Split tx_queue_count to count per-AC skb's queued, instead of relying on
the skb-queue len. The skb queues used were only valid in STA-mode, as
AP-mode uses per-link queues.
This fixes a major regression in AP-mode, caused by the patch
"wl12xx: implement Tx watermarks per AC". With that patch applied, we
effectively had no regulation of Tx queues in AP-mode. Therefore a
sustained high rate of Tx could cause exhaustion of the skb memory pool.

The current TX watermark settings cause the driver to stop queues too
frequently. Among other things, this can have a negative impact on WMM
prioritization, since mac80211 sorts pending packets by their ACs.
Fix this by increasing the high watermark to 256 packets. Increase the

When selecting packets for transmission, prefer the ACs that are least

A recently added feature to the firmware enables the driver to retrieve
firmware logs via the host bus (SDIO or SPI).
There are two modes of operation:
1. On-demand: The FW collects its log in an internal ring buffer. This
buffer can later be read, for example, upon recovery.
2. Continuous: The FW pushes the FW logs as special packets in the RX
path.
Reading the internal ring buffer does not involve the FW. Thus, as long
as the HW is not in ELP, it should be possible to read the logs, even if
the FW crashes.
A sysfs binary file named "fwlog" was added to support this feature,
letting a monitor process read the FW messages. The log is transferred
from the FW only when available, so the reading process might block.

of wl1271_ps_elp_sleep() after completing the tx work.

In AP mode we register for the MAX_TX_RETRY and INACTIVE_STA events.
Both are reported to the upper layers as a TX failure in the offending
stations.
In STA mode we register only for the MAX_TX_RETRY event. A TX failure is
interpreted as a loss of connection.
Support for IEEE80211_HW_REPORTS_TX_ACK_STATUS has been removed to avoid
the inherent race condition of a mac80211 TX failure counter in addition
to the FW counter.
This patch depends on "mac80211: allow low level driver to report packet

Some platforms are incapable of triggering on level interrupts. Add a
platform quirks member in the platform data structure, as well as an
edge interrupt quirk which can be set on such platforms.
When the interrupt is requested with IRQF_TRIGGER_RISING, IRQF_ONESHOT
cannot be used, as we might miss interrupts that occur after the FW
status is cleared and before the threaded interrupt handler exits.
Moreover, when IRQF_ONESHOT is not set, iterating more than once in the
threaded interrupt handler introduces a few race conditions between this
handler and the hardirq handler. Currently this is worked around by
limiting the loop to one iteration only. This workaround has an impact
on performance. To remove to this restriction, the race conditions will
need to be addressed.

The total number of TX memory blocks may change when the dynamic memory

By tracking the number of allocated blocks, calculation of the number of

number of TX memory blocks minus the allocated ones.

The current implementation allocates a skb each time one is requested by
the firmware. Since dummy packets are handled differently than regular
packets, the skb needs to be marked. Currently, this is done by
setting the pkt_type member to 5. This might not be safe, as we cannot
be sure that there won't be any other packets with this pkt_type value.
Since the packet does not change from one request to another, we can
simply allocate a dummy packet template and always send it. All changes
to the skb done during packet preparation must be reverted, so the same
skb can be reused.
The dummy packets are not transmitted, therefore there's no need to set
the BSSID or our own MAC address.
In addition, the header portion of the packet was zeroed by mistake, so
fix that as well.

The wl12xx device normally drops all frames coming from BSSID
it is not joined with.
This behavior is configured today by the wl12xx driver in response
to a handful of ieee80211_bss_change and ieee80211_conf_changed
notification flags, such as BSS_CHANGED_ASSOC, BSS_CHANGED_BSSID,
IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_IDLE, etc..
This breaks when we roam to a new BSSID, where authentication frames
are sent before any BSS_CHANGED/CONF_CHANGED flags are received.
When this happens the hardware silently drops the authentication
responses, and the roaming fails.
Ideally this aggressive filtering behavior of the device should be disabled
upon a notification from mac80211. Such notification will take place
after multi-channel support will be added: mac80211 will likely send a
remain-on-channel notification to drivers when entering sensitive
states (like authentication), otherwise the firmware might jump to
different channels (to serve a different role).
Until those notifications materialize, disable the hw BSSID filter
when authentication requests are sent, so roaming would work.

ELP (Extremely/Enhanced Low Power, or something like that ;)) refers to
the powerstate of the 12xx chip, in which very low power is consumed,
and no commands (from the host) can be issued until the chip is woken up.
Wakeup/sleep commands must be protected by a wl->mutex, so it's generally
a good idea to call wakeup/sleep along with the mutex lock/unlock (where
needed). However, in some places the wl12xx driver calls wakeup/sleep in
some "inner" functions. This result in some "nested" wakeup/sleep calls
which might end up letting the chip go to sleep prematurely (e.g. during
event handling).
Fix it by rearranging the elp calls to come along with mutex_lock/unlock.

On wl128x based devices, when TX packets are aggregated, each packet

The block size is set to 256 bytes, which is less than the maximum

aggregated, the aggregation buffer size would be 512, and will be sent
using byte mode transfers. This can have undesired side effects.

The interrupt of the wl12xx is a level interrupt in nature, since the
interrupt line is not auto-reset. However, since resetting the interrupt
requires bus transactions, this cannot be done from an interrupt
context. Thus, requesting a level interrupt would require to disable the
irq and re-enable it after the HW is acknowledged. Since we now request
a threaded irq, this can also be done by specifying the IRQF_ONESHOT
flag.
Triggering on an edge can be problematic in some platforms, if the
sampling frequency is not sufficient for detecting very frequent
interrupts. In case an interrupt is missed, the driver will hang as the
interrupt line will stay high until it is acknowledged by the driver,
which will never happen.

To achieve maximal throughput, it is very important to react to
interrupts as soon as possible. Currently the interrupt handler wakes up
a worker for handling interrupts in process context. A cleaner and more
efficient design would be to request a threaded interrupt handler. This
handler's priority is very high, and can do blocking operations such as
SDIO/SPI transactions.
Some work can be deferred, mostly calls to mac80211 APIs
(ieee80211_rx_ni and ieee80211_tx_status). By deferring such work to a
different worker, we can keep the irq handler thread more I/O
responsive. In addition, on multi-core systems the two threads can be
scheduled on different cores, which will improve overall performance.
The use of WL1271_FLAG_IRQ_PENDING & WL1271_FLAG_IRQ_RUNNING was
changed. For simplicity, always query the FW for more pending
interrupts. Since there are relatively long bursts of interrupts, the
extra FW status read overhead is negligible. In addition, this enables
registering the IRQ handler with the ONESHOT option.

addition to the few CPU cycles it takes to claim and release the bus, it
may also cause undesired side effects such as the MMC host stopping its

Since only the wl12xx_sdio driver drives this SDIO card, it is safe to

runs out of memory reserved for RX frames, it'll have no other choice
but to drop packets received from the AP. Thus, it is important to
handle RX data interrupts as soon as possible, before handling anything
else.
In addition, since there are enough TX descriptors to go around, it is
better to first send TX frames, and only then handle TX completions.
