Currently, in busy environments, ath10k logs "failed to flush transmit
queue" errors and have a spiking CPU usage, making the wireless barely
usable.
With this patch, taken from https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-wireless/patch/20250806070005.1429-1-hujy652@gmail.com/
this does not occur in normal operation and the wifi is much more stable

Subject: [RFC PATCH] wifi: ath10k: support flush_sta method
|
|
|
|
|
|
When a STA is marked as no longer authorized, if the driver doesn't
|
|
implement flush_sta(), mac80211 calls ieee80211_flush_queues() to
|
|
flush hardware queues to avoid sending unencrypted frames.
|
|
|
|
This has became a problem for ath10k because ieee80211_flush_queues()
|
|
will stop all traffic and call ath10k_flush, which waits until the
|
|
whole HW queue is empty. In a busy environment this will trigger a
|
|
timeout warning and stalls other STAs.
|
|
|
|
Fix this by implementing flush_sta method using WMI command to flush
|
|
frames of a specific STA.
|
|
Flushed frames will be marked as discard in tx complete indication.
|
|
|
|
ops->flush_sta will be set to NULL if htt.disable_tx_comp is set to
|
|
true.
|
|
|
|
