ath10k: start recovery process when payload length exceeds max htc length for sdio · 2fd3c8f3

Wen Gong authored Aug 14, 2020

When simulate random transfer fail for sdio write and read, it happened
"payload length exceeds max htc length" and recovery later sometimes.

Test steps:
1. Add config and update kernel:
CONFIG_FAIL_MMC_REQUEST=y
CONFIG_FAULT_INJECTION=y
CONFIG_FAULT_INJECTION_DEBUG_FS=y

2. Run simulate fail:
cd /sys/kernel/debug/mmc1/fail_mmc_request
echo 10 > probability
echo 10 > times # repeat until hitting issues

3. It happened payload length exceeds max htc length.
[  199.935506] ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1: payload length 57005 exceeds max htc length: 4088
....
[  264.990191] ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1: payload length 57005 exceeds max htc length: 4088

4. after some time, such as 60 seconds, it start recovery which triggered
by wmi command timeout for periodic scan.
[  269.229232] ieee80211 phy0: Hardware restart was requested
[  269.734693] ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1: device successfully recovered

The simulate fail of sdio is not a real sdio transter fail, it only
set an error status in mmc_should_fail_request after the transfer end,
actually the transfer is success, then sdio_io_rw_ext_helper will
return error status and stop transfer the left data. For example,
the really RX len is 286 bytes, then it will split to 2 blocks in
sdio_io_rw_ext_helper, one is 256 bytes, left is 30 bytes, if the
first 256 bytes get an error status by mmc_should_fail_request,then
the left 30 bytes will not read in this RX operation. Then when the
next RX arrive, the left 30 bytes will be considered as the header
of the read, the top 4 bytes of the 30 bytes will be considered as
lookaheads, but actually the 4 bytes is not the lookaheads, so the len
from this lookaheads is not correct, it exceeds max htc length 4088
sometimes. When happened exceeds, the buffer chain is not matched between
firmware and ath10k, then it need to start recovery ASAP. Recently then
recovery will be started by wmi command timeout, but it will be long time
later, for example, it is 60+ seconds later from the periodic scan, if
it does not have periodic scan, it will be longer.

Start recovery when it happened "payload length exceeds max htc length"
will be reasonable.

This patch only effect sdio chips.

Tested with QCA6174 SDIO with firmware WLAN.RMH.4.4.1-00029.

ath: drop unnecessary list_empty · 18c25b40

Julia Lawall authored Jul 26, 2020

list_for_each_entry{_safe} is able to handle an empty list.
The only effect of avoiding the loop is not initializing the
index variable.
Drop list_empty tests in cases where these variables are not
used.

Note that list_for_each_entry{_safe} is defined in terms of
list_first_entry, which indicates that it should not be used on an
empty list.  But in list_for_each_entry{_safe}, the element obtained
by list_first_entry is not really accessed, only the address of its
list_head field is compared to the address of the list head, so the
list_first_entry is safe.

The semantic patch that makes this change for the list_for_each_entry
case is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

expression x,e;
statement S;
identifier i;

-if (!(list_empty(x)))

wcn36xx: Use sequence number allocated by mac80211 · 84aff52e

Loic Poulain authored Jul 24, 2020

Instead of using the firmware generated sequence number, use the one
already allocated by the mac80211 layer. This allows better control
of the sequence numbers and avoid to rely on same sequence for Data,
QOS Data and QOS Null Data packets.

wcn36xx: Fix TX data path · 512b191d

Loic Poulain authored Jul 24, 2020

This patch contains the following fixes:

- Use correct queue for submitting QoS packet. The queue id to use
is a one-to-one mapping with the TID.

- Don't encrypt a frame with IEEE80211_TX_INTFL_DONT_ENCRYPT flag.

- Use the 'special queue' for null packets, preventing the firmware
to submit it as AMPDU.

wcn36xx: Add TX ack support · fdf21cc3

Loic Poulain authored Jul 24, 2020

The controller is capable of reporting TX indication which can be used
to report TX ack when IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS is set.
The support was only partially implemented.

The firmware can be configured for reporting event when a packet is
acked, without specifying which packet though. In order to send a
packet flagged with TX status callback, we need to stop the queue,
submit the packet and wait for the firmware ack event. Then the queue
can be restarted and mac80211 status callback called.

In case the packet is not acked, no ack event will be received,
therefore a timeout mechanism is introduced to restart the queue
and call the status cb in case no event is received after a 100ms.

wcn36xx: Fix multiple AMPDU sessions support · ffe835aa

Loic Poulain authored Jul 24, 2020

Several AMPDU sessions can be started, e.g. for different TIDs.
Currently the driver does not take care of the session ID when
requesting block-ack (statically set to 0), which leads to never
block-acked packet with sessions other than 0.

Fix this by saving the session id when creating the ba session and
use it in subsequent ba operations.

This issue can be reproduced with iperf in two steps (tid 0 strem
then tid 6 stream).

1.0 iperf -s                                # wcn36xx side
1.1 iperf -c ${IP_ADDR}                     # host side

Then

2.0 iperf -s -u -S 0xC0                     # wcn36xx side
2.1 iperf -c ${IP_ADDR} -u -S 0xC0 -l 2000  # host side

ath10k: check idx validity in __ath10k_htt_rx_ring_fill_n() · bad60b8d

Zekun Shen authored Jun 23, 2020

The idx in __ath10k_htt_rx_ring_fill_n function lives in
consistent dma region writable by the device. Malfunctional
or malicious device could manipulate such idx to have a OOB
write. Either by
    htt->rx_ring.netbufs_ring[idx] = skb;
or by
    ath10k_htt_set_paddrs_ring(htt, paddr, idx);

The idx can also be negative as it's signed, giving a large
memory space to write to.

It's possibly exploitable by corruptting a legit pointer with
a skb pointer. And then fill skb with payload as rougue object.

Part of the log here. Sometimes it appears as UAF when writing
to a freed memory by chance.

ath9k: Check the return value of pcie_capability_read_*() · 9a8ab2bf

Bolarinwa Olayemi Saheed authored Jul 13, 2020

On failure pcie_capability_read_dword() sets it's last parameter, val
to 0. However, with Patch 14/14, it is possible that val is set to ~0 on
failure. This would introduce a bug because (x & x) == (~0 & x).

This bug can be avoided without changing the function's behaviour if the
return value of pcie_capability_read_dword is checked to confirm success.

Check the return value of pcie_capability_read_dword() to ensure success.
