[PATCH 00/14] rtlwifi: remove duplicate C2H handlers

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Ping-Ke Shih <pkshih@xxxxxxxxxxx>

The goal of patch 1/14 and 2/14 is to use keep-alive mechanism in mac80211
stack that needs accurate TX ack status for null frame reported by firmware
through C2H.
The remaining patches are step by step to remove duplicate C2H handlers
that widely distributed in IC specific files. An example of calling flow
before this patchset is:
	_rtl_pci_rx_interrupt() -> 
	rtlpriv->cfg->ops->rx_command_packet() =
		rtl8723be_rx_command_packet() -->
	rtl8723be_c2h_packet_handler() -->
		case 1: rtl_c2hcmd_enqueue()
		case 2: rtl8723be_c2h_content_parsing()

	if case 1:
	rtl_c2hcmd_launcher() ->
	rtlpriv->cfg->ops->c2h_content_parsing() =
		rtl8723be_c2h_content_parsing()

This patchset remove two ops:
	rtlpriv->cfg->ops->rx_command_packet()
	rtlpriv->cfg->ops->c2h_content_parsing()

But a special C2H is still existing, so add one op for RA report:
	rtlpriv->cfg->ops->c2h_ra_report_handler()

Finally, calling flow becomes:
	_rtl_pci_rx_interrupt() -->
	rtl_c2hcmd_enqueue() -->
		case 1: enqueue
		case 2: rtl_c2h_content_parsing() if fast_cmd
	
	if case 1:
	rtl_c2hcmd_launcher() ->
	rtl_c2h_content_parsing() ->
	hal_ops->c2h_ra_report_handler() =
		rtl8821ae_c2h_ra_report_handler() if C2H_RA_RPT
