[PATCH 1/2] ath10k: add cryptmode param to support sw crypto and raw tx injection.

David Liu cfliu.tw at gmail.com
Mon Jun 1 12:44:03 PDT 2015


    This change supports bypassing HW crypto engine by enabling raw Rx/Tx mode.
    This will enable use cases such as sw crypto and raw tx injection.
    This change introduces a new module param 'cryptmode'.

    cryptmode:

       0    Use HW crypto engine. Use native WiFi mode Tx/Rx encap

       1    Use SW crypto engine. Use raw mode Tx/Rx encap

       2    Supports both SW & HW crypto engine. Use raw mode Tx/Rx encap.

    Testing: used QCA988x hw 2.0 with 10.2 firmware.

    ath10k
    cryptmode
    param      Testing Status
    -------    ---------------------------------
       0       HW CCMP/TKIP tested ok.
               Note: HW crypto bypass not supported by ath10k hw in native WiFi
               mode.

       1       - mac80211 SW crypto tested ok. (Req. mac80211 change)
               - raw Tx frame injection tested ok.

       2       HW CCMP/TKIP tested ok.
               - BSS 1 tested HW CCMP/TKIP ok.
               - BSS 2 can bypass HW engine.
                 - Tested mac80211 cam do SW crypto. (Req. mac80211 change)
                 - Tested raw Tx encrypted frame injection.
