Nowadays, the tfd queue max size is 2^8, and the reserved size in the command header sequence field for the tfd entry index is 8 bits, allowing an injective function from the hw pointers to the tfd entry index in the sequence field. In 22560 devices the tfd queue max size is 2^16, meaning that the hw pointers are 16 bit long (allowing to point to each entry in the tfd queue). However, the reserved space in the sequence field for the tfd entry doesn't change, and we are limited to 8 bit. This requires cancelling the injective function from hw pointer to tfd entry in the sequence number. Use iwl_pcie_get_cmd_index to wrap the hw pointer's to the n_window size, which is maximum 256 in tx queues, and so, keep the injective function between the window wrapped hw pointers to tfd entry index in the sequence.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
