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.

[ Upstream commit ee0a47186e2fa9aa1c56cadcea470ca0ba8c8692 ]

When the user sets count to zero the string buffer would remain
completely uninitialized which causes the kernel to parse its
own stack data, potentially leading to an info leak. In addition
to that, the string might be not terminated properly when the
user data does not contain a 0-terminator.

<title>iwlwifi: mvm: cleanup pending frames in DQA mode</title>

[ Upstream commit 9a3fcf912ef7f5c6e18f9af6875dd13f7311f7aa ]

When a station is asleep, the fw will set it as "asleep".
All queues that are used only by one station will be stopped by
the fw.

In pre-DQA mode this was relevant for aggregation queues. However,
in DQA mode a queue is owned by one station only, so all queues
will be stopped.
As a result, we don't expect to get filtered frames back to
mac80211 and don't have to maintain the entire pending_frames
state logic, the same way as we do in aggregations.

The correct behavior is to align DQA behavior with the aggregation
queue behaviour pre-DQA:
- Don't count pending frames.
- Let mac80211 know we have frames in these queues so that it can
properly handle trigger frames.

When a trigger frame is received, mac80211 tells the driver to send
frames from the queues using release_buffered_frames.
The driver will tell the fw to let frames out even if the station
is asleep. This is done by iwl_mvm_sta_modify_sleep_tx_count.

commit 5c3de777bdaf48bd0cfb43097c0d0fb85056cab7 upstream.

In the function brcmf_sdio_firmware_callback() the driver is
unbound from the sdio function devices in the error path.
However, the order in which it is done resulted in a use-after-free
issue (see brcmf_ops_sdio_remove() in bcmsdh.c). Hence change
the order and first unbind sdio function #2 device and then
unbind sdio function #1 device.

[ Upstream commit 097e46d2ae90265d1afe141ba6208ba598b79e01 ]

ath10k_wmi_tlv_op_pull_fw_stats() uses tb = ath10k_wmi_tlv_parse_alloc(...)
function, which allocates memory. If any of the three error-paths are
taken, this tb needs to be freed.

[ Upstream commit d2e202c06ca42d353d95df12437740921a6d05b5 ]

With command to get board_id from otp, in the case of following

  boot get otp board id result 0x00000000 board_id 0 chip_id 0
  boot using board name 'bus=pci,bmi-chip-id=0,bmi-board-id=0"
  ...
  failed to fetch board data for bus=pci,bmi-chip-id=0,bmi-board-id=0 from
  ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/board-2.bin

The invalid board_id=0 will be used as index to search in the board-2.bin.

Ignore the case with board_id=0, as it means the otp is not carrying
the board id information.

<title>ath10k: fix incorrect txpower set by P2P_DEVICE interface</title>

[ Upstream commit 88407beb1b1462f706a1950a355fd086e1c450b6 ]

Ath10k reports the phy capability that supports P2P_DEVICE interface.

When we use the P2P supported wpa_supplicant to start connection, it'll
create two interfaces, one is wlan0 (vdev_id=0) and one is P2P_DEVICE
p2p-dev-wlan0 which is for p2p control channel (vdev_id=1).

	ath10k_pci mac vdev create 0 (add interface) type 2 subtype 0
	ath10k_add_interface: vdev_id: 0, txpower: 0, bss_power: 0
	...
	ath10k_pci mac vdev create 1 (add interface) type 2 subtype 1
	ath10k_add_interface: vdev_id: 1, txpower: 0, bss_power: 0

And the txpower in per vif bss_conf will only be set to valid tx power when
the interface is assigned with channel_ctx.

But this P2P_DEVICE interface will never be used for any connection, so
that the uninitialized bss_conf.txpower=0 is assinged to the
arvif-&gt;txpower when interface created.

Since the txpower configuration is firmware per physical interface.
So the smallest txpower of all vifs will be the one limit the tx power
of the physical device, that causing the low txpower issue on other
active interfaces.

	wlan0: Limiting TX power to 21 (24 - 3) dBm
	ath10k_pci mac vdev_id 0 txpower 21
	ath10k_mac_txpower_recalc: vdev_id: 1, txpower: 0
	ath10k_mac_txpower_recalc: vdev_id: 0, txpower: 21
	ath10k_pci mac txpower 0

This issue only happens when we use the wpa_supplicant that supports
P2P or if we use the iw tool to create the control P2P_DEVICE interface.
