[PATCH ath-next 0/5] wifi: ath11k: WMI services debugfs and HE AP fixes
From: Andrei-Alexandru Bleortu
Date: Sun Oct 04 2026 - 07:18:29 EST
A debugfs file listing the firmware's WMI services, and fixes for an
ath11k HE AP found by checking it against IEEE Std 802.11-2024, each
tested on a QCN9074:
1. debugfs: wmi_services lists the services the firmware advertises.
Earlier posted in the airtime fairness series, now split by tree;
since v2 the commit message no longer claims to match ath10k's
output.
2. Probe Responses during a channel switch carried the initial count:
ath11k never counted down mac80211's CSA counter (as ath12k does).
3. Without spatial reuse parameters, an AP enabled non-SRG OBSS PD at
-62 dBm; it now stays off, as in ath12k.
4. A 6 GHz AP never sent its per-20 MHz power limits to firmware (the
TPC command was station only); it now does as an LPI AP, as in
ath12k.
5. The hardware DSCP-TID tables used the class selector bits, while
cfg80211 maps DSCP to UP per RFC 8325 section 4; checked on air
through the firmware's per-TID peer statistics (CS1->1, AF21->3,
EF->6, CS6->7).
None of them depends on the mac80211 series sent alongside.
The patches by me were written with an AI coding assistant (Claude
Code), which also drafted the changelogs; the testing described was done
on the hardware.

Andrei-Alexandru Bleortu (5):
wifi: ath11k: add a debugfs file listing the firmware WMI services
wifi: ath11k: count down channel switch announcements in mac80211
wifi: ath11k: leave OBSS PD off when spatial reuse is not configured
wifi: ath11k: set the 6 GHz transmit power limits of an AP
wifi: ath11k: map DSCP to TID as cfg80211 does by default
