From: Sebastian Gottschall <s.gottschall@xxxxxxxxxx>
current handling of peer_bw_rxnss_override parameter is based on
guessing the VHT160/8080 capability by rx rate. this is wrong and may
lead
to a non initialized peer_bw_rxnss_override parameter which is
required since VHT160 operation mode only supports 2x2 chainmasks in
addition the original code
initialized the parameter with wrong masked values.
This patch uses the peer phymode and peer nss information for correct
initialisation of the peer_bw_rxnss_override parameter.
if this peer information is not available, we initialize the
parameter by minimum nss which is suggested by QCA as temporary
workaround according
to the QCA sourcecodes.

v2: remove debug messages
v3: apply some cosmetics, update documentation
v4: fix compile warning and truncate nss to maximum of 2x2 since
current chipsets only support 2x2 at vht160

Check for the 80+80 or 160 instead of num-spatial-streams, if if
something has
nss == 0, then act like it is 1 instead since it is obviously
configured incorrect.
this check is bellow. see the switch statement for the VHT160, 80_80 case.
if nss 0, it must fail here since we cannot handle nss = 0, in that case
just bit 31 is masked
+ int nss160 = arg->peer_num_spatial_streams;
I think this line should be:
int nss160 = arg->peer_num_spatial_streams / 2;
no. makes no sense. 2 would get 1 and 1 turns to zero. makes no sense
read the macro BW_NSS_FWCONF_160 first. it already does nss160-1
this would lead to -1 if spatial_streams is 1
if (nss160 == 0) { nss160 = 1; } /* deal with
mis-configured nss */
no
if peer_num_spatial_stream is 0 (so nss160 too), the code is not
triggered. but another code. same as above

MODE_11AC_VHT80_80 || arg->peer_phymode == MODE_11AC_VHT160)) {

If you have a 4019 client, it will have arg->peer_num_spatial_streams
== 2, but
it can only do 1x1 at 160Mhz.
peer_num_spatial_streams is calculated from mcs rate set. so why should
4019 announce 2x2 if it just can to 1x1.
have you checked the mcs set at assoc management frame?

From looking at firmware, it will just ignore the bits it does not
need, so you do not need
to special case adding the 80_80 fields, you can do more like my patch
and just always add
those bits.
i'm following the reference code. in case 80_80 only is configure vht160
nd 80_80 must be masked. for everything else vht160 only must be masked.
thats the meaning. there are 2 override masks. independend for vht160
and 80_80. for sure i can do always both, but the reference code does not
and who knows what else changed in the firmware. consider that the crash
bug first occured on 3.5.3. your CT codebase is older as far as i know

Init nss160 outside of the if loop to 1 and you don't need this logic
either. If something can do 160Mhz,
then we must assume it can do at least 1x1 tx/rx.
for sure i can mask it always to bit 31 if vht80_80 and/or vht160 is
set, yes. makes no difference
