Sometimes the first TID in the first AC's list is not available for forming a new aggregate (the BAW might not allow it), however other TIDs may have data available for sending. Prevent a slowdown of other TIDs by going through multiple entries until we've either hit the last one or enough AMPDUs are pending in the hardware queue.

txtid->seq_start may not always be up to date, when there is HT non-AMPDU traffic just before starting an AMPDU session.

To improve aggregation length, there should not be more than two fully formed A-MPDU frames in the hardware queue. To ensure this, the code checks the tx queue length before forming new A-MPDUs. This can reduce the throughput (or maybe even starve out A-MPDU traffic) when too many non-aggregated frames are in the queue. Fix this by keeping track of pending A-MPDU frames (even when they're sent out as single frames), but exclude rate control probing frames to improve performance.

wireless-testing commit 04caf863 ('ath9k: more tx setup cleanups') merged tx path code for HT vs non-HT frames, however it did not pass the tid pointer to ath_tx_send_normal, causing an inconsistency between AMPDU vs non-AMPDU sequence number handling.

When ath_drain_all_txq fails to stop DMA, it issues a hw reset. This reset happens at a very problematic point in time, when the hardware rx path has not been stopped yet. This could lead to memory corruption, hardware hangs or other issues. To fix these issues, simply remove the reset entirely and check the tx DMA stop status to prevent problems with fast channel changes.

This feature is to mitigate the problem of certain 3 stream chips that exceed the PCIe power requirements.An EEPROM flag controls which chips have APM enabled which is basically read from miscellaneous configuration element of the EEPROM header. This workaround will reduce power consumption by using 2 Tx chains for Single and Double stream rates (5 GHz only).All self generated frames (regardless of rate) are sent on 2 chains when this feature is enabled(Chip Limitation).

Since the pointers after the rates in the tx info cannot be used anymore after frames have been queued, this area can be used to store information that was previously stored in the ath_buf. With these changes, we can delay the ath_buf assignment in the aggregation code until aggregates are formed. That will not only make it possible to simplify DMA descriptor setup to do less rewriting of uncached memory, but will also make it easier to move aggregation out of the core of the ath9k tx path.

The current ath9k tx queue handling code showed a few issues that could lead to locking issues, tx stalls due to stopped queues, and maybe even DMA issues. The main source of these issues is that in some places the queue is selected via skb queue mapping in places where this mapping may no longer be valid. One such place is when data frames are transmitted via the CAB queue (for powersave buffered frames). This is made even worse by a lookup WMM AC values from the assigned tx queue (which is undefined for the CAB queue). This messed up the pending frame counting, which in turn caused issues with queues getting stopped, but not woken again. To fix these issues, this patch removes an unnecessary abstraction separating a driver internal queue number from the skb queue number (not to be confused with the hardware queue number). It seems that this abstraction may have been necessary because of tx queue preinitialization from the initvals. This patch avoids breakage here by pushing the software <-> hardware queue mapping to the function that assigns the tx queues and redefining the WMM AC definitions to match the numbers used by mac80211 (also affects ath9k_htc). To ensure consistency wrt. pending frame count tracking, these counters are moved to the ath_txq struct, updated with the txq lock held, but only where the tx queue selected by the skb queue map actually matches the tx queue used by the driver for the frame.

The ath9k aggregation code was already checking the rate control probe flag to prevent starting an aggregate frame with a sampling rate. What was missing was closing an aggregate before adding a probing frame to it. Without that, rate control cannot have precise control over probing, which delays using faster rates when the channel conditions improve.
