We can apply this maximum by passing the drop status to the

A secondary problem, is that one part of the field are initialized only

fixed and will not change during device operation. The other flags are
the device state, and will change frequently. So far this resulted in the fact
that for some flags, the atomic bit accessors are used, while for the others
the non-atomic variants are used.
By splitting the flags up into a "flags" and "cap_flags" we can put all flags
which are fixed inside "cap_flags". This field can then be read non-atomically.

This patch fixes a long standing issue of pending packets in the queue being

This was made worse by aggregation through driver-internal retransmitting
of A-MDPU subframes.
Previously the hardware tx filter was cleared unconditionally for every
single packet - with this patch it uses the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_CLEAR_PS_FILT
for unaggregated frames.
A sta_notify driver op is added to stop aggregation for stations when they
enter powersave mode. Subframes stay buffered inside the driver, to ensure
that the BlockAck window keeps a sane state.
Since the driver uses software aggregation, the clearing of the tx filter
needs to be handled by the driver instead of mac80211 for aggregated frames.

When the interrupt is requested with IRQF_TRIGGER_RISING, IRQF_ONESHOT

Moreover, when IRQF_ONESHOT is not set, iterating more than once in the

limiting the loop to one iteration only. This workaround has an impact
on performance. To remove to this restriction, the race conditions will

wl12xx: Simplify TX blocks accounting
The total number of TX memory blocks may change when the dynamic memory
option is enabled. The current implementation only tracks the available
memory blocks, which over-complicates TX blocks accounting.
By tracking the number of allocated blocks, calculation of the number of
available blocks becomes simpler and cleaner. It simply equals the total
number of TX memory blocks minus the allocated ones.
Also, remove some unnecessary castings and use union member accesses
instead.

wl12xx: Clean up the dummy packet mechanism
The current implementation allocates a skb each time one is requested by
the firmware. Since dummy packets are handled differently than regular
packets, the skb needs to be marked. Currently, this is done by
setting the pkt_type member to 5. This might not be safe, as we cannot
be sure that there won't be any other packets with this pkt_type value.
Since the packet does not change from one request to another, we can
simply allocate a dummy packet template and always send it. All changes
to the skb done during packet preparation must be reverted, so the same
skb can be reused.
The dummy packets are not transmitted, therefore there's no need to set
the BSSID or our own MAC address.
In addition, the header portion of the packet was zeroed by mistake, so
fix that as well.

wl12xx: Clean up the block size alignment code
Simplify and clean up the block size alignment code:
1. Set the block size according to the padding field type, as it cannot
exceed the maximum value this field can hold.
2. Move the alignment code into a function instead of duplicating it in
multiple places.
3. In the current implementation, the block_size member can be
misleading because a zero value actually means that there's no need to
align. Declare a block size alignment quirk instead.

wl12xx: fix "JOIN while associated" commentary
Issuing multiple JOIN commands to the wl12xx's firmware, while
we're associated, might have undesired implications, so the driver
prints a message when that happens, and warn developers who check
out the source.
Update the commentary in order to consider the one valid scenario
where this can happen: roaming.
Cautiously keep the message for now, until we either gain confidence
there are no unintentional JOIN-while-associated events, or until
we move to the new multi-role fw who solves this multiple-join issue
for good.

wl12xx: fix roaming
The wl12xx device normally drops all frames coming from BSSID
it is not joined with.
This behavior is configured today by the wl12xx driver in response
to a handful of ieee80211_bss_change and ieee80211_conf_changed
notification flags, such as BSS_CHANGED_ASSOC, BSS_CHANGED_BSSID,
IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_IDLE, etc..
This breaks when we roam to a new BSSID, where authentication frames
are sent before any BSS_CHANGED/CONF_CHANGED flags are received.
When this happens the hardware silently drops the authentication
responses, and the roaming fails.
Ideally this aggressive filtering behavior of the device should be disabled
upon a notification from mac80211. Such notification will take place
after multi-channel support will be added: mac80211 will likely send a
remain-on-channel notification to drivers when entering sensitive
states (like authentication), otherwise the firmware might jump to
different channels (to serve a different role).
Until those notifications materialize, disable the hw BSSID filter
when authentication requests are sent, so roaming would work.

wl12xx: rearrange some ELP wake_up/sleep calls
ELP (Extremely/Enhanced Low Power, or something like that ;)) refers to
the powerstate of the 12xx chip, in which very low power is consumed,
and no commands (from the host) can be issued until the chip is woken up.
Wakeup/sleep commands must be protected by a wl->mutex, so it's generally
a good idea to call wakeup/sleep along with the mutex lock/unlock (where
needed). However, in some places the wl12xx driver calls wakeup/sleep in
some "inner" functions. This result in some "nested" wakeup/sleep calls
which might end up letting the chip go to sleep prematurely (e.g. during
event handling).
Fix it by rearranging the elp calls to come along with mutex_lock/unlock.
