2015-03-01iwlwifi: mvm: rs: avoid ss_force from being reset after tx idleEyal Shapira1-3/+3
ss_force is a debugging option to force a certain single stream tx mode. It's not useful if it gets reset after tx idle. Fix that. While at it also make sure any code touching ss_force will only get compiled if debugfs support is configured.

2015-03-01iwlwifi: mvm: rs: adapt rate matching to new STBC/BFEREyal Shapira1-0/+1
Once the FW supports autonomous decision between STBC/BFER/SISO we no longer set the STBC bit and ANT_AB in the rate table. However the FW rate in the tx response will have the STBC or BFER bit set and the antennas set to ANT_AB in case these were chosen by it. This will cause us to discard any such response as unmatching the current LQ table and thus break the rs search cycle completely. Fix this by relaxing the rate matching in case we're working with the new API and STBC/BFER are used.

2015-02-01iwlwifi: mvm: add beamformer supportEyal Shapira1-1/+3
VHT Beamformer (BFER) will be used if the peer supports it and there's a benefit to use it vs. STBC or SISO. The driver now tells the FW whether BFER and/or STBC are allowed but the FW will make the decision to use either or stick to SISO on its own. BFER is limited to a single remote peer. The driver takes care of ensuring this to the FW and prioritizes with which peer BFER will be used.

In most cases there was no side effect as max_rate_idx was set to -1 but in certain cases like P2P it got set to an actual rate idx which would limit the maximum rate in HT/VHT by mistake. max_rate_idx should be replaced by the masks fields but for now remove it.

2014-04-13iwlwifi: mvm: rs: reinit rs if no tx for a long timeEyal Shapira1-0/+1
After being idle for a long time (>5sec) the rs statistics will be stale so we prefer to reset rs and start from legacy rates again. This gives better results when the attenuation increased signficantly (e.g. we got further from the AP) and after a while we start Tx Note that the first Tx after the idle period will still go out in the old modulation and rate but this seemed a simpler approach compared to adding a timer or modifying mac80211 for this. The negative impact is negligble as we'll recover quickly.

Rewrite the search cycle state machine to use a more data oriented approach where the different Tx columns (configs) limitations and next columns to search are reprsented in tables which are easy to change. This overhaul also includes several major fixes: 1. Prevent going back to a specific Tx column in a search cycle if it was already explored. 2. Avoid switching to a Tx column that doesn't have any chance if it performs perfectly to beat the current throughput we're getting.
