Just some minor conflicts between the wireless-next changes
and Joe Perches's "extern" removal from function prototypes
in header files.
John W. Linville says:
====================
Regarding the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says:
"The big work here is from Marcel and Johan. They did a lot of work
in the L2CAP, HCI and MGMT layers. The most important ones are the
addition of a new MGMT command to enable/disable LE advertisement
and the introduction of the HCI user channel to allow applications
to get directly and exclusive access to Bluetooth devices."
As to the ath10k bits, Kalle says:
"Bartosz dropped support for qca98xx hw1.0 hardware from ath10k, it's
just too much to support it. Michal added support for the new firmware
interface. Marek fixed WEP in AP and IBSS mode. Rest of the changes are
minor fixes or cleanups."
And also:
"Major changes are:
* throughput improvements including aligning the RX frames correctly and
optimising HTT layer (Michal)
* remove qca98xx hw1.0 support (Bartosz)
* add support for firmware version 999.999.0.636 (Michal)
* firmware htt statistics support (Kalle)
* fix WEP in AP and IBSS mode (Marek)
* fix a mutex unlock balance in debugfs file (Shafi)
And of course there's a lot of smaller fixes and cleanup."
For the wl12xx bits, Luca says:
"Here are some patches intended for 3.13. Eliad is upstreaming a bunch
of patches that have been pending in the internal tree. Mostly bugfixes
and other small improvements."
Along with that...
Arend and friends bring us a batch of brcmfmac updates, Larry Finger
offers some rtlwifi refactoring, and Sujith sends the usual batch of
ath9k updates. As usual, there are a number of other small updates
from a variety of players as well.

It was observed few times, the artificial max_scan limit we

instance while being associated and during heavy traffic.
What we do if the FW won't return with scan results within

When a packet is passed from mac80211 to the driver with the
IEEE80211_TX_CTL_PS_RESPONSE flag set, it bypasses the normal driver
internal queueing and goes directly to the UAPSD queue.
When that happens, packets that are part of a BlockAck session still
need to be tracked as such inside the driver, otherwise it will create
discrepancies in the receiver BA reorder window, causing traffic stalls.
This only happens in AP mode with powersave-enabled clients.

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.

All QCA chips have the ability to parse the CF Parameter Set
IE in beacons. If the IE is malformed in the beacons from some
APs [1], the HW locks up. In AP mode, a beacon stuck would happen
and in client mode, a disconnection usually is the result.
To fix this issue, set the AR_PCU_MISC_MODE2_CFP_IGNORE to ignore
the CFP IE in beacons - this is applicable for all chips. For
AP mode, if this issue happens, the NAV is also corrupted and has
to be reset - this will be done in a subsequent patch.

Ethernet-like decapping mode leaves IP protocol
frame not aligned to 4-byte boundaries. This leads

NWifi decap mode always reports 802.11 Data
Frames, even when QoS Data Frames are actually
received.
This made mac80211 not report frame priority
properly (since there was no QoS Control field).

HW reports each A-MSDU subframe as a separate
sk_buff. It is impossible to configure it to
behave differently.
Until now ath10k was reconstructing A-MSDUs from
subframes which involved a lot of memory
operations. This proved to be a significant
contributor to degraded RX performance.

There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern
in the kernel sources. Standardize on not using extern for
function prototypes.
Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern.
extern is assumed by the compiler. Its use is as unnecessary as
using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.

Instead of allocating sk_buff for a mere 16-byte
tx fragment list buffer use headroom of the
original msdu sk_buff.
This decreases CPU cache pressure and improves
performance.
Measured improvement on AP135 is 560mbps ->
590mbps of UDP TX briding traffic.

Until now the all MSDU transfer related structures
were freed when all resources were unreferenced.
Now HTC transfer is freed independently and HTT
transfer is so too.
This yields a way more simpler ath10k_skb_cb and
should possibly enable parallel pipe processing
(which is now serialized in
ath10k_pci_process_ce routine).

Commit e9bb0aa39 ("ath10k: delete struct ce_sendlist") broke
num_sends_allowed incrementing. num_sends_allowed
exceeded initial values and could overflow.
This code was supposed to replenish
num_sends_allowed for partial sendlist items (i.e.
before final sendlist item from a sendlist was
completed and could be processed by completion
handlers).
Fortunately it seems it did not cause any major breakage,
yet.

The patch prevents beacon misses in some case of

If a beacon can't be transmitted directly from an

transmission will be retried once TX credits

The patch removes HTC endpoint tx workers in
favour of direct command submission. This makes a
lot more sense for data path.
mac80211 queues are effectively stopped/woken up
in a more timely fashion preventing build up of
frames. It's possible to push more traffic than
the device/system is able to handle and have no
hiccups or performance degradation with UDP
traffic.
WMI commands will now report errors properly and
possibly block as they actively can wait for tx
credits to become available.
