Thanks for the feedback, appreciate it.

I have done as suggested in v2.

Thanks a lot,

Thanks, I was worried it's something like this. One way to solve this
would be to add a new field to ath10k_hw_params so that the workaround

it is added by below commit, if disable it, will significant effect 
performance.


https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvalo/ath.git/commit/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath11k?id=2f918ea98606100f3a6d47db7ff7c200838ec4f3

ath10k: enable alt data of TX path for sdio

The default credit size is 1792 bytes, but the IP mtu is 1500 bytes,
then it has about 290 bytes's waste for each data packet on sdio
transfer path for TX bundle, it will reduce the transmission utilization
ratio for data packet.

This patch enable the small credit size in firmware, firmware will use
the new credit size 1556 bytes, it will increase the transmission
utilization ratio for data packet on TX patch. It results in significant
performance improvement on TX path.

This patch only effect sdio chip, it will not effect PCI, SNOC etc.

Tested with QCA6174 SDIO with firmware
WLAN.RMH.4.4.1-00017-QCARMSWP-1.

I'm worried that this breaks QCA6174 SDIO support. Wen, what do you

[PATCH] ath10k: Clean the HI_ACS_FLAGS_ALT_DATA_CREDIT_SIZE flag

2021-09-15 Thread Fabio Estevam
On an imx6dl-pico-pi board with a QCA9377 SDIO chip, the following
errors are observed when the board works in STA mode:

Simply running "ssh user@192.168.0.1" causes:

[   55.824159] ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1: failed to transmit packet, dropping: -12
[   55.832169] ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1: failed to submit frame: -12
[   55.838529] ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1: failed to push frame: -12
[   55.905863] ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1: failed to transmit packet, dropping: -12
[   55.913650] ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1: failed to submit frame: -12
[   55.919887] ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1: failed to push frame: -12

and it is not possible to connect via ssh to the other machine.

One user inspected the size of frames on Wireshark and reported
the followig:

"I was able to narrow the issue down to the mtu. If I set the mtu for
the wlan0 device to 1486 instead of 1500, the issue does not happen.

The size of frames that I see on Wireshark is exactly 1500 after
setting it to 1486."

Clearing the HI_ACS_FLAGS_ALT_DATA_CREDIT_SIZE avoids the problem and
the ssh command works successfully after that.

Tested with QCA9377 SDIO with firmware WLAN.TF.1.1.1-00061-QCATFSWPZ-1.
