From what I can tell, the VHT-160 AP can talk 4x4 @ 80Mhz to the peer in this case, but if peer is VHT-160, then of course it can only talk at 2x2.

From what I can tell, this feature is supposed to configure the rate-ctrl in the firmware to know that it can only send 1x1 or 2x2 when sending at 160Mhz, but that it can send at higher NSS if it sends at 80Mhz or lower. If a 2x2 peer connects to the AP, will it have peer_num_spatial_streams set to 2? If so, then your code will configure the peer_bw_rxnss_override to indicate it can send at 160Mhz 2x2 as well, right? And if so, then that is incorrect. Probably if you connected something like a IPQ4019 station to a 9984 AP configured for 160Mhz, the peer_bw_rxnss_override would be set to 2x2 instead of 1x1? >>> - if (arg->peer_vht_rates.rx_max_rate && >>> - (sta->vht_cap.cap & IEEE80211_VHT_CAP_SUPP_CHAN_WIDTH_MASK)) { >>> - switch (arg->peer_vht_rates.rx_max_rate) { >>> - case 1560: >>> - /* Must be 2x2 at 160Mhz is all it can do. */ >>> - arg->peer_bw_rxnss_override = 2; >>> - break; >>> - case 780: >>> - /* Can only do 1x1 at 160Mhz (Long Guard Interval) */ >>> - arg->peer_bw_rxnss_override = 1; >>> - break; >>> - } >> >> This old code does look wrong, the firmware is using zero-based, so override-0 == nss-1, override-1 == nss-2. > 0 = crash > > and 1 and 2 is wrong.

There is no standard way I know of for the peer to tell you specifically that it can only do 1x1 at 160Mhz and also 2x2 at 80Mhz in this case. That is why this rxnns_override exists, to hack around this problem. Your patch is going to break in this case as far as I can tell. Thanks, Ben

There > is no standard way I know of for the peer to tell you specifically > that it can only do > 1x1 at 160Mhz and also 2x2 at 80Mhz in this case. per specification the peer is able to provide max nss to the ap. the rx_nss property is calculated from the mcs rateset provided by the peer by mac80211. this is mcs set provided on on assoc is mandatory. so there is a way the peer can tell you what it supports and this is what is used. if a peer does not provide the mcs rateset (which i have seen for a single marvell client) the fallback mechanism will still work, but just with 1x1. the problem is anything else will crash the firmware. we have to deal with that. That is why this rxnns_override exists, to hack around this problem. i dont think so, because its not just a hack. without providing that parameter the firmware will crash. so its a always required parameter and not just a hack. for sure the firmware can handle it by itself, just someone at qca should start to work on it. but again. my implementation is correct from the information i have out of the qca propertiery wireless driver sources > > Your patch is going to break in this case as far as I can tell. no it isnt. my tests with various different clients from different vendors shows that its working. with 2x2 and 1x1. its all well detected by the code and configured as expected consider that this patch fixes a CRASH. accept that. it wont break. it repairs. > > Thanks, > Ben > >
