[PATCH] wifi: rtw89: Print only once for unsupported c2h classes

[Sean Anderson]

There are more unsupported functions than just LOWRT_RTY. Improve on
commit 3b66519b023b ("wifi: rtw89: phy: add dummy c2h handler to avoid
warning message") by printing a message just once when we first
encounter an unsupported class. This prevents messages like

rtw89_8922ae 0000:81:00.0: PHY c2h class 2 not support

from filling up dmesg.

I also get "MAC c2h class 1 func 3 not support" and "MAC c2h class
0 func 6 not support" with RTL8832CU.

The second one appears a lot in AP mode.

[PATCH v2] wifi: rtw89: Print just once for unknown C2H classes

[Sean Anderson]

There are more unsupported functions than just LOWRT_RTY. Improve on
commit 3b66519b023b ("wifi: rtw89: phy: add dummy c2h handler to avoid
warning message") by printing a message just once when we first
encounter an unsupported class. Do the same for each unsupported func of
the supported classes. This prevents messages like

rtw89_8922ae 0000:81:00.0: PHY c2h class 2 not support

from filling up dmesg.

Changes in v2:
- Also suppress unsupported func messages

Once I encounter an unsupported class/func, I'll check firmware team if the
C2H events can be ignored. If so, I add a dummy function to avoid the message.
If not, I should add code to handle the event. 

Do you want to see the message even though it only appears once?

I mean, maybe it should just be a debug? Are these messages useful for anyone
other than the developers?

Maybe we should just print only the very first unsupported message at info level
and print the rest at debug.

Yes, this could just be a debug. However, developers normally don't turn on
debug mask, so using rtw89_info is to clearly remind developers to pay
attention on this lack of C2H handler. And, I suppose developers must handle
this when they see flooding messages.

I'm afraid developers will ignore or miss the messages. To reduce messages
is fine to me , but more important is to look up vendor driver to see if
the C2H handler is necessary.

Well, regular users get this too. It is really unnecessary to print
thousands of messages when they are completely benign.

OK, so we should print exactly once for each class/func.

I sent a patchset [1] to print exactly once, but I don't add bitmap for every
printed class/func, because it seems to be unnecessary to add much code to 
handle the case which should be handled during development. 

Please help to try if this patchset can resolve thousands of message in your
side.

Is this a real example? We have handled class 2 (RTW89_PHY_C2H_CLASS_DM), no?

Please point out the class / func you encountered. Then I can look up vendor
driver or contact internal firmware team to know if we should implement or
just add a dummy function.

If we defer it, I don't know when we can do it.

This is a real example.

If func != RTW89_PHY_C2H_DM_FUNC_LOWRT_RTY then we fall through to the
default case.

rtw89_8922ae 0000:81:00.0: PHY c2h class 2 func 12 not supported

But the func was not printed in the base kernel, just the class.

The C2H event handler has been added by [1].

OK, but func 12 is still not handled by that commit.

These two C2H events were defined as: 

// CLASS 1 - FW_OFLD
#define FWCMD_C2H_FUNC_BEACON_RESEND 0x3

// CLASS 0 - FW_INFO
#define FWCMD_C2H_FUNC_BCN_UPD_DONE 0x06

The implementation of handlers in vendor driver looks like does nothing
needed to be rewritten. Just add a dummy to represent that we have reviewed
the C2H events.

I added two dummy functions for these to C2H events by [1].
