Kalle Valo says: ==================== wireless-next patches for v6.1 Few stack changes and lots of driver changes in this round. brcmfmac has more activity as usual and it gets new hardware support. ath11k improves WCN6750 support and also other smaller features. And of course changes all over. Note: in early September wireless tree was merged to wireless-next to avoid some conflicts with mac80211 patches, this shouldn't cause any problems but wanted to mention anyway. Major changes: mac80211 - refactoring and preparation for Wi-Fi 7 Multi-Link Operation (MLO) feature continues brcmfmac - support CYW43439 SDIO chipset - support BCM4378 on Apple platforms - support CYW89459 PCIe chipset rtw89 - more work to get rtw8852c supported - P2P support - support for enabling and disabling MSDU aggregation via nl80211 mt76 - tx status reporting improvements ath11k - cold boot calibration support on WCN6750 - Target Wake Time (TWT) debugfs support for STA interface - support to connect to a non-transmit MBSSID AP profile - enable remain-on-channel support on WCN6750 - implement SRAM dump debugfs interface - enable threaded NAPI on all hardware - WoW support for WCN6750 - support to provide transmit power from firmware via nl80211 - support to get power save duration for each client - spectral scan support for 160 MHz wcn36xx - add SNR from a received frame as a source of system entropy * tag 'wireless-next-2022-09-30' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/wireless/wireless-next: (231 commits) wifi: rtl8xxxu: Improve rtl8xxxu_queue_select wifi: rtl8xxxu: Fix AIFS written to REG_EDCA_*_PARAM wifi: rtl8xxxu: gen2: Enable 40 MHz channel width wifi: rtw89: 8852b: configure DLE mem wifi: rtw89: check DLE FIFO size with reserved size wifi: rtw89: mac: correct register of report IMR wifi: rtw89: pci: set power cut closed for 8852be wifi: rtw89: pci: add to do PCI auto calibration wifi: rtw89: 8852b: implement chip_ops::{enable,disable}_bb_rf wifi: rtw89: add DMA busy checking bits to chip info wifi: rtw89: mac: define DMA channel mask to avoid unsupported channels wifi: rtw89: pci: mask out unsupported TX channels iwlegacy: Replace zero-length arrays with DECLARE_FLEX_ARRAY() helper ipw2x00: Replace zero-length array with DECLARE_FLEX_ARRAY() helper wifi: iwlwifi: Track scan_cmd allocation size explicitly brcmfmac: Remove the call to "dtim_assoc" IOVAR brcmfmac: increase dcmd maximum buffer size brcmfmac: Support 89459 pcie brcmfmac: increase default max WOWL patterns to 16 cw1200: fix incorrect check to determine if no element is found in list ... ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220930150413.A7984C433D6@smtp.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski

wifi: rtl8xxxu: Improve rtl8xxxu_queue_select

2022-09-29T06:18:42Z

Remove the unused ieee80211_hw* parameter, and pass ieee80211_hdr* instead of relying on skb->data having the right value at the time the function is called. This doesn't change the functionality at all.

wifi: rtl8xxxu: Fix AIFS written to REG_EDCA_*_PARAM

2022-09-29T06:18:41Z

ieee80211_tx_queue_params.aifs is not supposed to be written directly to the REG_EDCA_*_PARAM registers. Instead process it like the vendor drivers do. It's kinda hacky but it works. This change boosts the download speed and makes it more stable. Tested with RTL8188FU but all the other supported chips should also benefit.

wifi: rtl8xxxu: gen2: Enable 40 MHz channel width

2022-09-29T06:18:41Z

The module parameter ht40_2g was supposed to enable 40 MHz operation, but it didn't. Tell the firmware about the channel width when updating the rate mask. This makes it work with my gen 2 chip RTL8188FU. I'm not sure if anything needs to be done for the gen 1 chips, if 40 MHz channel width already works or not. They update the rate mask with a different structure which doesn't have a field for the channel width. Also set the channel width correctly for sta_statistics.

net: drop the weight argument from netif_napi_add

2022-09-29T01:57:14Z

We tell driver developers to always pass NAPI_POLL_WEIGHT as the weight to netif_napi_add(). This may be confusing to newcomers, drop the weight argument, those who really need to tweak the weight can use netif_napi_add_weight().
