[ Upstream commit720e5c03e5] It is expected that the returned counters by .get_survey are monotonic increasing. But the data from ath10k gets reset to zero regularly. Channel active/busy time are then showing incorrect values (less than previous or sometimes zero) for the currently active channel during successive survey dump commands. example: $ iw dev wlan0 survey dump Survey data from wlan0 frequency: 5180 MHz [in use] channel active time: 54995 ms channel busy time: 432 ms channel receive time: 0 ms channel transmit time: 59 ms ... $ iw dev wlan0 survey dump Survey data from wlan0 frequency: 5180 MHz [in use] channel active time: 32592 ms channel busy time: 254 ms channel receive time: 0 ms channel transmit time: 0 ms ... The correct way to handle this is to use the non-clearing WMI_BSS_SURVEY_REQ_TYPE_READ wmi_bss_survey_req_type. The firmware will then accumulate the survey data and handle wrap arounds.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
