commit 5efac94999ff218e0101f67a059e44abb4b0b523 upstream.
The ath9k rate control algorithm has various architectural
issues that make it a poor fit in scenarios like congested
environments etc.
An example: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=927191
Change the default to minstrel which is more robust in such cases.
The ath9k RC code is left in the driver for now, maybe it can
be removed altogether later on.

commit 531671cb17af07281e6f28c1425f754346e65c41 upstream.
Almost all the DMA issues which have plagued ath9k (in station mode)
for years are related to PS. Disabling PS usually "fixes" the user's
connection stablility. Reports of DMA problems are still trickling in
and are sitting in the kernel bugzilla. Until the PS code in ath9k is
given a thorough review, disbale it by default. The slight increase
in chip power consumption is a small price to pay for improved link
stability.

commit e0e29b683d6784ef59bbc914eac85a04b650e63c upstream.
The module parameter "fwpostfix" is userspace controllable, unfiltered,
and is used to define the firmware filename. b43_do_request_fw() populates
ctx->errors[] on error, containing the firmware filename. b43err()
parses its arguments as a format string. For systems with b43 hardware,
this could lead to a uid-0 to ring-0 escalation.

commit 73b82bf0bfbf58e6ff328d3726934370585f6e78 upstream.
Add handling of rx descriptor underflow. This fixes a fault that could
happen on slow machines, where data is received faster than the CPU can
handle. In such a case the device will use up all rx descriptors and
refuse to send any more data before confirming that it is ok. This
patch enables necessary interrupt to discover such a situation and will
handle them by dropping everything in the ring buffer.

commit ccd384b10420ac81ba3fb9b0a7d18272c7173552 upstream.
A small bug in this code was causing the ALLMULTI filter to be set
when in fact we were just wanting to program a selective multicast list
to the hardware.
Fix that bug and remove a redundant if condition in the code that
follows.
This fixes wakeup behaviour when multicast WOL is enabled. Previously,
all multicast packets would wake up the system. Now, only those that the
host intended to receive trigger wakeups.

commit 48795424acff7215d5eac0b52793a2c1eb3a6283 upstream.
When the XO-4 with 8787 wireless is woken up due to wake-on-WLAN
mwifiex is often flooded with "not allowed while suspended" messages
and the interface is unusable.
[ 202.171609] int: sdio_ireg = 0x1
[ 202.180700] info: mwifiex_process_hs_config: auto cancelling host

[ 202.201880] event: wakeup device...
[ 202.211452] event: hs_deactivated
[ 202.514638] info: --- Rx: Data packet ---

[ 202.514825] PREP_CMD: device in suspended state
[ 202.514839] data: dequeuing the packet ec7248c0 ec4869c0
[ 202.514886] mwifiex_write_data_sync: not allowed while suspended
[ 202.514886] host_to_card, write iomem (1) failed: -1

[ 202.514949] mwifiex_write_data_sync: not allowed while suspended
[ 202.514965] host_to_card, write iomem (3) failed: -1
[ 202.514976] mwifiex_write_data_async failed: 0xFFFFFFFF
This can be readily reproduced when putting the XO-4 in a loop where
it goes to sleep due to inactivity, but then wakes up due to an
incoming ping. The error is hit within an hour or two.
This issue happens when an interrupt comes in early while host sleep
is still activated. Driver handles this case by auto cancelling host
sleep. However is_suspended flag is still set which prevents any cmd
or data from being sent to firmware. Fix it by clearing is_suspended
flag in this path.

commit 4ef69d0394cba8caa9f75d3f2e53429bfb8b3045 upstream.
If no keycache slots are available, ath_key_config can return -ENOSPC.
If the key index is not checked for errors, it can lead to logspam that
looks like this: "ath: wiphy0: keyreset: keycache entry 228 out of range"
This can cause follow-up errors if the invalid keycache index gets
used for tx.

commit 2e1253d640eb7f8707d2591c93097c1e9f9c71d5 upstream.
When calculating "offset" for final RSSI calibration we're using numbers
bigger than s8 can hold. We have for example:
offset[j] = 232 - poll_results[j];
formula. If poll_results[j] is small enough (it usually is) we treat
number's bit as a sign bit. For example 232 - 1 becomes:
0xE8 - 0x1 = 0xE7, which is not 231 but -25.
This code was introduced in e0c9a0219a8f542e3946fe972a68aacf8c3f906c
and caused stability regression on some cards, for ex. BCM4322.

commit b251412db99ccd4495ce372fec7daee27bf06923 upstream.
Intermittently, b43 will report "Out of order TX status report on DMA ring".
When this happens, the driver must be reset before communication can resume.
The cause of the problem is believed to be an error in the closed-source
firmware; however, all versions of the firmware are affected.
This change uses the observation that the expected status is always 2 less
than the observed value, and supplies a fake status report to skip one
header/data pair.
Not all devices suffer from this problem, but it can occur several times
per second under heavy load. As each occurence kills the unmodified driver,
this patch makes if possible for the affected devices to function. The patch
logs only the first instance of the reset operation to prevent spamming
the logs.

commit e67dd874e60529dbd2e8232babb1e23479ba2ffa upstream.
We're using "mind" variable to find the VCM that got the best polling
results. For each VCM we calculte "currd" which is compared to the
"mind". For PHY rev3+ "currd" gets values around 14k-40k. Looking for a
value smaller than 40 makes no sense, so increase the initial value.
This fixes a regression introduced in 3.4 by commit:

commit 74632d11a133b5baf6b9d622dd19d2f944d93d94 upstream.
The commit 'ath9k_hw: fix calibration issues on chainmask that don't
include chain 0' changed the hardware chainmask to the chip chainmask
for the duration of the calibration, but the revert to user
configuration in the reset path runs too early.
That causes some issues with limiting the number of antennas (including
spurious failure in hardware-generated packets).
Fix this by reverting the chainmask after the essential parts of the
calibration that need the workaround, and before NF calibration is run.

commit 3412f2f086ea7531378fabe756bd4a1109994ae6 upstream.
On many different chips, important aspects of the MAC state are not
fully cleared by a warm reset. This can show up as tx/rx hangs, those
annoying "DMA failed to stop in 10 ms..." messages or other quirks.
On AR933x, the chip can occasionally get stuck in a way that only a
driver unload/reload or a reboot would bring it back to life.
With this patch, a full reset is issued when bringing the chip out of
FULL-SLEEP state (after idle), or if either Rx or Tx was not shut down
properly. This makes the DMA related error messages disappear completely
in my tests on AR933x, and the chip does not get stuck anymore.

separately
commit bc6b89237acb3dee6af6e64e51a18255fef89cc2 upstream.
rtlwifi allocates both setup_packet and data buffer of control message urb,
using shared kmalloc in _usbctrl_vendorreq_async_write. Structure used for
allocating is:
struct {
u8 data[254];
struct usb_ctrlrequest dr;
};
Because 'struct usb_ctrlrequest' is __packed, setup packet is unaligned and
DMA mapping of both 'data' and 'dr' confuses ARM/sunxi, leading to memory
corruptions and freezes.
Patch changes setup packet to be allocated separately.

commit ccae0e50c16a7f7adb029c169147400d1ce9f703 upstream.
Bastian Bittorf reported that some of the silent freezes on a Linksys WRT54G
were due to overflow of the RX DMA ring buffer, which was created with 64
slots. That finding reminded me that I was seeing similar crashed on a netbook,
which also has a relatively slow processor. After increasing the number of
slots to 128, runs on the netbook that previously failed now worked; however,
I found that 109 slots had been used in one test. For that reason, the number
of slots is being increased to 256.

commit a5ffbe0a1993a27072742ef7db6cf9839956fce9 upstream.
Kernel commits 41affd5 and 6539306 changed the locking in rtl_lps_leave()
from a spinlock to a mutex by doing the calls indirectly from a work queue
to reduce the time that interrupts were disabled. This change was fine for
most systems; however a scheduling while atomic bug was reported in
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=903881. The backtrace indicates
that routine rtl_is_special(), which calls rtl_lps_leave() in three places
was entered in atomic context. These direct calls are replaced by putting a
request on the appropriate work queue.

commit 1adb2e2b5f85023d17eb4f95386a57029df27c88 upstream.
When the next beacon is sent, the ath_buf from the previous run is reused.
If getting a new beacon from mac80211 fails, bf->bf_mpdu is not reset, yet
the skb is freed, leading to a double-free on the next beacon tx attempt,
resulting in a system crash.

commit 0981c3b24ef664f5611008a6e6d0622fac6d892b upstream.
SKBs that are allocated in the HTC layer do not have callbacks
registered and hence ended up not being freed, Fix this by freeing
them properly in the TX completion routine.

commit 5e20a4b53094651d80f856ff55a916b999dbb57a upstream.
Recent versions of udev cause synchronous firmware loading from the
probe routine to fail because the request to user space would time
out. The original fix for b43 (commit 6b6fa58) moved the firmware
load from the probe routine to a work queue, but it still used synchronous
firmware loading. This method is OK when b43 is built as a module;
however, it fails when the driver is compiled into the kernel.
This version changes the code to load the initial firmware file
using request_firmware_nowait(). A completion event is used to
hold the work queue until that file is available. This driver
reads several firmware files - the remainder can be read synchronously.
On some test systems, the async read fails; however, a following synch
read works, thus the async failure falls through to the sync try.

commit 9c969d8ccb1e17bd20742f4ac9f00c1a64487234 upstream.
wait_event_interruptible function returns -ERESTARTSYS if it's
interrupted by a signal. Driver should check the return value
and handle this case properly.
In mwifiex_wait_queue_complete() routine, as we are now checking
wait_event_interruptible return value, the condition check is not
required. Also, we have removed mwifiex_cancel_pending_ioctl()
call to avoid a chance of sending second command to FW by other path
as soon as we clear current command node. FW can not handle two
commands simultaneously.

commit b7c0c238898d200e80487516e2b67aba2a522cc0 upstream.
While AR_PHY_CCA_NOM_VAL_* does contain the expected internal noise floor
for a chip measured in clean air, it refers to the lowest expected reading.
Depending on the frequency, this measurement can vary by about 6db, thus
causing a higher reported channel noise and signal strength.
Factor in the 6db offset when converting internal noisefloor to channel noise.
This patch makes the reported values more accurate for all chips without
affecting NF calibration behavior.

"ath9k_hw: Updated AR9003 tx gain table for 5GHz" was not enough to
bring the tx power back to normal levels on devices like the
Buffalo WZR-HP-G450H, this one needs to be reverted as well.
