In some cases (e.g. when mac80211 calls iwl_mac_stop() for suspend or user
no longer wants device active), device has not been going into low power state
via __iwl_down(). apm_ops.reset() does not put device into low power state;
instead it resets the device, then puts it into a powered-up state ready to be
re-loaded with uCode and re-started. This has needlessly warmed up user's
laptops and drained batteries.
With current architecture in which mac80211 controls device up/down (including
resetting device after firmware errors), there is no need for apm_ops.reset()
any more; apm_ops.reset() is basically a combination of apm_ops.stop() and
apm_ops.init().
Instead, __iwl_down() now unconditionally places the device into a low-power
state via apm_ops.stop(). Device may be re-started via __iwl_up() calling
apm_ops.init() as soon as it may be needed (e.g. quickly for firmware errors),
but in the meantime, device will stop wasting energy.
Note that, even in this low power state, if driver re-enables interrupts,
the device retains the ability to sense the hardware RF-KILL switch, and
(except for 3945) interrupt the host when it changes.

Both 1000 & 6000 series NICs contain on-chip OTP memory that
replaces the off-chip EEPROM memory. The nature of OTP means
there is a limited number of times a particular board can go through the
factory flow and be (re)calibrated. As a consequence there will be some boards
that contain EEPROM memory because OTP blocks were full.
In the signature validation routine, iwlwifi needs to make sure

The iwlwifi drivers have LED blinking requirements that
mac80211 cannot fulfill due to the use of just a single
LED instead of different ones for TX, RX, radio etc.
Instead, the single LED blinks according to transfers
and is solid on the rest of the time. As such, having
LED class devices registered that mac80211 triggers are
connected to is pointless as we don't use the triggers
anyway.
Remove all the useless code and add hooks into the
driver itself. At the same time, make the LED code
abstracted so the core code that determines blink rate
etc. can be shared between 3945 and agn in iwlcore.
At the same time, the fact that we removed the use of
the mac80211 LED triggers means we can also remove the
IWLWIFI_LEDS Kconfig symbol since the LED support is
now self-contained.

When uCode detects critical temperature it should send "card state
notification" interrupt to driver and then shut itself down to prevent
overheating. There is a race condition where uCode shuts down before it
can deliver the interrupt to driver.
Additional method provided here for driver to enter CT_KILL state based
on temperature reading.
How it works:
Method 1:
If driver receive "card state notification" interrupt from uCode; it
enters "CT_KILL" state immediately
Method 2:
If the last temperature report by Card reach Critical temperature,
driver will send "statistic notification" request to uCode to verify the
temperature reading, if driver can not get reply from uCode within
300ms, driver will enter CT_KILL state automatically.
Method 3:
If the last temperature report by Card did not reach Critical
temperature, but uCode already shut down due to critical temperature.
All the host commands send to uCode will not get process by uCode;
when command queue reach the limit, driver will check the last reported
temperature reading, if it is within pre-defined margin, enter "CT_KILL"
state immediately. In this case, when uCode ready to exit from "CT_KILL" state,
driver need to restart the adapter in order to reset all the queues and
resume normal operation.
One additional issue being address here, when system is in CT_KILL
state, both tx and rx already stopped, but driver still can send host
command to uCode, it will flood the command queue since card was not
responding; adding STATUS_CT_KILL flag to reject enqueue host commands
to uCode if it is in CT_KILL state, when uCode is ready to come out of
CT_KILL, driver will clear the STATUS_CT_KILL bit and allow enqueue the host
commands to uCode to recover from CT_KILL state.

IWL_LED_RF_STATE (new) -
LED OFF: No power/RF disabled, the LED is emitting no light

Current rate scale algorithm fluctuates between different MIMO modes fairly
rapidly, causing widely varying performance. These fluctuations occur because in
the rate_scale tables for expected throughput the values are not very different
for different modes.
However, when aggregation is turned on and MAC overhead is reduced, the
expected throughput for different MIMO modes grows and different modes have
vastly different performance. Add expected throughput tables for this case.
We also need to keep track of aggregation status per-station, so we add the

When 802.11g was introduced, we had RTS/CTS and CTS-to-Self protection
mechanisms. In an HT Beacon, HT stations use the "Operating Mode" field
in the HT Information Element to determine whether or not to use
protection.
The Operating Mode field has 4 possible settings: 0-3:
Mode 0: If all stations in the BSS are 20/40 MHz HT capable, or if the
BSS is 20/40 MHz capable, or if all stations in the BSS are 20 MHz HT
stations in a 20 MHz BSS
Mode 1: used if there are non-HT stations or APs using the primary or
secondary channels
Mode 2: if only HT stations are associated in the BSS and at least one
20 MHz HT station is associated.
Mode 3: used if one or more non-HT stations are associated in the BSS.
When in operating modes 1 or 3, and the Use_Protection field is 1 in the
Beacon's ERP IE, all HT transmissions must be protected using RTS/CTS or
CTS-to-Self.
By default, CTS-to-self is the preferred protection mechanism for less
overhead and higher throughput; but using the full RTS/CTS will better
protect the inner exchange from interference, especially in
highly-congested environment.
For 6000 series WIFI NIC, RTS/CTS protection mechanism is the
recommended choice for HT traffic based on the HW design.

The chain settings we currently use in iwlwifi are
rather confusing -- and we also go by the wrong
settings entirely under certain circumstances. To
clean it up, create a new variable in the current
HT config -- single_chain_sufficient -- that tells
us whether we need more than one chain. Calculate
that based on the AP and operating mode (no IBSS
HT implemented -- so no need for multiple chains,
for station mode we use the AP's capabilities).
Additionally, since APs always send disabled SM PS
mode, keeping track of their sm_ps mode isn't very
useful -- doubly not so for our _own_ RX config
since that should depend on our, not the AP's, SM
PS mode.
Finally, document that our configuration of the
number of RX chains used is currently wrong when
in powersave (by adding a comment).
All together this removes the two remaining items
in struct iwl_ht_config that were done wrong there.
For the future, the number of RX chains and some
SM PS handshaking needs to be added to mac80211,
which then needs to tell us, and the new variable
current_ht_config.single_chain_sufficient should
also be calculated by mac80211.

The address stored in the next link address is a word address but when

valid so return an error.
The algorithm is simply valid blocks have a next address and that
address's contents is zero.
Using the wrong address for the next link address gets arbitrary data,
obviously. In cases seen, the first block is considered valid when it is not.
If the block has in fact been invalidated there may be old data or
there may be no data, bad data, or partial data, there is no way of
