ath9k: perform ANI cycle in idle state
As of now the ANI cycle is executed only when the chip is awake. On idle state case, the station wakes up from network sleep for beacon reception. Since most of the time, ANI cycle is not syncing with beacon wakeup, ANI cycle is ignored. Approx 5 mins once, the calibration is performed. This could affect the connection stability when the station is idle for long. Even though the OFDM and CCK phy error rates are too high, ANI is unable to tune its immunity level as quick enough due to rare execution. Here the experiment shows that OFDM and CCK levels are at default even on higher phy error rate. listenTime=44 OFDM:3 errs=121977/s CCK:2 errs=440818/s ofdm_turn=1 This change ensures that ANI calibration will be exectued atleast once for every 10 seconds. The below result shows improvements and immunity levels are adopted quick enough. listenTime=557 OFDM:4 errs=752/s CCK:4 errs=125/s ofdm_turn=0 Signed-off-by: Rajkumar Manoharan <rmanohar@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
