When stations are removed while packets are in the queue, we drain the queues first, and then remove the stations. If this happens in AP mode while the interface is removed the MAC context might be removed from the firmware before we removed the station(s), resulting in a SYSASSERT 3421. This is because we remove the MAC context from the FW in stop_ap(), but only flush the station drain work later in remove_interface(). Refactor the code a bit to have a common MAC context removal preparation first to solve this. Reviewed-by:

The FH hardware will always write back to the scratch field in commands, even host commands not just TX commands, which can overwrite parts of the command. This is problematic if the command is re-used (with IWL_HCMD_DFL_NOCOPY) and can cause calibration issues. Address this problem by always putting at least the first 16 bytes into the buffer we also use for the command header and therefore make the DMA engine write back into this. For commands that are smaller than 16 bytes also always map enough memory for the DMA engine to write back to. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reviewed-by:

Unload sequence for mwifiex PCIE driver is as follows: 1. Invoking cleanup module from kernel results into pci_unregister_driver 2. Kernel invokes PCIE remove() handler which disconnects all interfaces. 3. One step during disconnect is to clean PCIE TX rings. During this we read txbd_rdptr from FW. While loading driver next time, we see pci_enable_device() results into system freeze. This may have happened because we accessed PCI device after unregistering from bus driver. Removing this ioread() operation resolves this bug. Signed-off-by:

If the system suspends with mwifiex wifi powered on, and is then woken by an ICMP ping packet, the ping response is discarded by the kernel because the kernel incorrectly thinks there is no carrier. I can't see any valid reason to want to report loss of carrier here, so remove the offending code. Fixes http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/12554Signed-off-by:

rtlwifi allocates both setup_packet and data buffer of control message urb, using shared kmalloc in _usbctrl_vendorreq_async_write. Structure used for allocating is: struct { u8 data[254]; struct usb_ctrlrequest dr; }; Because 'struct usb_ctrlrequest' is __packed, setup packet is unaligned and DMA mapping of both 'data' and 'dr' confuses ARM/sunxi, leading to memory corruptions and freezes. Patch changes setup packet to be allocated separately. [v2]: - Use WARN_ON_ONCE instead of WARN_ON Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by:Jussi Kivilinna <jussi.kivilinna@mbnet.fi> Signed-off-by:

For STA mode, collect VHT realated IEs from the Beacons or Probe Responses and append similar VHT related IEs to association requests. For AP mode, get VHT related capability information and share it with cfg80211 at the time of wiphy register. This information is further used by cfg80211 and hostapd to start an AP with 802.11AC support. Currently only 8897 supports 802.11AC. Signed-off-by:

Fix this issue by making the TE removal synchronous as well, this means that we wait for the response to that command first, before there's any chance of sending a new one. Also, to detect such issues more easily in the future, add a warning to the notification handler that detects them. Reviewed-by:

Larry noticed (and bisected) that commit df881293 "cfg80211: Pass TDLS peer's QoS/HT/VHT information during set_station" broke secure connections. This is is the case only for drivers that don't support TDLS, where any kind of change, even just the change of authorized flag that is required for normal operation, was rejected now. To fix this, remove the checks. I have some patches that will add proper verification for all the different cases later. Cc: Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi> Bisected-by:

Adding the flag to mac80211 already without testing was clearly a mistake, one that we now pay for by having to reserve bit 13 forever. The problem is cfg80211 doesn't allow capability/rate changes for station entries that were added unassociated, so the station entries cannot be set up properly when marked associated. Change the NL80211_FEATURE_FULL_AP_CLIENT_STATE value to make it clear to userspace implementations that all current kernels don't actually support it, even though the previous bit is set, and of course also remove the flag from mac80211 until we test and fix the issues.

The information of the peer's capabilities is required for the driver to perform TDLS Peer UAPSD operations. This information of the peer is passed by the supplicant using NL80211_CMD_SET_STATION command. This commit enhances the function nl80211_set_station to pass this information of the peer to the driver in case this command is used with the TDLS peer STA. In addition, make the HT/VHT capability configuration handled more consistently for other STA cases (reject both instead of just HT). Signed-off-by:

This information of the peer is passed from user space using NL80211_CMD_SET_STATION command.
