode.

Currently, the error handling for the call to function
ath10k_get_legacy_rate_idx() doesn't work because
*rate_idx* is of type u8 (8 bits, unsigned), which
makes it impossible for it to hold a value less
than 0.
Fix this by changing the type of variable *rate_idx*
to s8 (8 bits, signed).

ath.git patches for 4.20. Major changes:
ath10k
* retrieve MAC address from system firmware if provided
* support extended board data download for dual-band QCA9984
* extended per sta tx statistics support via debugfs
* average ack rssi support for data frames
* speed up QCA6174 and QCA9377 firmware download using diag Copy Engine
* HTT High Latency mode support needed by SDIO and USB support
* get STA power save state via debugfs
ath9k
* add reset functionality for airtime station debugfs file
Special HTT RX handling for high latency interfaces.
Since no DMA physical addresses are used in the RX ring
config message (this is not supported by the high latency
devices), no RX ring is allocated.
All RX skb's are allocated by the driver and passed directly
to mac80211 in the HTT RX indication handler.
A nice side effect of this is that no huge buffer will be
allocated with dma_alloc_coherent. On embedded systems with
limited memory resources, the allocation of the RX ring is
prone to fail.
Some tweaks made to "make it work":
Removal of protected bit in 802.11 header frame control field.
The chipset seems to do hw decryption but the frame_control
protected bit is still set.
This is necessary for mac80211 not to drop the frame.

Average ack rssi value is weighted average of ack rssi for

This feature is enabled by the host driver if firmware is capable.
After receiving event from host, firmware allocates the necessary
memory to store the ack_rssi for data packets during the init time.
After each successful transmission, If tx completion status is OK
and 24th bit is set in HTT message header then host will fetch the
ack_rssi else host can ignore the ack_rssi field.

- Number of MSDUs received with errors like decryption, crc, mic ,etc.
- Number of MSDUs dropped in the driver
- A-MPDU/A-MSDU subframe stats
- Number of MSDUS passed to mac80211
All stats other than A-MPDU stats are only for received data frames.
A-MPDU stats might have stats for management frames when monitor
interface is active where management frames are notified both in wmi
and HTT interfaces.
These per tid stats can be enabled with tid bitmask through a debugfs
like below
echo <tid_bitmask> > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phyX/ath10k/sta_tid_stats_mask

10.2.4 firmware branch (used in QCA988X) does not support
HTT_10_4_T2H_MSG_TYPE_PEER_STATS and that's why ath10k does not provide
tranmission rate statistics to user space, instead it just shows
hardcoded 6 Mbit/s. But pktlog firmware facility provides per peer tx
statistics. The firmware sends one pktlog event for every four
PPDUs per peer, which include:
* successful number of packets and bytes transmitted
* number of packets and bytes dropped
* retried number of packets and bytes
* rate info per ppdu
Firmware supports WMI_SERVICE_PEER_STATS, pktlog is enabled through
ATH10K_FLAG_PEER_STATS, which is nowadays enabled by default in ath10k.
This patch does not impact throughput.

work with firmware branch 10.2.4-1.0-00029

With current NAPI implementation, NAPI poll can deliver more frames
to net core than allotted budget. This may cause warning in napi_poll.
Remaining quota is not accounted, while processing amsdus in
rx_in_ord_ind and rx_ind queue. Adding num_msdus at last can not
prevent delivering more frames to net core. With this change,
all amdus from both in_ord_ind and rx_ind queues are processed and
enqueued into common skb list instead of delivering into mac80211.
Later msdus from common queue are dequeued and delivered depends on
quota availability. This change also simplifies the rx processing in

Rx data frames notified through HTT_T2H_MSG_TYPE_RX_IND and
HTT_T2H_MSG_TYPE_RX_FRAG_IND expect PN/TSC check to be done
on host (mac80211) rather than firmware. Rebuild cipher header
in every received data frames (that are notified through those
HTT interfaces) from the rx_hdr_status tlv available in the
rx descriptor of the first msdu. Skip setting RX_FLAG_IV_STRIPPED
flag for the packets which requires mac80211 PN/TSC check support
and set appropriate RX_FLAG for stripped crypto tail. Hw QCA988X,
QCA9887, QCA99X0, QCA9984, QCA9888 and QCA4019 currently need the
rebuilding of cipher header to perform PN/TSC check for replay
attack.
Please note that removing crypto tail for CCMP-256, GCMP and GCMP-256 ciphers
in raw mode needs to be fixed. Since Rx with these ciphers in raw
mode does not work in the current form even without this patch and
removing crypto tail for these chipers needs clean up, raw mode related
issues in CCMP-256, GCMP and GCMP-256 can be addressed in follow up
patches.

In napi_poll, the budget number is used to control the amount of packets
we should handle per poll to balance the resource in the system.
In the list of the amsdu packets reception, we check if there is budget
count left and handle the complete list of the packets, that it will have
chances the very last list will over the budget leftover.
So adding one more parameter - budget_left, this would help while
traversing the list to avoid handling more than the budget given.

The QCA4019 firmware 10.4-3.2.1-00050 reports only HT MCS rates between
0-9. But 802.11n MCS rates can be larger than that. For example a 2x2
device can send with up to MCS 15.
The firmware encodes the higher MCS rates using the NSS field. The actual
calculation is not documented by QCA but it seems like the NSS field can be
mapped for HT rates to following MCS offsets:
* NSS 1: 0
* NSS 2: 8
* NSS 3: 16
* NSS 4: 24
This offset therefore has to be added for HT rates before they are stored
in the rate_info struct.

Not clearing the previous tx bit rate status
results in a ambigous tx bit rate reporting to
mac80211/cfg80211, for example the previous bit
rate status would have been marked as legacy rate
, while the current rate would have been an HT/VHT
rate with the tx bit rate flags set and this results
in exporting tx bitrate as legacy rate but with HT/VHT
rate flags set, fix this by clearing the tx bitrate
status for each event. This also fixes the below
warning when we do:

commit 7a0adc83f3 ("ath10k: improve tx scheduling") is causing
severe throughput drop in multi client mode. This issue is originally
reported in veriwave setup with 50 clients with TCP downlink traffic.
While increasing number of clients, the average throughput drops
gradually. With 50 clients, the combined peak throughput is decreased
to 98 Mbps whereas reverting given commit restored it to 550 Mbps.
Processing txqs for every tx completion is causing overhead. Ideally for
management frame tx completion, pending txqs processing can be avoided.
The change partly reverts the commit "ath10k: improve tx scheduling".
Processing pending txqs after all skbs tx completion will yeild enough
room to burst tx frames.

Add NAPI support for rx and tx completion. NAPI poll is scheduled
from interrupt handler. The design is as below
- on interrupt
- schedule napi and mask interrupts
- on poll
- process all pipes (no actual Tx/Rx)
- process Rx within budget
- if quota exceeds budget reschedule napi poll by returning budget
- process Tx completions and update budget if necessary
- process Tx fetch indications (pull-push)
- push any other pending Tx (if possible)
- before resched or napi completion replenish htt rx ring buffer
- if work done < budget, complete napi poll and unmask interrupts
This change also get rid of two tasklets (intr_tq and txrx_compl_task).
Measured peak throughput with NAPI on IPQ4019 platform in controlled
environment. No noticeable reduction in throughput is seen and also
observed improvements in CPU usage. Approx. 15% CPU usage got reduced
in UDP uplink case.

It is expected that all pktlog events for 10.4 firmware based solutions
should come through CE8 where as in case of 10.2 firmware based solutions,
it should come through one of the HTT events (HTT_T2H_MSG_TYPE_PKTLOG).
But from experiments with 10.4 based solutions, it is observed that pktlog
event for ATH_PKTLOG_TYPE_TX_MSDU_ID is coming through HTT pktlog event.
Currently, we always parse with 10.2 pktlog header which will lead to
pktlog decoding issues (payload length mismatch exceptions)
For trace points, it is required to provide only the payload size. So
fixing this by simplifying the payload size calculation without the use of
ath10k pktlog headers.
While there, remove the unused ath10k pktlog headers.

The below warning message seems to hit occasionally with the following
combination (IPQ4019 + ACS scan) where we receive packets as a self peer
when hostapd does ACS when we bring up AP mode . ath10k has the below
fall back mechanism to fetch current operating channel in rx (it will
check for the next channel tracking variable if the current one is NULL)
[scan channel] --> [rx channel] --> [peer channel] -->
[vdev channel] --> [any vdev channel] --> [target oper channel]
'scan channel' and 'target operating channel' are directly fetched from
firmware events. All the others should be updated by mac80211.
During ACS scan we wouldn't have a valid channel context
assigned from mac80211 ('ar->rx_channel'), and also relying on
('ar->scan_channel') is not helpful (it becomes NULL when it goes to
BSS channel and also when the scan event is completed). In short we
cannot always rely on these two channel tracking variables.
'Target Operating Channel' (ar->tgt_oper_chan) seems to keep track of
the current operating even while we are doing ACS scan and etc. Hence
remove this un-necessary warning message and continue with
target_operating channel. At the worst case scenario when the target
operating channel is invalid (NULL) we already have an ath10k warning
message to notify we really don't have a proper channel configured in
rx to update the rx status("no channel configured; ignoring frame(s)!")

WARN_ON_ONCE when we receive packets for self peer when mac80211
had not assigned a proper channel context. This scenario happens
in QCA4019 when we start the AP via hostapd in background and start
it once again in the background without killing the previous instance!
This happens intermittently when we start / stop hostapd in a while loop
(incase the hostapd is not properly killed). This results in mac80211
chancontext to be unassigned, while the self peer continuous receive
packets in target operating channel. This results in lot of call traces
in the rx path. Make this as a WARN_ON_ONCE to avoid flooding the console
which result in rebooting low memory systems, while still reporting the
warning once that we are receiving packets in target operating channel and
to indicate that something is happening which is not the expected result.

Frames that are transmitted via MGMT_TX are using reserved descriptor
slots in firmware. This limitation is for the htt_mgmt_tx path itself,
not for mgmt frames per se. In 16 MBSSID scenario, these reserved slots
will be easy exhausted due to frequent probe responses. So for 10.4
based solutions, probe responses are limited by a threshold (24).
management tx path is separate for all except tlv based solutions. Since
tlv solutions (qca6174 & qca9377) do not support 16 AP interfaces, it is

Whenever firmware is configuring operating channel during scan or
home channel, channel change event will be indicated to host. In some
cases (device probe/ last vdev down), target will be configured to
default channel whereas host is unaware of target's operating channel.
This leads to packet drop due to unknown channel and kernel log will be
filled up with "no channel configured; ignoring frame(s)!". Fix that
by handling HTT_T2H_MSG_TYPE_CHAN_CHANGE event.

Until now only WMI originating mgmt frames were
reported to mac80211. Management frames on HTT
were basically dropped (except frames which looked
like management but had FCS error).
To allow sniffing all frames (including offloaded
frames) without interfering with mac80211
operation and states a new rx_flag was introduced
and is not being used to distinguish frames and
classify them for mac80211.

The current/old tx path design was that host, at
its own leisure, pushed tx frames to the device.
For HTT there was ~1000-1400 msdu queue depth.
After reaching that limit the driver would request
mac80211 to stop queues. There was little control
over what packets got in there as far as
DA/RA was considered so it was rather easy to
starve per-station traffic flows.
With MU-MIMO this became a significant problem
because the queue depth was insufficient to buffer
frames from multiple clients (which could have
different signal quality and capabilities) in an
efficient fashion.
Hence the new tx path in 10.4 was introduced: a
pull-push mode.
Firmware and host can share tx queue state via
DMA. The state is logically a 2 dimensional array
addressed via peer_id+tid pair. Each entry is a
counter (either number of bytes or packets. Host
keeps it updated and firmware uses it for
scheduling Tx pull requests to host.
This allows MU-MIMO to become a lot more effective
with 10+ clients.

On multicore systems, it is possible that txrx tasket can run
in parallel with pci tasklet (i.e smp affinity of ath10k irq is
assigned to multiple CPUs). Feeding and consuming from the same
rx completion list leads to txrx tasklet runs for longer period.
Prevent this by processing a snapshot of rx queue by moving list
into temporary list. Consecutive received frames will be processed
in next batch.

Received frame indications are queued into a skb list and latest
processed by txrx tasklet. This skb queue is protected by htt rx lock.
Since the entire rx processing till delivering frame to mac80211 and
replenish tasks are processed under rx_lock protection, there might be
some delay in queuing newly received rx frame into that list on
multicore systems. Optimize this by using skb list lock while accessing
rx completion queue instead of htt rx lock.

On multicore systems it was possible for the txrx
tasklet to keep on running for long periods of
time on a single CPU due to tx completion
processing. Another CPU could feed the running
tasklet for an indefinite amount of time.
The tasklet is now guaranteed to run a finite
amount of time and is limited by HTT CE Rx ring
depth.
This improves behavior when RPS is used on target
system and might improve TCP handling as well.

MU-MIMO Rx involves different interpretation of
the VHT-SIG-A compared to SU-MIMO.
The incorrect interpretation led ath10k to report
VHT MCS values greater than 9 which subsequently
prompted mac80211 to drop such frames. This
effectively broke Rx with MU-MIMO in many cases
and manifested with a kernel warning in the log
which looked like this:

This patch enables raw Rx/Tx encap mode to support software based
crypto engine. This patch introduces a new module param 'cryptmode'.
cryptmode:
0: Use hardware crypto engine globally with native Wi-Fi mode TX/RX
encapsulation to the firmware. This is the default mode.
1: Use sofware crypto engine globally with raw mode TX/RX
encapsulation to the firmware.
Known limitation:
A-MSDU must be disabled for RAW Tx encap mode to perform well when
heavy traffic is applied.
