Based on the process of discovery in
https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/1613, it has become clear
that (at least) the PowerCloud System CR5000 was unable to get
working 5GHz wireless (PCIe) because AH_USE_EEPROM was unconditionally
masked out, not only when qca,noeeprom was in the DTS.
This patch moves mask AH_USE_EEPROM into the if ... qca,noeeprom
OF test.
Thanks to Christian Lampartar (@chunkeey) for the heavy lifting and help.
Patch has been prepared for upstream and will be submitted after review
by @chunkeey and @xdarklight.

This partitialy reverts commit ccab68f2d3.
Registering the GPIO chip without a parent device completely breaks the
ath9k GPIOs for device tree targets.
As long as boards using the devicetree don't have the gpio-controller
property set for the ath9k node, the unloading of the driver works as
expected.
Register the GPIO chip with the ath9k device as parent only for OF
targets to find a trade-off between the needs of driver developers and
the broken LEDs and buttons seen by users.

Currently, dynack was only tested upstream using AP/STA mode.
Testing it on IBSS, showed that late-ack detection was broken.
This is caused due to dynack using Association Request/Response
frames for late-ack detection, which IBSS does not use.
Also allowing Authentication frames here solves this.
A second issue also got fixed, which was also seen AP/STA mode:
When a station was added, the estimated value would be exponentially averaged
using 0 as a starting point.
This means that on larger distances, the ack timeout was still not high
enough before synchronizing would run out of late-ack's for estimation.
Fix this by using the initial estimated value as a baseline
and only start averaging in the following estimation rounds.
Test setup:
- 2x identical devices: RB912UAG-5HPnD + 19dB sector
- IBSS
- 2x2 802.11an (ar9340), HT20, long GI
- RSSI's -70 / -71
- Real distance: 23910 meter
Results (60s iperf runs):
Fixed coverage class 54 (up to 24300m):
* 21.5 Mbits/sec

* 28.9 Mbits/sec

Tri-band devices (1x 2.4GHz + 2x 5GHz) often incorporate special filters in
the RX and TX path. These filtered channel can in theory still be used by
the hardware but the signal strength is reduced so much that it makes no
sense.
There is already a DT property to limit the available channels but ath10k
has to manually call this functionality to limit the currrently set wiphy
channels further.

Most of the implementations behind cfg80211_get_station will not initialize
sinfo to zero before manipulating it. For example, the member "filled",
which indicates the filled in parts of this struct, is often only modified
by enabling certain bits in the bitfield while keeping the remaining bits
in their original state. A caller without a preinitialized sinfo.filled can
then no longer decide which parts of sinfo were filled in by
cfg80211_get_station (or actually the underlying implementations).
cfg80211_get_station must therefore take care that sinfo is initialized to
zero. Otherwise, the caller may tries to read information which was not
filled in and which must therefore also be considered uninitialized. In
batadv_v_elp_get_throughput's case, an invalid "random" expected throughput
may be stored for this neighbor and thus the B.A.T.M.A.N V algorithm may
switch to non-optimal neighbors for certain destinations.

Some ath10k firmware versions allow to access the chip internal a
temperature sensor and allow to reduce the amount of the time when the card
is allowed to send. The latter is required on devices which tend to
overheat.
An userspace service has to read
/sys/class/ieee80211/phy*/device/hwmon/hwmon*/temp1_input regularly and
then decide how much the device has to be throttled. This can be done by
writing to /sys/class/ieee80211/phy*/device/cooling_device/cur_state. By
default it is not throttled (0) but it can be throttled up to 100(%).

<https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10233491/>
|From: Thomas Hebb <tommyhebb@gmail.com>
|Subject: [PATCH] ath10k: search all IEs for variant before falling back
|Date: Wed, 21 Feb 2018 11:43:39 -0500
|[...]
|This patch fixes the issue by first searching the entire file for the ID
|with variant, and searching for the fallback ID only if that search
|fails. It also includes some code cleanup in the area, as
|ath10k_core_fetch_board_data_api_n() no longer does its own string
|mangling to remove the variant from an ID, instead leaving that job to a
|new flag passed to ath10k_core_create_board_name().
|
|I've tested this patch on a QCA4019 and verified that the driver behaves
|correctly for 1) both fallback and variant BDFs present, 2) only fallback
|BDF present, and 3) no matching BDFs present.

Backport patches that separate spectral scan support from general debugfs

KERNEL_RELAY from these driver packages even with debugfs enabled and
avoids the memory footprint of the relay buffers allocated by ath9k/ath10k
even when they aren't used at all.

Board Data File (BDF) is loaded upon driver boot-up procedure. The right
board data file is identified on QCA4019 using bus, bmi-chip-id and
bmi-board-id.
The problem, however, can occur when the (default) board data file cannot
fulfill the vendor requirements and it is necessary to use a different
board data file.
This problem was solved for SMBIOS by adding a special SMBIOS type 0xF8.
Something similar has to be provided for systems without SMBIOS but with
device trees. No solution was specified by QCA and therefore a new one has
to be found for ath10k.
The device tree requires addition strings to define the variant name
wifi@a000000 {
status = "okay";
qcom,ath10k-calibration-variant = "RT-AC58U";
};
wifi@a800000 {
status = "okay";
qcom,ath10k-calibration-variant = "RT-AC58U";
};
This would create the boarddata identifiers for the board-2.bin search
* bus=ahb,bmi-chip-id=0,bmi-board-id=16,variant=RT-AC58U
* bus=ahb,bmi-chip-id=0,bmi-board-id=17,variant=RT-AC58U
