The sk_pacing_shift is 8 in mac80211, this is based on test with 11N WiFi chips with ath9k. For QCA6174/QCA9377 PCI 11AC chips, the 11AC VHT80 TCP UL throughput testing result shows 6 is the optimal. Overwrite the sk_pacing_shift to 6 in ath10k driver for QCA6174/9377 PCI. Tested with QCA6174 PCI with firmware WLAN.RM.4.4.1-00109-QCARMSWPZ-1, but this will also affect QCA9377 PCI. It's not a regression with new firmware releases. There have 2 test result of different settings: ARM CPU based device with QCA6174A PCI with different sk_pacing_shift: sk_pacing_shift throughput(Mbps) CPU utilization 6 500(-P5) ~75% idle, Focus on CPU1: ~14%idle 7 454(-P5) ~80% idle, Focus on CPU1: ~4%idle 8 288 ~90% idle, Focus on CPU1: ~35%idle 9 ~200 ~92% idle, Focus on CPU1: ~50%idle 5G TCP UL VTH80 on X86 platform with QCA6174A PCI with sk_packing_shift set to 6: tcp_limit_output_bytes throughput(Mbps) default(262144)+1 Stream 336 default(262144)+2 Streams 558 default(262144)+3 Streams 584 default(262144)+4 Streams 602 default(262144)+5 Streams 598 changed(2621440)+1 Stream 598 changed(2621440)+2 Streams 601 Signed-off-by: Wen Gong --- V2: -add the optimal for configurable for each hardware type drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/core.c | 6 ++++++ drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/hw.h | 6 ++++++ drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/mac.c | 3 +++ 3 files changed, 15 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/core.c b/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/core.c index 85c58eb..fbd13ec 100644 --- a/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/core.c +++ b/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/core.c @@ -189,6 +189,7 @@ .per_ce_irq = false, .shadow_reg_support = false, .rri_on_ddr = false, + .tx_sk_pacing_shift = SK_PACING_SHIFT_6174, }, { .id = QCA6174_HW_2_1_VERSION, @@ -221,6 +222,7 @@ .per_ce_irq = false, .shadow_reg_support = false, .rri_on_ddr = false, + .tx_sk_pacing_shift = SK_PACING_SHIFT_6174, }, { .id = QCA6174_HW_3_0_VERSION, @@ -253,6 +255,7 @@ .per_ce_irq = false, .shadow_reg_support = false, .rri_on_ddr = false, + .tx_sk_pacing_shift = SK_PACING_SHIFT_6174, }, { .id = QCA6174_HW_3_2_VERSION, @@ -288,6 +291,7 @@ .per_ce_irq = false, .shadow_reg_support = false, .rri_on_ddr = false, + .tx_sk_pacing_shift = SK_PACING_SHIFT_6174, }, { .id = QCA99X0_HW_2_0_DEV_VERSION, @@ -443,6 +447,7 @@ .per_ce_irq = false, .shadow_reg_support = false, .rri_on_ddr = false, + .tx_sk_pacing_shift = SK_PACING_SHIFT_9377, }, { .id = QCA9377_HW_1_1_DEV_VERSION, @@ -477,6 +482,7 @@ .per_ce_irq = false, .shadow_reg_support = false, .rri_on_ddr = false, + .tx_sk_pacing_shift = SK_PACING_SHIFT_9377, }, { .id = QCA4019_HW_1_0_DEV_VERSION, diff --git a/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/hw.h b/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/hw.h index a274bd8..1f956d6 100644 --- a/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/hw.h +++ b/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/hw.h @@ -161,6 +161,9 @@ enum qca9377_chip_id_rev { #define REG_DUMP_COUNT_QCA988X 60 +#define SK_PACING_SHIFT_6174 6 +#define SK_PACING_SHIFT_9377 6 + struct ath10k_fw_ie { __le32 id; __le32 len; @@ -589,6 +592,9 @@ struct ath10k_hw_params { /* Number of bytes to be the offset for each FFT sample */ int spectral_bin_offset; + + /* Number of shift to override the default value of ieee80211_hw*/ + u8 tx_sk_pacing_shift; }; struct htt_rx_desc; diff --git a/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/mac.c b/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/mac.c index 95243b4..4f2c07f 100644 --- a/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/mac.c +++ b/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/mac.c @@ -8361,6 +8361,9 @@ int ath10k_mac_register(struct ath10k *ar) ar->hw->wiphy->max_scan_ssids = WLAN_SCAN_PARAMS_MAX_SSID; ar->hw->wiphy->max_scan_ie_len = WLAN_SCAN_PARAMS_MAX_IE_LEN; + if (ar->hw_params.tx_sk_pacing_shift != 0) + ar->hw->tx_sk_pacing_shift = ar->hw_params.tx_sk_pacing_shift; + ar->hw->vif_data_size = sizeof(struct ath10k_vif); ar->hw->sta_data_size = sizeof(struct ath10k_sta); ar->hw->txq_data_size = sizeof(struct ath10k_txq);
