qtnfmac: drop unnecessary TLVs from scan command

2020-02-12T16:16:48Z

Most part of scan command data is always present, so no need to keep it in TLV. Simplify scan command processing moving most part of its parameters into a fixed part of qlink_cmd_scan message. Use fixed dwell time values for normal scan when device is not connected, and allow wireless card decide on dwell times by itself if it's operating as a STA and is connected. When connected, card can select dwell times dynamically based on traffic conditions to get best results. Signed-off-by: Igor Mitsyanko Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo

qtnfmac: cleanup alignment in firmware communication protocol

2020-02-12T16:16:46Z

Make sure that all elements in QLINK protocol message are aligned to 4 bytes. For this purpose add necessary amount of padding bytes to each message. Besides, add padding for non-aligned variable length fields, e.g. SSID, so that the first byte of the next variable length element is aligned. to 4 bytes. Finally, introduce TLV parsing helpers to reduce boilerplate TLV parsing code. Signed-off-by: Igor Mitsyanko Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo

qtnfmac: allow each MAC to specify its own regulatory rules

2019-04-04T09:57:28Z

Currently driver uses the same regulatory rules to register all wiphy instances. This is not logically correct since each wiphy may have different capabilities (different supported bands, EIRP etc). Allow firmware to pass regulatory rules for each MAC separately. Signed-off-by: Igor Mitsyanko Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo

qtnfmac: pass complete channel info in regulatory notifier

2019-04-04T09:57:26Z

Currently only a portion of per-channel information is passed to firmware. Extend logic to pass all useful per-channel data. Signed-off-by: Igor Mitsyanko Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo

qtnfmac: convert to SPDX license identifiers

2019-02-01T12:12:02Z

Replace textual license with SPDX-License-Identifier. Add an SPDX-License-Identifier for the Makefile. Signed-off-by: Sergey Matyukevich Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo

qtnfmac: switch to 32bit values for RTS/FRAG thresholds

2019-02-01T12:11:57Z

Host wireless stack uses u32 type for RTS/FRAG threshold values. Switch to u32 in driver: pass u32 values to firmware and let firmware properly adapt these values according to its internal representation. Signed-off-by: Sergey Matyukevich Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo

qtnfmac: add support for scan flush

2018-10-05T11:01:33Z

Notify firmware to flush cache before scanning when needed. Signed-off-by: Sergey Matyukevich Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo

qtnfmac: support MAC address based access control

2018-01-09T12:11:23Z

This allows a running AP to blacklist STAs by their MAC addresses respecting the configured policy (either accept or deny unless listed). It can be setup on .start_ap or with .set_mac_acl commands. Signed-off-by: Vasily Ulyanov Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo

qtnfmac: modify GET_STA_STATS cmd format for back/forward compatibility

2018-01-09T12:11:22Z

A set of per-STA statistics can potentially change quite often. To ensure backwards and forward compatibility, modify GET_STA_STATS command format: - introduce two TLV types - first TLV is a variable-sized bitmap of statistics values that are filled by firmware - second TLV is a structure with statistics itself Only values specified in first TLV are valid.

qtnfmac: pass channel definition to WiFi card on START_AP command

2017-10-13T09:59:30Z

Introduce "channel definition" TLV containing full channel description (center frequence for both segments + BW) and pass it to wireless card in a payload to START_AP command. Signed-off-by: Igor Mitsyanko Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo
