This change monitors the tx statistics to detect the drop in throughput. When the throughput drops, the ratio of the actual_ack_count and the expected_ ack_count also drops. At the same time, the aggregated ba_timeout (the number of ba timeout retries) also rises. If the actual_ack_count/expected_ack_count ratio is 0 and the number of ba timeout retries rises to 16, no tx packets (tcp, udp, or ping - icmp) can be delivered. The driver recovers from this situation by reseting the uCode firmware. If the actual_ack_count/expected_ ack_count ratio drops below 50% (but not 0) and the aggregated ba_timeout retries just exceed 5 (but not 16), then the driver can reset the radio to bring the throughput up.

While testing the station with the NIC 1000 family, it is found that the plcp error can easily exceed 50 value in 100mSecs. This creates unneccessary radio reset/tuning. This patch raises the PLCP error threshold of the NIC 1000 from 50 to 200 error count.

Provide the function to perform different type of uCode reset/reload operation. When uCode detect error and can not fix itself, this iwl_force_reset() function allow driver to perform the necessary reset/reload functions and help to bring uCode back to normal operation state. Currently only 2 type of force reset are available: - reset radio - reload firmware Signed-off-by: NWey-Yi Guy <wey-yi.w.guy@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NReinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com>

In iwlagn the support for spectrum measurement command has been disabled since v2.6.29 without any requests for it. In addition to this when this command is indeed enabled it has been found to trigger firmware SYSASSERT on at least 4965 and 5100 hardware (see http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1952 ). Since then this code has been bitrotting and cannot just be enabled without porting. Remove support for spectrum measurement command from iwlagn. It can be added back if there is a future need and the firmware problem it triggers has been fixed. Support for the spectrim measurement notification remains as it has been enabled all the time. In addition to this remove the 3945 spectrum measurement command Kconfig option and make this command always supported. The code added by this enabling is minimal and only run when user triggers a spectrum measurement request via sysfs.

We have seen the throughput dropped due to external noisy environment and the radio is out of tune. There are lot of plcp errors indicating this condition. Eventually the station can get de-authenticated by the Access Point. By resetting and tuning the radio, the plcp errors are reduced or eliminated and the throughput starts to rise. To prevent unexpected behavior such as drop in throughput or deauthentication, - The change provides the driver feature to monitor and tune the radio base on the statistics notification from the uCode. - It also allows the setting of the plcp error rate threshold via the plcp_delta under debugfs interface.

Add additional logic for internal scan routine to control how frequent this function should be performed. The intent of this function is to reset/re-tune the radio and bring the RF/PHY back to normal state, it does not make sense calling it too frequent, if reset the radio can not bring it back to normal state, it indicate there are other reason to cause the radio not operate correctly.

This patch allows A band to be scanned when driver is associated to AP. Scan mechanism is that mac80211/cfg80211 requests driver to scan G band first and then immediately to scan A band. Original code require driver to wait for 2 seconds after any scan before another scan will be performed. This caused driver to service G band scan request from mac80211/cfg80211 but deny the A band scan request.

Adding "radio reset" function to help reset and stabilize the radio. During normal operation, sometime for unknown reason, radio encounter problem and can not recover by itself; the best way to recover from it is to reset and re-tune the radio. Currently, there is no RF reset command available, but since radio will get reset when switching channel, use internal hw scan request to force radio reset and get back to normal operation state. The internal hw scan will only perform passive scan on the first available channel (not the channel being used) in associated state. The request should be ignored if already performing scan operation or STA is not in associated state. Also include an "internal_scan" debugfs file to help trigger the internal scan from user mode.

Add support to configure missed beacon threshold, by default, if receive "missed beacon" notification from uCode and has more than 5 consecutive beacon missed, then perform sensitivity calibration; with this change, allow user to adjust the missed beacon threshold from debugfs in case more sensitivity calibration required for better performance in noisy environment The default value (=5) should be good enough for the normal condition, but for very noisy environment, more sensitivity calibration could help improve the throughput, so by setting the missed beacon threshold to lower number, user might experience better performance result.

When txq read_ptr equals to write_ptr, iwl_queue_used should always return false. Because there is no used TFD in this case.

In order to help uCode debugging, adding the capability to provide continuous uCode event logging function. uCode events is located in round-robin event queue and filled by uCode, by enable continuous event logging, driver check the write pointer and log the newly added events in iwl_bg_ucode_trace() timer function. There is still possibility of missing events if event queue being wrapped before next event dump; but with this capability, we can have much better understanding of the uCode behavior during runtime; it can help to debug the uCode related issues. Methods to enable/disable the continuous event log: step 1: enable ucode trace timer "echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phyX/iwlagn/debug/ucode_tracing" step 2: start ftrace sudo ./trace-cmd record -e iwlwifi_ucode:* sleep 1d step 3: stop ftrace sudo ./trace-cmd report trace.dat step 4: disable ucode trace timer "echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phyX/iwlagn/debug/ucode_tracing" use "ucode_tracing" debugfs file to display number of event queue wrapped when driver attempt the continuous event logging. If event queue being wrapped more than once when driver has opportunity to log the event; it indicated there are events missing in the event log trace. This continuous event log function only available for 4965 and newer NICs.

The construct "le16_to_cpu((__force __le16)(r >> 16))" has always bothered me when looking through the iwlwifi code, it shouldn't be necessary to __force anything, and before this code, "r" was obtained with an ioread32, which swaps each of the two u16 values in it properly when swapping the entire u32 value. I've had arguments about this code with people before, but always conceded they were right because removing it only made things not work at all on big endian platforms. However, analysing a failure of the OTP reading code, I now finally figured out what is going on, and why my intuition about that code being wrong was right all along. It turns out that the 'priv->eeprom' u8 array really wants to have the data in it in little endian. So the force code above and all really converts *to* little endian, not from it. Cf., for instance, the function iwl_eeprom_query16() -- it reads two u8 values and combines them into a u16, in a little-endian way. And considering it more, it makes sense to have the eeprom array as on the device, after all not all values really are 16-bit values, the MAC address for instance is not. Now, what this really means is that all the annotations are completely wrong. The eeprom reading code should fill the priv->eeprom array as a __le16 array, with __le16 values. This also means that iwl_read_otp_word() should really have a __le16 pointer as the data argument, since it should be filling that in a format suitable for priv->eeprom. Propagating these changes throughout, iwl_find_otp_image() is found to be, now obviously visible, defective -- it uses the data returned by iwl_read_otp_word() directly as if it was CPU endianness. Fixing that, which is this hunk of the patch: - next_link_addr = link_value * sizeof(u16); + next_link_addr = le16_to_cpu(link_value) * sizeof(u16); is the only real change of this patch. Everything else is just fixing the sparse annotations. Also, the bug only shows up on big endian platforms with a 1000 series card. 5000 and previous series do not use OTP, and 6000 series has shadow RAM support which means we don't ever use the defective code on any cards but 1000.

In iwlwifi, priv->alloc_rxb_page is used to keep track of the Rx pages allocated by the driver. This cleans up the page free routines by introducing __iwl_free_pages/iwl_free_pages so that the accounting is more accurate and less error prone. This also fixes two instances where the counter was not updated. Signed-off-by: NZhu Yi <yi.zhu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NReinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

Using the new mac80211 functionality, this makes iwlwifi handle unicast PS buffering correctly. The device works like this: * when a station goes to sleep, the microcode notices this and marks the station as asleep * when the station is marked asleep, the microcode refuses to transmit to the station and rejects all frames queued to it with the failure status code TX_STATUS_FAIL_DEST_PS (a previous patch handled this correctly) * when we need to send frames to the station _although_ it is asleep, we need to tell the ucode how many, and this is asynchronous with sending so we cannot just send the frames, we need to wait for all other frames to be flushed, and then update the counter before sending out the poll response frames. This is handled partially in the driver and partially in mac80211. In order to do all this correctly, we need to * keep track of how many frames are pending for each associated client station (avoid doing it for other stations to avoid the atomic ops) * tell mac80211 that we driver-block the PS status while there are still frames pending on the queues, and once they are all rejected (due to the dest sta being in PS) unblock mac80211 Signed-off-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: NReinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

In both 6x00 and 6x50 series, the enhanced/extended tx power table in EEPROM is used to set the max. tx power limit. This new tx power table is in 1/2 dBm format, which creates an issue of possibility of 1/2 dBm loss when driver set the tx power limit; because of driver keep track and report the tx power in dBm format. In order to prevent the 1/2 dBm loss, keep track of the true max tx power in 1/2 dBm format in driver; do the comparison and adjust the tx power if needed when send tx power command to uCode.

Different channel has different configuration, need to pass correct configuration to uCode when send "channel switch" command to uCode. Invalid configuration will cause sysassert in uCode and produce un-expected result.

When I added that code setting the swq_id, I evidently did not understand the distinction between FIFO and TX queue yet and added code to compare a queue ID and a FIFO number, which is bogus. However, the code there need not be this specific, it can just set all queues to the identity mapping which will be overwritten by the aggregation queue code. As a bit of defensive coding, don't assign an swq_id to the command queue so that if we ever use it for frames we notice quickly.

Spatial Multiplexing Power Save was disabled to achieve better throughput while in power save mode by activating all the rx chains all the time. By doing so, the device power consumption is high. Enable static/dynamic spatial multiplexing power save if device support it, which can lower the power consumption without impact throughput.

Currently mac80211 initializes the rate scaling before notifying the driver of the station's existence. The driver dealt with this by not relying on mac80211's station notifications and instead mixing this functionality with the rate scaling code and other places. To clean this up the driver needs to do rate scaling initialization after being notified of the station, this can be done if the rate scaling information forms part of the station information passed from mac80211 to driver.

This switches the iwlwifi driver to use paged skb from linear skb for Rx buffer. So that it relieves some Rx buffer allocation pressure for the memory subsystem. Currently iwlwifi (4K for 3945) requests 8K bytes for Rx buffer. Due to the trailing skb_shared_info in the skb->data, alloc_skb() will do the next order allocation, which is 16K bytes. This is suboptimal and more likely to fail when the system is under memory usage pressure. Switching to paged Rx skb lets us allocate the RXB directly by alloc_pages(), so that only order 1 allocation is required. It also adjusts the area spin_lock (with IRQ disabled) protected in the tasklet because tasklet guarentees to run only on one CPU and the new unprotected code can be preempted by the IRQ handler. This saves us from spawning another workqueue to make skb_linearize/__pskb_pull_tail happy (which cannot be called in hard irq context). Finally, mac80211 doesn't support paged Rx yet. So we linearize the skb for all the management frames and software decryption or defragmentation required data frames before handed to mac80211. For all the other frames, we __pskb_pull_tail 64 bytes in the linear area of the skb for mac80211 to handle them properly. Signed-off-by: NZhu Yi <yi.zhu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.
