576771c9fa wifi: ath12k: ACPI TAS support
Currently, ath12k does not support Time-Average-SAR (TAS). In order to enable
TAS read the tables from ACPI and send them to the firmware using
WMI_PDEV_SET_BIOS_INTERFACE_CMDID command. Besides, ath12k registers an ACPI
event callback so that ACPI can notify ath12k to get the updated SAR power
table and sends it to the firmware when the device state is changed.

ACPI is only enabled for WCN7850 using struct ath12k_hw_params::acpi_guid
field. Most likely QCN9274 will never support ACPI as the chip is not used in
laptops.

314876885b wifi: ath12k: vdev statemachine changes for single wiphy
With single wiphy, multiple radios are combined into a single wiphy.
Since any channel can be assigned to a vif being brought up,
the vdev cannot be created during add_interface(). Hence defer the
vdev creation till channel assignment.

If only one radio is part of the wiphy, then the existing logic
is maintained, i.e vdevs are created during add interface and
started during channel assignment. This ensures no functional changes
to single pdev devices which has only one radio in the SoC.

54ca3308a2 wifi: ath12k: enable 802.11 power save mode in station mode
To reduce power consumption enable 802.11 power save mode in
station mode. This allows both radio and CPU to sleep more.

Only enable the mode on WCN7850, other chips don't support it
for now.

To test that power save mode is running, run below command and
check there is no NULL Data frame seen by a sniffer:
        iw dev <inf> set power_save off

And run below command, then check there is a NULL Data frame
in sniffer:
        iw dev <inf> set power_save on

af9bc78d14 wifi: ath12k: Read board id to support split-PHY QCN9274
QCN9274 can support single-PHY or split-PHY architecture. Currently,
only the single-PHY architecture is supported in ath12k.

The split-PHY QCN9274 requires different AMSS firmware binary
"amss_dualmac.bin".

Hence, add support to read board id from OTP. Based on board id
decide whether single-mac / dual-mac firmware needs to be downloaded
to the target. Also, update HW param max_radios to support split-PHY
in QCN9274.

Also, add new Firmware IE for firmware_N.bin
"ATH11K_FW_IE_AMSS_DUALMAC_IMAGE" to support dualmac QCN9274.

3cf1a9f7a1 wifi: ath12k: remove hal_desc_sz from hw params
With word mask subscription support, the rx_desc structure will
change. The fields in this structure rx_desc will be reduced to only
the required fields. To make word mask subscription changes compatible
with the older firmware version (firmware that does not support word
mask subscription), two different structures of rx_desc will be
required for the same hardware.

The hardware param hal_desc_sz value cannot be constant for the same
hardware. It depends on the size of rx_desc structure which may
change based on firmware capability to support word mask subscription.
Hence, remove hal_desc_sz from hardware param and add hal_rx_ops
to get the size of rx_desc in run time.

664a1c96b2 wifi: ath12k: fix firmware assert during insmod in memory segment mode
In segment memory mode, firmware allocates memory segments of size
2 MB. This 2 MB memory is used by firmware for the number of peers.
This number of peer is sent from host to firmware during WMI init
command. For single-phy the number of peers sent is
TARGET_NUM_PEERS_SINGLE = 529 (512 + 17). While for split-phy number
of peers sent to firmware is TARGET_NUM_PEERS_DBS = 2 *(512 + 17) =
1058. With this 1058 number of peers firmware is unable to allocate
memory in 2 MB segment and firmware crash is observed.

Hence, fix this firmware crash by reducing the number of stations
TARGET_NUM_STATIONS for split-phy.

2870338109 wifi: ath12k: add support for peer meta data version
Add support to process WMI_TLV_SERVICE_PEER_METADATA_V1A_V1B_SUPPORT
service bit. If this service bit is set by firmware, then it expects
host to set rx_peer_meta_data_ver in wmi_resource_config's flags2
with value 3 for QCN9274 to indicate as V1B meta version. If this is
not set firmware crash is seen during peer addition.

Hence, if WMI_TLV_SERVICE_PEER_METADATA_V1A_V1B_SUPPORT service bit
is set by firmware, set correct peer metadata version to avoid
firmware crash.

5112074522 wifi: ath12k: add support to search regdb data in board-2.bin for WCN7850
Currently ath12k only downloads the same regdb.bin file for all WCN7850
chips, actually ath12k needs to distinguish all different WCN7850 chips.

This is to re-use the string type which includes bus, chip id, board id,
vendor, device, subsystem-vendor, subsystem-device and variant for
WCN7850 to distinguish different regdb in board-2.bin.

ath12k will first load board-2.bin and search in it for the regdb data
with the above parameters. If matched with one regdb data, download it
to firmware. And if not, download regdb.bin instead.

Add enum value ATH12K_BD_IE_REGDB and enum type ath12k_bd_ie_regdb_type
to distinguish regdb data and board data since they are in the same file
board-2.bin.

ae3ed72020 wifi: ath12k: configure RDDM size to MHI for device recovery
RDDM is Ram Dump Debug Module which is used to debug issues when the
firmware encounters an error. The rddm_size is needed by the firmware
while MHI goes to the RDDM state. Provide the size to MHI subsystem so
that the firmware restart works when the firmware crashes.

004ccbc0dd wifi: ath12k: add support for hardware rfkill for WCN7850
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.

9981a3ac58 wifi: ath12k: add qmi_cnss_feature_bitmap field to hardware parameters
Currently the CNSS (Connectivity Subsystem) QMI feature is assigned to
qmi_wlanfw_host_cap_req_msg_v01 request directly, this prevents chip-specific
CNSS features from being added easily.

Solve this by adding a new field qmi_cnss_feature_bitmap to hw_params so
chip-specific CNSS features can be assigned to this field and later assigned to
qmi_wlanfw_host_cap_req_msg_v01 request.

d889913205 wifi: ath12k: driver for Qualcomm Wi-Fi 7 devices
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.
