Michal Kazior fc36e3ffcd ath10k: fix device initialization routine
Hardware CUS232 version 2 has some issues with cold
reset that lead to Data Bus Errors or system hangs
in some cases. It's safer to use warm reset when
possible as it shouldn't trigger the
aforementioned issues.

Prefer warm reset over cold reset. However since
warm reset doesn't work after FW crash make sure to
fallback to cold reset when booting up the HW.

Bartosz Markowski 0e759f363e ath10k: track number of existing peers
To not exceed number of allowed clients (AP mode), make sure to
check how many of them are already on the peers list.

10.X firmware support up to 127 peers, non-AP centric firmwares 16.

Michal Kazior e539887b15 ath10k: don't consume other's shared interrupts
ath10k assumed all interrupts were directed to it.
This isn't the case for legacy shared interrupts.
ath10k consumed interrupts for other devices.

Check device irq status and return IRQ_NONE when
appropriate.

Michal Kazior 0d1a28f241 ath10k: fix RX performance when using AP 10.X FW
Due to oversight AP 10.X support was merged with
Ethernet RX decap mode.

Only Native Wifi RX decap mode guarantees IP
header is properly aligned and avoids sk_buff data
realignment (which is very expensive
performance-wise) in mac80211.

Kalle Valo 1a222435a1 ath10k: implement firmware IE container support
Firmware IE containers can dynamically provide various information what
firmware supports. Also it can embed more than one image so updating firmware
is easy, user just needs to update one file in /lib/firmware/.

The firmware API 2 or higher will use the IE container format, the current API
1 will not use the new format but it still is supported for some time. FW API 2
files are named as firmware-2.bin (which contains both firmware and otp images)
and API 1 files are firmware.bin and otp.bin.

Bartosz Markowski ec6a73f00e ath10k: add TARGET values for 10.x firmware
Introduce all TARGET specific values for 10.x firmware.
Some of them are common for both firmwares we will support,
but to avoid confusion, define everything with prefix 10X_.

Bartosz Markowski 08ba7b6b6f ath10k: drop the fw versioning sanity check
It was corrupted and leading to compilation warning
core.c: In function 'ath10k_check_fw_version':
core.c:79: warning: comparison is always true due to limited range of data type

Since we are going to support new FW track in the driver,
the sanity check for fw version number would be an overkill
then. This is just for information purposes anyway.

Michal Kazior 4d316c79a5 ath10k: align RX frames properly
Ethernet-like decapping mode leaves IP protocol
frame not aligned to 4-byte boundaries. This leads
to re-aligning in mac80211 which in turn leads to
poor CPU cache behaviour on some machines.

Since HW doesn't allow to change payload offset
properly the solution is to force HW to decap in
Native Wifi mode which always has 24-bytes long
802.11 header (even for QoS frames). This means IP
frame is properly aligned in this decap mode.

Kalle Valo e01ae68c5d ath10k: check chip id from the soc register during probe
ath10k doesn't support qca988x hw1.0 boards anymore. Unfortunately
the PCI id is the same in hw1.0 and hw2.0 so ath10k tries to use
hw1.0 boards anyway. But without hw1.0 workarounds in place
ath10k just crashes horribly.

To avoid using hw1.0 boards at all add a chip id detection
and fail the probe if hw1.0 is detected:

[ 5265.786408] ath10k: ERROR: qca988x hw1.0 is not supported
[ 5265.786497] ath10k: Unsupported chip id 0x043200ff
[ 5265.786574] ath10k: could not register driver core (-95)
[ 5265.793191] ath10k_pci: probe of 0000:02:00.0 failed with error -95

Also add a warning if there's an unknown chip id but continue
the boot process normally anyway.

Michal Kazior 961d4c3896 ath10k: add support for HTT 3.0
New firmware comes with new HTT protocol version.
In 3.0 the separate mgmt tx command has been
removed. All traffic is to be pushed through data
tx (tx_frm) command with a twist - FW seems to not
be able (yet?) to access tx fragment table so for
manamgement frames frame pointer is passed
directly.

Kalle Valo 5e3dd157d7 ath10k: mac80211 driver for Qualcomm Atheros 802.11ac CQA98xx devices
Here's a new mac80211 driver for Qualcomm Atheros 802.11ac QCA98xx devices.
A major difference from ath9k is that there's now a firmware and
that's why we had to implement a new driver.

The wiki page for the driver is:

http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/ath10k

The driver has had many authors, they are listed here alphabetically:
