2016-05-10iwlwifi: mvm: support dqa-mode agg on non-shared queueLiad Kaufman
In non-shared queues, DQA requires re-configuring existing queues to become aggregated rather than allocating a new one. It also requires "un-aggregating" an existing queue when aggregations are turned off. Support this requirement for non-shared queues.

2016-05-10iwlwifi: mvm: use helpers to get iwl_mvm_staSara Sharon
Getting the mvm station out of station id requires dereferencing the station id to get ieee80211_sta, then checking for pointer validity and only then extract mvm station out. Given that there are helpers to do it - use them instead of duplicating the code whenever we need only mvm station.

2016-05-10iwlwifi: mvm: add reorder timeout per frameSara Sharon
Add a timer in order to release expired frames from the reorder buffer. This is needed since some APs do not retransmit frames to fill in the reorder holes and in TCP it results with a complete stall of traffic. This has a few side effects on the general design: The nssn may not reflect the the head of the reorder buffer. This situation is valid, and packets with SN lower than the reorder buffer head will be dropped. Another side effect is that since the reorder timer might expire we need to lock the reorder buffer. This however is fine since the locking is only inside a single reorder buffer between RX path and reorder timeout and there is no outside contention.

2016-05-10iwlwifi: mvm: add reorder buffer per queueSara Sharon
Next hardware will direct packets to core based on the TCP/UDP streams. This logic can create holes in reorder buffer since packets that belong to other stream were directed to a different core. However, those are valid holes and the packets can be indicated in L3 order. The hardware will utilize a mechanism of informing the driver of the normalized ssn and the driver shall release all packets that SN is lower than the nssn. This enables managing the reorder across the queues without sharing any data between them. The reorder buffer is allocated and released directly in the RX path in order to avoid various races between control path and rx path. The code utilizes the internal messaging to notify rx queues of when to delete the reorder buffer.

2016-05-10iwlwifi: mvm: add infrastructure for tracking BA session in driverSara Sharon
According to the spec when a BA session is started there is a timeout set for the session in the ADDBA request. If there is not activity on the TA/TID then the session expires and a DELBA is sent. In order to check for the timeout, data must be shared among the rx queues. Add a timer that runs as long as BA session is active for the station and stops aggregation session if needed. This patch also lays the infrastructure for the reordering buffer which will be enabled in the next patches.

2016-03-30iwlwifi: mvm: support bss dynamic alloc/dealloc of queuesLiad Kaufman
"DQA" is shorthand for "dynamic queue allocation". This enables on-demand allocation of queues per RA/TID rather than statically allocating per vif, thus allowing a potential benefit of various factors. Please refer to the DOC section this patch adds to sta.h to see a more in-depth explanation of this feature. There are many things to take into consideration when working in DQA mode, and this patch is only one in a series. Note that default operation mode is non-DQA mode, unless the FW indicates that it supports DQA mode. This patch enables support of DQA for a station connected to an AP, and works in a non-aggregated mode. When a frame for an unused RA/TID arrives at the driver, it isn't TXed immediately, but deferred first until a suitable queue is first allocated for it, and then TXed by a worker that both allocates the queues and TXes deferred traffic. When a STA is removed, its queues goes back into the queue pools for reuse as needed.

2016-02-27iwlwifi: mvm: add duplicate packet detection per rx queueSara Sharon
Next hardware will direct TCP/UDP streams to different cores. Packets belonging to the same stream will be directed to the same core. The result is that duplicates will be always directed to the same rx queue were the first packet was received. This enabled parallelizing the duplicate packet detection across the different cores, without sharing data between the rx queues.

2016-02-01iwlwifi: mvm: add new ADD_STA command versionSara Sharon

2015-12-20iwlwifi: mvm: Change number of associated stations when station becomes ↵Ayala Beker
associated Currently, the number of associated stations gets updated when adding a new station or removing it. This is incorrect as it's possible that a station was inserted before it was associated Fix this by increasing/decreasing ap_assoc_sta_count whenever a station transitions in/out the associated state.

2015-12-20iwlwifi: mvm: Add a station in monitor modeChaya Rachel Ivgi
Currently when creating a new vif in monitor mode the driver doesn't allocate a specific station. This causes that in the situation that tx traffic is injected, the tx queues are not scheduled, with the result of a TFD queue hang. Fix that by allocating a station and ensuring its tx queues are scheduled.

2015-12-20iwlwifi: mvm: refactor the way fw_key_table is handledLuca Coelho
Instead of keeping the fw_key_table bits set when the keys are removed (i.e. in D3 entry or HW_RESTART flows), clear them and set them again only when the keys have been successfully re-added. This makes the bitmask more closely tied to the actual firmware programming. Signed-off-by: Luca Coelho <luciano.coelho@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com>

2015-12-13iwlwifi: mvm: close the SP if we send fewer frames than expected in SPEmmanuel Grumbach
When we have holes in the BA window, there might be frames that have been ACKed between the read and the right pointers. This means that these frames won't be scheduled again by the SCD and the firwmare won't see them. This invalidates the number of frames we tell the firmware to send. When we detect this case, tell mac80211 to close the SP and to send an EOSP so that the firmware can be in sync. Signed-off-by: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com>
2015-12-13iwlwifi: block the queues when we send ADD_STA for uAPSDEmmanuel Grumbach
We send an ADD_STA to instruct the firmware to release frames despite the peer being in PS. Since the ADD_STA command and the Tx frame that comes immediately afterwards can be reordered by the DMA engine, we need to block the Tx queues until the firmware replies with the ADD_STA response.

2015-12-13iwlwifi: mvm: set default new STA as non-aggregatedLiad Kaufman
When sending the first ADD_STA HCMD for a STA, the %add_modify field indicates an addition of a STA and not a modification of one. In such a case, all fields of the HCMD are used to initialize the corresponding fields in the FW, regardless of what bits are set in %modify_mask. Set the %tid_disable_tx field to mvm_sta->tid_disable_agg in iwl_mvm_sta_send_to_fw(). If the STA is only updated this will have no effect, but if it is added - it will make sure the STA starts with the correct queues - if any - configured as non-aggregated by default (until told otherwise).
