[PATCH 1/4] wcn36xx: Fix multiple AMPDU sessions support

[PATCH 1/4] wcn36xx: Fix multiple AMPDU sessions support

[Loic Poulain]

Several AMPDU sessions can be started, e.g. for different TIDs.
Currently the driver does not take care of the session ID when
requesting block-ack (statically set to 0), which leads to never
block-acked packet with sessions other than 0.

Fix this by saving the session id when creating the ba session and
use it in subsequent ba operations.

This issue can be reproduced with iperf in two steps (tid 0 strem
then tid 6 stream).

1.0 iperf -s                                # wcn36xx side
1.1 iperf -c ${IP_ADDR}                     # host side

Then

2.0 iperf -s -u -S 0xC0                     # wcn36xx side
2.1 iperf -c ${IP_ADDR} -u -S 0xC0 -l 2000  # host side

[PATCH 2/4] wcn36xx: Add TX ack support

[Loic Poulain]

The controller is capable of reporting TX indication which can be used
to report TX ack. It was only partially implemented.

What's this timer thing? The commit log mentions nothing about that. To
me this looks like a some kind of TX timeout detection and has nothing
to do ACK handling, but of course I might have misunderstood.

Should it be in a separate patch to follow one logical change per patch
rule?

Also there's no mention of these changes in the commit log. Should these
in a third patch as they are more like a separate change?

This is part of ack management, I could have named it dex_ack_timer though...
When we send a packet requesting explicit ack notification via mac80211
status callback, we ask the firmware to return an ack event and stop tx queue
temporarily until the ack event is received. But if for any reasons the 802.11
packet is not acked, firmware never sends this event, causing stale of the
TX path.

So the timer is here to handle the no-ack case, in order to
1. run the mac80211 status callback (packet not acked)
2. unblock TX queue

Correct, this change increases the number of TX retries, to improve robustness,
and have more chances to have a packet acked. 15 is the default value defined
by the downstream driver. I observed much less ack timeout in a noisy
environment with that change.

So I can rework the commit for with ack timer info, and move the
config change in a separate change.

Loic

[PATCH 3/4] wcn36xx: Fix TX data path

[Loic Poulain]

This patch contains the following fixes:

- Use correct queue for submitting QoS packet. The queue id to use
is a one-to-one mapping with the TID.

- Don't encrypt a frame with IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_DONT_ENCRYPT flag.

- Use the 'special queue' for null packets, preventing the firmware
to submit it as AMPDU.

[PATCH 4/4] wcn36xx: Fix software-driven scan

[Loic Poulain]

For software-driven scan, rely on mac80211 software scan instead
of internal driver implementation. The internal implementation
cause connection trouble since it keeps the antenna busy during
the entire scan duration, moreover it's only a passive scanning
(no probe request). Therefore, let mac80211 manages sw scan.

Note: we fallback to software scan if firmware does not report
scan offload support or if we need to scan the 5Ghz band (currently
not supported by the offload scan...).

What's the difference from the earlier version:

https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11609871/

A changelog would be nice.

No need to resend, I just wanted to understand if there are any changes.
In the future try to always include a changelog, that way I don't need

And don't send HTML mail, linux-wireless list drops it and then your
mail won't be visible in the patchwork either.
