Channel groups used for Tx Attenuation calibration (MIMO tx channel balance) and thermal Txpower calibration.
When calculating txpower, driver must compensate for current device temperature; higher temperature requires higher gain. Driver must calculate current temperature (see "4965 temperature calculation"), then compare vs. factory calibration temperature in EEPROM; if current temperature is higher than factory temperature, driver must increase gain by proportions shown in table below. If current temperature is lower than factory, driver must decrease gain.
Different frequency ranges require different compensation, as shown below.
#define FH49_KW_MEM_ADDR_REG (FH49_MEM_LOWER_BOUND + 0x97C) |
Keep-Warm (KW) buffer base address.
Driver must allocate a 4KByte buffer that is used by 4965 for keeping the host DRAM powered on (via dummy accesses to DRAM) to maintain low-latency DRAM access when 4965 is Txing or Rxing. The dummy accesses prevent host from going into a power-savings mode that would cause higher DRAM latency, and possible data over/under-runs, before all Tx/Rx is complete.
Driver loads FH49_KW_MEM_ADDR_REG with the physical address (bits 35:4) of the buffer, which must be 4K aligned. Once this is set up, the 4965 automatically invokes keep-warm accesses when normal accesses might not be sufficient to maintain fast DRAM response.
Bit fields: 31-0: Keep-warm buffer physical base address [35:4], must be 4K aligned

TFD Circular Buffers Base (CBBC) addresses
4965 has 16 base pointer registers, one for each of 16 host-DRAM-resident circular buffers (CBs/queues) containing Transmit Frame Descriptors (TFDs) (see struct il_tfd_frame). These 16 pointer registers are offset by 0x04 bytes from one another. Each TFD circular buffer in DRAM must be 256-byte aligned (address bits 0-7 must be 0).
Bit fields in each pointer register: 27-0: TFD CB physical base address [35:8], must be 256-byte aligned

Rx Config/Status Registers (RCSR) Rx Config Reg for channel 0 (only channel used)
Driver must initialize FH49_MEM_RCSR_CHNL0_CONFIG_REG as follows for normal operation (see bit fields).
Clearing FH49_MEM_RCSR_CHNL0_CONFIG_REG to 0 turns off Rx DMA. Driver should poll FH49_MEM_RSSR_RX_STATUS_REG for FH49_RSSR_CHNL0_RX_STATUS_CHNL_IDLE (bit 24) before continuing.

Rx SRAM Control and Status Registers (RSCSR)
These registers provide handshake between driver and 4965 for the Rx queue (this queue handles all command responses, notifications, Rx data, etc. sent from 4965 uCode to host driver). Unlike Tx, there is only one Rx queue, and only one Rx DMA/FIFO channel. Also unlike Tx, which can concatenate up to 20 DRAM buffers to form a Tx frame, each Receive Buffer Descriptor (RBD) points to only one Rx Buffer (RB); there is a 1:1 mapping between RBDs and RBs.
Driver must allocate host DRAM memory for the following, and set the physical address of each into 4965 registers:
1) Receive Buffer Descriptor (RBD) circular buffer (CB), typically with 256 entries (although any power of 2, up to 4096, is selectable by driver). Each entry (1 dword) points to a receive buffer (RB) of consistent size (typically 4K, although 8K or 16K are also selectable by driver). Driver sets up RB size and number of RBDs in the CB via Rx config register FH49_MEM_RCSR_CHNL0_CONFIG_REG.
Bit fields within one RBD: 27-0: Receive Buffer physical address bits [35:8], 256-byte aligned
Driver sets physical address [35:8] of base of RBD circular buffer into FH49_RSCSR_CHNL0_RBDCB_BASE_REG [27:0].
2) Rx status buffer, 8 bytes, in which 4965 indicates which Rx Buffers (RBs) have been filled, via a "write pointer", actually the idx of the RB's corresponding RBD within the circular buffer. Driver sets physical address [35:4] into FH49_RSCSR_CHNL0_STTS_WPTR_REG [31:0].
Bit fields in lower dword of Rx status buffer (upper dword not used by driver; see struct il4965_shared, val0): 31-12: Not used by driver 11- 0: Index of last filled Rx buffer descriptor (4965 writes, driver reads this value)
As the driver prepares Receive Buffers (RBs) for 4965 to fill, driver must enter pointers to these RBs into contiguous RBD circular buffer entries, and update the 4965's "write" idx register, FH49_RSCSR_CHNL0_RBDCB_WPTR_REG.
This "write" idx corresponds to the next RBD that the driver will make available, i.e. one RBD past the tail of the ready-to-fill RBDs within the circular buffer. This value should initially be 0 (before preparing any RBs), should be 8 after preparing the first 8 RBs (for example), and must wrap back to 0 at the end of the circular buffer (but don't wrap before "read" idx has advanced past 1! See below). NOTE: 4965 EXPECTS THE WRITE IDX TO BE INCREMENTED IN MULTIPLES OF 8.
As the 4965 fills RBs (referenced from contiguous RBDs within the circular buffer), it updates the Rx status buffer in host DRAM, 2) described above, to tell the driver the idx of the latest filled RBD. The driver must read this "read" idx from DRAM after receiving an Rx interrupt from 4965.
The driver must also internally keep track of a third idx, which is the next RBD to process. When receiving an Rx interrupt, driver should process all filled but unprocessed RBs up to, but not including, the RB corresponding to the "read" idx. For example, if "read" idx becomes "1", driver may process the RB pointed to by RBD 0. Depending on volume of traffic, there may be many RBs to process.
If read idx == write idx, 4965 thinks there is no room to put new data. Due to this, the maximum number of filled RBs is 255, instead of 256. To be safe, make sure that there is a gap of at least 2 RBDs between "write" and "read" idxes; that is, make sure that there are no more than 254 buffers waiting to be filled.

Rx Shared Status Registers (RSSR)

Transmit DMA Channel Control/Status Registers (TCSR)
4965 has one configuration register for each of 8 Tx DMA/FIFO channels supported in hardware (don't confuse these with the 16 Tx queues in DRAM, which feed the DMA/FIFO channels); config regs are separated by 0x20 bytes.
To use a Tx DMA channel, driver must initialize its FH49_TCSR_CHNL_TX_CONFIG_REG(chnl) with:
FH49_TCSR_TX_CONFIG_REG_VAL_DMA_CHNL_ENABLE | FH49_TCSR_TX_CONFIG_REG_VAL_DMA_CREDIT_ENABLE_VAL
All other bits should be 0.

Tx Shared Status Registers (TSSR)
After stopping Tx DMA channel (writing 0 to FH49_TCSR_CHNL_TX_CONFIG_REG(chnl)), driver must poll FH49_TSSR_TX_STATUS_REG until selected Tx channel is idle (channel's buffers empty | no pending requests).

Tx/Rx Queues
Most communication between driver and 4965 is via queues of data buffers. For example, all commands that the driver issues to device's embedded controller (uCode) are via the command queue (one of the Tx queues). All uCode command responses/replies/notifications, including Rx frames, are conveyed from uCode to driver via the Rx queue.
Most support for these queues, including handshake support, resides in structures in host DRAM, shared between the driver and the device. When allocating this memory, the driver must make sure that data written by the host CPU updates DRAM immediately (and does not get "stuck" in CPU's cache memory), so DRAM and cache are consistent, and the device can immediately see changes made by the driver.
4965 supports up to 16 DRAM-based Tx queues, and services these queues via up to 7 DMA channels (FIFOs). Each Tx queue is supported by a circular array in DRAM containing 256 Transmit Frame Descriptors (TFDs).

#define IL_TX_POWER_CCK_COMPENSATION_B_STEP (9) |
CCK gain compensation.
When calculating txpowers for CCK, after making sure that the target power is within regulatory and saturation limits, driver must additionally back off gain by adding these values to the gain table idx.
Hardware rev for 4965 can be determined by reading CSR_HW_REV_WA_REG, bits [3:2], 1 = B, 2 = C.

Regulatory limits refer to the maximum average txpower allowed by regulatory agencies in the geographies in which the device is meant to be operated. These limits are SKU-specific (i.e. geography-specific), and channel-specific; each channel has an individual regulatory limit listed in the EEPROM.
Units are in half-dBm (i.e. "34" means 17 dBm).
#define IL_TX_POWER_DEFAULT_SATURATION_24 (38) |
Sanity checks and default values for EEPROM saturation levels. If EEPROM values fall outside MIN/MAX range, use default values.
Saturation is the highest level that the output power amplifier can produce without significant clipping distortion. This is a "peak" power level. Different types of modulation (i.e. various "rates", and OFDM vs. CCK) require differing amounts of backoff, relative to their average power output, in order to avoid clipping distortion.
Driver must make sure that it is violating neither the saturation limit, nor the regulatory limit, when calculating Tx power settings for various rates.
Units are in half-dBm (i.e. "38" means 19 dBm).
#define IL_TX_POWER_MIMO_REGULATORY_COMPENSATION (6) |
4965 txpower calculations rely on information from three sources:
1) EEPROM 2) "initialize" alive notification 3) stats notifications
EEPROM data consists of:
1) Regulatory information (max txpower and channel usage flags) is provided separately for each channel that can possibly supported by 4965. 40 MHz wide (.11n HT40) channels are listed separately from 20 MHz (legacy) channels.
See struct il4965_eeprom_channel for format, and struct il4965_eeprom for locations in EEPROM.
2) Factory txpower calibration information is provided separately for sub-bands of contiguous channels. 2.4GHz has just one sub-band, but 5 GHz has several sub-bands.
In addition, per-band (2.4 and 5 Ghz) saturation txpowers are provided.
See struct il4965_eeprom_calib_info (and the tree of structures contained within it) for format, and struct il4965_eeprom for locations in EEPROM.
"Initialization alive" notification (see struct il4965_init_alive_resp) consists of:
1) Temperature calculation parameters.
2) Power supply voltage measurement.
3) Tx gain compensation to balance 2 transmitters for MIMO use.
Statistics notifications deliver:
1) Current values for temperature param R4. To calculate a txpower setting for a given desired target txpower, channel, modulation bit rate, and transmitter chain (4965 has 2 transmitters to support MIMO and transmit diversity), driver must do the following:
1) Compare desired txpower vs. (EEPROM) regulatory limit for this channel. Do not exceed regulatory limit; reduce target txpower if necessary.
If setting up txpowers for MIMO rates (rate idxes 8-15, 24-31), 2 transmitters will be used simultaneously; driver must reduce the regulatory limit by 3 dB (half-power) for each transmitter, so the combined total output of the 2 transmitters is within regulatory limits.
2) Compare target txpower vs. (EEPROM) saturation txpower reduced by backoff for this bit rate. Do not exceed (saturation - backoff[rate]); reduce target txpower if necessary.
Backoff values below are in 1/2 dB units (equivalent to steps in txpower gain tables):
OFDM 6 - 36 MBit: 10 steps (5 dB) OFDM 48 MBit: 15 steps (7.5 dB) OFDM 54 MBit: 17 steps (8.5 dB) OFDM 60 MBit: 20 steps (10 dB) CCK all rates: 10 steps (5 dB)
Backoff values apply to saturation txpower on a per-transmitter basis; when using MIMO (2 transmitters), each transmitter uses the same saturation level provided in EEPROM, and the same backoff values; no reduction (such as with regulatory txpower limits) is required.
Saturation and Backoff values apply equally to 20 Mhz (legacy) channel widths and 40 Mhz (.11n HT40) channel widths; there is no separate factory measurement for ht40 channels.
The result of this step is the final target txpower. The rest of the steps figure out the proper settings for the device to achieve that target txpower.
3) Determine (EEPROM) calibration sub band for the target channel, by comparing against first and last channels in each sub band (see struct il4965_eeprom_calib_subband_info).
4) Linearly interpolate (EEPROM) factory calibration measurement sets, referencing the 2 factory-measured (sample) channels within the sub band.
Interpolation is based on difference between target channel's frequency and the sample channels' frequencies. Since channel numbers are based on frequency (5 MHz between each channel number), this is equivalent to interpolating based on channel number differences.
Note that the sample channels may or may not be the channels at the edges of the sub band. The target channel may be "outside" of the span of the sampled channels.
Driver may choose the pair (for 2 Tx chains) of measurements (see struct il4965_eeprom_calib_ch_info) for which the actual measured txpower comes closest to the desired txpower. Usually, though, the middle set of measurements is closest to the regulatory limits, and is therefore a good choice for all txpower calculations (this assumes that high accuracy is needed for maximizing legal txpower, while lower txpower configurations do not need as much accuracy).
Driver should interpolate both members of the chosen measurement pair, i.e. for both Tx chains (radio transmitters), unless the driver knows that only one of the chains will be used (e.g. only one tx antenna connected, but this should be unusual). The rate scaling algorithm switches antennas to find best performance, so both Tx chains will be used (although only one at a time) even for non-MIMO transmissions.
Driver should interpolate factory values for temperature, gain table idx, and actual power. The power amplifier detector values are not used by the driver.
Sanity check: If the target channel happens to be one of the sample channels, the results should agree with the sample channel's measurements!
5) Find difference between desired txpower and (interpolated) factory-measured txpower. Using (interpolated) factory gain table idx (shown elsewhere) as a starting point, adjust this idx lower to increase txpower, or higher to decrease txpower, until the target txpower is reached. Each step in the gain table is 1/2 dB.
For example, if factory measured txpower is 16 dBm, and target txpower is 13 dBm, add 6 steps to the factory gain idx to reduce txpower by 3 dB.
6) Find difference between current device temperature and (interpolated) factory-measured temperature for sub-band. Factory values are in degrees Celsius. To calculate current temperature, see comments for "4965 temperature calculation".
If current temperature is higher than factory temperature, driver must increase gain (lower gain table idx), and vice verse.
Temperature affects gain differently for different channels:
2.4 GHz all channels: 3.5 degrees per half-dB step 5 GHz channels 34-43: 4.5 degrees per half-dB step 5 GHz channels >= 44: 4.0 degrees per half-dB step
NOTE: Temperature can increase rapidly when transmitting, especially with heavy traffic at high txpowers. Driver should update temperature calculations often under these conditions to maintain strong txpower in the face of rising temperature.
7) Find difference between current power supply voltage indicator (from "initialize alive") and factory-measured power supply voltage indicator (EEPROM).
If the current voltage is higher (indicator is lower) than factory voltage, gain should be reduced (gain table idx increased) by:
(eeprom - current) / 7
If the current voltage is lower (indicator is higher) than factory voltage, gain should be increased (gain table idx decreased) by:
2 * (current - eeprom) / 7
If number of idx steps in either direction turns out to be > 2, something is wrong ... just use 0.
NOTE: Voltage compensation is independent of band/channel.
NOTE: "Initialize" uCode measures current voltage, which is assumed to be constant after this initial measurement. Voltage compensation for txpower (number of steps in gain table) may be calculated once and used until the next uCode bootload.
8) If setting up txpowers for MIMO rates (rate idxes 8-15, 24-31), adjust txpower for each transmitter chain, so txpower is balanced between the two chains. There are 5 pairs of tx_atten[group][chain] values in "initialize alive", one pair for each of 5 channel ranges:
Group 0: 5 GHz channel 34-43 Group 1: 5 GHz channel 44-70 Group 2: 5 GHz channel 71-124 Group 3: 5 GHz channel 125-200 Group 4: 2.4 GHz all channels
Add the tx_atten[group][chain] value to the idx for the target chain. The values are signed, but are in pairs of 0 and a non-negative number, so as to reduce gain (if necessary) of the "hotter" channel. This avoids any need to double-check for regulatory compliance after this step.
9) If setting up for a CCK rate, lower the gain by adding a CCK compensation value to the idx:
Hardware rev B: 9 steps (4.5 dB) Hardware rev C: 5 steps (2.5 dB)
Hardware rev for 4965 can be determined by reading CSR_HW_REV_WA_REG, bits [3:2], 1 = B, 2 = C.
NOTE: This compensation is in addition to any saturation backoff that might have been applied in an earlier step.
10) Select the gain table, based on band (2.4 vs 5 GHz).
Limit the adjusted idx to stay within the table!
11) Read gain table entries for DSP and radio gain, place into appropriate location(s) in command (struct il4965_txpowertable_cmd). When MIMO is used (2 transmitters operating simultaneously), driver should limit each transmitter to deliver a max of 3 dB below the regulatory limit for the device. That is, use half power for each transmitter, so total txpower is within regulatory limits.
The value "6" represents number of steps in gain table to reduce power 3 dB. Each step is 1/2 dB.
#define IL_TX_POWER_TEMPERATURE_OUT_OF_RANGE | ( | t | ) |
Gain tables.
The following tables contain pair of values for setting txpower, i.e. gain settings for the output of the device's digital signal processor (DSP), and for the analog gain structure of the transmitter.
Each entry in the gain tables represents a step of 1/2 dB. Note that these are relative steps, not indications of absolute output power. Output power varies with temperature, voltage, and channel frequency, and also requires consideration of average power (to satisfy regulatory constraints), and peak power (to avoid distortion of the output signal).
Each entry contains two values: 1) DSP gain (or sometimes called DSP attenuation). This is a fine-grained linear value that multiplies the output of the digital signal processor, before being sent to the analog radio. 2) Radio gain. This sets the analog gain of the radio Tx path. It is a coarser setting, and behaves in a logarithmic (dB) fashion.
EEPROM contains factory calibration data for txpower. This maps actual measured txpower levels to gain settings in the "well known" tables below ("well-known" means here that both factory calibration and the driver work with the same table).
There are separate tables for 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. The 5 GHz table has an extension (into negative idxes), in case the driver needs to boost power setting for high device temperatures (higher than would be present during factory calibration). A 5 Ghz EEPROM idx of "40" corresponds to the 49th entry in the table used by the driver.
#define TEMPERATURE_CALIB_KELVIN_OFFSET 8 |
4965 temperature calculation.
The driver must calculate the device temperature before calculating a txpower setting (amplifier gain is temperature dependent). The calculation uses 4 measurements, 3 of which (R1, R2, R3) are calibration values used for the life of the driver, and one of which (R4) is the real-time temperature indicator.
uCode provides all 4 values to the driver via the "initialize alive" notification (see struct il4965_init_alive_resp). After the runtime uCode image loads, uCode updates the R4 value via stats notifications (see N_STATS), which occur after each received beacon when associated, or can be requested via C_STATS.
NOTE: uCode provides the R4 value as a 23-bit signed value. Driver must sign-extend to 32 bits before applying formula below.
Formula:
degrees Kelvin = ((97 * 259 * (R4 - R2) / (R3 - R1)) / 100) + 8
NOTE: The basic formula is 259 * (R4-R2) / (R3-R1). The 97/100 is an additional correction, which should be centered around 0 degrees Celsius (273 degrees Kelvin). The 8 (3 percent of 273) compensates for centering the 97/100 correction around 0 degrees K.
Add 273 to Kelvin value to find degrees Celsius, for comparing current temperature with factory-measured temperatures when calculating txpower settings.
