Subject: [PATCH] wifi: ath11k: Optimize 6 GHz scan time
|
||
|
|
||
|
Currently, time taken to scan all supported channels on WCN6750
|
||
|
is ~8 seconds and connection time is almost 10 seconds. WCN6750
|
||
|
supports three Wi-Fi bands (i.e., 2.4/5/6 GHz) and the numbers of
|
||
|
channels for scan come around ~100 channels (default case).
|
||
|
Since the chip doesn't have support for DBS (Dual Band Simultaneous),
|
||
|
scans cannot be parallelized resulting in longer scan times.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Among the 100 odd channels, ~60 channels are in 6 GHz band. Therefore,
|
||
|
optimizing the scan for 6 GHz channels will bring down the overall
|
||
|
scan time.
|
||
|
|
||
|
WCN6750 firmware has support to scan a 6 GHz channel based on co-located
|
||
|
AP information i.e., RNR IE which is found in the legacy 2.4/5 GHz scan
|
||
|
results. When a scan request with all supported channel list is enqueued
|
||
|
to the firmware, then based on WMI_SCAN_CHAN_FLAG_SCAN_ONLY_IF_RNR_FOUND
|
||
|
scan channel flag, firmware will scan only those 6 GHz channels for which
|
||
|
RNR IEs are found in the legacy scan results.
|
||
|
|
||
|
In the proposed design, based on NL80211_SCAN_FLAG_COLOCATED_6GHZ scan
|
||
|
flag, driver will set the WMI_SCAN_CHAN_FLAG_SCAN_ONLY_IF_RNR_FOUND flag
|
||
|
for non-PSC channels. Since there is high probability to find 6 GHz APs
|
||
|
on PSC channels, these channels are always scanned. Only non-PSC channels
|
||
|
are selectively scanned based on cached RNR information from the legacy
|
||
|
scan results.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If NL80211_SCAN_FLAG_COLOCATED_6GHZ is not set in the scan flags,
|
||
|
then scan will happen on all supported channels (default behavior).
|
||
|
|
||
|
With these optimizations, scan time is improved by 1.5-1.8 seconds on
|
||
|
WCN6750. Similar savings have been observed on WCN6855.
