commit effd4d9aece9184f526e6556786a94d335e38b71 upstream.
Since the dawn of its time, iwlwifi has used
interruptible waits to wait for synchronous
commands and firmware loading.
This leads to "interesting" bugs, because it
can't actually handle the interruptions; for
example when a command sending is interrupted
it will assume the command completed fully,
and then leave it pending, which leads to all
kinds of trouble when the command finishes
later.
Since there's no easy way to gracefully deal
with interruptions, fix the driver to not use
interruptible waits.
This at least fixes the error
iwlagn 0000:02:00.0: Error: Response NULL in 'REPLY_SCAN_ABORT_CMD'
I have seen in P2P testing, but it is likely
that there are other errors caused by this.

Alexander reported a strange crash in iwlagn that
Meenakshi and Wey couldn't reproduce. I just ran
into the same issue and tracked it down to stack

Implement WoWLAN support in iwlagn. The device
supports a number of wakeup triggers and can do
GTK rekeying when asleep (if HW crypto is used).
Unfortunately, we need to disconnect from the AP
after resume since we can't yet get all the info
out of the wowlan uCode to stay connected safely.

* send_cmd that receives a iwl_host_cmd
* send_cmd_pdu that builds the iwl_host_cmd itself and received flags

functions.

The ucode subtypes keep changing, and there's no
particular reason to be checking them (other than
a paranoid sanity check). Since the numbers are
also in conflict between different ucode images
now, simply don't check them any more and rely on
the images being built correctly.
Also, to indicate that, rename the constants and
the enum, moving it to a different file.

This patch adds the feature to support the test mode operation through
the generic netlink channel NL80211_CMD_TESTMODE between intel
wireless device iwlwifi and the user space application svtool.
The main purpose is to create a transportation layer between the iwlwifi
device and the user space application so that the interaction between the
user space application svtool and the iwlwifi device in the kernel space is
in a way of generic netlink messaging.
The detail specific functions are:
1. The function iwl_testmode_cmd() is added to digest the svtool test command
from the user space application. The svtool test commands are categorized to
three types : commands to be processed by the device ucode, commands to access
the registers, and commands to be processed at the driver level(such as reload
the ucode). iwl_testmode_cmd() dispatches the commands the corresponding handlers
and reply to user space regarding the command execution status. Extra data is
returned to the user space application if there's any.
2. The function iwl_testmode_ucode_rx_pkt() is added to multicast all the spontaneous
messages from the iwlwifi device to the user space. Regardless the message types,
whenever there is a valid spontaneous message received by the iwlwifi ISR,
iwl_testmode_ucode_rx_pkt() is invoked to multicast the message content to user
space. The message content is not attacked and the message parsing is left to
the user space application.
Implementation guidelines:
1. The generic netlink messaging for iwliwif test mode is through NL80211_CMD_TESTMODE
channel, therefore, the codes need to follow the regulations set by cfg80211.ko
to get the actual device instance ieee80211_ops via cfg80211.ko, so that the iwlwifi
device is indicated with ieee80211_ops and can be actually accessed.
Therefore, a callback iwl_testmode_cmd() is added to the structure
iwlagn_hw_ops in iwl-agn.c.
2. It intends to utilize those low level device access APIs from iwlwifi device driver
(ie. iwlagn.ko) rather than creating it's own set of device access functions.
For example, iwl_send_cmd(), iwl_read32(), iwl_write8(), and iwl_write32() are reused.
3. The main functions are maintained in new files instead of spreading all over the
existing iwlwifi driver files.
The new files added are :
drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-sv-open.c
- to handle the user space test mode application command
and reply the respective command status to the user space application.
- to multicast the spontaneous messages from device to user space.
drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-testmode.h
- the commonly referenced definitions for the TLVs used in
the generic netlink messages

The current firmware loading mechanism in
iwlwifi is very hard to follow, and thus
hard to maintain. To make it easier, make
the firmware loading synchronous.
For now, as a side effect, this removes a
number of retry possibilities we had. It
isn't typical for this to fail, but if it
does happen we restart from scratch which
this also makes easier to do should it be
necessary.

The microcode may sometimes reject TX frames when
on a radar channel even after we associated as it
clears information during association and needs to
receive a new beacon before allowing that channel
again. This manifests itself as a TX status value
of TX_STATUS_FAIL_PASSIVE_NO_RX. So in this case,
stop the corresponding queue and give the frame
back to mac80211 for retransmission. We start the
queue again when a beacon from the AP is received
which will make the regulatory enforcement in the
device allow transmitting again.

This generates a massive reduction in module size:
with debug:
text data bss dec hex filename
670300 13136 420 683856 a6f50 iwlagn.ko (before)
388347 13136 408 401891 621e3 iwlagn.ko (after)
without debug:
text data bss dec hex filename
528575 13072 420 542067 84573 iwlagn.ko (before)
294192 13072 408 307672 4b1d8 iwlagn.ko (after)
This also removes all the IO debug functionality since
it can easily be replaced by tracing, and makes the
code unnecessarily complex.
I haven't done any CPU utilisation measurements, but
given that the hotpaths don't use much IO it is not
likely to have a negative impact; in fact, the size
reduction will reduce cache pressure which possibly
improves performance.
Finally, an unused function or two were removed.

PCI L1 Active needs to be disabled while loading the uCode so that the bus
doesn't go to sleep. The enablement of L1 Active should be done after
the uCode has sent the ALIVE response. The enablement of L1 Active was
missing.
Enabling L1 Active allows to save power if the BIOS / bus driver allows
it.
I measured the power consumption while not associated and
idle/associated:
L1 Active disabled: 39 mA = 130mW

In uCode, BT state machine need to receive open envlope
command before perform calibration; followed by close envlope
command to move to next stage.
Since Linux has two separated uCode, one for init and the second
one for runtime; we use open envlope commands for init uCode to
indicate we are ready to perform calibration operation.
But for runtime uCode, we are not doing any init calibration,
so we issue open/close envlope commands to force uCode move to
"BT COEX ON" state.
