      iwlwifi: automatically adjust sleep level · e312c24c
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      Depending on required latency requested by pm_qos (via mac80211)
      we can automatically adjust the sleep state. Also, mac80211 has
      a user-visible dynamic sleep feature where we are supposed to
      stay awake after sending/receiving frames to better receive
      response frames to our packets, this can be integrated into the
      sleep command.
      
      Currently, and this patch doesn't change that yet, we default
      to using sleep level 1 if PS is enabled. With a module parameter
      to iwlcore, automatic adjustment to changing network latency
      requirements can be enabled -- this isn't yet the default due
      to requiring more testing.
      
      The goal is to enable automatic adjustment and then go into the
      deepest possible sleep state possible depending on the networking
      latency requirements.
      
      This patch does, however, enable IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS
      to avoid the double-timer (one in software and one in the device)
      when transmitting -- the exact timeout may be ignored but that is
      not of big concern.
      
      Note also that we keep the hard-coded power indices around for
      thermal throttling -- the specification of that calls for using
      the specified power levels. Those can also be selected in debugfs
      to allow easier testing of such parameters.

      iwlwifi: refactor some thermal throttle code · 3ad3b92a
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      Some of the thermal throttle data structures and code
      are really very intermingled with the sleep (power)
      control code. They really do belong together in a way
      since the thermal throttle code uses powersaving to
      achieve its goal, but it's making it hard to work on
      the powersave code. Split this up to make that easier.
      I've also changed the antenna defines to an enum and
      used the same enum for RX and TX.

      iwlwifi: revert uCode Alive notification with timeout · c03ea162
      Reinette Chatre 提交于
      commit "iwlwifi: uCode Alive notification with timeout" introduced a more
      reliable mechanism for ucode loading. Unfortunately we hit a problem with
      it frequently enough to make a 4965 unusable. The problem can be seen in
      debug log below. What this code attempts is to set runtime ucode up to
      load, start a timer to wait for the alive response from runtime ucode, and
      if it times out it tries again. As can be seen below we receive the alive
      response and wake the waiting task _before_ the tasks starts waiting. The
      task thus times out as the alive response is not received while it is
      waiting for it and it restarts the device. This starts the cycle all over
      again.

      iwlwifi: re-introduce per device debugging · 3d816c77
      Reinette Chatre 提交于
      Commit "iwlwifi: make debug level more user friendly" cleaned up the
      debug level handling. In doing so it created a single global debug
      level for all devices. Some setups do consits of more that one iwlwifi
      device and in these setups there is a requirement that debug levels
      should be unique per device.
      
      We now re-introduce the per device debugging while maintaining the
      cleanup effort of the previous patch.
      
      The maintain the global debug level and now introduce a per-device debug
      level that will be used if it (the per-device debug level) is set. The
      per-device debug level can be controlled via the debug_level sysfs file
      while the global debug level is controlled by the debug module parameter.

      cfg80211: fix regression on beacon world roaming feature · 37184244
      Luis R. Rodriguez 提交于
      A regression was added through patch a4ed90d6:
      
      "cfg80211: respect API on orig_flags on channel for beacon hint"
      
      We did indeed respect _orig flags but the intention was not clearly
      stated in the commit log. This patch fixes firmware issues picked
      up by iwlwifi when we lift passive scan of beaconing restrictions
      on channels its EEPROM has been configured to always enable.
      
      By doing so though we also disallowed beacon hints on devices
      registering their wiphy with custom world regulatory domains
      enabled, this happens to be currently ath5k, ath9k and ar9170.
      The passive scan and beacon restrictions on those devices would
      never be lifted even if we did find a beacon and the hardware did
      support such enhancements when world roaming.
      
      Since Johannes indicates iwlwifi firmware cannot be changed to
      allow beacon hinting we set up a flag now to specifically allow
      drivers to disable beacon hints for devices which cannot use them.
      
      We enable the flag on iwlwifi to disable beacon hints and by default
      enable it for all other drivers. It should be noted beacon hints lift
      passive scan flags and beacon restrictions when we receive a beacon from
      an AP on any 5 GHz non-DFS channels, and channels 12-14 on the 2.4 GHz
      band. We don't bother with channels 1-11 as those channels are allowed
      world wide.
      
      This should fix world roaming for ath5k, ath9k and ar9170, thereby
      improving scan time when we receive the first beacon from any AP,
      and also enabling beaconing operation (AP/IBSS/Mesh) on cards which
      would otherwise not be allowed to do so. Drivers not using custom
      regulatory stuff (wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory()) were not affected
      by this as the orig_flags for the channels would have been cleared
      upon wiphy registration.
      
      I tested this with a world roaming ath5k card.

      iwlwifi: fix up command sending · c2acea8e
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      The current command sending in iwlwifi is a bit of a mess:
       1) there is a struct, iwl_cmd, that contains both driver
          and device data in a single packed structure -- this
          is very confusing
       2) the on-stack data and the command metadata share a
          structure by embedding the latter in the former, which
          is also rather confusing because it leads to weird
          unions and similarly odd constructs
       3) each txq always has enough space for 256 commands,
          even if only 32 end up being used
      
      This patch fixes these things:
       1) rename iwl_cmd to iwl_device_cmd and keep track of
          command metadata and device command separately, in
          two arrays in each tx queue
       2) remove the 'meta' member from iwl_host_cmd and only
          put in the required members
       3) allocate the cmd/meta arrays separately instead of
          embedding them into the txq structure

      Wey-Yi Guy 提交于
      Part 1 of Thermal Throttling Management -
      
      Thermal Throttling feature is used to put NIC into low power state when
      driver detect the Radio temperature reach pre-defined threshold
      
      Two Thermal Throttling Management Methods; this patch introduce the
      Legacy Thermal Management:
         IWL_TI_0: normal temperature, system power state
         IWL_TI_1: high temperature detect, low power state
         IWL_TI_2: higher temperature detected, lower power state
         IWL_TI_CT_KILL: critical temperature detected, lowest power state
      
      Once get into CT_KILL state, uCode go into sleep, driver will stop all
      the active queues, then move to IWL_TI_CT_KILL state; also set up 5
      seconds timer to toggle CSR flag, uCode wake up upon CSR flag change,
      then measure the temperature.
      If temperature is above CT_KILL exit threshold, uCode go backto sleep;
      if temperature is below CT_KILL exit threshold, uCode send Card State
      Notification response with appropriate CT_KILL status flag, and uCode
      remain awake, Driver receive Card State Notification Response and update
      the card temperature to the CT_KILL exit threshold.

      iwlwifi: make debug level more user friendly · a562a9dd
      Reinette Chatre 提交于
      * Deprecate the "debug50" module parameter used to obtain
        5000 series and up debugging. Replace it with "debug" module
        parameter to match with original driver and be consistent
        between them. The "debug50" module parameter can still be used,
        except that the module parameter is not writable in keeping
        with its previous state. We currently just mark it as "deprecated"
        and do not have it in the feature-removal-schedule. Some more
        cleanup of module parameters needs to be done and can then be
        entered together.
      
      * Only make "debug" module parameters visible if the driver
        is compiled with CONFIG_IWLWIFI_DEBUG. This will eliminate
        a lot of confusion where users think they have set debug flags
        but yet cannot see any debug output.
      
      * Make module parameters writable. This eliminates the need for the
        "debug_level" sysfs file, which can now also be deprecated and
        added to feature-removal-schedule. This file is in significant
        use though with many iwlwifi documents and text referring users
        to it. We can thus not take its removal lightly and keep it around.
      
      With iwlcore shared between iwlagn and iwl3945 we really do not need
      debug module parameters for each but can instead have one debug
      module parameter for the iwlcore module. The same issue is here as
      with the sysfs file - a lot of iwlwifi documentation and text (like
      bug reports) rely on iwlagn and iwl3945 having this module parameter,
      so changing this to a module parameter of iwlcore will have significant
      impact and we do not do this for that reason.
      
      One consequence of this patch is that if a user is running a system
      with both 3945 and later hardware then the setting of the one module
      parameter will affect the value of the other. The likelihood of this
      seems low - and even if this setup is present it does not seem like an
      issue for both modules to run with the same debug level.
