[ Upstream commit 720e5c03e5cb26d33d97f55192b791bb48478aa5 ]
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.
