2013-06-19b43: stop format string leaking into error msgsKees Cook
commit e0e29b683d6784ef59bbc914eac85a04b650e63c upstream. The module parameter "fwpostfix" is userspace controllable, unfiltered, and is used to define the firmware filename. b43_do_request_fw() populates ctx->errors[] on error, containing the firmware filename. b43err() parses its arguments as a format string. For systems with b43 hardware, this could lead to a uid-0 to ring-0 escalation. CVE-2013-2852 Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

2013-05-30B43: Handle DMA RX descriptor underrunThommy Jakobsson
commit 73b82bf0bfbf58e6ff328d3726934370585f6e78 upstream. Add handling of rx descriptor underflow. This fixes a fault that could happen on slow machines, where data is received faster than the CPU can handle. In such a case the device will use up all rx descriptors and refuse to send any more data before confirming that it is ok. This patch enables necessary interrupt to discover such a situation and will handle them by dropping everything in the ring buffer.

2012-05-11b43: only reload config after successful initializationSeth Forshee
commit dbdedbdf4fbff3d4962a0786f37aa86dfdc48a7e upstream. Commit 2a19032 (b43: reload phy and bss settings after core restarts) introduced an unconditional call to b43_op_config() at the end of b43_op_start(). When firmware fails to load this can wedge the system. There's no need to reload the configuration after a failed initialization anyway, so only make the call if initialization was successful.

This removes the "FWxx" ID strings from the b43 and b43legacy drivers. They were once used to match a specific driver revision to a set of firmware files. However, this is hardly useful today. Additionally, the IDs are not updated and maintained properly, so they might mislead users.

2011-08-22b43: reload phy and bss settings after core restartsFelix Fietkau
b43_op_config and b43_op_bss_info_changed apply many settings by directly writing to hardware registers. These settings are lost as soon as the core is restarted and the initvals are reloaded. This was discovered because restarting hostapd led to the beacon interval getting set to ~33s (see https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/8033 for more information).
