commit fb239c1209bb0f0b4830cc72507cc2f2d63fadbd upstream.

In _rtl92c_get_txpower_writeval_by_regulatory() the variable writeVal
is assigned to itself in an if ... else statement, apparently only to
document that the branch condition is handled and that a previously read
value should be returned unmodified. The self-assignment causes clang to
raise the following warning:

drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtlwifi/rtl8192cu/rf.c:304:13:
  error: explicitly assigning value of variable of type 'u32'
    (aka 'unsigned int') to itself [-Werror,-Wself-assign]
  writeVal = writeVal;

Delete the branch with the self-assignment.

<title>ath10k: Fix kernel panic while using worker (ath10k_sta_rc_update_wk)</title>

[ Upstream commit 8b2d93dd22615cb7f3046a5a2083a6f8bb8052ed ]

When attempt to run worker (ath10k_sta_rc_update_wk) after the station object
(ieee80211_sta) delete will trigger the kernel panic.

This problem arise in AP + Mesh configuration, Where the current node AP VAP
and neighbor node mesh VAP MAC address are same. When the current mesh node
try to establish the mesh link with neighbor node, driver peer creation for
the neighbor mesh node fails due to duplication MAC address. Already the AP
VAP created with same MAC address.

It is caused by the following scenario steps.

Steps:
1. In above condition, ath10k driver sta_state callback (ath10k_sta_state)
   fails to do the state change for a station from IEEE80211_STA_NOTEXIST
   to IEEE80211_STA_NONE due to peer creation fails. Sta_state callback is
   called from ieee80211_add_station() to handle the new station
   (neighbor mesh node) request from the wpa_supplicant.
2. Concurrently ath10k receive the sta_rc_update callback notification from
   the mesh_neighbour_update() to handle the beacon frames of the above
   neighbor mesh node. since its atomic callback, ath10k driver queue the
   work (ath10k_sta_rc_update_wk) to handle rc update.
3. Due to driver sta_state callback fails (step 1), mac80211 free the station
   object.
4. When the worker (ath10k_sta_rc_update_wk) scheduled to run, it will access
   the station object which is already deleted. so it will trigger kernel
   panic.

Added the peer exist check in sta_rc_update callback before queue the work.

commit 7eccb738fce57cbe53ed903ccf43f9ab257b15b3 upstream.

Rx data frames notified through HTT_T2H_MSG_TYPE_RX_IND and
HTT_T2H_MSG_TYPE_RX_FRAG_IND expect PN/TSC check to be done
on host (mac80211) rather than firmware. Rebuild cipher header
in every received data frames (that are notified through those
HTT interfaces) from the rx_hdr_status tlv available in the
rx descriptor of the first msdu. Skip setting RX_FLAG_IV_STRIPPED
flag for the packets which requires mac80211 PN/TSC check support
and set appropriate RX_FLAG for stripped crypto tail. Hw QCA988X,
QCA9887, QCA99X0, QCA9984, QCA9888 and QCA4019 currently need the
rebuilding of cipher header to perform PN/TSC check for replay
attack.

Please note that removing crypto tail for CCMP-256, GCMP and GCMP-256 ciphers
in raw mode needs to be fixed. Since Rx with these ciphers in raw
mode does not work in the current form even without this patch and
removing crypto tail for these chipers needs clean up, raw mode related
issues in CCMP-256, GCMP and GCMP-256 can be addressed in follow up
patches.

commit 2f38c3c01de945234d23dd163e3528ccb413066d upstream.

Chipset from QCA99X0 onwards (QCA99X0, QCA9984, QCA4019 &amp; future)
rx_hdr_status is not padded to align in 4-byte boundary. Define a
new hw_params field to handle different alignment behaviour between
different hw. This patch fixes improper retrieval of rfc1042 header
with QCA4019. This patch along with "ath10k: Properly remove padding
from the start of rx payload" will fix traffic failure in ethernet
decap mode for QCA4019.

commit 2f38c3c01de945234d23dd163e3528ccb413066d upstream.

Chipset from QCA99X0 onwards (QCA99X0, QCA9984, QCA4019 &amp; future)
rx_hdr_status is not padded to align in 4-byte boundary. Define a
new hw_params field to handle different alignment behaviour between
different hw. This patch fixes improper retrieval of rfc1042 header
with QCA4019. This patch along with "ath10k: Properly remove padding
from the start of rx payload" will fix traffic failure in ethernet
decap mode for QCA4019.

<title>mac80211: allow not sending MIC up from driver for HW crypto</title>

commit f980ebc058c2fa2a552e495db1de0b330082ab70 upstream.

When HW crypto is used, there's no need for the CCMP/GCMP MIC to
be available to mac80211, and the hardware might have removed it
already after checking. The MIC is also useless to have when the
frame is already decrypted, so allow indicating that it's not
present.

Since we are running out of bits in mac80211_rx_flags, make
the flags field a u64.

<title>Revert "ath10k: send (re)assoc peer command when NSS changed"</title>

commit 55cc11da69895a680940c1733caabc37be685f5e upstream.

This reverts commit 55884c045d31a29cf69db8332d1064a1b61dd159.

When Ath10k is in AP mode and an unassociated STA sends a VHT action frame
(Operating Mode Notification for the NSS change) periodically to AP this causes
ath10k to call ath10k_station_assoc() which sends WMI_PEER_ASSOC_CMDID during
NSS update. Over the time (with a certain client it can happen within 15 mins
when there are over 500 of these VHT action frames) continuous calls of
WMI_PEER_ASSOC_CMDID cause firmware to assert due to resource exhaust.

To my knowledge setting WMI_PEER_NSS peer param itself enough to handle NSS
updates and no need to call ath10k_station_assoc(). So revert the original
commit from 2014 as it's unclear why the change was really needed.
Now the firmware assert doesn't happen anymore.

Issue observed in QCA9984 platform with firmware version:10.4-3.5.3-00053.
This Change tested in QCA9984 with firmware version: 10.4-3.5.3-00053 and

This reverts commit 55884c045d31a29cf69db8332d1064a1b61dd159.

When Ath10k is in AP mode and an unassociated STA sends a VHT action frame

ath10k to call ath10k_station_assoc() which sends WMI_PEER_ASSOC_CMDID during

WMI_PEER_ASSOC_CMDID cause firmware to assert due to resource exhaust.

To my knowledge setting WMI_PEER_NSS peer param itself enough to handle NSS
updates and no need to call ath10k_station_assoc(). So revert the original
commit from 2014 as it's unclear why the change was really needed.
Now the firmware assert doesn't happen anymore.

commit a34d0a0da1abae46a5f6ebd06fb0ec484ca099d9 upstream.

In an RFC patch, Sven Eckelmann and Simon Wunderlich reported:

"QCA 802.11n chips (especially AR9330/AR9340) sometimes end up in a
state in which a read of AR_CFG always returns 0xdeadbeef.
This should not happen when when the power_mode of the device is
ATH9K_PM_AWAKE."

Include the check for the default register state in the existing MAC
hang check.

commit 7972326a26b5bf8dc2adac575c4e03ee7e9d193a upstream.

This can be reproduced by bind/unbind the driver multiple times
in AM3517 board.

Analysis revealed that rtl8187_start() was invoked before probe
finishes(ie. before the mutex is initialized).

 INFO: trying to register non-static key.
 the code is fine but needs lockdep annotation.
 turning off the locking correctness validator.

[ Upstream commit ac1181c60822292176ab96912208ec9f9819faf8 ]

Currently the less than zero error check on ret is incorrect
as it is checking a far earlier ret assignment rather than the
return from the call to wl1251_acx_arp_ip_filter. Fix this by
adding in the missing assginment.

Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1164835 ("Logically dead code")

Fixes: 204cc5c44fb6 ("wl1251: implement hardware ARP filtering")
