ath10k: enable Adaptive Noise Immunity (ANI) by default
ANI helps to improve connectvity and performance in a noisy environment.
Enabling this feature would help the user experience a better and stable
wireless connection in a noisy environmnet. This feature is currently not

ath10k: move driver state check before setting throttle
Since thermal daemon is unaware of the device state, it might
try to adjust the throttle state when the device is powered down.
So the driver caches the value and will configure it while
powering up the target. The cached value will be programed later
once the device is brought up. In such case, returning error
status is confusing and misleading the user application. Hence
moving the driver state check before sending wmi command to target.

By default rts protection is enabled in firmware for the second

retries), when legacy stations are associated or asked by mac80211.

ath10k: protect driver from unsolicited htc ep0 events
Some firmware revisions (tested with qca6174

garbled) HTC ep0 event to host in some cases.
This issue was mainly observed with both qca988x
and qca6174 being installed on a single host
system. During driver probing if qca6174 booting
sequences were somehow deferred (e.g. by qca988x
implicitly making some resources busy presumably)
the unsolicited event would came around 1s after
ATH10K_HTC_MSG_READY_ID was delivered to host for
qca6174.
The unsolicited event would confuse driver and

iwlwifi: mvm: add the cause of the firmware dump in the dump
Now that the firmware dump can be triggered by events in
the code and not only the user or an firmware ASSERT, we
need a way to know why the firmware dump was triggered.
Add a section in the dump file for that.
iwlwifi: mvm: add framework for triggers for fw dump
Most of the time, the issues we want to debug with the
firmware dump mechanism are transient. It is then very
hard to stop the recording on time and get meaningful
data.
In order to solve this, I add here an infrastucture
of triggers. The user will supply a list of triggers
that will start / stop the recording. We have two types
of triggers: start and stop. Start triggers can start a
specific configuration. The stop triggers will be able to
kick the collection of the data with the currently running
configuration. These triggers are given to the driver by
the .ucode file - just like the configuration.
In the next patches, I'll add triggers in the code.
