mwifiex: fix setting of multicast filter

2013-05-19T17:04:42+00:00

commit ccd384b10420ac81ba3fb9b0a7d18272c7173552 upstream.

A small bug in this code was causing the ALLMULTI filter to be set
when in fact we were just wanting to program a selective multicast list
to the hardware.

Fix that bug and remove a redundant if condition in the code that
follows.

This fixes wakeup behaviour when multicast WOL is enabled. Previously,
all multicast packets would wake up the system. Now, only those that the
host intended to receive trigger wakeups.

mwifiex: clear is_suspended flag when interrupt is received early

2013-05-19T17:04:41+00:00

commit 48795424acff7215d5eac0b52793a2c1eb3a6283 upstream.

When the XO-4 with 8787 wireless is woken up due to wake-on-WLAN
mwifiex is often flooded with "not allowed while suspended" messages
and the interface is unusable.

[  202.171609] int: sdio_ireg = 0x1
[  202.180700] info: mwifiex_process_hs_config: auto cancelling host
               sleep since there is interrupt from the firmware
[  202.201880] event: wakeup device...

[  202.514839] data: dequeuing the packet ec7248c0 ec4869c0
[  202.514886] mwifiex_write_data_sync: not allowed while suspended
[  202.514886] host_to_card, write iomem (1) failed: -1
[  202.514917] mwifiex_write_data_sync: not allowed while suspended
[  202.514936] host_to_card, write iomem (2) failed: -1
[  202.514949] mwifiex_write_data_sync: not allowed while suspended
[  202.514965] host_to_card, write iomem (3) failed: -1
[  202.514976] mwifiex_write_data_async failed: 0xFFFFFFFF

This can be readily reproduced when putting the XO-4 in a loop where
it goes to sleep due to inactivity, but then wakes up due to an
incoming ping. The error is hit within an hour or two.

This issue happens when an interrupt comes in early while host sleep
is still activated. Driver handles this case by auto cancelling host
sleep. However is_suspended flag is still set which prevents any cmd
or data from being sent to firmware. Fix it by clearing is_suspended
flag in this path.

ath9k: fix key allocation error handling for powersave keys

2013-05-19T17:04:41+00:00

commit 4ef69d0394cba8caa9f75d3f2e53429bfb8b3045 upstream.

If no keycache slots are available, ath_key_config can return -ENOSPC.
If the key index is not checked for errors, it can lead to logspam that
looks like this: "ath: wiphy0: keyreset: keycache entry 228 out of range"
This can cause follow-up errors if the invalid keycache index gets
used for tx.

ath9k_htc: accept 1.x firmware newer than 1.3

commit 319e7bd96aca64a478f3aad40711c928405b8b77 upstream.

Since the firmware has been open sourced, the minor version has been
bumped to 1.4 and the API/ABI will stay compatible across further 1.x
releases.

rt2x00: rt2x00pci_regbusy_read() - only print register access failure once

2013-04-12T16:18:10+00:00

commit 83589b30f1e1dc9898986293c9336b8ce1705dec upstream.

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1128840

It appears that when this register read fails it never recovers, so
I think there is no need to repeat the same error message ad infinitum.

mwifiex: cancel cmd timer and free curr_cmd in shutdown process

commit 084c7189acb3f969c855536166042e27f5dd703f upstream.

curr_cmd points to the command that is in processing or waiting
for its command response from firmware. If the function shutdown
happens to occur at this time we should cancel the cmd timer and
put the command back to free queue.

b43: A fix for DMA transmission sequence errors

2013-04-05T17:16:36+00:00

commit b251412db99ccd4495ce372fec7daee27bf06923 upstream.

Intermittently, b43 will report "Out of order TX status report on DMA ring".
When this happens, the driver must be reset before communication can resume.
The cause of the problem is believed to be an error in the closed-source
firmware; however, all versions of the firmware are affected.

This change uses the observation that the expected status is always 2 less
than the observed value, and supplies a fake status report to skip one
header/data pair.

Not all devices suffer from this problem, but it can occur several times
per second under heavy load. As each occurence kills the unmodified driver,
this patch makes if possible for the affected devices to function. The patch
logs only the first instance of the reset operation to prevent spamming
the logs.

rt2x00: error in configurations with mesh support disabled

commit 6ef9e2f6d12ce9e2120916804d2ddd46b954a70b upstream.

If CONFIG_MAC80211_MESH is not set, cfg80211 will now allow advertising
interface combinations with NL80211_IFTYPE_MESH_POINT present.
Add appropriate ifdefs to avoid running into errors.
