When DEBUG_SPI is included in the debug log level wl1271_spi_reset() will dump the already freed memory instead of the SPI buffer.

While unloading the driver, the ps_usecount is incremented before configuring gpio registers in deinit_device. But it is failed to restore the ps_usecount after that. The problem is that the chip is forcibly moved to FULL SLEEP by radio_disable when mac80211 is reporting as idle though ps_usecount is not zero. This patch retores ps_usecount properly and ensures that the chip is always moved to full sleep only if ps usage count is zero which also helps in debugging deadbeef on multivif case. And also fixes the following warning. ath: DMA failed to stop in 10 ms AR_CR=0xdeadbeef AR_DIAG_SW=0xdeadbeef ath: Could not stop RX, we could be confusing the DMA engine when we start RX up ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: at drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/recv.c:536 ath_stoprecv+0xf4/0x100 [ath9k]() Cc: stable@kernel.org Cc: Paul Stewart <pstew@google.com> Signed-off-by: Rajkumar Manoharan <rmanoharan@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

The bit 6 & 7 of AR_WA (0x4004) should be enabled only for the chips that are supporting L0s functionality while resuming back from S3/S4. Enabling these bits for AR9280 is causing system hang within a few S3/S4-resume cycles.

Review spotted a problem with the error handling in ath5k_hw_dma_stop: a successful return from ath5k_hw_stop_tx_dma will be treated as an error, so we always bail out of the loop after processing a single active queue.

Some drivers (e.g. ath9k) do not always disable beacons when they're supposed to. When an interface is changed using the change_interface op, the mode specific sdata part is in an undefined state and trying to get a beacon at this point can produce weird crashes. To fix this, add a check for ieee80211_sdata_running before using anything from the sdata. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: John W.

In drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/pci.c::_rtl_pci_rx_interrupt() we call dev_alloc_skb(), which may fail and return NULL, but we do not check the returned value against NULL before dereferencing the returned pointer. This may lead to a NULL pointer dereference which means we'll crash - not good. In a separate call to dev_alloc_skb(), the debug level is changed so that the failure message will always be logged.

There are several places where ath_reset() was called without proper calls to ath9k_ps_wakeup/ath9k_ps_restore. To fix this, add those calls directly to ath_reset and drop them from callers where it makes sense. Also add them to the config callback around ath_update_txpow to fix a crash that happens when the tx power changed before any vif is brought up.

For example downlink (RX) throughput against an AR9280 AP can vary widlely from 43-73 Mbit/s while disabling this gets AR9382 (2x2) up to around 93 Mbit/s in a 2.4 GHz HT20 setup.

The conn->sec_level value is supposed to represent the current level of security that the connection has. However, by assigning to it before requesting authentication it will have the wrong value during the authentication procedure. To fix this a pending_sec_level variable is added which is used to track the desired security level while making sure that sec_level always represents the current level of security.

When there is an existing connection l2cap_check_security needs to be called to ensure that the security level of the new socket is fulfilled. Normally l2cap_do_start takes care of this, but that function doesn't get called for SOCK_RAW type sockets.

The logic for determining the needed auth_type for an L2CAP socket is rather complicated and has so far been duplicated in l2cap_check_security as well as l2cap_do_connect. Additionally the l2cap_check_security code was completely missing the handling of SOCK_RAW type sockets. This patch creates a unified function for the evaluation and makes l2cap_do_connect and l2cap_check_security use that function.

This reverts commit 04530982. That commit is wrong for two reasons: - The conn->sec_level shouldn't be updated without performing authentication first (as it's supposed to represent the level of security that the existing connection has) - A higher auth_type value doesn't mean "more secure" like the commit seems to assume. E.g. dedicated bonding with MITM protection is 0x03 whereas general bonding without MITM protection is 0x04. hci_conn_auth already takes care of updating conn->auth_type so hci_connect doesn't need to do it.

The power detector adc offset calibration has to be done on 4 minutes interval (longcal * pa_skip_count). But the commit "ath9k_hw: fix a noise floor calibration related race condition" makes the PA calibration executed more frequently beased on nfcal_pending value. Running PAOffset calibration lesser than longcal interval doesn't help anything and the worse part is that it causes NF load timeouts and RX deaf conditions. In a very noisy environment, where the distance b/w AP & station is ~10 meter and running a downlink udp traffic with frequent background scan causes "Timeout while waiting for nf to load: AR_PHY_AGC_CONTROL=0x40d1a" and moves the chip into deaf state. This issue was originaly reported in Android platform where the network-manager application does bgscan more frequently on AR9271 chips. (AR9285 family usb device).

Since the introduction of the fixes for the reorder timer, mac80211 will cause lockdep warnings because lockdep confuses local->skb_queue and local->rx_skb_queue and treats their lock as the same. However, their locks are different, and are valid in different contexts (the former is used in IRQ context, the latter in BH only) and the only thing to be done is mark the former as a different lock class so that lockdep can tell the difference.

pcmcia_request_irq() and pcmcia_enable_device() are intended to be called from process context (first function allocate memory with GFP_KERNEL, second take a mutex). We can not take spin lock and call them. It's safe to move spin lock after pcmcia_enable_device() as we still hold off IRQ until dev->base_addr is 0 and driver will not proceed with interrupts when is not ready.

This is an attempt to fix a long standing open bug: http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1334 The interrupt handler checks for INTA being -1, apparently that means that the hardware is gone. But the interrupt handler defers actual interrupt processing to a tasklet. By the time the tasklet is run and checks INTA again, the hardware might be gone and INTA be -1, which confuses the driver because all event bits are set. The patch applies to 2.6.37.
