The flow id (scd_flow) in a compressed BA packet should match the txq_id of the queue from which the aggregated packets were sent. However, in some hardware like the 1000 series, sometimes the flow id is 0 for the txq_id (10 to 19). This can cause the annoying message: [ 2213.306191] iwlagn 0000:01:00.0: Received BA when not expected [ 2213.310178] iwlagn 0000:01:00.0: Read index for DMA queue txq id (0), index 5, is out of range [0-256] 7 7. And even worse, if agg->wait_for_ba is true when the bad BA is arriving, this can cause system hang due to NULL pointer dereference because the code is operating in a wrong tx queue! Signed-off-by:

We are seeing some race conditions between incoming station management requests (station add/remove) and the internal unassoc RXON command that modifies station table. Modify these flows to require the mutex to be held and thus serializing them. This fixes http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2207Signed-off-by:

When we receive a deauthentication frame before having successfully associated, we neither print a message nor abort assocation. The former makes it hard to debug, while the latter later causes a warning in cfg80211 when, as will typically be the case, association timed out. This warning was reported by many, e.g. in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15981, but I couldn't initially pinpoint it. I verified the fix by hacking hostapd to send a deauth frame instead of an association response. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by:

Move the sysfs_create_group to iwl_ucode_callback after we have safely got the firmware. The motivation to do this comes from a warning from lockdep which detected that we request priv->mutex while holding s_active during a sysfs request (show_statistics in the example copy pasted). The reverse order exists upon request_firmware: request_firmware which is a sysfs operation that requires s_active is run under priv->mutex. This ensures that we don't get sysfs request before we finish to request the firmware, avoiding this deadlock. ======================================================= [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] ------------------------------------------------------- cat/2595 is trying to acquire lock: (&priv->mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<facfa598>] show_statistics+0x48/0x100 [iwlagn] but task is already holding lock: (s_active){++++.+}, at: [<c0580ebd>] sysfs_get_active_two+0x1d/0x50 which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #1 (s_active){++++.+}: [<c0489b74>] __lock_acquire+0xc44/0x1230 [<c048a1ed>] lock_acquire+0x8d/0x110 [<c0581499>] sysfs_addrm_finish+0xe9/0x180 [<c057f64a>] sysfs_hash_and_remove+0x4a/0x80 [<c05829d4>] sysfs_remove_group+0x44/0xd0 [<c0714b75>] dpm_sysfs_remove+0x15/0x20 [<c070dac8>] device_del+0x38/0x170 [<c070dc1e>] device_unregister+0x1e/0x60 [<c071838d>] _request_firmware+0x29d/0x550 [<c07186c7>] request_firmware+0x17/0x20 [<fad01bf1>] iwl_mac_start+0xb1/0x1230 [iwlagn] [<fa46ba06>] ieee80211_open+0x436/0x6f0 [mac80211] [<c0808cd2>] dev_open+0x92/0xf0 [<c0808b2b>] dev_change_flags+0x7b/0x190 [<c08148e8>] do_setlink+0x178/0x3b0 [<c0815169>] rtnl_setlink+0xf9/0x130 [<c081453b>] rtnetlink_rcv_msg+0x1bb/0x1f0 [<c0827ce6>] netlink_rcv_skb+0x86/0xa0 [<c081436c>] rtnetlink_rcv+0x1c/0x30 [<c08279c3>] netlink_unicast+0x263/0x290 [<c0828768>] netlink_sendmsg+0x1c8/0x2a0 [<c07f85fd>] sock_sendmsg+0xcd/0x100 [<c07f964d>] sys_sendmsg+0x15d/0x290 [<c07f9e6b>] sys_socketcall+0xeb/0x2a0 [<c040ad9f>] sysenter_do_call+0x12/0x38 -> #0 (&priv->mutex){+.+.+.}: [<c0489f84>] __lock_acquire+0x1054/0x1230 [<c048a1ed>] lock_acquire+0x8d/0x110 [<c08bb358>] __mutex_lock_common+0x58/0x470 [<c08bb84a>] mutex_lock_nested+0x3a/0x50 [<facfa598>] show_statistics+0x48/0x100 [iwlagn] [<c070d219>] dev_attr_show+0x29/0x50 [<c057fecd>] sysfs_read_file+0xdd/0x190 [<c052880f>] vfs_read+0x9f/0x190 [<c0528d22>] sys_read+0x42/0x70 [<c040ad9f>] sysenter_do_call+0x12/0x38 other info that might help us debug this: 3 locks held by cat/2595: #0: (&buffer->mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<c057fe25>] sysfs_read_file+0x35/0x190 #1: (s_active){++++.+}, at: [<c0580ecd>] sysfs_get_active_two+0x2d/0x50 #2: (s_active){++++.+}, at: [<c0580ebd>] sysfs_get_active_two+0x1d/0x50 stack backtrace: Pid: 2595, comm: cat Not tainted 2.6.33-tp-rc4 #2 Call Trace: [<c08b99ab>] ? printk+0x1d/0x22 [<c0487752>] print_circular_bug+0xc2/0xd0 [<c0489f84>] __lock_acquire+0x1054/0x1230 [<c0478d81>] ? sched_clock_cpu+0x121/0x180 [<c048a1ed>] lock_acquire+0x8d/0x110 [<facfa598>] ? show_statistics+0x48/0x100 [iwlagn] [<c08bb358>] __mutex_lock_common+0x58/0x470 [<facfa598>] ? show_statistics+0x48/0x100 [iwlagn] [<c08bb84a>] mutex_lock_nested+0x3a/0x50 [<facfa598>] ? show_statistics+0x48/0x100 [iwlagn] [<facfa598>] show_statistics+0x48/0x100 [iwlagn] [<c0580cf9>] ? sysfs_get_active+0x69/0xb0 [<facfa550>] ? show_statistics+0x0/0x100 [iwlagn] [<c070d219>] dev_attr_show+0x29/0x50 [<c057fecd>] sysfs_read_file+0xdd/0x190 [<c05ff314>] ? security_file_permission+0x14/0x20 [<c0528242>] ? rw_verify_area+0x62/0xd0 [<c052880f>] vfs_read+0x9f/0x190 [<c047745b>] ? up_read+0x1b/0x30 [<c057fdf0>] ? sysfs_read_file+0x0/0x190 [<c04af3b4>] ? audit_syscall_entry+0x1f4/0x220 [<c0528d22>] sys_read+0x42/0x70 [<c040ad9f>] sysenter_do_call+0x12/0x38 Signed-off-by:Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com> Signed-off-by:

Commit 56d1de0a, "ath5k: clean up filter flags setting" introduced a regression in monitor mode such that the promisc filter flag would get lost. Although we set the promisc flag when it changed, we did not preserve it across subsequent calls to configure_filter. This patch restores the original functionality.

Processing an association response could take a bit of time while we set up the hardware etc. During that time, the AP might already send a blockack request. If this happens very quickly on a fairly slow machine, we can end up processing the blockack request before the association processing has finished. Since the blockack processing cannot sleep right now, we also cannot make it wait in the driver. As a result, sometimes on slow machines the iwlagn driver gets totally confused, and no traffic can pass when the aggregation setup was done before the assoc setup completed. I'm working on a proper fix for this, which involves queuing all blockack category action frames from a work struct, and also allowing the ampdu_action driver callback to sleep, which will generally clean up the code and make things easier. However, this is a very involved and complex change. To fix the problem at hand in a way that can also be backported to stable, I've come up with this patch. Here, I simply process all aggregation action frames from the managed interface skb queue, which means their processing will be serialized with processing the association response, thereby fixing the problem.

Daniel reported that the paged RX changes had broken blockack request frame processing due to using data that wasn't really part of the skb data. Fix this using skb_copy_bits() for the needed data. As a side effect, this adds a check on processing too short frames, which previously this code could do. Reported-by:

We can wake all queues after a chip reset since everything should be set up and we are ready to transmit. If we don't do that we might end up starting up with stopped queues, not beeing able to transmit. (This started to happen after "ath5k: clean up queue manipulation" but since periodic calibration also stopped and started the queues this effect was hidden most of the time). This way we can also get rid of the superfluous ath5k_reset_wake() function. Signed-off-by:

It is the last one in the chain of buffers for an aggregate frame that should be checked. Also it misses the initialization of this field in the buffer, this may lead to a situation where we stop the sw retransmission of failed subframes associated to this buffer. Signed-off-by:
