This code assumed that the mt7628an_tplink_8m.dtsi file defines
mediatek,mtd-eeprom for the wmac and sets status to okay.

The mediatek,mtd-eeprom definition was removed in commit e93f41a
("ramips: convert MT7628 EEPROM to NVMEM format") but the dts for these
two devices was not adapted to include the eeprom position on its own.

The status = "okay" property was removed in 0a1d156 ("ramips:
mt7628: use nvmem-layout"), but the property was not added to these dts
files.

Without this change wifi does not work for these devices.

STRIP_KERNEL_EXPORTS is currently not working on kernel 6.6 as there
have been major changes in the upstream kernel.

I have looked at it, and I dont think we can adapt the current patch to
work so until this is fixed lets prevent STRIP_KERNEL_EXPORTS from
being selected on 6.6.

Signed-off-by: Robert Marko <[email protected]>
Our kernel export stripping has been broken on 6.6 from the start since
upstream kernel really reworked stuff in ("kbuild: generate KSYMTAB entries
by modpost") and other commits as well.

So, until this is either fixed or reworked lets drop the patch as it doesnt
make sense to carry it knowing its broken and it can always be easily
restored.

All three PCIe ports are reported non working on Meraki MR42/MR52 boards
since kernel 6.1 with the issue of PCIe PHY link never coming up thus
no WLAN cards are available on the boards.

After debugging it seems that PCIe worked on 5.15 and older purely by
accident as device DTS was using /delete-property/ perst-gpios; in each
of the 3 PCIe nodes but there was no "perst-gpios" property in the SoC DTSI
as it was still using the older "perst-gpio" property so it was not getting
removed from the device DTS.

However, in kernel 6.1 commit ("ARM: dts: qcom-*: replace deprecated
perst-gpio with perst-gpios") updated all Qualcomm DTS-es to use the newer
"perst-gpios" and thus once ipq806x moved to 6.1 PCIe stopped working as
now that property was being dropped from the device DTS.

So, since the removal of PERST pins seems to have been wrong from the start
lets drop the property removal from MR42/MR52.

Flash instructions:
========
1. Manually upgrade firmware using openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx8500-squashfs-factory.bin image.
More details can be found here: https://www.linksys.com/support-article?articleNum=47547
After first boot check actual partition:
- fw_printenv -n boot_part
and install firmware on second partition using command in case of 2:
- mtd -r -e kernel -n write openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx8500-squashfs-factory.bin kernel
and in case of 1:
- mtd -r -e alt_kernel -n write openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx8500-squashfs-factory.bin alt_kernel

2. Installation using serial connection from OEM firmware (default login: root, password: admin):
- fw_printenv -n boot_part
In case of 2:
- flash_erase /dev/mtd21 0 0
- nandwrite -p /dev/mtd21 openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx8500-squashfs-factory.bin
or in case of 1:
- flash_erase /dev/mtd23 0 0
- nandwrite -p /dev/mtd23 openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx8500-squashfs-factory.bin
After first boot install firmware on second partition:
- mtd -r -e kernel -n write openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx8500-squashfs-factory.bin kernel
or:
- mtd -r -e alt_kernel -n write openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx8500-squashfs-factory.bin alt_kernel

3. Installation from initramfs image using USB drive:
Put the initramfs image on the USB drive:
- dd bs=1M if=openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx8500-initramfs-uImage.itb of=/dev/sda
Stop u-boot and run:
- usb start && usbboot $loadaddr 0 && bootm $loadaddr
Write firmware to the flash from initramfs:
- mtd -e kernel -n write openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx8500-squashfs-factory.bin kernel
and:
- mtd -r -e alt_kernel -n write openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx8500-squashfs-factory.bin alt_kernel

4. Back to the OEM firmware:
- mtd -e kernel -n write FW_MX8500_1.0.11.208937_prod.img kernel
and:
- mtd -r -e alt_kernel -n write FW_MX8500_1.0.11.208937_prod.img alt_kernel

5. USB recovery:
Put the initramfs image on the USB:
- dd bs=1M if=openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx8500-initramfs-uImage.itb of=/dev/sda
Set u-boot env:
- fw_setenv bootusb 'usb start && usbboot $loadaddr 0 && bootm $loadaddr'
- fw_setenv bootcmd 'run bootusb; if test $auto_recovery = no; then bootipq; elif test $boot_part = 1; then run bootpart1; else run bootpart2; fi'

AQR firmware:
========
1. Firmware loading:
To properly load the firmware and initialize AQR PHY, we must use the u-boot aq_load_fw function.
To do this, you need to modify u-boot env:
With USB recovery:
- fw_setenv bootcmd 'aq_load_fw; run bootusb; if test $auto_recovery = no; then bootipq; elif test $boot_part = 1; then run bootpart1; else run bootpart2; fi'
and without:
- fw_setenv bootcmd 'aq_load_fw; if test $auto_recovery = no; then bootipq; elif test $boot_part = 1; then run bootpart1; else run bootpart2; fi'

2. Firmware updating:
Newer firmware (AQR-G4_v5.6.5-AQR_WNC_SAQA-L2_GT_ID45287_VER24005.cld) is available in the latest OEM firmware.
To load this firmware via u-boot, we need to add the MBN header and update 0:ethphyfw partition.
For MBN header we can use script from this repository: https://github.com/testuser7/aqr_mbn_tool
- python aqr_mbn_tool.py AQR-G4_v5.6.5-AQR_WNC_SAQA-L2_GT_ID45287_VER24005.cld
To update partition we need to install kmod-mtd-rw package first:
- insmod mtd-rw.ko i_want_a_brick=1
- mtd -e /dev/mtd26 -n write aqr_fw.mbn /dev/mtd26

Because recent changes to procd, last "console" argument was used as
primary argument and causing no terminal to be spawned on serial

already an alias specified, which lets procd decide where to spawn the

Implementing the updating of firmware initiated dynamic MU-EDCA
parameters in Beacon IE. Firmware routinely checks its clients and
updates its MU-EDCA values every 3 seconds. Firmware is tuning
MU-EDCA parameters to improve performance. As part of this process,
the firmware informs host about new MU-EDCA values utilizing
WMI_MUEDCA_PARAMS_CONFIG_EVENTID. FW expectation is that host will
update MU-EDCA parameters in the Beacon IE.
not needed for NSS offload and helps save some memory
Leave it set to '0', as it will kernel panic with 2K skb patch. This
flag was incorrectly assumed to save memory on 1G platforms.

ath11k_nss: remove leftover max_tx_ring

it was not removed when applying patch to replace it with 'max_tx_ring =
DP_TCL_NUM_RING_MAX +1'

ath11k_nss: Import bugfix patches

ath11k_nss: Experimental build for IPQ6018

This will require setting the correct `ATH11K_MEM_PROFILE_XXX` for your
platform. Setting it to value lower/higher than physically available
will cause NULL virtual address kernel panics.

I believe this setting was not originally meant to reduce memory
footprint of 1G+ platforms, but to account for platforms that were
512M or less.

Will require tweaking to allow for the old behvaior on 1G+ IPQ807x,
while still saving memory for platforms <= 512M.
QSDK NSS builds utilize skbuff recycling for better handling of memory.

On a Dynalink DL-WRX36 (pbuf script should be set to 'auto') a significant drop in
memory usage was observed as well consistent sustained RX/TX speeds.

BEFORE:
echo 3 >! /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches

free -m
               total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available

Swap:              0           0           0

AFTER:
               total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
Mem:             867         242         594           1          81         624
Swap:              0           0           0

NOTE:

For 512MB platforms, users need to test with the following scenarios,
as the patch `999-233-ath11k-Disable-rx_header-tlv-for-2K-SKB.patch` is
really only testable on platforms with 512M or less RAM.

1.) Explicitly setting 'ATH11K_MEM_PROFILE_512M' on and see if system
    crashes on boot.

2.) Explicitly setting 'ATH11K_MEM_PROFILE_1G'

3.) Remove patches
    999-233-ath11k-Disable-rx_header-tlv-for-2K-SKB.patch
    999-311-ath11k-configure-nss-thread-priority-during-pdev_ini.patch

    And re-test with #1 and #2

It was incorrectly assumed that setting a 512M for 1G platforms would save
memory, instead it needs to be explicitly set to know proper memory
regions, otherwise it would cause fw crash.

ath11k_nss: fix typo in 512M memory profile

ath11k_nss: remove SFE patch 718-e-mac80211-Deliver-the-frame-to-driver-tx-ops-directly

It is not relevant to NSS builds and only meant for SFE.

ath11k_nss: remove unecessary patches

Color collision should be left on by default, as it's a primary feature
of 802.11AX.

ath11k_nss: fix spacing

ath11k_nss: Remove unnecessary TKIP bloat

Remove TKIP patches that are not being used as 99% of folks are running
modern encryption (AES-CCMP,SAE,etc).

ath11k_nss: parameterize DP_RXDMA_REFILL_RING_SIZE memory profile

ath11k_nss: Remove SFE related code

Cleanup SFE (shortcut fe) related code as we're not using it on NSS

ath11k_nss: idr, ampdu, and skb headroom check optimizations

ath11k_nss: get valid last_rate for rx_bitrate from cpu stats

ath11k_nss: Fix BCCA counter for EMA

Currently BCCA counter is updated to FW via csa counter offs and
beacon with new countdown is updated for every beacon tx completion event.
For EMA, all EMA beacons are updated in one shot, and counter update for
every tx event will mess up the actual sequence of countdown sent over the air.

Allow FW to update the countdown till 1 and finalize the color
change.

ath11k_nss: Fix compile for TRACE feature
The performance of Qualcomm Crypto Engine is 10x slower than kernel
based encryption via ARMv8 crypto extensions. Rather than building it
into the kernel allow users to select it as module which can be tested with
other HW based crypto APIs via cryptodev-linux.
Since SKB recycler was merged into main nss-wifi branch, it is not
necessary to manually tinker with pbuf script. Memory is now properly
managed between NSS driver allocating/deallocating SKBs. For optimal
wifi performance, especially upload, it is advised to leave the script
to 'auto'.

Users who use sysupgrade should manually set the uci config
'/etc/config/pbuf' as it will not overwrite existing configuration.
This will now be the default NSS branch, and will cover
both kernel 6.1 and 6.6 related changes going forward.

qualcommax: NSS: fix up 'nss_region'
Symbols for crypto, ktls, netfilter are removed from from being compiled
into the kernel and instead left up to the user to compile as modules,
as is the case upstream. Other unused qca features were also removed as
they don't apply to ipq807x/6018 and are not upstream.

Common symbols between 6.1/6.6 that are required for NSS related
features have been consolidated into 'config-default'.

There is an average 300kb of savings in the final kernel image as well
decreased compile time.

qualcommax: NSS: consolidate patches and align with 6.1

Update nss-cfi to kernel 6.6
Disable software input output translation lookaside buffer (swiotlb) as
it wastes memory on low memory platforms (512m or less)

qualcommax: only disable swiotlb for platforms <= 512M

Disabling swiotlb is only required for platforms with 512M or less to save
64mb.
In ath11k_dp_rx_msdu_coalesce(), rxcb is fetched from skb and bool
is_continuation is part of rxcb.

Currently, after freeing the skb, the rxcb->is_continuation accessed
again which is wrong since the memory is already freed.

Hence fix the issue by locally defining bool is_continuation from rxcb,
so that after freeing skb also we can use is_continuation.
