A recently added feature to the firmware enables the driver to retrieve
firmware logs via the host bus (SDIO or SPI).
There are two modes of operation:
1. On-demand: The FW collects its log in an internal ring buffer. This
buffer can later be read, for example, upon recovery.
2. Continuous: The FW pushes the FW logs as special packets in the RX
path.
Reading the internal ring buffer does not involve the FW. Thus, as long
as the HW is not in ELP, it should be possible to read the logs, even if
the FW crashes.
A sysfs binary file named "fwlog" was added to support this feature,
letting a monitor process read the FW messages. The log is transferred
from the FW only when available, so the reading process might block.

wl12xx supports the "rx streaming" feature:
When in ps mode, and @timeout msecs have been passed since
the last rx/tx, it issues trigger packets (QoS-null/PS-Poll packets,
according to the ac type) in const intervals (in order to reduce
the rx time).

Use the wiphy RTS and fragmentation thresholds for initializing the FW
when possible. This mitigates a bug where previously set values are
forgotten after interface down/up.
Add checks before settings these values to ensure they are valid. Use
default values when invalid thresholds are configured.
Update the default RTS threshold to the maximum value given by the

In AP mode we register for the MAX_TX_RETRY and INACTIVE_STA events.
Both are reported to the upper layers as a TX failure in the offending
stations.
In STA mode we register only for the MAX_TX_RETRY event. A TX failure is
interpreted as a loss of connection.
Support for IEEE80211_HW_REPORTS_TX_ACK_STATUS has been removed to avoid
the inherent race condition of a mac80211 TX failure counter in addition
to the FW counter.
This patch depends on "mac80211: allow low level driver to report packet
loss"

New acx command that sets: Rx fifo enable reduced bus transactions
in RX path. Tx bus transactions padding to SDIO block size that
improve preference in Tx and essential for working with SDIO HS (48Mhz).
The max SDIO block size is 256 when working with Tx bus transactions
padding to SDIO block.
Add new ops to SDIO & SPI that handles the win size change in case of
transactions padding (relevant only for SDIO).

minor changes in comments; use "aligned_len" in one calculation

If a sta starts transmitting immediately after authentication, sometimes
the FW deauthenticates it. Fix this by marking the sta "in-connection"
in FW before sending the autentication response.
The "in-connection" entry is automatically removed when connection

Rework cmd and acx interfaces, it was just too confusing earlier. Now
all commands need to contain all the needed headers, either just cmd
headers or both cmd and acx headers. This accomplish to remove the
extra copy done for each command. The interfaces are now properly
documented as well.
Also try to make all commands safe for DMA transfers. I might have missed
some, but most of them should be fixed now.

wl12xx is a driver for TI wl1251 802.11 chipset designed for embedded
devices, supporting both SDIO and SPI busses. Currently the driver
supports only SPI. Adding support 1253 (the 5 GHz version) should be
relatively easy. More information here:
