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.

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.

The iwlwifi drivers have LED blinking requirements that mac80211 cannot fulfill due to the use of just a single LED instead of different ones for TX, RX, radio etc. Instead, the single LED blinks according to transfers and is solid on the rest of the time. As such, having LED class devices registered that mac80211 triggers are connected to is pointless as we don't use the triggers anyway. Remove all the useless code and add hooks into the driver itself. At the same time, make the LED code abstracted so the core code that determines blink rate etc. can be shared between 3945 and agn in iwlcore. At the same time, the fact that we removed the use of the mac80211 LED triggers means we can also remove the IWLWIFI_LEDS Kconfig symbol since the LED support is now self-contained.

When instructing the microcode to use just a single chain when we have power saving enabled, we should also tell the AP that we are doing SM powersave. However, using a single chain doesn't actually have any power saving advantage while idle -- measurements show that the power consumption is no different when using one vs. two or three chains. Therefore, always instruct the microcode to use all chains.

The chain settings we currently use in iwlwifi are rather confusing -- and we also go by the wrong settings entirely under certain circumstances. To clean it up, create a new variable in the current HT config -- single_chain_sufficient -- that tells us whether we need more than one chain. Calculate that based on the AP and operating mode (no IBSS HT implemented -- so no need for multiple chains, for station mode we use the AP's capabilities). Additionally, since APs always send disabled SM PS mode, keeping track of their sm_ps mode isn't very useful -- doubly not so for our _own_ RX config since that should depend on our, not the AP's, SM PS mode. Finally, document that our configuration of the number of RX chains used is currently wrong when in powersave (by adding a comment). All together this removes the two remaining items in struct iwl_ht_config that were done wrong there. For the future, the number of RX chains and some SM PS handshaking needs to be added to mac80211, which then needs to tell us, and the new variable current_ht_config.single_chain_sufficient should also be calculated by mac80211.

When hardware or uCode problem occurs driver captures significant information from device to enable debugging. The format of this information is different between 3945 and 4965 and later devices, yet currently the 3945 uses the 4965 and later format. Fix this by adding a new library call that is initialized to the correct formatting routine based on device. This moves the iwlagn event and error log handling back to iwl-agn.c to make it part of iwlagn module. Also remove the 3945 sysfs file that triggers dump of event log - there is already a debugfs file that can do it for all drivers.

There's a bug in 4965 powersave that appears to be related to the way it keeps track of its data during sleep, but we haven't found it yet. Due to that, using powersave may spontaneously cause the device to SYSASSERT when transitioning from sleep to wake. Therefore, disable powersave for 4965, until (if ever, unfortunately) we can identify and fix the problem.

For HT packets, mac80211 expects the rate_idx to be an MCS number, which is the lower byte of rate_n_flags. However, iwl_hwrate_to_plcp_idx takes the MCS number and reduces it down to the range 0-8 (6 to 60 Mbps), removing the bits that signify multiply streams, HT40 Duplicate mode, or unequal modulation. This version is used for various internal purposes through the driver. Add the function iwl_hwrate_get_mac80211_idx, an alternate version which takes the rate and the band and returns the mac80211 index (MCS, for HT packets, and PLCP rate, for legacy packets).

Over time, a whole bunch of drivers have come up with their own scheme to delay the configure_filter operation to a workqueue. To be able to simplify things, allow configure_filter to sleep, and add a new prepare_multicast callback that drivers that need the multicast address list implement. This new callback must be atomic, but most drivers either don't care or just calculate a hash which can be done atomically and then uploaded to the hardware non-atomically. A cursory look suggests that at76c50x-usb, ar9170, mwl8k (which is actually very broken now), rt2x00, wl1251, wl1271 and zd1211 should make use of this new capability.

The field called 'len' in struct iwl_rx_packet is in fact not just a length field but also includes some flags from the flow handler. In several places throughout the driver, this causes incorrect values to be interpreted as lengths when the field is improperly masked. In most situations the improper use is for debugging output, and simply results in an erroneous message, such as: [551933.070224] ieee80211 phy0: I iwl_rx_statistics Statistics notification received (480 vs -1367342620). which should read '(480 vs 484)'. In at least one case this could case bad things to happen: void iwl_rx_pm_debug_statistics_notif(struct iwl_priv *priv, struct iwl_rx_mem_buffer *rxb) { struct iwl_rx_packet *pkt = (struct iwl_rx_packet *)rxb->skb->data; IWL_DEBUG_RADIO(priv, "Dumping %d bytes of unhandled " "notification for %s:\n", le32_to_cpu(pkt->len), get_cmd_string(pkt->hdr.cmd)); iwl_print_hex_dump(priv, IWL_DL_RADIO, pkt->u.raw, le32_to_cpu(pkt->len) ); } EXPORT_SYMBOL(iwl_rx_pm_debug_statistics_notif); Given the rampant misuse of this field without proper masking throughout the driver (every use but one), this patch renames the field from 'len' to 'len_n_flags' to reduce confusion. It also adds the proper masking when this field is used as a length value.
