[PATCH 2/4] ath10k: htt_tx: do not interpret Eth frames as WiFi

2022-05-15 Thread Sergey Ryazanov
The xmit path for the Ethernet encapsulated frames become more or less
usable since d740d8fd2439 ("ath10k: unify tx mode and dispatch"). This
change reorganize the xmit path in a manageable way to properly support
various tx modes, but misses that the Ethernet encapsulated frame is a
special case. We do not have an IEEE 802.11 header at the begining of
them. But the HTT Tx handler still interprets first bytes of each frame
as an IEEE 802.11 Frame Control field.

Than this code was copied by e62ee5c381c5 ("ath10k: Add support for
htt_data_tx_desc_64 descriptor") and a2097d6444c3 ("ath10k: htt: High
latency TX support") to another handlers. In fact the issue in the high
latency (HL) handler was introduced by 83ac260151e7 ("ath10k: add mic
bytes for pmf management packet").

Ethernet encapsulated frame tx mode stay unused until 75d85fd9993c
("ath10k: introduce basic tdls functionality") started using it for TDLS
frames to avoid key selection issue in some firmwares.

Trying to interpret the begining of an Ethernet encapsulated frame as an
IEEE 802.11 header was not hurt us noticeably since we need to meet two
conditions: (1) xmit should be performed towards a TDLS peer, and (2)
the TDLS peer should have a specific OUI part of its MAC address. Looks
like that the rareness in TDLS communications of OUIs that can be
interpreted as an 802.11 management frame saves users from facing this
issue earlier.

Improve Ethernet tx mode support in the HTT Tx handler by avoiding
interpreting its first bytes as an IEEE 802.11 header. While at it, make
the ieee80211_hdr variable local to the code block that is guarded by
!is_eth check. In this way, we clarify in which cases a frame can be
interpreted as IEEE 802.11, and saves us from similar issues in the
future.

Credits: this change as part of xmit encapsulation offloading support
was originally made by QCA and then submitted for inclusion by John
Crispin [1]. But the whole work was not accepted due to the lack of a
part for 64-bits descriptors [2]. Zhijun You then pointed this out to me
in a reply to my initial RFC patch series. And I made this slightly
reworked version that covered all the HTT Tx handler variants.

[PATCH 0/4] ath10k: add encapsulation offloading support

2022-05-15 Thread Sergey Ryazanov
Hello,

this series introduces driver support for hardware encapsulation
offloading feature.

The main goal of the series is an overall improvement of system
performance. On a QCA9563+QCA9888-based access point in bridged mode,
encapsulation offloading increases TCP 16-streams DL throughput from
365 to 396 mbps (+8%) and UDP DL throughput from 436 to 483 mbps (+11%).

The series consist of four patches, the first three prepare the code,
and the last one introduces the offloading support itself. The first
patch reworks transmission status reporting to make it flexible enough
to support 802.11 and Ethernet encapsulated frames reporting. The second
patch reworks improves Ethernet encapsulated frames handling in the HTT
Tx layer. The third patch reworks the module parameter that configures
the main encapsulation format of frames that are passed from the driver
to the hardware. It makes it possible to configure more encapsulation
methods than just raw or not-raw. And, as stated before, the fourth
patch actually introduces offloading support. It changes a couple of
frame analysis places along the xmit path and starts reporting
offloading support to mac80211 via the corresponding hw attribute.

The new feature has been extensively tested with QCA9888. It works well
and introduces a measurable performance increase on platforms with not
so fast CPU (e.g. QCA9563). Tests with MT7621+QCA6174 show no
regression. I was unable to observe any measurable throughput increase
in tests with QCA6174 due to the poor perfomance the SISO client and OTA
testing. Only slight downlink rate stability increase with slight
reducing of the SIRQ load on the AP side.

Tests with QCA9880, QCA9980, QCA9984, QCA9377 revealed no regression
[1]. No specific throughput tests have been performed. In OTA tests with
a regular load, there is a slight increase in througput stability.

In tests of the QCA9377 in Sta mode, Edward Matijevic noticed a possible
regression in the Ethernet tx mode compared to the Native WiFi tx
mode:
> There might be a regression in download bandwidth under ETHERNET mode
> but I didn't do enough tests to see if was my PC or the adapter as the
> upload bandwidth was similar to other tests.
> NATIVE_WIFI performs the same as without the patch.

Credits: thanks to OpenWrt folks Oldřich Jedlička
 and Edward Matijevic  who
helped me a lot to perform extensive testing with various chips after a
RFC/RFT post in the OpenWrt development mailing list [1]. Thanks to
Zhijun You  who helped with the testing, pointed me
to the previous work (see below) and the missed parts in the HTT Tx
layer [1].

Prior work: similar patches were independently developed by QCA and then
submitted for inclusion by John Crispin  [2] and
latter by Zhijun You  [3]. The work was not merged
due to the lack of a part for 64-bits descriptors [4]. The idea of HTT
Tx layer change from this work was adopted for the series in patch #2.

[PATCH 3/4] ath10k: turn rawmode into frame_mode

2022-05-15 Thread Sergey Ryazanov
Turn boolean rawmode module param into integer frame_mode param that
contains value from ath10k_hw_txrx_mode enum. As earlier the default
param value is non-RAW (native Wi-Fi) encapsulation. The param name
is selected to be consistent with the similar ath11k param.

This is a preparation step for upcoming encapsulation offloading
support.

[PATCH 1/4] ath10k: improve tx status reporting

2022-05-15 Thread Sergey Ryazanov
We use ieee80211_tx_status() to report each completed tx frame.
Internally, this function calls sta_info_get_by_addrs(), what has a
couple of drawbacks:
1. additional station lookup causes a performance degradation;
2. mac80211 can not properly account Ethernet encapsulated frames due
   to the inability to properly determine the destination (station) MAC
   address since ieee80211_tx_status() assumes the frame has a 802.11
   header.

The latter is especially destructive if we want to use hardware frames
encapsulation.

To fix both of these issues, replace ieee80211_tx_status() with
ieee80211_tx_status_ext() call and feed it station pointer from the tx
queue associated with the transmitted frame.

[PATCH 4/4] ath10k: add encapsulation offloading support

2022-05-15 Thread Sergey Ryazanov
Frame encapsulation from Ethernet into the IEEE 802.11 frame format
takes a considerable host CPU time on the xmit path. The firmware is
able to do this operation for us, so enable encapsulation offloading for
AP and Sta interface types to improve overall system performance.

The driver is almost ready for encapsulation offloading support. There
are only a few places where the driver assumes the frame format is IEEE
802.11 that need to be fixed.

Encapsulation offloading is currently disabled by default and the driver
utilizes mac80211 encapsulation support. To activate offloading, the
frame_mode=2 parameter should be passed during module loading.

On a QCA9563+QCA9888-based access point in bridged mode, encapsulation
offloading increases TCP 16-streams DL throughput from 365 to 396 mbps
(+8%) and UDP DL throughput from 436 to 483 mbps (+11%).
