[PATCH] rtlwifi: rtl8188ee: enable MSI interrupts support

[Adam Lee]

Some HP notebooks using this rtl8188ee hardware module can't get
AP scan results with pin-based interrupts, enabling MSI interrupts could
fix it.

[PATCH] rtlwifi: add MSI interrupts support

[Adam Lee]

Add MSI interrupts support, enable it when msi_support flag is true,
also could fallback to pin-based interrupts mode if MSI mode fails.

This is the base of "[PATCH] rtlwifi: rtl8188ee: enable MSI interrupts
support" in thread. We met this issue[1] while enabling some HP
notebooks, whose wifi hardware modules can't get AP scan results with
pin-based interrupts.

Submitting these two patches ahead of RealTek's schedule so we can fix
it sooner for non-preload distro users.

Your first patch turns on MSI support unconditionally. That implies that there 
are no harmful effects for attempting to use MSI on a box where it is not 
needed, and/or not implemented. If that is the case, then the msi_support bool 
should be eliminated, your first patch dropped, and this one revised 
appropriately. Driver rtl8723be added this bool, but never uses it. Once that 
driver reaches mainline, a patch can be prepared to remove the variable.

I think this patch should be applied to stable. Applying it back to 3.10+ should 
be far enough. That will pick up the initial submission of the RTL8188EE driver. 
Boxes that need MSI interrupts are not likely to use any of the older chips.

There are some additional in-line comments below.

I like a blank line between the declarations and the code.

Doesn't checkpatch.pl complain about the alignment here?

As discussed above, this test is not needed. If it were, the current version of 
checkpatch.pl complains about the "== true" part.

Again "if (rtlpci->using_msi)" is preferred.

When you resubmit, use "[PATCH V2]" in the subject, and use the proper CC stable 
with [3.10+] following the address.

also could fallback to pin-based interrupts mode if MSI mode fails.

Hi, Larry

Just confirmed with RealTek wireless engineer, their policy is:

> Case 1: if the platform supports both MSI and Pin-based, our driver will use MSI.
> Case 2: if the platform supports MSI only, our driver will use MSI.
> Case 3: if the platform supports Pin-Based only, out driver will use Pin-Based.

I think it's safe enough to apply the first "rtlwifi: rtl8188ee: enable
MSI interrupts support" patch also, and the msi_support bool should not
be eliminated(at least for now) in case some wifi modules don't support
MSI well.

Thanks.

I think so, but Adam needs to resubmit both patches in a V3.

[PATCH v3 1/2] rtlwifi: add MSI interrupts mode support

[Adam Lee]

Add MSI interrupts mode support, enable it when submodules' msi_support
flag is true, also could fallback to pin-based interrupts mode if MSI
interrupts mode fails.

RealTek's policy(on modules which work well with MSI interrupts mode) is:

> If the platform supports both MSI and pin-based, use MSI.
> If the platform supports MSI only, use MSI.
> If the platform supports pin-based only, use pin-based.

Also as RealTek's testing results, RTL8188EE and RTL8723BE work well
with both MSI mode and pin-based mode fallback.

[PATCH v3 2/2] rtlwifi: rtl8188ee: enable MSI interrupts mode

[Adam Lee]

Some HP notebooks using this rtl8188ee hardware module can't get
AP scan results with pin-based interrupts mode, enabling MSI interrupts
mode could fix it.

As RealTek's testing results, RTL8188EE works well with both MSI mode
and pin-based mode fallback.
