TX might be handled in the threaded IRQ handler, in which case, TX work might be scheduled just to discover it has nothing to do. Save a few context switches by cancelling redundant TX work in case TX is about to be handled in the threaded IRQ handler. Also, avoid scheduling TX work from wl1271_op_tx if not needed.

The interrupt of the wl12xx is a level interrupt in nature, since the interrupt line is not auto-reset. However, since resetting the interrupt requires bus transactions, this cannot be done from an interrupt context. Thus, requesting a level interrupt would require to disable the irq and re-enable it after the HW is acknowledged. Since we now request a threaded irq, this can also be done by specifying the IRQF_ONESHOT flag. Triggering on an edge can be problematic in some platforms, if the sampling frequency is not sufficient for detecting very frequent interrupts. In case an interrupt is missed, the driver will hang as the interrupt line will stay high until it is acknowledged by the driver, which will never happen. Fix this by requesting a level triggered interrupt, with the IRQF_ONESHOT flag.

To achieve maximal throughput, it is very important to react to interrupts as soon as possible. Currently the interrupt handler wakes up a worker for handling interrupts in process context. A cleaner and more efficient design would be to request a threaded interrupt handler. This handler's priority is very high, and can do blocking operations such as SDIO/SPI transactions. Some work can be deferred, mostly calls to mac80211 APIs (ieee80211_rx_ni and ieee80211_tx_status). By deferring such work to a different worker, we can keep the irq handler thread more I/O responsive. In addition, on multi-core systems the two threads can be scheduled on different cores, which will improve overall performance. The use of WL1271_FLAG_IRQ_PENDING & WL1271_FLAG_IRQ_RUNNING was changed. For simplicity, always query the FW for more pending interrupts. Since there are relatively long bursts of interrupts, the extra FW status read overhead is negligible. In addition, this enables registering the IRQ handler with the ONESHOT option.

The SDIO bus is claimed and released for each SDIO transaction. In addition to the few CPU cycles it takes to claim and release the bus, it may also cause undesired side effects such as the MMC host stopping its internal clocks. Since only the wl12xx_sdio driver drives this SDIO card, it is safe to claim the SDIO host once (on power on), and release it only when turning the power off. This patch was inspired by Juuso Oikarinen's (juuso.oikarinen@nokia.com) patch "wl12xx: Change claiming of the (SDIO) bus".

On newer hardware revisions, there is no need to write the host's counter at the end of a RX transaction. The same applies to writing the number of packets at the end of a TX transaction. It is generally a good idea to avoid unnecessary SDIO/SPI transfers. Throughput and CPU usage are improved when avoiding these. Send the host's RX counter and the TX packet count only if needed, based on the hardware revision.

The FW has a limited amount of memory for holding frames. In case it runs out of memory reserved for RX frames, it'll have no other choice but to drop packets received from the AP. Thus, it is important to handle RX data interrupts as soon as possible, before handling anything else. In addition, since there are enough TX descriptors to go around, it is better to first send TX frames, and only then handle TX completions. Fix this by changing the order of function calls in wl1271_irq_work.

Runtime PM might not always be enabled. Even if it is enabled in the running kernel, it can still be temporarily disabled, for instance during suspend. Runtime PM is opportunistic in nature, and should not be relied on for toggling power. In case the interface is removed and re-added while runtime PM is disabled, the FW will fail to boot, as it is mandatory to toggle power between boots. For instance, this can happen during suspend in case one of the devices fails to suspend before the MMC host suspends, but after mac80211 was suspended. The interface will be removed and reactivated without toggling the power. Fix this by calling mmc_power_save_host/mmc_power_restore_host in wl1271_sdio_power_on/off functions. It will toggle the power to the chip even if runtime PM is disabled. The runtime PM functions should still be called to make sure runtime PM does not opportunistically power the chip off (e.g. after resuming from system suspend).

The return value of the tx operation is commonly misused by drivers, leading to errors. All drivers will drop frames if they fail to TX the frame, and they must also properly manage the queues (if they didn't, mac80211 would already warn). Removing the ability for drivers to return a BUSY value also allows significant cleanups of the TX TX handling code in mac80211. Note that this also fixes a bug in ath9k_htc, the old "return -1" there was wrong.

Update the PS mode of each link according to a bitmap polled from fw_status. Manually notify mac80211 about PS mode changes in connected stations. mac80211 will only be notified about PS start when the station is in PS and there is a small number of TX blocks from this link ready in HW. This is required for waking up the remote station since the TIM is updated entirely by FW.

Check the conditions for the high/low TX queue watermarks when the spin-lock is taken. This prevents race conditions as tx_queue_count and the flag checked are only modified when the spin-lock is taken. The following race was in mind: - Queues are almost full and wl1271_op_tx() will stop the queues, but it doesn't get the spin-lock yet. - (on another CPU) tx_work_locked() dequeues 15 skbs from this queue and tx_queue_count is updated to reflect this - wl1271_op_tx() does not check tx_queue_count after taking the spin-lock and incorrectly stops the queue.

The passive scan channel dwell time currently used is 30-60TU. A typical beacon interval for AP's is 100TU. This leads to a ~30% worst-case probability of finding an AP via passive scanning. For 5GHz bands for DFS frequencies passive scanning is the only scanning option. Hence for these, the probability of finding an AP is very low. To fix this, increase the passive channel scan dwell times (also the early leave value, as 5GHz channels are still typically very silent.) Use a value of 100TU, because that covers most typical AP configurations. Based on testing the probability of finding an AP (100TU beacon interval) on a single scan round are as follows (based on 100 iterations): dwell min/max (TU) | probability ---------------------+------------ 30/60 | 35% 60/60 | 56% 80/80 | 77% 100/100 | 100% Total scan times now and after the change: Region | Before (s) | After (s) -------+------------+---------- 00 | 0.77 | 1.48 FI | 0.95 | 2.01 US | 0.91 | 1.76 Signed-off-by: NJuuso Oikarinen <juuso.oikarinen@nokia.com> Reviewed-by: NLuciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com> Signed-off-by: NLuciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>
