      ath10k: correct the array index from mcs index for HT mode for QCA6174 · db04b755
      Wen Gong authored 
      The mcs index of HT mode is 0 to 31, please refer http://mcsindex.com/

.
Its spatial stream(Nss) number is from 1 to 4, mcs index is 0~7 for
Nss=1, 8~15 for Nss=2, 16~23 for Nss=3 and 24~31 is for Nss=4.

The mcs is reported from firmware in wmi_tlv_peer_stats_info of
event WMI_TLV_PEER_STATS_INFO_EVENTID, its range is from 0~15 for
QCA6174 SDIO and PCIe. It is for both Nss=1 and Nss=2, and it has 2
rate table supported_ht_mcs_rate_nss1 and supported_ht_mcs_rate_nss2
in ath10k, they are for Nss=1 and Nss=2, each table has 8 rates.

It need to find the matched row number with the mcs index, for example,
mcs index is 2, it is <=7, so it is Nss=1, and match row 2 in table of
Nss=1. If mcs index is 12, it is >= 8 and <= 15, so it is Nss=2, it
match row 4(12-8) in table of Nss=2. If mcs index is >=16, it is for
Nss=3/4, it need to add rate table, so it is not support in current
ath10k.

This patch is to find the row number in rate table of Nss=1 or Nss=2
with the mcs index reported from firmware.

This patch only effect the chips which supports_peer_stats_info of its
hw_params is true, it is true only for QCA6174 currently.

      ath10k: enable supports_peer_stats_info for QCA6174 PCI devices · cbcbabb9
      Wen Gong authored 
      

When using QCA6174 PCI devices working in station mode, after connected
to AP, tx bitrate is always '1.0 MBit/s' in output of command 'iw wlan0
station dump'. (QCA6174 SDIO devices are working fine.)

After this patch, it show correct bitrate:

Station c4:04:15:5d:97:22 (on wls1)
        inactive time:  312 ms
        rx bytes:       31496
        rx packets:     173
        tx bytes:       8625
        tx packets:     46
        tx retries:     0
        tx failed:      0
        signal:         -76 [-88, -80] dBm
        signal avg:     -75 [-82, -77] dBm
        tx bitrate:     39.0 MBit/s MCS 4
        rx bitrate:     26.0 MBit/s MCS 3

      ath10k: remove return for NL80211_STA_INFO_TX_BITRATE · 1cd6ba8a
      Wen Gong authored 
      

ath10k_sta_statistics is used to report many info to iw wlan0 link,
if it return for empty legacy and nss of arsta->txrate, then the other
stats after it will not be set.

It has 4 bit to set after the return:
NL80211_STA_INFO_TX_FAILED
NL80211_STA_INFO_RX_BITRATE
NL80211_STA_INFO_TX_BITRATE
NL80211_STA_INFO_TX_RETRIES

This patch not effect the info of above 4 bit for all hardware, reason
as below:

NL80211_STA_INFO_TX_FAILED is only for htt.disable_tx_comp is true, it
is for QCA6174 SDIO.

NL80211_STA_INFO_RX_BITRATE and NL80211_STA_INFO_TX_BITRATE are both
set in ath10k_mac_sta_get_peer_stats_info, it is only enabled for chips
which supports_peer_stats_info is true in hw_params, recently only for
QCA6174 SDIO, NL80211_STA_INFO_TX_BITRATE is set again in function
ath10k_mac_sta_get_peer_stats_info because the value which parsed from
arsta->tx_rate_code and arsta->tx_bitrate_kbps is correct for QCA6174
SDIO and PCIe, and the value arsta->txrate is not correct for QCA6174
SDIO and PCIe, so it need to set again with the correct value.

NL80211_STA_INFO_TX_RETRIES is use value of arsta->tx_retries, it is set
in ath10k_update_per_peer_tx_stats, which accumulate the retry_pkts in
HTT message from firmware, if the chips not support this feature, then
it is always 0 after accumulate, then iw wlan0 station dump always show
0 for retry count. If not set NL80211_STA_INFO_TX_RETRIES here, then it
is still 0, so the result is same, then set NL80211_STA_INFO_TX_RETRIES
has no effect.

      ath10k: add wmi service peer stat info for wmi tlv · e39f32af
      Wen Gong authored 
      

ath10k_sta_statistics is used to report info for iw wlan0 link,
it check ath10k_peer_stats_enabled, and ath10k_peer_stats_enabled
check WMI_SERVICE_PEER_STATS bit of ar->wmi.svc_map. SVCMAP() for
WMI_SERVICE_PEER_STATS was defined only for wmi_10x_svc_map and
wmi_10_4_svc_map interfaces, it missed in wmi_tlv_svc_map, so it is
not usable for iw wlan0 link for wmi tlv interface.

If firmware report WMI_TLV_SERVICE_PEER_STATS_INFO for wmi tlv, then
enable the WMI_SERVICE_PEER_STATS bit in ath10k, and then it pass check
in ath10k_peer_stats_enabled and ath10k_sta_statistics pass check.

      ath10k: start recovery process when payload length exceeds max htc length for sdio · 2fd3c8f3
      Wen Gong authored 
      

When simulate random transfer fail for sdio write and read, it happened
"payload length exceeds max htc length" and recovery later sometimes.

Test steps:
1. Add config and update kernel:
CONFIG_FAIL_MMC_REQUEST=y
CONFIG_FAULT_INJECTION=y
CONFIG_FAULT_INJECTION_DEBUG_FS=y

2. Run simulate fail:
cd /sys/kernel/debug/mmc1/fail_mmc_request
echo 10 > probability
echo 10 > times # repeat until hitting issues

3. It happened payload length exceeds max htc length.
[  199.935506] ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1: payload length 57005 exceeds max htc length: 4088
....
[  264.990191] ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1: payload length 57005 exceeds max htc length: 4088

4. after some time, such as 60 seconds, it start recovery which triggered
by wmi command timeout for periodic scan.
[  269.229232] ieee80211 phy0: Hardware restart was requested
[  269.734693] ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1: device successfully recovered

The simulate fail of sdio is not a real sdio transter fail, it only
set an error status in mmc_should_fail_request after the transfer end,
actually the transfer is success, then sdio_io_rw_ext_helper will
return error status and stop transfer the left data. For example,
the really RX len is 286 bytes, then it will split to 2 blocks in
sdio_io_rw_ext_helper, one is 256 bytes, left is 30 bytes, if the
first 256 bytes get an error status by mmc_should_fail_request,then
the left 30 bytes will not read in this RX operation. Then when the
next RX arrive, the left 30 bytes will be considered as the header
of the read, the top 4 bytes of the 30 bytes will be considered as
lookaheads, but actually the 4 bytes is not the lookaheads, so the len
from this lookaheads is not correct, it exceeds max htc length 4088
sometimes. When happened exceeds, the buffer chain is not matched between
firmware and ath10k, then it need to start recovery ASAP. Recently then
recovery will be started by wmi command timeout, but it will be long time
later, for example, it is 60+ seconds later from the periodic scan, if
it does not have periodic scan, it will be longer.

Start recovery when it happened "payload length exceeds max htc length"
will be reasonable.

This patch only effect sdio chips.

Tested with QCA6174 SDIO with firmware WLAN.RMH.4.4.1-00029.

      ath5k: Replace HTTP links with HTTPS ones · 5b525ce8
      Alexander A. Klimov authored 
      Rationale:
Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM
as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate.

Deterministic algorithm:
For each file:
  If not .svg:
    For each line:
      If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`:
        For each link, `\bhttp://[^#

 \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`:
	  If neither `\bgnu\.org/license`, nor `\bmozilla\.org/MPL\b`:
            If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions
            return 200 OK and serve the same content:
              Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

      ath: drop unnecessary list_empty · 18c25b40
      Julia Lawall authored 
      list_for_each_entry{_safe} is able to handle an empty list.
The only effect of avoiding the loop is not initializing the
index variable.
Drop list_empty tests in cases where these variables are not
used.

Note that list_for_each_entry{_safe} is defined in terms of
list_first_entry, which indicates that it should not be used on an
empty list.  But in list_for_each_entry{_safe}, the element obtained
by list_first_entry is not really accessed, only the address of its
list_head field is compared to the address of the list head, so the
list_first_entry is safe.

The semantic patch that makes this change for the list_for_each_entry
case is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/

)

expression x,e;
statement S;
