[0/3] wcn36xx: Firmware link monitor/keepalive offload

Message

Bryan O'Donoghue Oct. 31, 2020, 2:23 a.m. UTC

This patchset enables various firmware offload features for

- Link keepalive
- Link monitoring

Keepalive is a necessary precursor for an upcoming series on
wake on wlan, since we need to inform the firmware to keep the link up in
suspend.

Testing shows that LINK_FAIL_TX_CNT is a link monitor enable field. Once
set to non-zero link monitoring becomes active. This series activates
CONNECTION_MONITOR after enabling LINK_FAIL_TX_CNT thus offloading link
monitoring to the firmware.

  wcn36xx: Set LINK_FAIL_TX_CNT non zero on wcn3620/wcn3660
  wcn36xx: Enable firmware link monitoring
  wcn36xx: Enable firmware offloaded keepalive
