The current key offset assignment algorithm always uses the lowest unused key offset, which will potentially lead to issues when the firmware will change to take the key material for TX from the key table rather than from the TX command. In order to avoid those issues (and avoid forgetting about them) change the key offset allocation algorithm now to avoid reusing key offsets quickly. The new algorithm always picks as the next offset the least recently freed offset, i.e. the offset that has been unused for the longest amount of time. This is implemented by having a generation counter for each key offset that is incremented every time a key is deleted, except for the one that's deleted, which is reset to zero. Thus the highest counter is the key that's been unused longest. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com>
