2025-05-16wifi: ath12k: add support to reap and process monitor status ringKang Yang
WCN7850 uses monitor status ring to store status buffer. Status buffer contains many TLVs such as MPDU START/END. From these TLVs, can get necessary information about related payload, such as PPDU ID. Add helper function to reap status buffer from monitor status ring so that can parse TLVs later by ath12k_dp_mon_parse_rx_dest().

2025-04-07wifi: ath12k: Fix invalid memory access while forming 802.11 headerP Praneesh
While forming the 802.11 header from the rx descriptor, skb_push() is performed for the 802.11 header length and then calls ath12k_dp_rx_desc_get_dot11_hdr(). Since skb_push() moves the skb->data pointer backwards by the 802.11 header length, the rx descriptor points to a different memory area than intended, causing invalid information to be fetched from the rx descriptor. Also, when IV and ICV are not stripped from the given MSDU, mac80211 performs PN validation for these MSDUs, which requires the crypto header. Before forming the crypto header from the given rx descriptor, skb_push() is performed for the crypto header length, which overwrites the memory pointed to by the rx descriptor, causing invalid information to form the 802.11 header. Fix these issues by moving all rx descriptor accesses before the skb_push() operation which ensures the proper 802.11 headers are generated from the given rx descriptor and removing ath12k_dp_rxdesc_get_mpdu_frame_ctrl() for filling frame control, as this information is already fetched by ath12k_dp_rx_desc_get_dot11_hdr().

Currently, the existing code lacks functionality to clear the qdesc array in the REO cache. As a result, any updates in the LUT are not reflected in the REO cache. To address this issue, add functionality to clear the qdesc array in the REO cache during a peer TID update.

When more than one pdev is supported in the chip/SoC, the packet belonging to second pdev is given to first pdev due to not identifying the MAC id in the WBM error path. So ping fails. In WBM error path, src link id information not available in the descriptor. So get this information from the msdu_end 64bit tag. It is necessary to get the src link id to identify the MAC id in the given chip. Then only we can pass the skb to the corresponding pdev. The msdu_end 64bit tag is available only if compact Rx TLVs descriptors are used. Thus, src link id is fetched correctly in WBM error path when compact descriptors are in use.

2024-02-02wifi: ath12k: subscribe required word mask from rx tlvKarthikeyan Kathirvel
Most of the RX descriptors fields are currently not used in the ath12k driver. Hence add support to selectively subscribe to the required quad words (64 bits) within msdu_end and mpdu_start of rx_desc. Add compact rx_desc structures and configure the bit mask for Rx TLVs (msdu_end, mpdu_start, mpdu_end) via registers. With these registers SW can configure to DMA the partial TLV struct to Rx buffer. Each TLV type has its own register to configure the mask value. The mask value configured in register will indicate if a particular QWORD has to be written to rx buffer or not i.e., if Nth bit is enabled in the mask Nth QWORD will be written and it will not be written if the bit is disabled in mask. While 0th bit indicates whether TLV tag will be written or not. Advantages of Qword subscription of TLVs - Avoid multiple cache-line misses as the all the required fields of the TLV are within 128 bytes. - Memory optimization as TLVs + DATA + SHINFO can fit in 2k buffer even for 64 bit kernel.

With word mask subscription support, the rx_desc structure will change. The fields in this structure rx_desc will be reduced to only the required fields. To make word mask subscription changes compatible with the older firmware version (firmware that does not support word mask subscription), two different structures of rx_desc will be required for the same hardware. The hardware param hal_desc_sz value cannot be constant for the same hardware. It depends on the size of rx_desc structure which may change based on firmware capability to support word mask subscription. Hence, remove hal_desc_sz from hardware param and add hal_rx_ops to get the size of rx_desc in run time.

2022-11-29wifi: ath12k: driver for Qualcomm Wi-Fi 7 devicesKalle Valo
ath12k is a new mac80211 driver for Qualcomm Wi-Fi 7 devices, first supporting QCN9274 and WCN7850 PCI devices. QCN9274 supports both AP and station; WCN7850 supports only station mode. Monitor mode is not (yet) supported. Only PCI bus devices are supported. ath12k is forked from an earlier version of ath11k. It was simpler to have a "clean start" for the new generation and not try to share the code with ath11k. This makes maintenance easier and avoids major changes in ath11k, which would have significantly increased the risk of regressions in existing setups. ath12k uses le32 and cpu_to_le32() macros to handle endian conversions, instead of using the firmware byte swap feature utilized by ath11k. There is only one kernel module, named ath12k.ko. Currently ath12k only supports HE mode (IEEE 802.11ax) or older, but work is ongoing to add EHT mode (IEEE 802.11be) support. The size of the driver is ~41 kLOC and 45 files. To make the review easier, this initial version of ath12k does not support Device Tree, debugfs or any other extra features. Those will be added later, after ath12k is accepted to upstream. The driver is build tested by Intel's kernel test robot with both GCC and Clang. Sparse reports no warnings. The driver is mostly free of checkpatch warnings, albeit few of the warnings are omitted on purpose, list of them here: https://github.com/qca/qca-swiss-army-knife/blob/master/tools/scripts/ath12k/ath12k-check#L52 The driver has had multiple authors who are listed in alphabetical order below.
