WCN3990 transmits management frames via WMI
with reference. Currently, with the management
tx completion not being handled, these frames are
not getting freed even after the transmission status
is returned by the firmware.
The transmitted management frames should be freed
when the firmware sends the over-the-air tx status of
the corresponding management frames.
Handle the wmi mgmt tx completion event and free
the corresponding management frame.

In the 10.4-3.6 firmware branch there's a new DFS Host confirmation
feature which is advertised using WMI_SERVICE_HOST_DFS_CHECK_SUPPORT flag.
This new features enables the ath10k host to send information to the
firmware on the specifications of detected radar type. This allows the
firmware to validate if the host's radar pattern detector unit is
operational and check if the radar information shared by host matches
the radar pulses sent as phy error events from firmware. If the check
fails the firmware won't allow use of DFS channels on AP mode when using
FCC regulatory region.
Hence this patch is mandatory when using a firmware from 10.4-3.6 branch.
Else, DFS channels on FCC regions cannot be used.

Added per tid sta counters for the following
- Total number MSDUs received from firmware
- Number of MSDUs received with errors like decryption, crc, mic ,etc.
- Number of MSDUs dropped in the driver
- A-MPDU/A-MSDU subframe stats
- Number of MSDUS passed to mac80211
All stats other than A-MPDU stats are only for received data frames.
A-MPDU stats might have stats for management frames when monitor
interface is active where management frames are notified both in wmi
and HTT interfaces.
These per tid stats can be enabled with tid bitmask through a debugfs
like below
echo <tid_bitmask> > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phyX/ath10k/sta_tid_stats_mask
tid 16 (tid_bitmask 0x10000) is used for non-qos data/management frames
The stats are read from
/sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phyX/netdev\:wlanX/stations/<sta_mac>/dump_tid_stats
Sample output:

Add memory dump to the firmware crash data file which is provided to user space
via devcoredump interface. This makes it easier for firmware engineers to debug
firmware crashes.
Due to increased memory consumption the memory dump is disabled by default. To
enable it make sure that bit 3 is set in coredump_mask module parameter:
modprobe ath10k_core coredump_mask=0xffffffff
When RAMDUMP is enabled a buffer for the dump is allocated with vmalloc during
device probe. The actual memory layout is different in hardware versions and
the layouts are defined in coredump.c. The memory is split to regions and, to
get even finegrained control of what to copy, the region can split to smaller
sections as not all registers are readable (which could cause the whole system
to stall).

For memory dump support (it consumes quite a lot of memory) we need to control
what is exactly stored to the crash dump. Add a module parameter call
coredump_mask to do that. It's a bit mask of these values:
enum ath10k_fw_crash_dump_type {
ATH10K_FW_CRASH_DUMP_REGISTERS = 0,
ATH10K_FW_CRASH_DUMP_CE_DATA = 1,
ATH10K_FW_CRASH_DUMP_MAX,
};
For example, if we only want to store CE_DATA we would enable bit 2:
modprobe ath10k_core coredump_mask=0x2

With current NAPI implementation, NAPI poll can deliver more frames
to net core than allotted budget. This may cause warning in napi_poll.
Remaining quota is not accounted, while processing amsdus in
rx_in_ord_ind and rx_ind queue. Adding num_msdus at last can not
prevent delivering more frames to net core. With this change,
all amdus from both in_ord_ind and rx_ind queues are processed and
enqueued into common skb list instead of delivering into mac80211.
Later msdus from common queue are dequeued and delivered depends on
quota availability. This change also simplifies the rx processing in

If a 5 GHz radio is calibrated for operation in both
the low band (channels 36 to 64) and high band(channels 100 to 169),
hardware allows operations in all the listed channels. However,
if the chip has been calibrated only for the low/high band and
a high/low band channel is configured, due to lack of calibration
there will be potentially invalid signal on those non calibrated channels.
To avoid this problem this patch sets IEEE80211_CHAN_DISABLED flag for
those non calibrated channels by using low_5ghz_chan and high_5ghz_chan
values which we get from target through wmi service ready event.
Driver initialized flags are getting re initialized in handle_channel
in cfg80211. So calling the function to disable the non supported channel

Board Data File (BDF) is loaded upon driver boot-up procedure. The right
board data file is identified, among others, by device and sybsystem ids.
The problem, however, can occur when the (default) board data file cannot
fulfill with the vendor requirements and it is necessary to use a different
board data file.
To solve the issue QCA uses SMBIOS type 0xF8 to store Board Data File Name
Extension to specify the extension/variant name. The driver will take the
extension suffix into consideration and will load the right (non-default)
board data file if necessary.
If it is unnecessary to use extension board data file, please leave the
SMBIOS field blank and default configuration will be used.
Example:
If a default board data file for a specific board is identified by a string
"bus=pci,vendor=168c,device=003e,subsystem-vendor=1028,
subsystem-device=0310"
then the OEM specific data file, if used, could be identified by variant
suffix:
"bus=pci,vendor=168c,device=003e,subsystem-vendor=1028,
subsystem-device=0310,variant=DE_1AB"
If board data file name extension is set but board-2.bin does not contain
board data file for the variant, the driver will fallback to the default
board data file not to break backward compatibility.
This was first applied in commit f2593cb1b2 ("ath10k: Search SMBIOS for OEM
board file extension") but later reverted in commit 005c3490e9 ("Revert
"ath10k: Search SMBIOS for OEM board file extension"". This patch is now

Station pointers are RCU protected so driver must
be extra careful if it tries to store them
internally for later use outside of the RCU
section it obtained it in.
It was possible for station teardown to race with
some htt events. The possible outcome could be a
use-after-free and a crash.
Only peer-flow-control capable firmware was
affected (so hardware-wise qca99x0 and qca4019).
This could be done in sta_state() itself via
explicit synchronize_net() call but there's
already a convenient sta_pre_rcu_remove() op that
can be hooked up to avoid extra rcu stall.
The peer->sta pointer itself can't be set to
NULL/ERR_PTR because it is later used in
sta_state() for extra sanity checks.

firmware will configure appropriate rxfilters by default for mesh
vdev during vdev creation. This change fixes monitor vdev creation

Per peer tx stats are part of 'HTT_10_4_T2H_MSG_TYPE_PEER_STATS'
event, Firmware sends one HTT event for every four PPDUs.
HTT payload has success pkts/bytes, failed pkts/bytes, retry
pkts/bytes and rate info per ppdu.
Peer stats are enabled through 'WMI_SERVICE_PEER_STATS',
which are nowadays enabled by default.
Parse peer stats and update the tx rate information per STA.
tx rate, Peer stats are tested on QCA4019 with Firmware version
10.4-3.2.1-00028.

This partially reverts 'commit 2cdce425aa
("ath10k: Fix broken NULL func data frame status for 10.4")'
Unfortunately this breaks sending NULL func and the existing
issue of obtaining proper tx status for NULL function will be
fixed. Also update the comments for feature flag added to be
useless and not working

Commit 0b8e3c4ca2 ("ath10k: move cal data len to hw_params") broke retrieving
the calibration data from cal_data debugfs file. The length of file was always
zero. The reason is:
static ssize_t ath10k_debug_cal_data_read(struct file *file,
char __user *user_buf,
size_t count, loff_t *ppos)
{
struct ath10k *ar = file->private_data;
void *buf = file->private_data;
This is obviously bogus, private_data cannot contain both struct ath10k and the
buffer. Fix it by caching calibration data to ar->debug.cal_data. This also
allows it to be accessed when the device is not active (interface is down).
The cal_data buffer is fixed size because during the first firmware probe we
don't yet know what will be the lenght of the calibration data. It was simplest
just to use a fixed length. There's a WARN_ON() in
ath10k_debug_cal_data_fetch() if the buffer is too small.
Tested with qca988x and firmware 10.2.4.70.56.

Unfortunately ath10k does not generally allow modifying the coverage class
with the stock firmware and Qualcomm has so far refused to implement this
feature so that it can be properly supported in ath10k. If we however know
the registers that need to be modified for proper operation with a higher
coverage class, then we can do these modifications from the driver.
This is a hack and might cause subtle problems but as it's not enabled by
default (only when user space changes the coverage class explicitly) it should
not cause new problems for existing setups. But still this should be considered
as an experimental feature and used with caution.
This patch implements the support for first generation cards (QCA9880, QCA9887
and so on) which are based on a core that is similar to ath9k. The registers
are modified in place and need to be re-written every time the firmware sets
them. To achieve this the register status is verified after certain WMI events
from the firmware.
The coverage class may not be modified temporarily right after the card
re-initializes the registers. This is for example the case during scanning.
Thanks to Sebastian Gottschall <s.gottschall@dd-wrt.com> for initially
working on a userspace support for this. This patch wouldn't have been
possible without this documentation.

This overrides whatever regulatory the device
EEPROM contains and uses what the platform says
instead - in this implementation the ACPI driver.
In case the hint is not programmed or corrupted (0xffff)
the device falls back to the eeprom programmed settings.

Add NAPI support for rx and tx completion. NAPI poll is scheduled
from interrupt handler. The design is as below
- on interrupt
- schedule napi and mask interrupts
- on poll
- process all pipes (no actual Tx/Rx)
- process Rx within budget
- if quota exceeds budget reschedule napi poll by returning budget
- process Tx completions and update budget if necessary
- process Tx fetch indications (pull-push)
- push any other pending Tx (if possible)
- before resched or napi completion replenish htt rx ring buffer
- if work done < budget, complete napi poll and unmask interrupts
This change also get rid of two tasklets (intr_tq and txrx_compl_task).
Measured peak throughput with NAPI on IPQ4019 platform in controlled
environment. No noticeable reduction in throughput is seen and also
observed improvements in CPU usage. Approx. 15% CPU usage got reduced
in UDP uplink case.

Older firmware with HTT delivers incorrect tx status for null func
frames to driver, but this fixed in 10.2 and 10.4 firmware versions.
Also this workaround results in reporting of incorrect null func status
for 10.4. Fix this is by introducing a firmware feature flag for 10.4
so that this workaround is skipped and proper tx status for null func
frames are reported
