The commit, "ath9k_hw: improve ANI processing and rx desensitizing parameters" removed code setting various phy registers holding threshold values. This is likely required for OFDM weak signal detection to function correctly, so add them, but skip AR9462 and AR9565.

The commit, "ath9k_hw: improve ANI processing and rx desensitizing parameters" modified the immunity level tables for both CCK and OFDM.

The commit "ath9k_hw: improve ANI processing and rx desensitizing parameters" changed various ANI operational parameters to address a specific card/environment. This is not really applicable for other cards in general usage. As per internal documentation, lowering the immunity level can be done only after 5 periods have passed and the CCK/OFDM errors are below the low watermak threshold - which have been fixed at 300 and 400 respectively by the sytems team. Raising the immunity level can be done when CCK/OFDM errors exceed 600 and 1000 (per second). Set these values once during attach.

The module parameter "fwpostfix" is userspace controllable, unfiltered, and is used to define the firmware filename. b43_do_request_fw() populates ctx->errors[] on error, containing the firmware filename. b43err() parses its arguments as a format string. For systems with b43 hardware, this could lead to a uid-0 to ring-0 escalation. CVE-2013-2852 Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: John W.

The ath9k rate control algorithm has various architectural issues that make it a poor fit in scenarios like congested environments etc. An example: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=927191 Change the default to minstrel which is more robust in such cases. The ath9k RC code is left in the driver for now, maybe it can be removed altogether later on.

Almost all the DMA issues which have plagued ath9k (in station mode) for years are related to PS. Disabling PS usually "fixes" the user's connection stablility. Reports of DMA problems are still trickling in and are sitting in the kernel bugzilla. Until the PS code in ath9k is given a thorough review, disbale it by default. The slight increase in chip power consumption is a small price to pay for improved link stability.

For example, when testing P2P, the mode is '8' (P2P_CLIENT) so the code accesses data beyond the bounds of the bss_modes[] array which causes the panic. Fix this by updating bss_modes[] to support the current list of modes and adding a check to prevent the out-of-bounds access from occuring in the future when more modes are added.

If hci_dev_open fails we need to ensure that the corresponding mgmt_set_powered command gets an appropriate response. This patch fixes the missing response by adding a new mgmt_set_powered_failed function that's used to indicate a power on failure to mgmt. Since a situation with the device being rfkilled may require special handling in user space the patch uses a new dedicated mgmt status code for this.

Support for rt2800 device is broken since my 'rt2x00: rt2x00dev: use rt2x00dev->tx->limit' patch. The changelog of that commit says that the TX data queue is initialized already when the rt2x00lib_probe_hw() function is called. However as Jakub noticed it, this statement is not correct. The queue->limit field is initialized in the rt2x00queue_alloc_entries routine and that is not yet called when rt2x00lib_probe_hw() runs. Because the value of tx->limit contains zero, the driver tries to allocate a kernel fifo with zero size and kfifo_alloc rejects that with -EINVAL. PCI: Enabling device 0000:01:00.0 (0000 -> 0002) ieee80211 phy1: rt2x00_set_rt: Info - RT chipset 3071, rev 021c detected ieee80211 phy1: rt2x00_set_rf: Info - RF chipset 0008 detected ieee80211 phy1: rt2x00lib_probe_dev: Error - Failed to initialize hw rt2800pci: probe of 0000:01:00.0 failed with error -22 Move the data_queue field initialization from the rt2x00queue_alloc_entries routine into the rt2x00queue_init function. The initialization code is not strictly related to the allocation, and the change ensures that the queue_data fields can be used in the probe routines. The patch also introduces a helper function in order to be able to get the correct data_queue_desc structure for a given queue. This helper is only needed temporarily and it will be removed later.

The optional debugfs interface to the vendor's engineering tools wasn't bounds checking at all, which made it trivial to perform a buffer overflow if this interface was compiled in and then explicitly enabled at runtime. This patch checks both the length supplied as part of the data to ensure it is sane, and also the amount of data compared to the remaining buffer space. If either is too large, fail immediately.

In unassociated BSS STA mode FW verifies both power save and power management flags to decide on switching power off. The driver currently sets power management flag according to mac80211 decision. As result, in unassociated mode power management flag is down and power consumption is high. Change power management enablement. When unassociated in BPS and LP power save modes enable power management regardless of mac80211 decision. Rely on mac80211 decision if associated. Add power management state update during associated/disassociated modes transitions.

The AP mode needs to use the MCAST fifo for the MCAST frames sent after the DTIM. This fifo needs to be configured with the same parameters as the VOICE FIFO. A separate SCD queue is mapped to this fifo - the cab_queue (cab stands for Content After Beacon). This queue isn't connected to any station, but rather to the MAC context. This queue should (and is already) be set as the MCAST queue - this is part of the of MAC context command.

According to the FW implementation, the quota command should have a valid entry for each active binding (where 'active' in this context means that the binding is known to the FW). In case the binding should not get any quota, the 'quota' should be set to zero. Not setting an 0 quota for an active binding when all the MACs in the binding are idle, i.e., not associated in case of managed interface, will result in preventing the FW scheduler from entering IDLE state and the FW from transitioning to low PS.
