Since commit 558ff225 (ath9k: fix ps-poll responses under a-mpdu sessions) non-data frames would have gotten a sequence number from a TIDs sequence counter instead of using the global sequence counter. This can lead to instable connections. To fix this only select the correct TID if we are processing a data frame. Furthermore, prevent non-data frames to get a sequence number from a TID sequence counter by adding a check to ath_tx_setup_buffer. Cc: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by:

As many Surface Pro I & II users have found out, the mwifiex_usb doesn't support usb autosuspend, and it has caused some system stability issues. Bug 69661 - mwifiex_usb on MS Surface Pro 1 is unstable Bug 60815 - Interface hangs in mwifiex_usb Bug 64111 - mwifiex_usb USB8797 crash failed to get signal information USB autosuspend get triggered when Surface Pro's AC power is removed or powertop enables power saving on USB8797 device. Driver's suspend handler is called here, but resume handler won't be called until the AC power is put back on or powertop disables power saving for USB8797. We need to refactor the suspend/resume handlers to support usb autosuspend properly. For now let's just remove it. Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # 3.5+ Signed-off-by:

When a VHT network uses 20 or 40 MHz as per the HT operation information, the channel center frequency segment 0 field in the VHT operation information is reserved, so ignore it.

Only the first packet is currently handled correctly, but then all others are assumed to have failed which is problematic.

Some APs reject STA association request if a listen interval value exceeds a threshold of 10. Thus, for example, Cisco APs may deny STA associations returning status code 12 (Association denied due to reason outside the scope of 802.11 standard) in the association response frame.

Only set sc->rx.discard_next to rx_stats->rs_more when actually discarding the current descriptor. Also, fix a detection of broken descriptors: First the code checks if the current descriptor is not done. Then it checks if the next descriptor is done. Add a check that afterwards checks the first descriptor again, because it might have been completed in the mean time. This fixes a regression introduced in commit 723e7113 "ath9k: fix handling of broken descriptors" Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reported-by:

The MLME code in mac80211 must track whether or not the AP changed bandwidth, but if there's no change while tracking it shouldn't do anything, otherwise regulatory updates can make it impossible to connect to certain APs if the regulatory database doesn't match the information from the AP. See the precise scenario described in the code. This still leaves some possible problems with CSA or if the AP actually changed bandwidth, but those cases are less common and won't completely prevent using it.

The driver concatenates multiple packets in one MMC transfer. For scatter-gather to work the total length need to be multiple of 512 bytes. A pre-allocated buffer was used to add padding to accomplish that. However, the length was not properly set and it was freed after the first transfer causing a crash. Reviewed-by:

We set IWL_STA_UCODE_INPROGRESS flag when we add a station and clear it when we send the LQ command for it. But the LQ command is sent only when the association succeeds. If the association doesn't succeed, we would leave this flag set and that wouldn't indicate the station entry as vacant.

Consider the following (relatively unlikely) scenario: 1) station goes to sleep while frames are buffered in driver 2) driver blocks wakeup (until no more frames are buffered) 3) station wakes up again 4) driver unblocks wakeup In this case, the current mac80211 code will do the following: 1) WLAN_STA_PS_STA set 2) WLAN_STA_PS_DRIVER set 3) - nothing - 4) WLAN_STA_PS_DRIVER cleared As a result, no frames will be delivered to the client, even though it is awake, until it sends another frame to us that triggers ieee80211_sta_ps_deliver_wakeup() in sta_ps_end(). Since we now take the PS spinlock, we can fix this while at the same time removing the complexity with the pending skb queue function. This was broken since my commit 50a9432d ("mac80211: fix powersaving clients races") due to removing the clearing of WLAN_STA_PS_STA in the RX path. While at it, fix a cleanup path issue when a station is removed while the driver is still blocking its wakeup. Signed-off-by:

There's a race condition in mac80211 because we add stations to the internal lists after adding them to the driver, which means that (for example) the following can happen: 1. a station connects and is added 2. first, it is added to the driver 3. then, it is added to the mac80211 lists If the station goes to sleep between steps 2 and 3, and the firmware/hardware records it as being asleep, mac80211 will never instruct the driver to wake it up again as it never realized it went to sleep since the RX path discarded the frame as a "spurious class 3 frame", no station entry was present yet. Fix this by adding the station in software first, and only then adding it to the driver. That way, any state that the driver changes will be reflected properly in mac80211's station state. The problematic part is the roll-back if the driver fails to add the station, in that case a bit more is needed. To not make that overly complex prevent starting BA sessions in the meantime.
