When a firmware error occurs, capture the last 32 commands
(which are still in memory) in the error dump debugfs file.

The Rx FIFO includes valuable data - dump it when the FW
asserts. Also - free the SRAM and Rx FIFO when we create
the file, and don't collect new SRAM / Rx FIFO if the
previous file hasn't been collected through debugfs yet.
Also - add a comment to saying that the ASSERT output should
not be modified since we have automatic scripts that monitor
this output.

When the firmware asserts, the driver will dump the firmware
state to an internal buffer. This buffer is kept aside until
it is dumped through debugfs. Once an external application
fetched the data, the buffer is freed and a new buffer can
be allocated in case another assert occurs.
A udev event is sent to trigger an external application.
A simple rule like:
DRIVER=="iwlwifi", ACTION=="change", RUN+="/sbin/dump_sram.sh"
can fetch the data from debugfs.
Here is my dump_sram.sh:
phyname=$(basename ${DEVPATH})
date=$(date +%F_%H_%M)
filename=/var/log/iwl-sram-${phyname}-${date}.bin
cat /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/${phyname}/iwlwifi/iwlmvm/fw_error_dump > ${filename}
The current SRAM size is 80KB so, currently:
$ ls -lh iwl-sram-phy0-2014-03-16_13_14.bin
-rw-r--r-- 1 emmanuel emmanuel 81K Mar 16 13:15 iwl-sram-phy0-2014-03-16_13_14.bin
and after compression:
$ ls -lh iwl-sram-phy0-2014-03-16_13_14.bin.xz
-rw-r--r-- 1 emmanuel emmanuel 13K Mar 16 13:15 iwl-sram-phy0-2014-03-16_13_14.bin.xz
