6ac27689b0 brcmfmac: use device memsize config from fw if defined
Newer type pcie devices have memory which get shared between fw and
hw. The division of this memory is done firmware compile time. As a
result the ramsize as used by driver needs to be adjusted for this.
This is done by reading the memory size from the firmware.

73345fd212 brcmfmac: Configure country code using device specific settings
Country code configuration in a device is a device specific

where the translation table can be stored. Additional patches will

280ab987ef wil6210: fix race conditions in p2p listen and search
Fix 2 race conditions found during test runs of P2P discovery:
1. Because wil_p2p_cancel_listen was not protected, user space
could start a new P2P listen/search before wmi_stop_discovery
completed. This caused a crash in the firmware.
2. In P2P listen, when listen timer expires and user space calls
cancel_remain_on_channel at the same time, code could send the
cfg80211_remain_on_channel_expired notification twice.

Added protections with wil->mutex to several places that call
wmi_stop_discovery.

4332cac17b wil6210: P2P_DEVICE virtual interface support
Added support for the P2P_DEVICE virtual interface. This interface
is intended for P2P management operations such as discovery and
GO negotiation. Normally it is implemented by drivers to allow
a separate interface for P2P management with its own MAC address,
but for 11ad drivers it is needed to support P2P search, since it
cannot otherwise be separated from normal scan.

Since we only support a single interface/MAC address, we can't
easily separate between primary and P2P_DEVICE interfaces.
For example when a management packet arrives we can't tell for
which interface it is intended. To work around this, we store
a pointer to the interface where the last "radio operation" was
triggered such as scan or remain on channel, and we forward
management packets and scan results to this interface.

eabb03b4a3 wil6210: basic PBSS/PCP support
PBSS (Personal Basic Service Set) is a new BSS type for DMG
networks. It is similar to infrastructure BSS, having an AP-like
entity called PCP (PBSS Control Point), but it has few differences.
For example, stations inside a PBSS can communicate directly, and
the PCP role can be transferred between stations.

This change adds PBSS support, and has 2 main parts:
1. When starting an AP, add an option to start as a PCP instead.
This is implemented by a new PBSS flag which is passed as part of
the cfg80211_ap_settings structure.
2. When connecting to a BSS, add an option to connect to a PCP
instead of an AP. This is again implemented by a new PBSS flag,
added to the cfg80211_connect_params structure.

74997a53d2 wil6210: add support for discovery mode during scan
Add support for discovery mode during scan. When discovery mode
is active, station transmits special beacons while scanning.
This can optimize the scan mainly when there is only one AP/PCP
around.
Discovery mode is implicitly used by firmware during P2P search.
Since there is currently no use case where user space has a
reason to directly control discovery mode, we expose it only
through a debugfs flag.
Also fix name confusion in the wmi_scan_type enumeration.
The type previously called WMI_LONG_SCAN is actually
WMI_ACTIVE_SCAN.

361486b27c wil6210: remove BACK RX and TX workers
WMI synchronous handling has changed and WMI calls that provide
a buffer for the reply are completed in the WMI interrupt context.
This allows sending the RX and TX BACK commands from the WMI event
handler without the need for the worker thread.
This is a better approach as it can decrease the handshake time
in the connect flow and prevent race conditions in case of fast
disconnects. An example for such a race is handling of wil_back_rx_handle
during a disconnect event, as wil_back_rx_handle is not protected by
the wil mutex and a disconnect can be handled after sta->status is
verified as connected.

91f66a3c67 iwlwifi: mvm: avoid panics with thermal device usage
Thermal zone device registration can fail, and in this case
we don't want to remove WiFi functionality. This is why the
thermal zone registration function is void, and the flows
continue even if the thermal zone device registration failed.
Same applies for the cooling device.

This means that we at least need to remember that the thermal
zone device didn't register properly and take the minimal
precautions to avoid panic'ing when we access it.

This was missing.

we need to forbid RTPM in the driver remove op.

Additionally, remove an unnecessary pm_runtime_disable() call, move

99ad1cba31 ath10k: change htt tx desc/qcache peer limit config
The number of HTT Tx descriptors and qcache peer
limit aren't hw-specific. In fact they are
firmware specific and should not be placed in
hw_params.

The QCA4019 limits were submitted with the peer
flow control firmware only and to my understanding
there's no non-peer-flow-ctrl QCA4019 firmware.

However QCA99X0 is planned to run firmware
supporting the feature as well. Therefore this
patch enables QCA99X0 to use 2500 tx descriptors
whenever possible instead of just 1424.

43c9e3846b ath10k: fix HTT Tx CE ring size
QCA4019 can queue up to 2500 frames at a time.
This means it requires roughly 5000 entires on the
ring to work properly. Otherwise random tx failure
may occur.

426e10eaf7 ath10k: implement push-pull tx
The current/old tx path design was that host, at
its own leisure, pushed tx frames to the device.
For HTT there was ~1000-1400 msdu queue depth.

After reaching that limit the driver would request
mac80211 to stop queues. There was little control
over what packets got in there as far as
DA/RA was considered so it was rather easy to
starve per-station traffic flows.

With MU-MIMO this became a significant problem
because the queue depth was insufficient to buffer
frames from multiple clients (which could have
different signal quality and capabilities) in an
efficient fashion.

Hence the new tx path in 10.4 was introduced: a
pull-push mode.

Firmware and host can share tx queue state via
DMA. The state is logically a 2 dimensional array
addressed via peer_id+tid pair. Each entry is a
counter (either number of bytes or packets. Host
keeps it updated and firmware uses it for
scheduling Tx pull requests to host.

This allows MU-MIMO to become a lot more effective
with 10+ clients.

c1a43d9720 ath10k: implement updating shared htt txq state
Firmware 10.4.3 onwards can support a pull-push Tx
model where it shares a Tx queue state with the
host.

The host updates the DMA region it pointed to
during HTT setup whenever number of software
queued from (on host) changes. Based on this
information firmware issues fetch requests to the
host telling the host how many frames from a list
of given stations/tids should be submitted to the
firmware.

The code won't be called because not all
appropriate HTT events are processed yet.

6942726f7f ath10k: add fast peer_map lookup
The pull-push functionality of 10.4 will be based
on peer_id and tid. These will need to be mapped,
eventually, to ieee80211_txq to be used with
ieee80211_tx_dequeue().

Iterating over existing stations every time
peer_id needs to be mapped to a station would be
inefficient wrt CPU time.

The new firmware, which will be the only user of
the code flow-wise, will guarantee to use low
peer_ids first so despite peer_map's apparent huge
size d-cache thrashing should not be a problem.

Older firmware hot paths will effectively not use
peer_map.

bb8f0c6af8 ath10k: maintain peer_id for each sta and vif
The 10.4.3 firmware with congestion control
guarantees that each peer has only a single
peer_id mapping.

The 1:1 mapping isn't the case for older firmwares
(e.g. 10.4.1, 10.2, 10.1) but it should not
matter. This 1:1 mapping is going to be only used
by future code which inherently (flow-wise) is for
10.4.3.

6421969f24 ath10k: refactor tx pending management
Tx pending counter logic assumed that the sk_buff
is already known and hence was performed in HTT
functions themselves.

However, for the sake of future wake_tx_queue()
usage the driver must be able to tell whether it
can submit more frames to firmware before it
dequeues frame from ieee80211_txq (and thus long
before HTT Tx functions are called) because once a
frame is dequeued it cannot be requeud back to
mac80211.

This prepares the driver for future changes.
