802.11ac allows A-MSDU that can be up to 12KB long. Since an entire A-MSDU needs to fit into one single Receive Buffer (RB), add support for big RBs. Since this adds lots of pressure to the memory manager and significantly increase the true_size of the RX buffers, don't enable this by default.

As a preperation for multiple RX queues change the RBD allocation model. The new model includes a background allocator. The allocator is called by the interrupt handler when there are two released buffers by the queue, and the allocator starts allocating eight pages per request. When the queue has released 8 pages it tries claiming the request. If the pages are not ready - it keeps claiming. This new model should make sure that RBDs are always available across the multiple queues. The RBDs are transferred between the allocator and the queue. The queue moves the free RBDs upon freeing them to the allocator. The allocator moves them back to the queue's possession when the request is claimed. The allocator has an initial pool to make sure there are always RBDs available for the request completion. Release of the buffers at exit is done per pools - the allocator frees its own initial pool and the queue frees its own pool. Existing code refactor - -Queue's initial pool is the size of the queue only as the allocation of the new buffers no longer uses this pool. -Removal of replenish background work, and replenish calls in the interrupt handler and restock(). -The replenish() and the rxq used_list are used only during initialization. -Moved page allocation to a new function for code reuse. New code - Allocator code - new structure and functions. Interrupt handler uses the allocator functions for replenishing buffers. Reuse of the restock() method.

Allow frag SKBs in PCIe and advertise the maximum number of frags to the opmode. As a fallback. linearize the SKB if it exceeds the maximum number of fragments. This allows using the hardware better (filling more TBs) and should improve performance when used by the opmode. Also adjust tracing to be able to deal with this.

As the firmware is slowly running out of command IDs and grouping of commands is desirable anyway, the firmware is extending the command header from 4 bytes to 8 bytes to introduce a group (in place of the former flags field, since that's always 0 on commands and thus can be easily used to distinguish between the two. In order to support this most easily in the driver widen the command command ID used in the command sending functions and encode the new values (group and version) in the ID. That way existing code doesn't have to be changed (since the higher bits are 0 automatically) and newer code can easily use the new ID generation function to create a value to use in place of just the command ID.

The cmd_in_flight tracking was introduced to workaround faulty power management hardware, by having the driver keep the NIC awake as long as there are commands in flight. However, some of the code handling this workaround was unconditionally executed, which resulted with an inconsistent state where the driver assumed that the NIC was awake although it wasn't. Fix this by renaming 'cmd_in_flight' to 'cmd_hold_nic_awake' and handling the NIC requested awake state only for hardwares for which the workaround is needed.

This allows the op_mode to let the transport know that a queue is currently frozen and that its timer should be stopped. When the queue is unfrozen, its timer should be set to expire after the remainder of the timeout has elapsed. This can be used when stations go to sleep. When a station goes to sleep, the op_mode can freeze the timer so that the queue will never be considered as stuck. When the station wakes up, the queue will be unfrozen. This is meant to avoid false positives that would happen if a buggy station goes to sleep for a very long time. In case we have a dedicated queue for this station (BA agreement) and it goes to sleep for a very long time, the queue would rightfully be stopped during all that time. In this case, the stuck queue timer could fire and that would be a false positive. Signed-off-by: NEmmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com>

Different queue can have different behavior. While it can be unacceptable for a certain queue to be stuck for 2 seconds (e.g. the command queue), it can happen that another queue will stay stuck for even longer (a queue servicing a power saving client in GO). The op_mode can even make the timeout be a function of the listen interval. Reviewed-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NEmmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com>

When shadow registers are enabled, then need_update never needs to be set, so move the need_update handling into the function that really needs to do it (iwl_pcie_rxq_inc_wr_ptr) and also separate the check when it woke up. While at it, convert it to bool. This also clarifies the locking and means the irq_lock needs to no longer be held for any such updates. The irq_lock also doesn't have to be held for restocking since everything else locks the RX queue properly, so remove that and finally disentangle the two locks entirely so there aren't any dependencies between the two left.

Use the new NAPI infrastructure added to mac80211 to get GRO. We don't really implement NAPI since we don't have a real poll function and we never schedule a NAPI poll. Instead of this, we collect all the packets we got from a single interrupt and then call napi_gro_flush(). This allows us to benefit from GRO. In half duplex medium like WiFi, its main advantage is that it reduces the number of TCP Acks, hence improving the TCP Rx performance. Since we call the Rx path with a spinlock held, remove the might_sleep mention from the op_mode's API.

Recently in commit 8a964f44 ("iwlwifi: always copy first 16 bytes of commands") we fixed the problem that the hardware writes back to the command and that could overwrite parts of the data that was still needed and would thus be corrupted. Investigating this problem more closely we found that this write-back isn't really ordered very well with respect to other DMA traffic. Therefore, it sometimes happened that the write-back occurred after unmapping the command again which is clearly an issue and could corrupt the next allocation that goes to that spot, or (better) cause IOMMU faults. To fix this, allocate coherent memory for the first 16 bytes of each command, containing the write-back part, and use it for all queues. All the dynamic DMA mappings only need to be TO_DEVICE then. This ensures that even when the write-back happens "too late" it can't hit memory that has been freed or a mapping that doesn't exist any more. Since now the actual command is no longer modified, we can also remove CMD_WANT_HCMD and get rid of the DMA sync that was necessary to update the scratch pointer.

The FH hardware will always write back to the scratch field in commands, even host commands not just TX commands, which can overwrite parts of the command. This is problematic if the command is re-used (with IWL_HCMD_DFL_NOCOPY) and can cause calibration issues. Address this problem by always putting at least the first 16 bytes into the buffer we also use for the command header and therefore make the DMA engine write back into this. For commands that are smaller than 16 bytes also always map enough memory for the DMA engine to write back to.

With new transports coming up, move to threaded interrupt handling now. This has the advantage that we can use the same locking scheme with all different transports we may need to implement. Note that the TX path obviously still runs in a tasklet, so some spin_lock() calls need to change to spin_lock_bh() calls to properly lock out the TX path. In my test on a Calpella platform this has no impact on throughput or latency. Also add lockdep annotations to avoid lockups due to catch sending synchronous commands or using locks that connect with them from the irq thread.
