In transmit path, it is likely that the iova is not aligned to PCIe TLP
max payload size, which is 128 for WCN7850. Normally in such cases hardware
is expected to split the packet into several parts in a manner such that
they, other than the first one, have aligned iova. However due to hardware
limitations, WCN7850 does not behave like that properly with some specific
unaligned iova in transmit path. This easily results in target hang in a
KPI transmit test: packet send/receive failure, WMI command send timeout
etc. Also fatal error seen in PCIe level:
...
Capabilities: ...
...
DevSta: ... FatalErr+ ...
...
...
Work around this by manually moving/reallocating payload buffer such that
we can map it to a 128 bytes aligned iova. The moving requires sufficient
head room or tail room in skb: for the former we can do ourselves a favor
by asking some extra bytes when registering with mac80211, while for the
latter we can do nothing.
Moving/reallocating buffer consumes additional CPU cycles, but the good news
is that an aligned iova increases PCIe efficiency. In my tests on some X86
platforms the KPI results are almost consistent.
Since this is seen only with WCN7850, add a new hardware parameter to
differentiate from others.

VLAN group traffic utilizes ext MSDU and HTT Metadata to set

Currently, the calculation of ack signal strength is incorrect.
This is because before calculating the ack signal strength, ath12k need
to determine whether the hardware and firmware support db2dbm. If the
hardware and firmware support db2dbm, do not need to add noise floor,
otherwise, need to add noise floor.
Besides, the value of ack_rssi passed by firmware to ath12k should be a
signed number, so change its type to s8.
This patch affects QCN9274 and WCN7850 because they have the same issue.

When a station idles for a long time, hostapd will try to send
a QoS Null frame to the station as "poll". NL80211_CMD_PROBE_CLIENT
is used for this purpose.
And the skb will be added to ack_status_frame - waiting for a
completion via ieee80211_report_ack_skb().
But when the peer was already removed before the tx_complete arrives,
the peer will be missing. And when using dev_kfree_skb_any (instead
of going through mac80211), the entry will stay inside
ack_status_frames thus not clean up related information in its
internal data structures. This IDR will therefore run full after
8K request were generated for such clients.
At this point, the access point will then just stall and not allow
any new clients because idr_alloc() for ack_status_frame will fail.
ieee80211_free_txskb() on the other hand will (when required) call
ieee80211_report_ack_skb() and make sure that (when required) remove
the entry from the ack_status_frame and clean up related
information in its internal data structures.

Most of the RX descriptors fields are currently not used in the
ath12k driver. Hence add support to selectively subscribe to the
required quad words (64 bits) within msdu_end and mpdu_start of
rx_desc.
Add compact rx_desc structures and configure the bit mask for Rx TLVs
(msdu_end, mpdu_start, mpdu_end) via registers. With these registers
SW can configure to DMA the partial TLV struct to Rx buffer.
Each TLV type has its own register to configure the mask value.
The mask value configured in register will indicate if a particular
QWORD has to be written to rx buffer or not i.e., if Nth bit is enabled
in the mask Nth QWORD will be written and it will not be written if the
bit is disabled in mask. While 0th bit indicates whether TLV tag will be
written or not.
Advantages of Qword subscription of TLVs
- Avoid multiple cache-line misses as the all the required fields
of the TLV are within 128 bytes.
- Memory optimization as TLVs + DATA + SHINFO can fit in 2k buffer
even for 64 bit kernel.

Declaration is '.. c:function:: void ieee80211_tx_status (struct ieee80211_hw *hw, struct sk_buff *skb)'.
This is because there's a function named ieee80211_tx_status() and a struct named

So I guess we have no other solution than to a workaround this in the code,
for example to rename the function to ieee80211_tx_status_skb() to avoid the
name conflict. I got the idea for the name from ieee80211_tx_status_noskb() in
which the skb is not provided as an argument, instead with

ath12k is a new mac80211 driver for Qualcomm Wi-Fi 7 devices, first
supporting QCN9274 and WCN7850 PCI devices. QCN9274 supports both AP
and station; WCN7850 supports only station mode. Monitor mode is not
(yet) supported. Only PCI bus devices are supported.
ath12k is forked from an earlier version of ath11k. It was simpler to
have a "clean start" for the new generation and not try to share the
code with ath11k. This makes maintenance easier and avoids major
changes in ath11k, which would have significantly increased the risk
of regressions in existing setups.
ath12k uses le32 and cpu_to_le32() macros to handle endian
conversions, instead of using the firmware byte swap feature utilized
by ath11k. There is only one kernel module, named ath12k.ko.
Currently ath12k only supports HE mode (IEEE 802.11ax) or older, but
work is ongoing to add EHT mode (IEEE 802.11be) support.
The size of the driver is ~41 kLOC and 45 files. To make the review
easier, this initial version of ath12k does not support Device Tree,
debugfs or any other extra features. Those will be added later, after
ath12k is accepted to upstream.
The driver is build tested by Intel's kernel test robot with both GCC
and Clang. Sparse reports no warnings. The driver is mostly free of
checkpatch warnings, albeit few of the warnings are omitted on
purpose, list of them here:
https://github.com/qca/qca-swiss-army-knife/blob/master/tools/scripts/ath12k/ath12k-check#L52
The driver has had multiple authors who are listed in alphabetical
order below.
