[PATCH RFC v2 0/8] wifi: ath11k: hibernation support

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

 



From: Kalle Valo <quic_kvalo@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Currently in ath11k we keep the firmware running on the WLAN device when the
network interface (wlan0) is down. The problem is that this will break
hibernation, obviously the firmware can't be running after the whole system is
powered off. To power down the ath11k firmware for suspend/hibernation some
changes both in MHI subsystem and ath11k is needed.

This patchset fixes a longstanding bug report about broken hibernation support:

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=214649

This patchset is marked as RFC as it requires changes in MHI subsystem. Also
this has been tested only on WCN6855, need to test also on more AP based
chipsets like IPQ8074 and QCN9074.

The patches are also available at:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvalo/ath.git/log/?h=ath11k-hibernation-support

Earlier versions of this patchset have been tested by multiple users with
positive results.

v2:

* rebase to ath-202311221826 (6.7.0-rc2-wt-ath+)

* 'bus: mhi: host: add mhi_power_down_no_destroy()': fix null state string for
   DEV_ST_TRANSITION_DISABLE_DESTROY_DEVICE

* 'bus: mhi: host: add new interfaces to handle MHI channels
  directly': fix typos in comments

* 'bus: mhi: host: add new interfaces to handle MHI channels directly': honour
   initial autoqueue configuration

* 'bus: mhi: host: add new interfaces to handle MHI channels
   directly': don't prepare/unprepare MHI devices that don't match
   with a MHI client driver

* 'wifi: ath11k: remove MHI LOOPBACK channels': remove LOOPBACK channels for QCN9074 as well
