      These memory chunks are often used as 'swap' by the NIC,
      so it will be both reading and writing to these areas.
      
      This seems to fix errors like this on my x86-64 machine:

      ath10k: fix Tx DMA alloc failure during continuous wifi down/up · 9ec34a86
      Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan authored
      
      
      With maximum number of vap's configured in a two radio supported
      systems of ~256 Mb RAM, doing a continuous wifi down/up and
      intermittent traffic streaming from the connected stations results
      in failure to allocate contiguous memory for tx buffers. This results
      in the disappearance of all VAP's and a manual reboot is needed as
      this is not a crash (or) OOM(for OOM killer to be invoked). To address
      this allocate contiguous memory for tx buffers one time and re-use them
      until the modules are unloaded but this results in a slight increase in
      memory footprint of ath10k when the wifi is down, but the modules are
      still loaded. Also as of now we use a separate bool 'tx_mem_allocated'
      to keep track of the one time memory allocation, as we cannot come up
      with something like 'ath10k_tx_{register,unregister}' before
      'ath10k_probe_fw' is called as 'ath10k_htt_tx_alloc_cont_frag_desc'
      memory allocation is dependent on the hw_param 'continuous_frag_desc'

      ath10k: fix soft lockup during firmware crash/hw-restart · c2cac2f7
      Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan authored
      During firmware crash (or) user requested manual restart
      the system gets into a soft lock up state because of the
      below root cause.
      
      During user requested hardware restart / firmware crash
      the system goes into a soft lockup state as 'napi_synchronize'
      is called after 'napi_disable' (which sets 'NAPI_STATE_SCHED'
      bit) and it sleeps into infinite loop as it waits for
      'NAPI_STATE_SCHED' to be cleared. This condition is hit because
      'ath10k_hif_stop' is called twice as below (resulting in calling
      'napi_synchronize' after 'napi_disable')
      
      'ath10k_core_restart' -> 'ath10k_hif_stop' (ATH10K_STATE_ON) ->
      -> 'ieee80211_restart_hw' -> 'ath10k_start' -> 'ath10k_halt' ->
      'ath10k_core_stop' -> 'ath10k_hif_stop' (ATH10K_STATE_RESTARTING)
      
      Fix this by calling 'ath10k_halt' in ath10k_core_restart itself
      as it makes more sense before informing mac80211 to restart h/w
      Also remove 'ath10k_halt' in ath10k_start for the state of 'restarting'

      ath9k: feed only active spectral / dfs-detector · 87fedb97
      Zefir Kurtisi authored
      
      
      Radar pulse and spectral scan reports are provided by the HW
      with the ATH9K_RXERR_PHY flag set. Those are forwarded to
      the dfs-detector and spectral module for further processing.
      
      For some older chips, the pre-conditions checked in those
      modules are ambiguous, since ATH9K_PHYERR_RADAR is used to
      tag both types. As a result, spectral frames are fed into
      the dfs-detector and vice versa.
      
      This could lead to a false radar detection on a non-DFS
      channel (which is uncritical), but more relevant it causes
      useless CPU load for processing invalid frames.
      
      This commit ensures that the dfs-detector and spectral
      collector are only fed when they are active.

      ath9k: fix ath9k_hw_gpio_get() to return 0 or 1 on success · 91851cc7
      Matthias Schiffer authored
      Commit b2d70d49 ("ath9k: make GPIO API to support both of WMAC and
      SOC") refactored ath9k_hw_gpio_get() to support both WMAC and SOC GPIOs,
      changing the return on success from 1 to BIT(gpio). This broke some callers
      like ath_is_rfkill_set(). This doesn't fix any known bug in mainline at the
      moment, but should be fixed anyway.
      
      Instead of fixing all callers, change ath9k_hw_gpio_get() back to only
      return 0 or 1.

      ath10k: remove set/get_tsf ieee80211_ops · f6f64cfb
      Pedersen, Thomas authored
      
      
      Neither of these did the right thing:
      
      - get_tsf just returned 0
      - set_tsf assumed a simple offset was applied against
        get_tsf(), which works, except in the case of
        calculating TSF from rx_mactime (actual TSF).
      
      Just remove them for now. We can reimplement set_tsf in
      terms of TSF increment/decrement in the future if get_tsf
      is ever supported by FW.

      ath10k: implement offset_tsf ieee80211_op · 973324ff
      Pedersen, Thomas authored
      
      
      Current set_tsf is implemented in terms of TSF_INCREMENT
      only. Instead support new WMI command TSF_DECREMENT and
      export these through offset_tsf. Advantage is we get
      more accurate TSF adjustments, and don't calculate wrong
      offset in case absolute TSF was calculated from rx_mactime
      (actual TSF).
      
      The new WMI command is available in firmware
      10.4-3.2.1-00033 for QCA4019 chips. Old drivers on new
      firmware or vice versa shouldn't  be a problem since
      get/set tsf logic was already broken.

      ath10k: advertize hardware packet loss mechanism · ff32eeb8
      Rajkumar Manoharan authored
      
      
      Indicate hardware (or firmware) supports that CQM packet-loss report
      will be generated based on station kickout algorithm. As of now mac80211
      tracks connection loss by missing msdu counts (50) whereas ath10k
      firmware tracks them by missing ppdus (+ BAR tries). While firmware is
      trying to adapt its rate table, mac80211 might send out low_ack event to
      hostapd. This is causing frequent connect and disconnect iteration under
      noisy environment or when station is roaming around.
