2015-06-02mwifiex: device dump support via devcoredump frameworkAmitkumar Karwar1-0/+90
Currently device dump generated in the driver is retrieved using ethtool set/get dump commands. We will get rid of ethtool approach and use devcoredump framework. Device dump can be trigger by cat /debugfs/mwifiex/mlanX/device_dump and when the dump operation is completed, data can be read by cat /sys/class/devcoredump/devcdX/data We have prepared following script to split device dump data into multiple files.

2015-03-30cfg80211: pass name_assign_type to rdev_add_virtual_intf()Tom Gundersen1-3/+3
This will expose in /sys whether the ifname of a device is set by userspace or generated by the kernel. The latter kind (wlanX, etc) is not deterministic, so userspace needs to rename these devices to names that are guaranteed to stay the same between reboots. The former, however should never be renamed, so userspace needs to be able to reliably tell the difference.

2015-03-30mwifiex: Fix issue in the SDIO reset path of mwifiex.Maithili Hinge1-3/+0
SDIO reset was not happening properly on mwifiex as cancel_work_sync in mwifiex_sdio_remove used to kill the calling work function itself. Due to this, the interface was not getting removed and card was not getting added again.

2015-03-16mwifiex: add SDIO rx single port aggregationZhaoyang Liu1-1/+9
This patch brings in support for SDIO single port rx aggregation to mwifiex. Maximum read size support by SDIO cmd53 is 64K. Based on multi port aggregation which is already part of mwifiex, idea here is multiple packets received in FW can be aggregated into single buffer. A separate upload type is defined for such packet aggregated to single port. Packets from this single buffer are later deaggregated into individual packets. This way, driver can receive more packets each time through single SDIO cmd53; thereby reducing no of times MMC bus is accessed. SDIO SP aggregation support is advertised by FW during load time and driver would get FW block size in command response of HostCmd_CMD_SDIO_SP_RX_AGGR_CFG.

2015-02-27mwifiex: more_task flag for main_processShengzhen Li1-7/+9
This patch handles a corner case where TX packet would remain in driver queue till next packet comes in. Here is sequence: 1. TX packet is queued via hard_start_xmit and main_work is queued 2. SDIO interrupt comes in which directly call mwifiex_main_process. This starts executing main superloop. 3. Now work from step1 is scheduled but at first check itself it sees mwifiex_processing is set and exits. 4. Now if superloop from step2 has passed TX processing part of superloop this packet would remain in queue until next packet/command/SDIO interrupt arrives and queues main_work. This patch fixes this corner case by defining more_task flag which is set when mwifiex_processing is found to be true. At end of superloop we again check if more_task flag is set and if set, execute superloop again.

This patch adds auto TDLS support to mwifiex. Auto TDLS functionality works as follows: 1. Whenever userspace application has triggered TDLS connection with any peer, driver would store this peer mac address details in its database. 2. After this driver whenever driver receives packet on direct link, it would store rssi and timestamp in peer information. 3. Whenever a packet is to be transmitted to non-AP peer in station mode, driver would check if TDLS link can be established by looking at peer RSSI information. Driver would initiate TDLS setup in such cases. 4. Periodic timer is used for updating peer information. 5. Auto TDLS peer list & timer are cleared during disconnection or driver unload.

2014-11-12mwifiex: fix out of memory issue observed for USB chipsetsAmitkumar Karwar1-0/+2
On some platforms, system goes out of memory during heavy Rx traffic with our USB chipsets. In case of SDIO/PCIe, after receiving 50 packets in Rx queue we stop processing interrupts till packets pending fall below low threshold i.e 20. We don't have similar logic for USB, so if host platform is slow, we would hit a case where firmware keeps on pushing packets at high speed than driver/kernel can process. We will stop submitting URBs for Rx data when pending packet count reaches high threshold and restart them when enough packets are consumed to solve the problem.

2014-09-30mwifiex: fix soft lockup during iperf UDP RXAvinash Patil1-1/+2
A soft lockup was observed on ARM multicore platform while UDP RX iperf was running on station. Reason for this is delay_main_task was not taken into consideration while jumping to process_start. Now if delay_main_task is true, we would exit mwifiex_main_process instead of going to process_start again. This ensure other process is scheduled on this CPU and soft lockup is avoided.

2014-09-15mwifiex: add rx workqueue supportAvinash Patil1-0/+91
This patch adds RX work queue support to mwifiex. Packets received are queued to internal queue which are then processed by scheduling a work item for RX process. RX work is enabled only on SMP systems.

2014-09-15mwifiex: remove low priority scan handlingAmitkumar Karwar1-95/+1
We have a logic in driver to delay or abort low priority scan to serve Tx traffic effectively. With scan channel gap support added, firmware now allows driver to send Tx data while scan operation is in progress. Hence low priority scan handling in driver is not required now. This patch removes related code.

2014-09-15mwifiex: process TX even when scan is ongoingAvinash Patil1-3/+5
With channel scan gap, FW comes back to connected channel after each single channel scan. So we can safely transfer data to FW during scan. FW would send this data once on connected channel.
