rtlwifi: rtl8192cu: Fix kernel deadlock

2015-06-06T15:19:39+00:00

commit 414b7e3b9ce8b0577f613e656fdbc36b34b444dd upstream.

The USB mini-driver in rtlwifi, which is used by rtl8192cu, issues a call to
usb_control_msg() with a timeout value of 0. In some instances where the
interface is shutting down, this infinite wait results in a CPU deadlock. A
one second timeout fixes this problem without affecting any normal operations.

This bug is reported at https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=927786.

wl18xx: show rx_frames_per_rates as an array as it really is

2015-05-06T19:59:20+00:00

commit a3fa71c40f1853d0c27e8f5bc01a722a705d9682 upstream.

In struct wl18xx_acx_rx_rate_stat, rx_frames_per_rates field is an
array, not a number.  This means WL18XX_DEBUGFS_FWSTATS_FILE can't be
used to display this field in debugfs (it would display a pointer, not
the actual data).  Use WL18XX_DEBUGFS_FWSTATS_FILE_ARRAY instead.

This bug has been found by adding a __printf attribute to
wl1271_format_buffer.  gcc complained about "format '%u' expects
argument of type 'unsigned int', but argument 5 has type 'u32 *'".

iwlwifi: dvm: run INIT firmware again upon .start()

2015-04-19T08:11:06+00:00

commit 9c8928f5176766bec79f272bd47b7124e11cccbd upstream.

The assumption before this patch was that we don't need to
run again the INIT firmware after the system booted. The
INIT firmware runs calibrations which impact the physical
layer's behavior.
Users reported that it may be helpful to run these
calibrations again every time the interface is brought up.
The penatly is minimal, since the calibrations run fast.

ath6kl: fix struct hif_scatter_req list handling

commit 31b9cc9a873dcab161999622314f98a75d838975 upstream.

Jason noticed that with Yocto GCC 4.8.1 ath6kl crashes with this iperf command:

iperf -c $TARGET_IP -i 5 -t 50 -w 1M

The crash was:

Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception

Jason's analysis:

  "The GCC 4.8.1 compiler will not do the for-loop till scat_entries, instead,
   it only run one round loop. This may be caused by that the GCC 4.8.1 thought
   that the scat_list only have one item and then no need to do full iteration,
   but this is simply wrong by looking at the assebly code. This will cause the sg
   buffer not get set when scat_entries > 1 and thus lead to kernel panic.

   Note: This issue not observed with GCC 4.7.2, only found on the GCC 4.8.1)"

Fix this by using the normal [0] style for defining unknown number of list
entries following the struct. This also fixes corruption with scat_q_depth, which
was mistankely added to the end of struct and overwritten if there were more
than item in the scat list.

ath5k: fix spontaneus AR5312 freezes

2015-03-18T12:31:34+00:00

commit 8bfae4f9938b6c1f033a5159febe97e441d6d526 upstream.

Sometimes while CPU have some load and ath5k doing the wireless
interface reset the whole WiSoC completely freezes. Set of tests shows
that using atomic delay function while we wait interface reset helps to
avoid such freezes.

The easiest way to reproduce this issue: create a station interface,
start continous scan with wpa_supplicant and load CPU by something. Or
just create multiple station interfaces and put them all in continous
scan.

This patch partially reverts the commit 1846ac3dbec0 ("ath5k: Use
usleep_range where possible"), which replaces initial udelay()
by usleep_range().

I do not know actual source of this issue, but all looks like that HW
freeze is caused by transaction on internal SoC bus, while wireless
block is in reset state.

Also I should note that I do not know how many chips are affected, but I
did not see this issue with chips, other than AR5312.

iwlwifi: mvm: always use mac color zero

2015-03-06T22:43:23+00:00

commit 5523d11cc46393a1e61b7ef4a0b2d4e7ed9521e4 upstream.

We don't really need to use different mac colors when adding mac
contexts, because they're not used anywhere.  In fact, the firmware
doesn't accept 255 as a valid color, so we get into a SYSASSERT 0x3401
when we reach that.

Remove the color increment to use always zero and avoid reaching 255.
