The current "huge" command handling is a bit confusing, and very limited since only one command may be huge at a time. Additionally, we often copy data around quite pointlessly since we could instead map the existing scan buffer for example and use it directly. This patch makes that possible. The first change is that multiple buffers may be given to each command (this change was prepared earlier so callsites don't need to change). Each of those can be mapped attached to a TB in the TFD, and the command header can use a TB (the first one) in the TFD as well. Doing this allows getting rid of huge commands in favour of mapping existing buffers. The beacon transmission is also optimised to not copy the SKB at all but use multiple TBs.

This patch adds the feature to support the test mode operation through the generic netlink channel NL80211_CMD_TESTMODE between intel wireless device iwlwifi and the user space application svtool. The main purpose is to create a transportation layer between the iwlwifi device and the user space application so that the interaction between the user space application svtool and the iwlwifi device in the kernel space is in a way of generic netlink messaging. The detail specific functions are: 1. The function iwl_testmode_cmd() is added to digest the svtool test command from the user space application. The svtool test commands are categorized to three types : commands to be processed by the device ucode, commands to access the registers, and commands to be processed at the driver level(such as reload the ucode). iwl_testmode_cmd() dispatches the commands the corresponding handlers and reply to user space regarding the command execution status. Extra data is returned to the user space application if there's any. 2. The function iwl_testmode_ucode_rx_pkt() is added to multicast all the spontaneous messages from the iwlwifi device to the user space. Regardless the message types, whenever there is a valid spontaneous message received by the iwlwifi ISR, iwl_testmode_ucode_rx_pkt() is invoked to multicast the message content to user space. The message content is not attacked and the message parsing is left to the user space application. Implementation guidelines: 1. The generic netlink messaging for iwliwif test mode is through NL80211_CMD_TESTMODE channel, therefore, the codes need to follow the regulations set by cfg80211.ko to get the actual device instance ieee80211_ops via cfg80211.ko, so that the iwlwifi device is indicated with ieee80211_ops and can be actually accessed. Therefore, a callback iwl_testmode_cmd() is added to the structure iwlagn_hw_ops in iwl-agn.c. 2. It intends to utilize those low level device access APIs from iwlwifi device driver (ie. iwlagn.ko) rather than creating it's own set of device access functions. For example, iwl_send_cmd(), iwl_read32(), iwl_write8(), and iwl_write32() are reused. 3. The main functions are maintained in new files instead of spreading all over the existing iwlwifi driver files. The new files added are : drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-sv-open.c - to handle the user space test mode application command and reply the respective command status to the user space application. - to multicast the spontaneous messages from device to user space. drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-testmode.h - the commonly referenced definitions for the TLVs used in the generic netlink messages Signed-off-by: NCindy H.

Since commit f844a709 Author: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@redhat.com> Date: Fri Jan 28 16:47:44 2011 +0100 iwlwifi: do not set tx power when channel is changing we set device tx power during initialization to priv->tx_power_next, which itself is initialized to minimum power. That changed default behaviour of driver. Previously we initialized device to transmit at maximum available power by default. Patch change again to previous behaviour and cleanup tx power initialization. Fortunately this is not critical fix, as mac80211 layer setup tx power lately to 14dB, hence device does not operate at minimal transmit power all the time.

The current firmware loading mechanism in iwlwifi is very hard to follow, and thus hard to maintain. To make it easier, make the firmware loading synchronous. For now, as a side effect, this removes a number of retry possibilities we had. It isn't typical for this to fail, but if it does happen we restart from scratch which this also makes easier to do should it be necessary.

The current code to read the error table header just hardcodes all the offsets, which is a bit hard to understand. We can read in the entire header (as much as we need) into a structure, and then take the data from there, which makes it easier to understand. To read a bigger blob we also don't need to grab NIC access for each word read, making the code more efficient.

There's no need to keep both normal and BT statistics versions around all the time in memory when we only use a subset of both. So keep only the subsets that we need in memory, depending on the debug config). Also, in doing so, we can remove all the calls to iwl_bt_statistics() in the driver as we'll just access the copied statistics now. Finally, also remove this call from the one place where it might still be needed and automatically detect what kind of statistics the device is sending based on their size. This way, we don't need to keep track of which devices do what any more, which is good since this is subject to change based on the ucode version (as some ucode even for non-BT devices will in fact use BT statistics). Warn upon encountering a statistics command from the ucode that isn't known, so we will find such issues earlier in the future.

I haven't done any CPU utilisation measurements, but given that the hotpaths don't use much IO it is not likely to have a negative impact; in fact, the size reduction will reduce cache pressure which possibly improves performance.
