commit 3b9ea7206d7e1fdd7419cbd10badd3b2c80d04b4 upstream.

When transmitting to a receiver in dynamic SMPS mode, all transmissions that
use multiple spatial streams need to be sent using CTS-to-self or RTS/CTS to
give the receiver's extra chains some time to wake up.
This fixes the tx rate getting stuck at &lt;= MCS7 for some clients, especially
Intel ones, which make aggressive use of SMPS.

<title>ath10k: fix wmi mgmt tx queue full due to race condition</title>

[ Upstream commit b55379e343a3472c35f4a1245906db5158cab453 ]

Failed to transmit wmi management frames:

[84977.840894] ath10k_snoc a000000.wifi: wmi mgmt tx queue is full
[84977.840913] ath10k_snoc a000000.wifi: failed to transmit packet, dropping: -28
[84977.840924] ath10k_snoc a000000.wifi: failed to submit frame: -28
[84977.840932] ath10k_snoc a000000.wifi: failed to transmit frame: -28

This issue is caused by race condition between skb_dequeue and
__skb_queue_tail. The queue of ‘wmi_mgmt_tx_queue’ is protected by a
different lock: ar-&gt;data_lock vs list-&gt;lock, the result is no protection.
So when ath10k_mgmt_over_wmi_tx_work() and ath10k_mac_tx_wmi_mgmt()
running concurrently on different CPUs, there appear to be a rare corner
cases when the queue length is 1,

  CPUx (skb_deuque)			CPUy (__skb_queue_tail)
					next=list
					prev=list
  struct sk_buff *skb = skb_peek(list);	WRITE_ONCE(newsk-&gt;next, next);
  WRITE_ONCE(list-&gt;qlen, list-&gt;qlen - 1);WRITE_ONCE(newsk-&gt;prev, prev);
  next       = skb-&gt;next;		WRITE_ONCE(next-&gt;prev, newsk);
  prev       = skb-&gt;prev;		WRITE_ONCE(prev-&gt;next, newsk);
  skb-&gt;next  = skb-&gt;prev = NULL;	list-&gt;qlen++;
  WRITE_ONCE(next-&gt;prev, prev);
  WRITE_ONCE(prev-&gt;next, next);

If the instruction ‘next = skb-&gt;next’ is executed before
‘WRITE_ONCE(prev-&gt;next, newsk)’, newsk will be lost, as CPUx get the
old ‘next’ pointer, but the length is still added by one. The final
result is the length of the queue will reach the maximum value but
the queue is empty.

So remove ar-&gt;data_lock, and use 'skb_queue_tail' instead of
'__skb_queue_tail' to prevent the potential race condition. Also switch
to use skb_queue_len_lockless, in case we queue a few SKBs simultaneously.

<title>wlcore: Fix command execute failure 19 for wl12xx</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit cb88d01b67383a095e3f7caeb4cdade5a6cf0417 ]

We can currently get a "command execute failure 19" error on beacon loss
if the signal is weak:

wlcore: Beacon loss detected. roles:0xff
wlcore: Connection loss work (role_id: 0).
...
wlcore: ERROR command execute failure 19
...
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1552 at drivers/net/wireless/ti/wlcore/main.c:803
...
(wl12xx_queue_recovery_work.part.0 [wlcore])
(wl12xx_cmd_role_start_sta [wlcore])
(wl1271_op_bss_info_changed [wlcore])
(ieee80211_prep_connection [mac80211])

Error 19 is defined as CMD_STATUS_WRONG_NESTING from the wlcore firmware,
and seems to mean that the firmware no longer wants to see the quirk
handling for WLCORE_QUIRK_START_STA_FAILS done.

This quirk got added with commit 18eab430700d ("wlcore: workaround
start_sta problem in wl12xx fw"), and it seems that this already got fixed
in the firmware long time ago back in 2012 as wl18xx never had this quirk
in place to start with.

As we no longer even support firmware that early, to me it seems that it's
safe to just drop WLCORE_QUIRK_START_STA_FAILS to fix the error. Looks
like earlier firmware got disabled back in 2013 with commit 0e284c074ef9
("wl12xx: increase minimum singlerole firmware version required").

If it turns out we still need WLCORE_QUIRK_START_STA_FAILS with any
firmware that the driver works with, we can simply revert this patch and
add extra checks for firmware version used.

With this fix wlcore reconnects properly after a beacon loss.

Loop 4 times with index i

the copy of the table to coef is currently implemented the wrong way
around, table is being updated from uninitialized values in coeff.

If we get into a problem severe enough to attempt a reprobe,
we schedule a worker to do that. However, if the problem gets
more severe and the device is actually destroyed before this
worker has a chance to run, we use a free device. Bump up the
reference count of the device until the worker runs to avoid
this situation.

[ Upstream commit 3d372c4edfd4dffb7dea71c6b096fb414782b776 ]

If we spin for a long time in memory reads that (for some reason in
hardware) take a long time, then we'll eventually get messages such
as

  watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#2 stuck for 24s! [kworker/2:2:272]

This is because the reading really does take a very long time, and
we don't schedule, so we're hogging the CPU with this task, at least
if CONFIG_PREEMPT is not set, e.g. with CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY=y.

Previously I misinterpreted the situation and thought that this was
only going to happen if we had interrupts disabled, and then fixed
this (which is good anyway, however), but that didn't always help;
looking at it again now I realized that the spin unlock will only
reschedule if CONFIG_PREEMPT is used.

In order to avoid this issue, change the code to cond_resched() if
we've been spinning for too long here.

<title>iwlwifi: pcie: use jiffies for memory read spin time limit</title>

[ Upstream commit 6701317476bbfb1f341aa935ddf75eb73af784f9 ]

There's no reason to use ktime_get() since we don't need any better
precision than jiffies, and since we no longer disable interrupts
around this code (when grabbing NIC access), jiffies will work fine.
Use jiffies instead of ktime_get().

This cleanup is preparation for the following patch "iwlwifi: pcie: reschedule
in long-running memory reads". The code gets simpler with the weird clock use
etc. removed before we add cond_resched().
