      iwlwifi: pcie: fix polling in various places · 7f2ac8fb
      Emmanuel Grumbach authored
      iwl_poll_bit may return a strictly positive value when the
      poll doesn't match on the first try.
      This was caught when WoWLAN started failing upon resume
      even if the poll_bit actually succeeded.
      
      Also change a wrong print. If we reach the end of
      iwl_pcie_prepare_card_hw, it means that we couldn't
      get the devices.

      iwlwifi: dvm: drop non VO frames when flushing · a0855054
      Emmanuel Grumbach authored
      When mac80211 wants to ensure that a frame is sent, it calls
      the flush() callback. Until now, iwldvm implemented this by
      waiting that all the frames are sent (ACKed or timeout).
      In case of weak signal, this can take a significant amount
      of time, delaying the next connection (in case of roaming).
      Many users have reported that the flush would take too long
      leading to the following error messages to be printed:
      
      iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: fail to flush all tx fifo queues Q 2
      iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: Current SW read_ptr 161 write_ptr 201
      iwl data: 00000000: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 fe ff 01 00 00 00 00 00
      [snip]
      iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: FH TRBs(0) = 0x00000000
      [snip]
      iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: Q 0 is active and mapped to fifo 3 ra_tid 0x0000 [9,9]
      [snip]
      
      Instead of waiting for these packets, simply drop them. This
      significantly improves the responsiveness of the network.
      Note that all the queues are flushed, but the VO one. This
      is not typically used by the applications and it likely
      contains management frames that are useful for connection
      or roaming.
      
      This bug is tracked here:
      https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56581
      
      But it is duplicated in distributions' trackers.
      A simple search in Ubuntu's database led to these bugs:

      iwlwifi: mvm: ROC - bug fixes around time events and locking · a6cc5163
      Matti Gottlieb authored
      Don't add the time event to the list. We added it several
      times the same time event, which leads to an infinite loop
      when walking the list.
      
      Since we (currently) don't support more than one ROC for STA
      vif at a time, enforce this and don't add the time event
      to any list.
      
      We were also missing the locking of the mutex which led to
      a lockdep splat - fix that.
