Alex Romosan reported that since the mac80211 changes in
"mac80211: start auth/assoc timeout on frame status" and
the subsequent fixes in "mac80211: fix auth/assoc timeout
handling" (commits 1672c0e31917 and 89afe614c0c) there's
sometimes an issue connecting to a 5 GHz network with the
iwlwifi DVM driver.
The reason appears to be that since these commits any bad
TX status makes mac80211 immediately try again, causing
all of the authentication attempts to be quickly rejected
by the firmware as it hasn't heard a beacon yet. Before,
it would wait for the timeout regardless of status.
To fix this, invoke the passive-no-RX workaround when not
associated yet as well. This will cause the first frame
to get lost, but then the driver will stop the queues and
the second attempt will only be transmitted after hearing
a beacon, thus delaying it appropriately to not make the
firmware reject it again.

There is a race between the restart flow and the workers.
The workers are cancelled after the fw is already killed
and might send HCMD when there is fw to handle them.
Simply check that there is a fw to which the HCMD can be
sent before actually sending it.

There are a number of situations in which mac80211 only
really needs to flush queues for one virtual interface,
and in fact during this frames might be transmitted on
other virtual interfaces. Calculate and pass a queue
bitmap to the driver so it knows which queues to flush.

This allows to test fw restart flow. The hook in transport
layer doesn't really make the fw assert. Moving this hook
to the op_mode allows to use the fw API to actually send a
host command that will make the fw assert.
Change the restart_fw module parameter to be a boolean on
the way.

Recently in commit 8a964f44e01ad3bbc208c3e80d931ba91b9ea786
("iwlwifi: always copy first 16 bytes of commands") we fixed
the problem that the hardware writes back to the command and
that could overwrite parts of the data that was still needed
and would thus be corrupted.
Investigating this problem more closely we found that this
write-back isn't really ordered very well with respect to
other DMA traffic. Therefore, it sometimes happened that the
write-back occurred after unmapping the command again which
is clearly an issue and could corrupt the next allocation
that goes to that spot, or (better) cause IOMMU faults.
To fix this, allocate coherent memory for the first 16 bytes
of each command, containing the write-back part, and use it
for all queues. All the dynamic DMA mappings only need to be
TO_DEVICE then. This ensures that even when the write-back
happens "too late" it can't hit memory that has been freed
or a mapping that doesn't exist any more.
Since now the actual command is no longer modified, we can
also remove CMD_WANT_HCMD and get rid of the DMA sync that
was necessary to update the scratch pointer.

Instead of modifying the HT SMPS capability field
for stations, track the SMPS mode explicitly in a
new field in the station struct and use it in the

For VHT, many more bandwidth changes are possible. As a first
step, stop toggling the IEEE80211_HT_CAP_SUP_WIDTH_20_40 flag
in the HT capabilities and instead introduce a bandwidth field
indicating the currently usable bandwidth to transmit to the
station. Of course, make all drivers use it.
To achieve this, make ieee80211_ht_cap_ie_to_sta_ht_cap() get
the station as an argument, rather than the new capabilities,
so it can set up the new bandwidth field.
If the station is a VHT station and VHT bandwidth is in use,
also set the bandwidth accordingly.
Doing this allows us to get rid of the supports_40mhz flag as
the HT capabilities now reflect the true capability instead of
the current setting.
While at it, also fix ieee80211_ht_cap_ie_to_sta_ht_cap() to not
ignore HT cap overrides when MCS TX isn't supported (not that it
really happens...)

Implement proper WoWLAN wakeup and query the wakeup
reasons, then report them to userspace.
Note that this is tricky: a firmware bug (that has
been fixed in later versions) means that the status
command response isn't properly closed in hardware
and thus won't arrive at the host. Sending another
command after it closes the status response but the
next command gets stuck, etc. We reset the device
after querying though, so this is not a big issue,
just makes for strange code.

There are only a few drivers that use HW scan, and
all of those don't need a non-idle transition before
starting the scan -- some don't even care about idle
at all. Remove the flag and code associated with it.
The only driver that really actually needed this is
wl1251 and it can just do it itself in the hw_scan
callback -- implement that.

With new transports coming up, move to threaded
interrupt handling now. This has the advantage
that we can use the same locking scheme with all
different transports we may need to implement.
Note that the TX path obviously still runs in a
tasklet, so some spin_lock() calls need to change
to spin_lock_bh() calls to properly lock out the
TX path.
In my test on a Calpella platform this has no
impact on throughput or latency.
Also add lockdep annotations to avoid lockups due
to catch sending synchronous commands or using
locks that connect with them from the irq thread.

Currently, when the driver requires the DTIM period,
mac80211 will wait to hear a beacon before association.
This behavior is suboptimal since some drivers may be
able to deal with knowing the DTIM period after the
association, if they get it at all.
To address this, notify the drivers with bss_info_changed
with the new BSS_CHANGED_DTIM_PERIOD flag when the DTIM
becomes known. This might be when changing to associated,
or later when the entire association was done with only
probe response information.
Rename the hardware flag for the current behaviour to
IEEE80211_HW_NEED_DTIM_BEFORE_ASSOC to more accurately
reflect its behaviour. IEEE80211_HW_NEED_DTIM_PERIOD is
no longer accurate as all drivers get the DTIM period
now, just not before association.

The rate scaling won't treat the information in a frame
with IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU set if IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU
is cleared. But all the frames coming from an AGG tx queue
have IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU set, and IEEE80211_TX_STAT_AMPDU
is set only if the frame was sent in an AMPDU.
This means that all the data in frames in AGG tx queues that
aren't sent as an AMPDU is thrown away.
This is even more harmful when in bad link conditions, the
frames are sent in an AMPDU and then finally sent as single
frame. So a lot of failures weren't reported and the rate
scaling got stuck in high rates leading to very poor
connectivity.
Fix that by clearing IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU when the frame
isn't part of an AMPDU.
This bug was introduced by
2eb81a40aa521035ff9c8c8309e482dff523f8c9
iwlwifi: don't clear CTL_AMPDU on frame status
This fix basically reverts the aforementioned commit.
