Currently, the logic to return an ath12k_sta pointer, given a
ieee80211_sta pointer, uses typecasting throughout the driver. In
general, conversion functions are preferable to typecasting since
using a conversion function allows the compiler to validate the types
of both the input and output parameters.
ath12k already defines a conversion function ath12k_vif_to_arvif() for
a similar conversion. So introduce ath12k_sta_to_arsta() for this use
case, and convert all of the existing typecasting to use this
function.

Currently struct ath12k_base defines the member bd_api. However, this
member is only accessed within ath12k_core_fetch_bdf(). Since the
scope is local just to that one function, remove it from ath12k_base
and instead just use a local stack variable.
No functional changes, compile tested only.

When hardware rfkill is enabled in the firmware, it will report the
capability using WMI_SYS_CAP_INFO_RFKILL bit in the WMI_SERVICE_READY event
to the host. Currently ath12k does not process this service capability. In
order to support this, update ath12k to check if the capability is enabled,
if so, send the GPIO information to firmware. When the firmware detects
hardware rfkill is enabled by the user, it will report it using
WMI_RFKILL_STATE_CHANGE_EVENTID. When ath12k receive the event, it will set
the value of rfkill_radio_on based on whether radio_state is equal to
WMI_RFKILL_RADIO_STATE_ON, then send WMI_PDEV_PARAM_RFKILL_ENABLE to
firmware.

Enable the feature flag to indicate the driver support for
preamble puncturing. Firmware will support this feature
by default from IEEE 802.11be onwards.
Configure the bitmap as part of VDEV start/restart and
peer association commands.

Add WMI support to process the EHT capabilities passed by
the firmware. Add required EHT specific definitions in
structures ath12k_band_cap and ath12k_wmi_svc_rdy_ext_parse.
For single_pdev chip such as WCN7850, only one pdev is created
and only one hardware is registered to mac80211. This one pdev
manages both 2.4 GHz radio and 5 GHz/6 GHz radio.

Transmission of management packets are done in a work queue. Sometimes
the workqueue does not finish Tx immediately, then it lead after the next
step of vdev delete finished, it start to send the management packet to
firmware and lead firmware crash.
ieee80211_set_disassoc() have logic of ieee80211_flush_queues() after
it send_deauth_disassoc() to ath12k, its purpose is make sure the
deauth was actually sent, so it need to change ath12k to match the
purpose of mac80211.
To address these issues wait for Tx management as well as Tx data packets.

Currently, during change in bandwidth for peer sta, host sends the
new value of channel width via WMI_PEER_CHWIDTH set peer param command
alone. This can lead to firmware assert in some scenario since before
the command, firmware was having value of channel width and its
corresponding phymode. After the command, host tries to set the new
value of channel width alone which can become incompatible when compared
with its phymode.
For example:
Bandwidth Upgrade
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After association, sta is in 40 MHz bandwidth in 11ax-HE40 phymode.
After bandwidth upgrades, sta moves to 80 MHz but as per phymode,
max bandwidth is still 40 MHz. Hence, firmware assert is seen.
So in this case first phymode should be moved to 11ax-HE80
followed by bandwidth change.
Bandwidth Downgrade
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Similarly, reverse of above is also possible when sta is in 40 MHz
bandwidth in 11ax-HE40 phymode. Bandwidth should be changed to 20 MHz
and if host sends phymode first then, phymode will become 11ax-HE20
and will be incompatible with bandwidth value and hence firmware
assert will be seen. Hence, in this case first channel width
should be set followed by phymode.
Fix this issue by sending WMI set peer param command for phymode as
well as bandwidth based on the type of bandwidth change i.e upgrade
or downgrade.

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.
