      ath9k_htc: Fix probe failure if CONFIG_USB_DEBUG enabled · 490b3f4e
      Rajkumar Manoharan authored
      Since the endpoint descriptors (EP3 & EP4) were changed from Interrupt
      to Bulk type by firmware, the urb submission done on Bulk pipes.
      And the recent commit "check the endpoint type against the pipe type"
      added aditional error checking against pipe types under CONFIG_USB_DEBUG.
      
      So bmAttribute has to be updated for both EP3 & EP4 before submitting
      urbs on that pipe. This patch resolves the following failure.

      ath9k_hw: Fix AR9280 surprise removal during frequent idle on/off · f119da30
      Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan authored
      Bit 22 of AR_WA should be set to fix the situation where chip reset
      is asynchronous to clock of analog shift registers, such that when
      reset is released, it could mess up the values of analog shift registers
      and cause some hw issue on AR9280.
      
      This bit is write only, but the driver does a read-modify-write
      on AR_WA without setting bit 22 in ar9002_hw_configpcipowersave()
      during radio disable. This causes surprise removal of hw. It can
      never recover from this state and the hw will become usable only
      after a power on/off cycle, and sometimes only during a cold reboot.
      
      This issue can be triggered by doing frequent roaming with the
      simple/test-roam script available from the wifi-test project [1]
      when roaming between APs quickly. When roaming there is a is a high
      possibility that the device being put into idle (radio disable) state
      by mac80211 during AUTH->ASSOC. A device hardware reset would fail
      and the kernel would output:

      This is currently only reproducible with some HB92 (Half Mini-PCIE)
      cards but the fix applies to all AR9280 cards. This patch fixes this
      issue by setting bit 22 during radio disable.
      
      This patch has fixes for all kernels that has ath9k.

      There are currently no provisions in place to ensure that the scanning
      task has been stopped when the interface is stopped or removed.
      
      This can result in a WARNING at net/wireless/core.c:643 and other badness
      when you remove the module while a scan is happening.

      mac80211: unset SDATA_STATE_OFFCHANNEL when cancelling a scan · 352ffad6
      Brian Cavagnolo authored
      For client STA interfaces, ieee80211_do_stop unsets the relevant
      interface's SDATA_STATE_RUNNING state bit prior to cancelling an
      interrupted scan.  When ieee80211_offchannel_return is invoked as
      part of cancelling the scan, it doesn't bother unsetting the
      SDATA_STATE_OFFCHANNEL bit because it sees that the interface is
      down.  Normally this doesn't matter because when the client STA
      interface is brought back up, it will probably issue a scan.  But
      in some cases (e.g., the user changes the interface type while it
      is down), the SDATA_STATE_OFFCHANNEL bit will remain set.  This
      prevents the interface queues from being started.  So we
      cancel the scan before unsetting the SDATA_STATE_RUNNING bit.

      ath9k: check old power mode before clearing cycle counters · fbb078fc
      Felix Fietkau authored
      ath9k_ps_wakeup() clears the cycle counters after waking up the
      hardware using ath9k_hw_setpower, however if power save is disabled,
      then the counters will contain useful data, which then gets discarded.
      Fix this by checking the old power mode before discarding any data.

      libipw: fix proc entry removal · 269e2d77
      Linus Torvalds authored
      This bug seems to be due to commit 27ae60f8 ("ipw2x00: replace
      "ieee80211" with "libipw" where appropriate"), where Pavel did this:
      
      -       libipw_proc = proc_mkdir(DRV_NAME, init_net.proc_net);
      +       libipw_proc = proc_mkdir("ieee80211", init_net.proc_net);
      
      but then the cleanup was kept as
      
              remove_proc_entry(DRV_NAME, init_net.proc_net);
      
      in both places (both in the failure case and in the unload case). The
      error string is also total crap, and says
      
           "Unable to create " DRV_NAME " proc directory\n");
      
      Even though it doesn't actually create a proc directory named DRV_NAME at all.
      
      So that patch looks like total and utter crap to me. The commit message says
      
        "Keep /proc/net/ieee80211 under the original name to avoid breaking user
          interface."
      
      but the thing is, it really didn't fix anything but that one create
      thing. It needs to fix all the other cases too.

      mac80211: fix failure to check kmalloc return value in key_key_read · 520efd1a
      Jesper Juhl authored
      I noticed two small issues in mac80211/debugfs_key.c::key_key_read while
      reading through the code. Patch below.
      
      The key_key_read() function returns ssize_t and the value that's actually
      returned is the return value of simple_read_from_buffer() which also
      returns ssize_t, so let's hold the return value in a ssize_t local
      variable rather than a int one.
      
      Also, memory is allocated dynamically with kmalloc() which can fail, but
      the return value of kmalloc() is not checked, so we may end up operating
      on a null pointer further on. So check for a NULL return and bail out with
      -ENOMEM in that case.

      For the SD8686, we cannot rely on the scratch register to read the firmware

      iwlwifi: quiet a noisy printk · 822395b5
      Don Fry authored
      Timing issues in microcode for some devices can cause a compressed BA to
      be sent to the driver prior to returning any a-MPDU notification.
      Traces show RTS-CTS is exchanged and then the timer fires which causes an
      empty BA to be sent which acknowledges nothing.  This results in a noisy
      printk. Only print the message if the bitmap is non-zero.

      ath9k: resume aggregation immediately after a hardware reset · fac6b6a0
      Felix Fietkau authored
      Since aggregation is usually triggered by tx completion, a hardware
      reset (because of beacon stuck, tx hang or baseband hang) can
      significantly delay the transmission of the next AMPDU (until the next
      tx completion event).
      Fix this by rescheduling aggregation after such a reset.

      Rajkumar Manoharan authored
      Station addition in ieee80211_ibss_rx_queued_mgmt is not updating
      sta->last_rx which is causing station expiry in ieee80211_ibss_work
      path. So sta addition and deletion happens repeatedly.

      ath9k: fix handling of rate control probe frames · 0299a50a
      Felix Fietkau authored
      The ath9k aggregation code was already checking the rate control probe flag
      to prevent starting an aggregate frame with a sampling rate. What was missing
      was closing an aggregate before adding a probing frame to it.
      Without that, rate control cannot have precise control over probing, which
      delays using faster rates when the channel conditions improve.

      ath9k_hw: Fix TX carrier leakage for IEEE compliance on AR9003 2.2 · 0dfa6dbb
      Luis R. Rodriguez authored
      This updates the initvals for the AR9003 2.2 chipsets. The initvals
      are the initial register values we use for our registers upon hardware
      reset. This synchs up the initvals to match what our latest recommendation
      from our systems engineering team.
      
      The description of changes in this update:
      
              Improves ability to support very strong Rx conditions.
              Enhances DFS support for AP-mode.
              Improves performance of Tx carrier leak calibration.
              Adds support for Japan channel 14 Tx filtering requirements.
              Improves Tx power accuracy.
      
      Impact:
      
              Update required to address degraded throughput at very short range.
              Update required for AP-mode DFS certification.
              Update required to comply to IEEE Tx carrier leak specification.
              May not meet expected +/- 2 dB Tx power accuracy without update.
      
      The most important fix here would be the TX carrier leakage required
      to comply with IEEE 802.11 specifications. The group of changes have
      been tested all together in one release.

      cfg80211: fix regression on processing country IEs · a171fba4
      Luis R. Rodriguez authored
      The patch 4f366c5d:
      
      	wireless: only use alpha2 regulatory information from country IE
      
      removed some complex intersection we were always doing between the AP's
      country IE info and what we got from CRDA. When CRDA sent us back a
      regulatory domain we would do some sanity checks on that regulatory
      domain response we just got. Part of these sanity checks included
      checking that we already had performed an intersection for the
      request of NL80211_REGDOM_SET_BY_COUNTRY_IE type.
      
      This mean that cfg80211 was only processing country IEs for cases
      where we already had an intersection, but since we removed enforcing
      this this is no longer required, we should just apply the country
      IE country hint with the data received from CRDA.
      
      This patch has fixes intended for kernels >= 2.6.36.
