We observe intermittent ping failures from the access point (AP) to
station (STA) in any mode(AP-STA or Mesh) configured. Specifically,
the transmission completion status is not received at Tx completion
ring id-4(WBM2SW ring4) for the packets transmitted via TCL DATA
ring id-3. This prevents freeing up Tx descriptors and leads
to buffer exhaustion.
Currently, during initialization of the WBM2SW ring, we are directly
mapping the ring number to the ring mask to obtain the ring mask
group index. This approach is causing setup failures for WBM2SW
ring-4. Similarly, during runtime, when receiving incoming
transmission completion status, the validation of the ring number by
mapping the interrupted ring mask. This is resulting in
validation failure. Thereby preventing entry into the completion
handler(ath12k_dp_tx_completion_handler()).
The existing design assumed that the ring numbers would always be
sequential and could be directly mapped with the ring mask. However,
this assumption does not hold true for WBM2SW ring-4. Therefore,
modify the design such that, instead of mapping the ring number,
the ring ID is mapped with the ring mask.
According to this design:
1. During initialization of the WBM2SW ring, mapping the ring ID
to the ring mask will ensure obtaining the correct ring mask group
ID.
2. During runtime, validating the interrupted ring mask group ID
within the transmission completion group is sufficient. This
approach allows the ring ID to be derived from the interrupted ring
mask and enables entry into the completion handler.
