commit 8f44c9a41386729fea410e688959ddaa9d51be7c upstream.

The lower level nl80211 code in cfg80211 ensures that "len" is between
25 and NL80211_ATTR_FRAME (2304).  We subtract DOT11_MGMT_HDR_LEN (24) from
"len" so thats's max of 2280.  However, the action_frame-&gt;data[] buffer is
only BRCMF_FIL_ACTION_FRAME_SIZE (1800) bytes long so this memcpy() can
overflow.

	memcpy(action_frame-&gt;data, &amp;buf[DOT11_MGMT_HDR_LEN],
	       le16_to_cpu(action_frame-&gt;len));

Fixes: 18e2f61db3b70 ("brcmfmac: P2P action frame tx.")

<title>mwifiex: pcie: fix cmd_buf use-after-free in remove/reset</title>

commit 3c8cb9ad032d737b874e402c59eb51e3c991a144 upstream.

Command buffers (skb's) are allocated by the main driver, and freed upon
the last use. That last use is often in mwifiex_free_cmd_buffer(). In
the meantime, if the command buffer gets used by the PCI driver, we map
it as DMA-able, and store the mapping information in the 'cb' memory.

However, if a command was in-flight when resetting the device (and
therefore was still mapped), we don't get a chance to unmap this memory
until after the core has cleaned up its command handling.

Let's keep a refcount within the PCI driver, so we ensure the memory
only gets freed after we've finished unmapping it.

Noticed by KASAN when forcing a reset via:

  echo 1 &gt; /sys/bus/pci/.../reset

The same code path can presumably be exercised in remove() and
shutdown().

This bug has been around in different forms for a while. It was sort of
noticed in commit 955ab095c51a ("mwifiex: Do not kfree cmd buf while
unregistering PCIe"), but it just fixed the double-free, without
acknowledging the potential for use-after-free.

This bug has been around in different forms for a while. It was sort of
noticed in commit 955ab095c51a ("mwifiex: Do not kfree cmd buf while
unregistering PCIe"), but it just fixed the double-free, without
acknowledging the potential for use-after-free.

Make sure to check the number of endpoints to avoid dereferencing a

commit 0088d27b78f2c0118aee82923269518616481ea0 upstream.

This device is a dongle made by Philips to enhance their TVs with wireless capabilities,
but works flawlessly on any upstream kernel, provided that the ath9k_htc module is attached to it.
It's correctly recognized by lsusb as "0471:209e Philips (or NXP) PTA01 Wireless Adapter" and the
patch has been tested on real hardware.

<title>include/linux/kernel.h: change abs() macro so it uses consistent return type</title>

<id>bc11e0dc1d3f642bb1f14e3a29549ae838d7ba0d</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 8f57e4d930d48217268315898212518d4d3e0773 upstream.

Rewrite abs() so that its return type does not depend on the
architecture and no unexpected type conversion happen inside of it.  The
only conversion is from unsigned to signed type.  char is left as a
return type but treated as a signed type regradless of it's actual
signedness.

With the old version, int arguments were promoted to long and depending
on architecture a long argument might result in s64 or long return type
(which may or may not be the same).

This came after some back and forth with Nicolas.  The current macro has
different return type (for the same input type) depending on
architecture which might be midly iritating.

An alternative version would promote to int like so:

	#define abs(x)	__abs_choose_expr(x, long long,			\
			__abs_choose_expr(x, long,			\
			__builtin_choose_expr(				\
				sizeof(x) &lt;= sizeof(int),		\
				({ int __x = (x); __x&lt;0?-__x:__x; }),	\
				((void)0))))

I have no preference but imagine Linus might.  :] Nicolas argument against
is that promoting to int causes iconsistent behaviour:

	int main(void) {
		unsigned short a = 0, b = 1, c = a - b;
		unsigned short d = abs(a - b);
		unsigned short e = abs(c);
		printf("%u %u\n", d, e);  // prints: 1 65535
	}

Then again, no sane person expects consistent behaviour from C integer
arithmetic.  ;)

Note:

  __builtin_types_compatible_p(unsigned char, char) is always false, and
  __builtin_types_compatible_p(signed char, char) is also always false.

<title>ath9k: use correct OTP register offsets for the AR9340 and AR9550</title>

commit c9f1e32600816d695f817477d56490bfc2ba43c6 upstream.

This patch fixes the OTP register definitions for the AR934x and AR9550
WMAC SoC.

Previously, the ath9k driver was unable to initialize the integrated
WMAC on an Aerohive AP121:

| ath: phy0: timeout (1000 us) on reg 0x30018: 0xbadc0ffe &amp; 0x00000007 != 0x00000004
| ath: phy0: timeout (1000 us) on reg 0x30018: 0xbadc0ffe &amp; 0x00000007 != 0x00000004
| ath: phy0: Unable to initialize hardware; initialization status: -5
| ath9k ar934x_wmac: failed to initialize device
| ath9k: probe of ar934x_wmac failed with error -5

It turns out that the AR9300_OTP_STATUS and AR9300_OTP_DATA
definitions contain a typo.
