Alex Romosan reported that since the mac80211 changes in "mac80211: start auth/assoc timeout on frame status" and the subsequent fixes in "mac80211: fix auth/assoc timeout handling" (commits 1672c0e3 and 89afe614) there's sometimes an issue connecting to a 5 GHz network with the iwlwifi DVM driver. The reason appears to be that since these commits any bad TX status makes mac80211 immediately try again, causing all of the authentication attempts to be quickly rejected by the firmware as it hasn't heard a beacon yet. Before, it would wait for the timeout regardless of status. To fix this, invoke the passive-no-RX workaround when not associated yet as well. This will cause the first frame to get lost, but then the driver will stop the queues and the second attempt will only be transmitted after hearing a beacon, thus delaying it appropriately to not make the firmware reject it again.

There is a race between the restart flow and the workers. The workers are cancelled after the fw is already killed and might send HCMD when there is fw to handle them. Simply check that there is a fw to which the HCMD can be sent before actually sending it.

Recently in commit 8a964f44 ("iwlwifi: always copy first 16 bytes of commands") we fixed the problem that the hardware writes back to the command and that could overwrite parts of the data that was still needed and would thus be corrupted. Investigating this problem more closely we found that this write-back isn't really ordered very well with respect to other DMA traffic. Therefore, it sometimes happened that the write-back occurred after unmapping the command again which is clearly an issue and could corrupt the next allocation that goes to that spot, or (better) cause IOMMU faults. To fix this, allocate coherent memory for the first 16 bytes of each command, containing the write-back part, and use it for all queues. All the dynamic DMA mappings only need to be TO_DEVICE then. This ensures that even when the write-back happens "too late" it can't hit memory that has been freed or a mapping that doesn't exist any more. Since now the actual command is no longer modified, we can also remove CMD_WANT_HCMD and get rid of the DMA sync that was necessary to update the scratch pointer.

For VHT, many more bandwidth changes are possible. As a first step, stop toggling the IEEE80211_HT_CAP_SUP_WIDTH_20_40 flag in the HT capabilities and instead introduce a bandwidth field indicating the currently usable bandwidth to transmit to the station. Of course, make all drivers use it. To achieve this, make ieee80211_ht_cap_ie_to_sta_ht_cap() get the station as an argument, rather than the new capabilities, so it can set up the new bandwidth field. If the station is a VHT station and VHT bandwidth is in use, also set the bandwidth accordingly. Doing this allows us to get rid of the supports_40mhz flag as the HT capabilities now reflect the true capability instead of the current setting. While at it, also fix ieee80211_ht_cap_ie_to_sta_ht_cap() to not ignore HT cap overrides when MCS TX isn't supported (not that it really happens...)

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.

With new transports coming up, move to threaded interrupt handling now. This has the advantage that we can use the same locking scheme with all different transports we may need to implement. Note that the TX path obviously still runs in a tasklet, so some spin_lock() calls need to change to spin_lock_bh() calls to properly lock out the TX path. In my test on a Calpella platform this has no impact on throughput or latency. Also add lockdep annotations to avoid lockups due to catch sending synchronous commands or using locks that connect with them from the irq thread.

Currently, when the driver requires the DTIM period, mac80211 will wait to hear a beacon before association. This behavior is suboptimal since some drivers may be able to deal with knowing the DTIM period after the association, if they get it at all. To address this, notify the drivers with bss_info_changed with the new BSS_CHANGED_DTIM_PERIOD flag when the DTIM becomes known. This might be when changing to associated, or later when the entire association was done with only probe response information. Rename the hardware flag for the current behaviour to IEEE80211_HW_NEED_DTIM_BEFORE_ASSOC to more accurately reflect its behaviour. IEEE80211_HW_NEED_DTIM_PERIOD is no longer accurate as all drivers get the DTIM period now, just not before association.

The rate scaling won't treat the information in a frame with IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU set if IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU is cleared. But all the frames coming from an AGG tx queue have IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU set, and IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU is set only if the frame was sent in an AMPDU. This means that all the data in frames in AGG tx queues that aren't sent as an AMPDU is thrown away. This is even more harmful when in bad link conditions, the frames are sent in an AMPDU and then finally sent as single frame. So a lot of failures weren't reported and the rate scaling got stuck in high rates leading to very poor connectivity. Fix that by clearing IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU when the frame isn't part of an AMPDU. This bug was introduced by 2eb81a40 iwlwifi: don't clear CTL_AMPDU on frame status This fix basically reverts the aforementioned commit.

When TX aggregation is stopped, there are a few different cases: - connection with the peer was dropped - session stop was requested locally - session stop was requested by the peer - connection was dropped while a session is stopping The behaviour in these cases should be different, if the connection is dropped then the driver should drop all frames, otherwise the frames may continue to be transmitted, aggregated in the case of a locally requested session stop or unaggregated in the case of the peer requesting session stop. Split these different cases so that the driver can act accordingly; however, treat local and remote stop the same way and ask the driver to not send frames as aggregated packets any more. In the case of connection drop, the stop callback the driver is otherwise supposed to call is no longer required. Signed-off-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

We know that we have issues with the fw in the reclaim path. This is why iwl_reclaim doesn't complain too loud when it happens since it is recoverable. Somehow, the caller of iwl_reclaim however WARNed when it happens. This doesn't make any sense. When I digged into the history of that code, I discovered that this bug occurs only when we receive a BA notification. So move the W/A in the BA notification handling code where it was before.

As mwifiex (and mac80211 in the software case) are the only drivers actually implementing remain-on-channel with channel type, userspace can't be relying on it. This is the case, as it's used only for P2P operations right now. Rather than adding a flag to tell userspace whether or not it can actually rely on it, simplify all the code by removing the ability to use different channel types. Leave only the validation of the attribute, so that if we extend it again later (with the needed capability flag), it can't break userspace sending invalid data.
