wifi: ath12k: Prevent multicast duplication for dynamic VLAN
Since dynamic VLAN traffic is software encrypted and encapsulated,
mac80211 handles the duplication on each link for MLO dynamic VLAN
multicast.
Currently in ath12k_mac_op_tx(), all multicast frames are duplicated
and are assigned a mcbc_gsn. This is causing dynamic VLAN multicast
traffic to be dropped in hardware.
Prevent dynamic VLAN multicast traffic from being duplicated again in
the driver. Check if incoming packet is a dynamic VLAN packet and
avoid defaulting to multicast conditional.
wifi: ath12k: Enable AST index based address search in Station Mode
Currently, TCL performs the TX address search for each entry during
transmission, which may lead to packet delays.
To mitigate this issue, enable AST index-based address search during
transmission in station mode. This AST index-based search is not
enabled in AP mode due to the complexity involved in fetching peer
information.
Implement changes to retrieve the offset of ast_idx/ast_hash values
from the PEER_MAP3 event, update the vdev search type to ADDRX, and
enable AST lookup in the bank configuration.

The PPDU ID is used in cycles, the difference between the PPDU IDs

dest PPDU ID is greater than 20000, it is considered a wrap-around

forcibly set to dest PPDU ID to avoid backpressure issue.

wifi: ath12k: use WMI_VDEV_SET_TPC_POWER_CMDID when EXT_TPC_REG_SUPPORT for 6 GHz
When station is connected to a 6 GHz AP, there are 2 ways to configure the
power limit to firmware. The first way is to send 2 WMI commands
WMI_PDEV_PARAM_TXPOWER_LIMIT2G/WMI_PDEV_PARAM_TXPOWER_LIMIT5G to firmware,
the second way is to send WMI_VDEV_SET_TPC_POWER_CMDID to firmware which
includes more parameters for power control.
When firmware advertises WMI_TLV_SERVICE_EXT_TPC_REG_SUPPORT, it supports
WMI_VDEV_SET_TPC_POWER_CMDID, ath12k uses it to send more parameters to
firmware. As chanctx is needed to extract necessary info for this command,
save it beforehand in ath12k_mac_op_assign_vif_chanctx().
wifi: ath12k: add handler for WMI_VDEV_SET_TPC_POWER_CMDID

The Transmit Power Envelope element conveys the local maximum transmit
power for various transmission bandwidths, this element is present in

wifi: ath12k: save power spectral density(PSD) of regulatory rule
Currently the power spectral density (PSD) report from firmware is ignored.
Since it is needed by cfg80211, report it in struct ieee80211_reg_rule such
that cfg80211 can use it.
wifi: ath12k: update regulatory rules when interface added
There are two power types for 6 GHz regulatory, one is AP, another is
client. The client power type is used for station interface, and AP
power type is used for AP/mesh point interface.
When firmware boots up, WMI_REG_CHAN_LIST_CC_EXT_EVENTID is sent from
firmware at an early stage, the interface mode is not decided at this
point, then ath12k select reg rules of AP type as default.
After interface created, ath12k needs to update reg rules to the exact
power type matching the interface type.
Currently we only build regdomain when channel list event is received.
That event is received when driver boots or when a new country code is
sent to firmware. At either time we may have no information about
interface mode or AP's power type, consequently WMI_REG_INDOOR_AP is
selected. In upcoming patches we will rebuild regdomain once those
information is available. For that purpose reg info has to be
stored/refreshed each time a new channel list event is received.
The stored reg info would be freed in ath12k_reg_free() when it is not
needed.
The reg info is allocated in ath12k_reg_chan_list_event() but validated
in ath12k_reg_handle_chan_list(). Currently this is good since reg info
would be freed regardless of validation results. However in an upcoming
patch the reg info might need to be stored for later use if the result
is good. Since we can not tell the result from return value of
ath12k_reg_handle_chan_list(), we need to move validation out of it.
Add a new helper ath12k_reg_validate_reg_info() and call it in
ath12k_reg_chan_list_event(), based on the result we can choose to store
or free it in the following patch.
wifi: ath12k: add support to select 6 GHz regulatory type
For 6 GHz band, firmware offers 3 types of regulatory rules for AP
mode and 6 for station mode in WMI_REG_CHAN_LIST_CC_EXT_EVENTID event.
In ath12k_reg_build_regd() current code by default chooses
WMI_REG_INDOOR_AP type rules from AP mode reg list to build regdomain,
regardless of the interface mode and power type, hence is not correct.
Pass interface mode (wmi_vdev_type) and AP power type
(ieee80211_ap_reg_power) as new arguments to ath12k_reg_build_regd()
such that we can choose correct rules based on them. Currently
ath12k_reg_build_regd() is called only by ath12k_reg_chan_list_event()
when driver boots, at that time these two arguments are not determined
yet, hence by default pass WMI_VDEV_TYPE_UNSPEC and
IEEE80211_REG_UNSET_AP, this results in WMI_REG_INDOOR_AP being chosen
at last. In upcoming patches the rules would be updated when these two
arguments could be determined.
Currently we pass intersect flag to tell ath12k_reg_build_regd() whether
regulatory rulse are intersected. This flag is determined in
ath12k_reg_handle_chan_list() and has no other users.
Move related logic into ath12k_reg_build_regd() to make code clear. Also
relocate ath12k_reg_is_world_alpha() to avoid forward declaration, and
refine it for code simplicity.
ath12k_reg_chan_list_event() is doing quite some work: allocate/free
reg_info, parse chan list event and store required info in reg_info,
process reg_info, build regd and queue work item for later processing
etc, which makes it hard to read.
Refactor this function:
1. extract reg_info processing and regd building into a new helper
ath12k_reg_handle_chan_list().
2. extract reg_info free into a new helper ath12k_reg_reset_reg_info().
Note the refactor also benefit some upcoming patches where these helpers
are getting called.
Also relocate these two helpers and the existing
ath12k_reg_is_world_alpha() to reg.c to reflect what they are doing.
And update fw to firmware while relocating.

Add the missing memory barrier to make sure that the REO dest ring

reported errors like:
ath11k_pci 0006:01:00.0: msdu_done bit in attention is not set
which based on a quick look at the driver seemed to indicate some kind
of ring-buffer corruption.
Miaoqing Pan tracked it down to the host seeing the updated destination
ring head pointer before the updated descriptor, and the error handling
for that in turn leaves the ring buffer in an inconsistent state.
Add the missing memory barrier to make sure that the descriptor is read
after the head pointer to address the root cause of the corruption while
fixing up the error handling in case there are ever any (ordering) bugs
on the device side.
Note that the READ_ONCE() are only needed to avoid compiler mischief in
case the ring-buffer helpers are ever inlined.
Firmware requests 2 segments at first. The first segment is of 6799360
whose allocation fails due to dma remapping not available. The success
is returned to firmware. Then firmware asks for 22 smaller segments
instead of 2 big ones. Those get allocated successfully. At suspend/
hibernation time, these segments aren't freed as they will be reused
by firmware after resuming.
After resuming, the firmware asks for the 2 segments again with the
first segment of 6799360 size. Since chunk->vaddr is not NULL, the
type and size are compared with the previous type and size to know if
it can be reused or not. Unfortunately, it is detected that it cannot
be reused and this first smaller segment is freed. Then we continue to
allocate 6799360 size memory which fails and ath11k_qmi_free_target_mem_chunk()
is called which frees the second smaller segment as well. Later success
is returned to firmware which asks for 22 smaller segments again. But
as we had freed 2 segments already, we'll allocate the first 2 new
smaller segments again and reuse the remaining 20. Hence 20 small
segments are being reused instead of 22.
Add skip logic when vaddr is set, but size/type don't match. Use the
same skip and success logic as used when dma_alloc_coherent() fails.
By skipping, the possibility of resume failure due to kernel failing to
allocate memory for QMI can be avoided.

Switching from devm_ioremap to the platform variant ends up calling
devm_request_mem_region, which reserves the memory region for the
various wmacs. Per board, there is only one wmac and after some fairly
thorough analysis, there are no overlapping memory regions between wmacs
and other devices on the ahb.
wifi: ath12k: Use scan link ID 15 for all scan operations
According to the code documentation in ath12k_mac_op_hw_scan(), "if no
links of an ML VIF are already active on the radio corresponding to the
given scan frequency, the scan link (link ID 15) should be used". This rule
should apply to non-ML interfaces as well to maintain uniformity across the
driver. However, currently, link 0 is selected as the scan link during
non-ML operations.
Update the code to use scan link ID 15 in all cases.
For scanning purposes, the driver can use link ID 15 (scan link). A future
change will make non-ML interfaces to select the scan link. In this
scenario, arvif->link_id will be used to retrieve the link configuration in
ath12k_mac_vdev_create(). However, link ID 15 is not recognized as a valid
link ID in the upper kernel, which will result in a failure to fetch
link_conf and subsequently cause the scan to fail.
To avoid this issue, ensure link_conf is fetched only when the link ID is
within the valid range. Since link_conf cannot be retrieved using the scan
link, use vif->addr as the Ethernet address for creating the scan vdev.
This address will serve as the source address (address 2) in the probe
request frames during scanning. Additionally, use the automatic Tx power
value for the vdev. As this is a scan vdev, these values do not affect the
scan functionality.
Note that vif->addr will only be taken when a valid link_conf can not be
fetched. Otherwise, link_conf's address will be taken as address 2.

To support 36-bit DMA, configure chip proprietary bit via PCI config API
or chip DBI interface. However, the PCI device mmap isn't set yet and
the DBI is also inaccessible via mmap, so only if the bit can be accessible
via PCI config API, chip can support 36-bit DMA. Otherwise, fallback to
32-bit DMA.

wifi: iwlwifi: rename ctx-info-gen3 to ctx-info-v2
Context info was introduced in 22000, and was significantly changed in
ax210. The new version of context info was called 'gen3',
probably because in 22000, the gen2 transport was added.
But this name is just wrong:
- if 'gen' enumerates transports, there was not a gen3 transport, just a
few modifications to gen1/2 transports needed for ax210.
- if 'gen' enumerates devices, then we can just use the device names.
Also, context info will soon become a lib, agnostic of the transport
generations.
Simply replace 'gen3' with 'v2'.

wifi: iwlwifi: use normal versioning convention for iwl_tx_cmd
We have iwl_tx_cmd for devices older than 22000, iwl_tx_cmd_gen2 for
22000 devices, and iwl_tx_cmd_gen3 ax210 and up.
But the convention for all other APIs is to have the latest version
without any prefix and the older ones - with a _vX prefix,
where X is the highest version that this struct support.
The term 'gen' was introduced as the name of the (back then) new
transport, and should not be used as a device name (for that we have the
actual names: 22000, ax210, etc.)
Now as a new transport, called 'gen3', is going to be written and it can
be confused with this API.
Move iwl_tx_cmd to use the regular versioning convention.
We don't need the CORES() match nor jacket (which really doesn't
even make sense to match to the RF anyway), and since the subdevice
masks we care about are contiguous, we can encode them as highest
and lowest bit set (automatically.) By encoding whether to match or
not as separate flags and taking advantage of the limited range of
the RF type, step and ID we can reduce the amount of memory needed
for the table, while also making the logic (apart perhaps from the
subdevice mask) easier to understand.
This reduces the size of the module by about 1.5KiB on x86-64.
