2012-05-07iwlwifi: fix hardware queue programmingJohannes Berg
commit 5ef4acd58ab2abd0dd0c8e3cacd61a0dc5d73646 upstream. Newer devices have 20 (5000 series) or 30 (6000 series) hardware queues, rather than the 16 that 4965 had. This was added to the driver a long time ago, but improperly: the queue registers for the higher queues aren't just continuations of the registers for the first 16 queues, they are in other places. Therefore, the hardware would lock up when trying to activate queue 16 or above and the device would have to be restarted. Thanks goes to Emmanuel who identified this and told me how the queue programming should be done. Note that we don't use queues 20 and higher today and doing so needs more work than this.

commit 328c32f0f85467af5a6c4c3289e168d9ad2555af upstream. Currently SDIO glue frees it's own structure before calling wl1251_free_hw(), which in turn calls ieee80211_unregister_hw(). The later call may result in a need to communicate with the chip to stop it (as it happens now if the interface is still up before rmmod), which means calls are made back to the glue, resulting in freed memory access. Fix this by freeing glue data last. Signed-off-by: Grazvydas Ignotas <notasas@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2012-05-07ipw2200: Fix race condition in the command completion acknowledgeStanislav Yakovlev
commit dd447319895d0c0af423e483d9b63f84f3f8869a upstream. Driver incorrectly validates command completion: instead of waiting for a command to be acknowledged it continues execution. Most of the time driver gets acknowledge of the command completion in a tasklet before it executes the next one. But sometimes it sends the next command before it gets acknowledge for the previous one. In such a case one of the following error messages appear in the log: Failed to send SYSTEM_CONFIG: Already sending a command. Failed to send ASSOCIATE: Already sending a command. Failed to send TX_POWER: Already sending a command. After that you need to reload the driver to get it working again. This bug occurs during roaming (reported by Sam Varshavchik) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=738508 and machine booting (reported by Tom Gundersen and Mads Kiilerich) https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/28097 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=802106 This patch doesn't fix the delay issue during firmware load.

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.

commit badc4f07622f0f7093a201638f45e85765f1b5e4 upstream. There have been reports about not being able to use access-points on channel 12 and 13 or having connectivity issues when these channels were part of the selected regulatory domain. Upon switching to these channels the brcmsmac driver suspends the transmit dma fifos. This patch resumes them upon handing over the first received beacon to mac80211.

2012-04-22rtlwifi: Preallocate USB read buffers and eliminate kalloc in read routineLarry Finger
commit a7959c1394d4126a70a53b914ce4105f5173d0aa upstream. The current version of rtlwifi for USB operations uses kmalloc to acquire a 32-bit buffer for each read of the device. When _usb_read_sync() is called with the rcu_lock held, the result is a "sleeping function called from invalid context" BUG. This is reported for two cases in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42775. The first case has the lock originating from within rtlwifi and could be fixed by rearranging the locking; however, the second originates from within mac80211. The kmalloc() call is removed from _usb_read_sync() by creating a ring buffer pointer in the private area and allocating the buffer data in the probe routine.

2012-04-13ath9k: fix max noise floor thresholdRajkumar Manoharan
commit 2ee0a07028d2cde6e131b73f029dae2b93c50f3a upstream. Currently the maximum noise floor limit is set as too high (-60dB). The assumption of having a higher threshold limit is that it would help de-sensitize the receiver (reduce phy errors) from continuous interference. But when we have a bursty interference where there are collisions and then free air time and if the receiver is desensitized too much, it will miss the normal packets too. Lets make use of chips specific min, nom and max limits always. This patch helps to improve the connection stability in congested networks.

One fix (commit a9b89e2) has already been applied, and it helped, but the maximum RX speed would still drop to 1 Mbps. As in the previous fix, the initial gain was determined to be the problem; however, the problem arises from a setting of the gain when scans are started.

2012-04-02rtlwifi: Convert to asynchronous firmware loadLarry Finger
commit b0302aba812bcc39291cdab9ad7e37008f352a91 upstream. This patch addresses a kernel bugzilla report and two recent mail threads. The kernel bugzilla report is https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42632, which reports a udev timeout on boot. The first mail thread, which was on LKML (http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/ linux/kernel/1112.3/00965.html) was for a WARNING that occurs after a suspend/resume cycle for rtl8192cu. The scond mail thread (http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=132655490826766&w=2) concerned changes in udev that break drivers that delay while firmware is loaded on modprobe. This patch converts all rtlwifi-based drivers to use the asynchronous firmware loading mechanism. Drivers rtl8192ce, rtl8192cu and rtl8192de share a common callback routine. Driver rtl8192se needs different handling of the firmware, thus it has its own code. Signed-off-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

commit 342bbf3fee2fa9a18147e74b2e3c4229a4564912 upstream. If we only monitor while associated, the following can happen: - we're associated, and the queue stuck check runs, setting the queue "touch" time to X - we disassociate, stopping the monitoring, which leaves the time set to X - almost 2s later, we associate, and enqueue a frame - before the frame is transmitted, we monitor for stuck queues, and find the time set to X, although it is now later than X + 2000ms, so we decide that the queue is stuck and erroneously restart the device It happens more with P2P because there we can go between associated/unassociated frequently.

2012-03-12rt2x00: fix random stallsStanislaw Gruszka
Is possible that we stop queue and then do not wake up it again, especially when packets are transmitted fast. That can be easily reproduced with modified tx queue entry_num to some small value e.g. 16. If mac80211 already hold local->queue_stop_reason_lock, then we can wait on that lock in both rt2x00queue_pause_queue() and rt2x00queue_unpause_queue(). After drooping ->queue_stop_reason_lock is possible that __ieee80211_wake_queue() will be performed before __ieee80211_stop_queue(), hence we stop queue and newer wake up it again. Another race condition is possible when between rt2x00queue_threshold() check and rt2x00queue_pause_queue() we will process all pending tx buffers on different cpu. This might happen if for example interrupt will be triggered on cpu performing rt2x00mac_tx(). To prevent race conditions serialize pause/unpause by queue->tx_lock.

It turns out that the driver was not honoring two important flags (IEEE80211_TX_CTL_POLL_RESPONSE and IEEE80211_TX_CTL_CLEAR_PS_FILT) which are set on frames that should be sent although the receiving station is still in powersave mode.

2012-02-29carl9170: Fix memory accounting when sta is in power-save mode.Nicolas Cavallari
On Access Point mode, when transmitting a packet, if the destination station is in powersave mode, we abort transmitting the packet to the device queue, but we do not reclaim the allocated memory. Given enough packets, we can go in a state where there is no packet on the device queue, but we think the device has no memory left, so no packet gets transmitted, connections breaks and the AP stops working. This undo the allocation done in the TX path when the station is in power-save mode.

When trying to remove a key, we always send key flags just setting the key type, not including the multicast flag and the key ID. As a result, whenever any key was removed, the unicast key 0 would be removed, causing a complete connection loss after the second rekey (the first doesn't cause a key removal). Fix the key removal code to include the key ID and multicast flag, thus removing the correct key.

2012-02-15mwifiex: clear previous security setting during associationAmitkumar Karwar
Driver maintains different flags for WEP, WPA, WPA2 security modes. Appropriate flag is set using security information provided in connect request. mwifiex_is_network_compatible() routine uses them to check if driver's setting is compatible with AP. Association is aborted if the routine fails. For some corner cases, it is observed that association is failed even for valid security information based on association history. This patch fixes the problem by clearing previous security setting during each association. We should set WEP key provided in connect request as default tx key.

2012-02-07zd1211rw: firmware needs duration_id set to zero for non-pspoll framesTomas Vanek
Some devices (iwl5100) cannot connect to zd1211rw based AP. It appears that zd1211 firmware messes up duration_id field if it is not set to zero by driver. Sniffing traffic shows that zd1211 is transmitting frames with duration_id bits 14 and 15 set and other bits appearing random. Setting duration_id at driver to zero results zd1211 outputting sane duration_id. This means that firmware is setting correct values itself and expects duration_id to be zero in first place. Looking at vendor driver shows that only PSPoll frames have duration_id set by driver, for other frames duration_id left zero.

This patch correct the type of variables containing the rssi values read from the rxwi. In function rt2800_agc_to_rssi() 3 variables (rssi0, rssi1, rss2) defined as int was assigned a 16bit signed values as unsigned. From a test with a hi-gain antenna I verified that the rxwi contains signed rssi values in the range -13/+81 (inclusive) with 0 as an error condition. In case of negative values a condition is triggered and the function return -128dBm while the signal is at its maximum. This patch correct the cast so negative values are not treated as very high positive values (ex. -13 does not become 243).
