Currently when configuring the cab queue the scheduler is configured
without station id - which results in station id 0.
In DQA mode this causes firmware to assert later on when the actual
station 0 is added with an empty tfd_queue_mask.
Fix that by configuring the queue to the broadcast station.
This is a bit trickier since the queue should not be included in the
tfd_queue_mask of the ADD_STA since it is a multicast queue, and the
tfd_queue_mask is only unicast queue. As a result the queue should be
enabled only after the broadcast station is added.

When using RSS on 9000 series devices, we can't rely on processing the
received frames for station powersave handling, since they could be
processed on different CPUs and out of order.
In order to still manage the powersave of stations, the firmware sends
a notification on sleep->wake, wake->sleep and - for U-APSD - frames
received with PM while already sleeping (with the TID.)
With this, the driver can set AP_LINK_PS, which is required for real
parallel RX. In addition, this requires checking for PS-Poll frames
and calling ieee80211_sta_pspoll() appropriately.

When we sync the RX queues the driver waits to receive echo
notification on all the RX queues.
The wait queue is set with timeout until all queues have received
the notification.
However, iwl_mvm_rx_queue_notif() never woke up the wait queue,
with the result of the counter value being checked only when the
timeout expired.
This may cause a latency of up to 1 second.

Currently code allows mvm reference to become negative and
only warns in case mvm reference is released while reference
counting is 0.
However, we better prevent this from happening at all since
iwl_mvm_unref() may race against iwl_mvm_unref_all_except()
which is called on restart.
As a result we might get the same reference unreferenced twice
ending with a negative value:
An example for an easily reproduced log:
[ 2689.909166] iwl_mvm_ref Take mvm reference - type 8
[ 2690.732716] iwl_mvm_unref_all_except Cleanup: remove mvm ref type 8 (1)
[ 2690.849708] iwl_mvm_unref Leave mvm reference - type 8
[ 2690.849721] WARNING: ... iwl_mvm_unref+0xb0/0xc0 [iwlmvm]()
If there will be yet another another restart iwl_mvm_unref_all_except
will run from 0 up to ref count, and since it is unsigned, we will throw
the transport ref count completely out of balance:
iwl_mvm_unref_all_except[I] -- Cleanup: remove mvm ref type 8 (255)
iwl_trans_slv_unref[I] -- rpm counter: 0
iwl_trans_slv_unref[I] -- rpm counter: -1
iwl_trans_slv_unref[I] -- rpm counter: -2
...
iwl_trans_slv_unref[I] -- rpm counter: -253
iwl_trans_slv_unref[I] -- rpm counter: -254
As there is no valid scenario where we can get to a negative
reference count - prevent it from happening.

Next hardware will direct packets to core based on the TCP/UDP
streams.
This logic can create holes in reorder buffer since packets that
belong to other stream were directed to a different core.
However, those are valid holes and the packets can be indicated
in L3 order.
The hardware will utilize a mechanism of informing the driver of
the normalized ssn and the driver shall release all packets that
SN is lower than the nssn.
This enables managing the reorder across the queues without sharing
any data between them.
The reorder buffer is allocated and released directly in the RX path
in order to avoid various races between control path and rx path.
The code utilizes the internal messaging to notify rx queues of when
to delete the reorder buffer.

According to the spec when a BA session is started there
is a timeout set for the session in the ADDBA request.
If there is not activity on the TA/TID then the session
expires and a DELBA is sent.
In order to check for the timeout, data must be shared
among the rx queues.
Add a timer that runs as long as BA session is active
for the station and stops aggregation session if needed.
This patch also lays the infrastructure for the reordering
buffer which will be enabled in the next patches.

mac80211 will call the driver whenever there is a race between
RSS queues and control path that requires a processing of all
pending frames in RSS queues.
Implement that by utilizing the internal notification mechanism:
queue a message to all queues. When the message is received on
a queue it decrements the atomic counter. This guarantees that
all pending frames in the RX queue were processed since the message
is in order inside the queue.

"DQA" is shorthand for "dynamic queue allocation". This
enables on-demand allocation of queues per RA/TID rather than
statically allocating per vif, thus allowing a potential
benefit of various factors.
Please refer to the DOC section this patch adds to sta.h to
see a more in-depth explanation of this feature.
There are many things to take into consideration when working
in DQA mode, and this patch is only one in a series. Note that
default operation mode is non-DQA mode, unless the FW
indicates that it supports DQA mode.
This patch enables support of DQA for a station connected to
an AP, and works in a non-aggregated mode.
When a frame for an unused RA/TID arrives at the driver, it
isn't TXed immediately, but deferred first until a suitable
queue is first allocated for it, and then TXed by a worker
that both allocates the queues and TXes deferred traffic.
When a STA is removed, its queues goes back into the queue
pools for reuse as needed.

LQM stands for Link Quality Measurement. The firmware
will collect a defined set of statitics (see the
notification for details) that allow to know how busy
the medium is. The driver issues a request to the firmware
that includes the duration of the measurement (the firmware
needs to be on channel for that amount of time) and the
timeout (in case the firmware has a lot of offchannel
activities). If the timeout elapses, the firmware will
send partial results which are still valuable.
In case of disassociation / channel switch and alike, the
driver is in charge of stopping the measurements and the
firmware will reply with partial results.
The user space API for now is debugfs only and will be
implmemented in an upcoming patch.

Currently paging download buffer is freed during the

This causes a memory leak since the paging download
buffer is allocated every time we enable the

The firmware/hardware only supports checking AES-CMAC on RX, not
using it on TX. For station mode this is fine, since it's the only
thing it will ever do. For AP mode, it never receives such frames,
but must be able to transmit them. This is currently broken since
we try to enable them for hardware crypto (for RX only) and then
treat them as TX_CMD_SEC_EXT, leading to FIFO underruns during TX
so the frames never go out to the air.
To fix this, simply use software on TX in AP (and IBSS) mode.

Beacon abort (ba) is set while sending power command, but only
after at least one beacon_filter command was successfully sent.
If we heard a beacon before starting association, this order
is maintained and ba is properly set.
However, if the first beacon is received after association,
we send the power command upon association, configure the
beacon filtering when the first beacon arrives, and in that case,
beacon abort is not set.
So identify this, and send a power command post the beacon_filter

If protocol offloading is configured, the fw might generate some
frames (e.g. arp response) on its own during d3/d0i3.
On d3/d0i3 exit the driver queries the updated PN (if relevant),
and updates its keys (for the d0i3 case, this is done by
iwl_mvm_d0i3_exit_work(), which is scheduled on d0i3 exit)
While in d0i3, iwlmvm defers tx frames until d0i3 exit, and
then continues their processing.
This is problematic with TKIP, since the frame's PN has already
been set at this stage (in contrast to CCMP, where the PN is
being set only later on), so both the frame's PN and the upcoming
PN update (from d0i3 exit work) might be wrong.
Fix it by moving the TX PN assignment (for TKIP) to the driver,
similarly to CCMP.

As we're working on multi-queue RX, we want to parallelise checking
the PN in order to avoid having to serialise the RX processing.
It may seem that doing parallel PN checking is insecure, but it turns
out to be OK because queue assignment is done based on the data in the
frame (IP/TCP) and thus cannot be manipulated by an attacker, since
the data is encrypted and must first have been decrypted successfully.
There are some corner cases, in particular when the peer starts using
fragmentation which redirects the packet to the default queue. However
this redirection is remembered (for the STA, per TID) and thus cannot
be exploited by an attacker either.
Leave checking on the default queue (queue 0) to mac80211, since we
get fragmented packets there and those are subject to stricter checks
during reassembly.
