Some special copy engines delivers messages directly to HTT by
bypassing HTC layer. Hence exporting tx_completion and rx_handler
for delivering the data to HTT layer.

ath10k driver is using dma_pool_alloc per packet and dma_pool_free
in coresponding at Tx completion.
Use of pre-allocated DMA buffer in Tx will improve saving CPU resource
by 5% while it consumes about 56KB memory more as trade off.

In a noisy environment, when multiple interfaces are created,
the management tx descriptors are fully occupied by the probe
responses from all the interfaces. This prevents a new station
from a successful association.
Fix this by limiting the probe responses when the specified
threshold limit is reached.

This patch enables raw Rx/Tx encap mode to support software based
crypto engine. This patch introduces a new module param 'cryptmode'.
cryptmode:
0: Use hardware crypto engine globally with native Wi-Fi mode TX/RX
encapsulation to the firmware. This is the default mode.
1: Use sofware crypto engine globally with raw mode TX/RX
encapsulation to the firmware.
Known limitation:
A-MSDU must be disabled for RAW Tx encap mode to perform well when
heavy traffic is applied.
Testing: (by Michal Kazior <michal.kazior@tieto.com>)

Note:
- only open network tested for RAW vs nwifi performance comparison
- killer1525 (qca6174 hw2.2) is 2x2 device (hence max 866mbps)
- used iperf
- OTA, devices a few cm apart from each other, no shielding
- tcpX/udpX, X - means number of threads used
Overview:
- relative Tx performance drop is seen but is within reasonable and
expected threshold (A-MSDU must be disabled with RAW Tx)

HTT_H2T_MSG_TYPE_MGMT_TX msg in 10.4 firmware carries additional
4 byte in htt_mgmt_tx_desc where it tells to firmware that at what
rate mgmt frame has to go out in the air. It's an optional parameter,
setting this field to zero will force firmware to choose auto rate
and send the frame out.
Those 4 byte info is missed out in the current code and 10.4 firmware
ended up reading some junk in those 4 byte and sometime malfunctioning.
Fix it by adding 4 byte in struct htt_mgmt_tx_desc. Non 10.4 firmware
will not process those four byte. So, adding 4 byte at the end of
struct htt_mgmt_tx_desc will not create any impact on other chipset.

Since QCA99X0 uses fragmentation descriptor differently from
other ones on tx path, we need to handle it separately.
QCA99X0 is using 48 bits for address and 16 bits for length
out of 2 dword and each values have to be programmed by frag
desc base addr + msdu id, so that hardware can retrieve
corresponding frag data.

Pre qca99X0 chipsets follows the model where dynamically allocate
memory for frag desc on getting new skb for TX. But, this is not
going to be the case in qca99X0. It expects frag desc memory to be
allocated at boot time and let the driver to reuse allocated memory
after every TX completion. So there won't be any dynamic frag memory
memory allocation in qca99X0 during data transmission.
qca99X0 hardware doesn't need fragment desc address to be programmed
in msdu descriptor for every data transaction. It needs to know only
starting address of fragment descriptor at the time of the boot.
During data transmission, qca99X0 hardware can retrieve corresponding
frag addr by adding programmed frag desc base addr + msdu id.
Allocate continuous fragment descriptor memory (same size as number of
descriptor) at the time of target initialization and configure allocated
dma address to the target via HTT_H2T_MSG_TYPE_FRAG_DESC_BANK_CFG.
How this is allocated continuous memory is going to be used is not
covered in this patch. It just allocates memory and hand over to firmware.
If we don't do it at init time, qca99X0 will stall when firmware tries
to do TX.

Target to host HTT messages are conflicting between 10.x and other
firmware revisions. By maintaining separate HTT T2H tables for each
firmware revisions (main, 10x and tlv) similar to WMI abstraction,
solves the conflicts. Add ATH10K_FW_IE_HTT_OP_VERSION so that the firmware can
advertise the HTT interface to ath10k.
This fix is needed to get management frames over HTT (ie.
ATH10K_FW_FEATURE_HAS_WMI_MGMT_TX disabled) working with 10.2.4.48-2 firmware.
Otherwise there will be unknown htt events and nothing works:
[30087.438343] ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: htt event (19) not handled
[30087.448691] ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: htt event (19) not handled
[30149.032974] ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: htt event (19) not handled
If the firmware does not have ATH10K_FW_IE_HTT_OP_VERSION use the main HTT
interface. That way old firmware images will still work.

New firmware and firmware (qca6174 hw3.0+ and fw
266+) are capable of full aggregation rx
reordering. If it's enabled then Rx is handled via
a new, separate htt event.
The rx ring behaviour is changed a little to
support the new rx scheme. These changes shouldn't

New firmware revisions don't need peer creation
when doing offchannel tx. Earlier revisions would
queue and never release frames without a peer.
This prevent new firmware revisions from stopping
replenishing wmi-htc tx credits and improves

silently fail.

It was possible to call hif_stop() 2 times through
ath10k_htc_connect_init() timeout failpath which
could lead to double free_irq() kernel splat for
multiple MSI interrupt case.
Re-order init sequence to avoid this problem. The
HTC stop shouldn't stop HIF implicitly since it
doesn't implicitly start it. Since the re-ordering
required some functions to be split/removed/renamed
rename a few functions to make more sense while at
it.

Going through full htc tx path for htt tx is a
waste of resources. By skipping it it's possible
to easily submit scatter-gather to the pci hif for
reduced host cpu load and improved performance.
The new approach uses dma pool to store the
following metadata for each tx request:
* msdu fragment list
* htc header
* htt tx command
The htt tx command contains a msdu prefetch.
Instead of copying it original mapped msdu address
is used to submit a second scatter-gather item to
hif to make a complete htt tx command.
The htt tx command itself hands over dma mapped
pointers to msdus and completion of the command
itself doesn't mean the frame has been sent and
can be unmapped/freed. This is why htc tx
completion is skipped for htt tx as all tx related
resources are freed upon htt tx completion
indication event (which also implicitly means htt
tx command itself was completed).
Since now each htt tx request effectively consists
of 2 copy engine items CE_HTT_H2T_MSG_SRC_NENTRIES
is updated to allow maximum of
TARGET_10X_NUM_MSDU_DESC msdus being queued. This
keeps the tx path resource management simple.

Here's a new mac80211 driver for Qualcomm Atheros 802.11ac QCA98xx devices.
A major difference from ath9k is that there's now a firmware and
that's why we had to implement a new driver.
The wiki page for the driver is:
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/ath10k
The driver has had many authors, they are listed here alphabetically:
