Some sdio chips of rome QCA6174's regulatory domain code of EEPROM is
empty, then ath_is_world_regd will return false for this case, and
it will lead function __ath_reg_dyn_country not work, thus the regdomain
will not update for NL80211_REGDOM_SET_BY_COUNTRY_IE type, it result
ath10k set the same regdomain/reg_5ghz_ctl/reg_2ghz_ctl to firmware,
then the tx power will not changed with different regdomain's AP. The
regulatory domain code of EEPROM of some QCA6174 PCIE chip is 0x6c, it
means world wide regdomain, for this chip, it does not have the issue.
For empty reulatory domain code chip, set it to world regulatory domain
in functio ath_regd_sanitize, then it will fix the issue.

For max bundle size 32, the bundle mask is not same with 8/16.
Change it to match the max bundle size of htc. Otherwise it
will not match with firmware, for example, when bundle count
is 17, then flags of ath10k_htc_hdr is 0x4, if without this
patch, it will be considered as non-bundled packet because it
does not have mask 0xF0, then trigger error message later:
payload length 56747 exceeds max htc length: 4088.
htc->max_msgs_per_htc_bundle is the min value of
HTC_HOST_MAX_MSG_PER_RX_BUNDLE and
msg->ready_ext.max_msgs_per_htc_bundle of ath10k_htc_wait_target,
it will be sent to firmware later in ath10k_htc_start, then
firmware will use it as the final max rx bundle count, in
WLAN.RMH.4.4.1-00029, msg->ready_ext.max_msgs_per_htc_bundle
is 32, it is same with HTC_HOST_MAX_MSG_PER_RX_BUNDLE, so the

For tcp RX, the quantity of tcp acks to remote is 1/2 of the quantity
of tcp data from remote, then it will have many small length packets
on TX path of sdio bus, then it reduce the RX packets's bandwidth of
tcp.
This patch enable napi on RX path, then the RX packet of tcp will not
feed to tcp stack immeditely from mac80211 since GRO is enabled by
default, it will feed to tcp stack after napi complete, if rx bundle
is enabled, then it will feed to tcp stack one time for each bundle
of RX. For example, RX bundle size is 32, then tcp stack will receive
one large length packet, its length is neary 1500*32, then tcp stack
will send a tcp ack for this large packet, this will reduce the tcp
acks ratio from 1/2 to 1/32. This results in significant performance
improvement for tcp RX.
Tcp rx throughout is 240Mbps without this patch, and it arrive 390Mbps
with this patch. The cpu usage has no obvious difference with and
without NAPI.

Rework event_create_dir() to use an array of static data instead of
function pointers where possible.
The problem is that it would call the function pointer on module load
before parse_args(), possibly even before jump_labels were initialized.
Luckily the generated functions don't use jump_labels but it still seems
fragile. It also gets in the way of changing when we make the module map
executable.
The generated function are basically calling trace_define_field() with a
bunch of static arguments. So instead of a function, capture these
arguments in a static array, avoiding the function call.
Now there are a number of cases where the fields are dynamic (syscall
arguments, kprobes and uprobes), in which case a static array does not
work, for these we preserve the function call. Luckily all these cases
are not related to modules and so we can retain the function call for
them.
Also fix up all broken tracepoint definitions that now generate a
compile error.

ath11k is a new driver for Qualcomm IEEE 802.11ax devices, first
supporting only IPQ8074 SoC using the shared memory AHB bus. ath11k
uses mac80211 and supports AP, Station and Mesh modes.
Even though ath11k has some similar code as with ath10k (especially
the WMI layer) it was concluded to be simpler to have a "clean start"
for ath11k code base and not try to share the code with ath10k. This
makes maintenance easier and avoids major changes in ath10k, which
would have significantly increased the risk of regressions in existing
setups.
Even though the driver is very similar with ath10k but there are major
differences as well. The datapath is completely different. ath11k
supports multiple MACs, called "soc" in the firmware interface. And
there's only one WMI interface to support.
Currently ath11k supports only IEEE 802.11ac mode, but patches for
802.11ax are available and they will be submitted after ath11k is
accepted to upstream.
The firmware images are available from ath11k-firmware repository but
they will be also submitted to linux-firmware:
https://github.com/kvalo/ath11k-firmware
This was tested with firmware version WLAN.HK.2.1.0.1-00629-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1.
The driver has had multiple authors who are listed in alphabetical
order below.

There is a check on the retry counter invalid_buf_id_retry that is always
false because invalid_buf_id_retry is initialized to zero on each iteration
of a while-loop. Fix this by initializing the retry counter before the
while-loop starts.
