461ef382fd iwlwifi: add more debug info in error event dump
When sys assert happen, driver will dump the error table information
provided by uCode. There are more information available but is not being
display by the driver; adding program counter and last host command the
to log to help uCode debugging.

05d5752027 iwlwifi: clean up last_phy_res
The last_phy_res[100] variable is used in an odd
way. The first byte of it is used as a flag, and
the rest as the data. Thus, the array need only
be 61 bytes, since it is just the flag and a
struct iwl_rx_phy_res (which is 60 bytes).

Clean this up by splitting the variable into two:
last_phy_res and last_phy_res_valid, using correct
types for both (struct and bool). While doing all
this also move the variables to the _agn part of
the hw-specific union since they only apply to
A-MPDUs.

43a61261d7 iwlwifi: remove wrong key use check
Default WEP keys and regular keys are not allocated
from the same space in the firmware, so we shouldn't
use the same bits to indicate in use.

For default WEP keys, however, mac80211 won't allow
using the same key index twice, so the check is not
necessary at all -- add/remove are perfectly nested
due to those checks.

Other keys are allocated in the device in a global
array that only has a certain number of slots, so
for that we need to keep the allocation bitmap; but
the 802.11 key index isn't relevant there.

335348b170 iwlwifi: make WEP key restoring explicit
The firmware clears default WEP keys on
transitions to !associated, so we need
to restore them just like stations. This
is rather implicit as part of sending a
station right now, which is odd. Make it
explicit instead and only for agn since
3945 doesn't use hw crypto for WEP.

Due to that, iwl_send_static_wepkey_cmd
is now only used in iwl-sta.c and can be
static.

de0f60ea94 iwlwifi: avoid Tx queue memory allocation in interface down
We used to free all the Tx queues memory when interface is brought
down and reallocate them again in interface up. This requires
order-4 allocation for txq->cmd[]. In situations like s2ram, this
usually leads to allocation failure in the memory subsystem. The
patch fixed this problem by allocating the Tx queues memory only at
the first time. Later iwl_down/iwl_up only initialize but don't
free and reallocate them. The memory is freed at the device removal
time. BTW, we have already done this for the Rx queue.

This fixed bug https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15551

04f2dec1c3 iwlwifi: use consistent table for tx data collect
When collecting tx data for non-aggregation packets in rate scaling, if
the tx data matches "other table", it still uses current table to update
the stats and calculate average throughput in function rs_collect_tx_data().
This can mess up the rate scaling data structure and cause a kernel panic
in a BUG_ON statement in rs_rate_scale_perform().

To fix this bug, we pass table pointer instead of window pointer (pointed
to by table pointer) to function rs_collect_tx_data() so that the table
being used is consistent.

e61146e36b iwlwifi: manage QoS by mac stack
We activate/deactivate QoS and setup default queue parameters in iwlwifi
driver. Mac stack do the same, so we do not need repeat that work here.
Stack also will tell when disable QoS, this will fix driver when working
with older APs, that do not have QoS implemented.

Patch make "force = true" in iwl_active_qos() assuming we always want
to do with QoS what mac stack wish.

Patch also remove unused qos_cap bits, do not initialize qos_active = 0,
as we have it initialized to zero by kzalloc.

48a6be6a0d iwlwifi: clear unattended interrupts in tasklet
Previously in interrupt handling tasklet, iwlwifi driver only clear/ack
those interrupts that are enabled by the driver through inta_mask.
If the hardware generates unattended interrupts, driver will not ack them,
defeating the interrupt coalescing feature. This results in high number
of interrupts per second and high CPU utilization.

This patch addresses this issue by acking those unattended interrupts
in the tasklet. Local test showed an order of magnitude improvement
in terms of the number of interrupts without sacrificing networking
throughput. This is a workaround for hardware issue.

872c8ddcbe iwlwifi: iwl_good_ack_health() only apply to AGN device
iwl_good_ack_health() check for expected and actual ack count which only
apply to aggregation mode. Move the function to iwlagn module.

e184f67d39 Revert "iwlwifi: fix build error for CONFIG_IWLAGN=n"
This reverts commit 76232ebf89.

iwl_good_ack_health only applies to aggregation and thus only to iwlagn. We
can thus move the function to iwlagn instead of modifying compile flags.
This is done in following patch.

fa8f130c50 iwlwifi: code cleanup for connectivity recovery
Split the connectivity check and recovery routine into separated
functions based on the types
   1. iwl_good_ack_health() - check for ack count
   2. iwl_good_plcp_health() - check for plcp error

Based on the type of errors being detected, different recovery methods
will be used to bring the system back to normal operational state.

Because different NIC has different HW and uCode, the behavior is also
different; these functions thus now form part of the ops infrastructure,
so we can have more control on how to monitor and recover from error condition
case per device.

d5a0ffa3ea iwlwifi: Recover TX flow failure
Monitors the tx statistics to detect the drop in throughput.
When the throughput drops, the ratio of the actual_ack_count and the
expected_ack_count also drops.  At the same time, the aggregated
ba_timeout (the number of ba timeout retries) also rises.  If the
actual_ack_count/expected_ack_count ratio is 0 and the number of ba
timeout retries rises to BA_TIMEOUT_MAX, no tx packets can be delivered.
Reloading the uCode and bring the system back to normal operational
state.

b74e31a9bc iwlwifi: Recover TX flow stall due to stuck queue
Monitors the internal TX queues periodically.  When a queue is stuck
for some unknown conditions causing the throughput to drop and the
transfer is stop, the driver will force firmware reload and bring the
system back to normal operational state.

The iwlwifi devices behave differently in this regard so this feature is
made part of the ops infrastructure so we can have more control on how to
monitor and recover from tx queue stall case per device.
