commit 0250ececdf6813457c98719e2d33b3684881fde0 upstream.
Hans de Goede identified a bug in p54p_check_tx_ring:
there are two ring indices. 1 => tx data and 3 => tx management.
But the old code had a constant "1" and this resulted in spurious
dma unmapping failures.

commit bbcbb9ef9735c67da303d30bd6beb9e699f0f508 upstream.
There is a problem if an "internal short scan" is in progress when a
mac80211 requested scan arrives. If this new scan request arrives within
the "next_scan_jiffies" period then driver will immediately return success
and complete the scan. The problem here is that the scan has not been
fully initialized at this time (is_internal_short_scan is still set to true
because of the currently running scan), which results in the scan
completion never to be sent to mac80211. At this time also, evan though the
internal short scan is still running the state (is_internal_short_scan)
will be set to false, so when the internal scan does complete then mac80211
will receive a scan completion.
Fix this by checking right away if a scan is in progress when a scan
request arrives from mac80211.

commit 9e3bd9190800e8209b4a3e1d724c35f0738dcad2 upstream.
This makes the b43 driver just automatically fall back to PIO mode when
DMA doesn't work.
The driver already told the user to do it, so rather than have the user
reload the module with a new flag, just make the driver do it
automatically. We keep the message as an indication that something is
wrong, but now just automatically fall back to the hopefully working PIO
case.

commit b02914af4d7020828ce921a572589dd793517c09 upstream.
If userencounter the "Fatal DMA Problem" with a BCM43XX device, and
still wish to use b43 as the driver, their only option is to rebuild
the kernel with CONFIG_B43_FORCE_PIO. This patch removes this option and
allows PIO mode to be selected with a load-time parameter for the module.
Note that the configuration variable CONFIG_B43_PIO is also removed.
Once the DMA problem with the BCM4312 devices is solved, this patch will
likely be reverted.

commit 2d20c72c021d96f8b9230396c8e3782f204214ec upstream.
An int urb is constructed but we fill it in with a bulk pipe type.
Commit f661c6f8c67bd55e93348f160d590ff9edf08904 implemented a pipe type
check when CONFIG_USB_DEBUG is enabled. The check failed for all the ar9170
usb transfers and the driver could not configure the wifi dongle.
This went unnoticed until now because most people don't have
CONFIG_USB_DEBUG enabled.

commit 8e1a53c615e8efe0fac670f2973da64758748a8a upstream.
IWL_RATE_COUNT is 13 and IWL_RATE_COUNT_LEGACY is 12.
IWL_RATE_COUNT_LEGACY is the right one here because iwl3945_rates
doesn't support 60M and also that's how "rates" is defined in
iwlcore_init_geos() from drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-core.c.
rates = kzalloc((sizeof(struct ieee80211_rate) * IWL_RATE_COUNT_LEGACY),
GFP_KERNEL);

commit 96869a39399269a776a94812e9fff3d38b47d838 upstream
The TKIP key update callback is called from the RX path, where the driver
mutex is already locked. This results in a circular locking bug.
Avoid this by removing the lock.
Johannes noted that there is a separate bug: The callback still breaks on SDIO
hardware, because SDIO hardware access needs to sleep, but we are not allowed
to sleep in the callback due to mac80211's RCU locking.

commit 4fdec031b9169b3c17938b9c4168f099f457169c upstream.
When I initially stumbled upon sequence number problems with PAE frames
in ath9k, I submitted a patch to remove all special cases for PAE
frames and let them go through the normal transmit path.
Out of concern about crypto incompatibility issues, this change was
merged instead:
commit 6c8afef551fef87a3bf24f8a74c69a7f2f72fc82
Author: Sujith <Sujith.Manoharan@atheros.com>
Date: Tue Feb 9 10:07:00 2010 +0530
ath9k: Fix sequence numbers for PAE frames
After a lot of testing, I'm able to reliably trigger a driver crash on
rekeying with current versions with this change in place.
It seems that the driver does not support sending out regular MPDUs with
the same TID while an A-MPDU session is active.
This leads to duplicate entries in the TID Tx buffer, which hits the
following BUG_ON in ath_tx_addto_baw():
index = ATH_BA_INDEX(tid->seq_start, bf->bf_seqno);
cindex = (tid->baw_head + index) & (ATH_TID_MAX_BUFS - 1);
BUG_ON(tid->tx_buf[cindex] != NULL);
I believe until we actually have a reproducible case of an
incompatibility with another AP using no PAE special cases, we should
simply get rid of this mess.
This patch completely fixes my crash issues in STA mode and makes it
stay connected without throughput drops or connectivity issues even
when the AP is configured to a very short group rekey interval.

commit c8406ea8fa1adde8dc5400127281d497bbcdb84a upstream.
Commit a239a8b47cc0e5e6d7416a89f340beac06d5edaa introduced a
noisy message, that fills up the log very fast.
The error seems not to be fatal (the connection is stable and
performance is ok), so make it IWL_DEBUG_TX rather than IWL_ERR.

commit a9f042cbe5284f34ccff15f3084477e11b39b17b upstream.
Since txq->axq_lock may be hold in softirq context, it must be
acquired with spin_lock_bh() instead of spin_lock() if softieq is
enabled.
The patch fixes the lockdep warning below when unloading ath9k modules.

commit a951ae2176b982574ffa197455db6c89359fd5eb upstream.
The beacon sent gating doesn't seem to work with any combination
of flags. Thus, buffered frames tend to stay buffered forever,
using up tx descriptors.
Instead, use the DBA gating and hold transmission of the buffered
frames until 80% of the beacon interval has elapsed using the ready
time. This fixes the following error in AP mode:
ath5k phy0: no further txbuf available, dropping packet
Add a comment to acknowledge that this isn't the best solution.

commit 5d6ce628f986d1a3c523cbb0a5a52095c48cc332 upstream.
When using the external sleep clock in AP mode, the
TSF increments too quickly, causing beacon interval
to be much lower than it is supposed to be, resulting
in lots of beacon-not-ready interrupts.
This fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14802.

commit 86415d43efd4f7093979cfa8a80232114266f1a4 upstream.
I/Q calibration was completely broken, resulting in a high number of CRC errors
on received packets. before i could see around 10% to 20% CRC errors, with this
patch they are between 0% and 3%.
1.) the removal of the mask in commit "ath5k: Fix I/Q calibration
(f1cf2dbd0f798b71b1590e7aca6647f2caef1649)" resulted in no mask beeing used
when writing the I/Q values into the register. additional errors in the
calculation of the values (see 2.) resulted too high numbers, exceeding the
masks, so wrong values like 0xfffffffe were written. to be safe we should
always use the bitmask when writing parts of a register.
2.) using a (s32) cast for q_coff is a wrong conversion to signed, since we
convert to a signed value later by substracting 128. this resulted in too low
numbers for Q many times, which were limited to -16 by the boundary check later
on.
3.) checked everything against the HAL sources and took over comments and minor
optimizations from there.
4.) we can't use ENABLE_BITS when we want to write a number (the number can
contain zeros). also always write the correction values first and set ENABLE
bit last, like the HAL does.

commit 4fa004373133ece3d9b1c0a7e243b0e53760b165 upstream.
Handling HT configuration changes involved setting the channel
with the new HT parameters and then issuing a rate_update()
notification to the driver.
This behavior changed after the off-channel changes. Now, the channel
is not updated with the new HT params in enable_ht() - instead, it
is now done when the scan work terminates. This results in the driver
depending on stale information, defaulting to non-HT mode always.
Fix this by passing the new channel type to the driver.

commit 0866b03c7d7dee8a34ffa527ecda426c0f405518 upstream.
If b43 or b43legacy are deauthenticated or disconnected, there is a
possibility that a reconnection is tried with the queues stopped in
mac80211. To prevent this, start the queues before setting
STAT_INITIALIZED.
In b43, a similar change has been in place (twice) in the
wireless_core_init() routine. Remove the duplicate and add similar
code to b43legacy.

commit 7bfbae10dc10a5c94a780d117a57e875d77e8e5a upstream.
While ath9k does not support RIFS yet, the ability to receive RIFS
frames is currently enabled for most chipsets in the initvals.
This is causing baseband related issues on AR9160 and AR9130 based
chipsets, which can lock up under certain conditions.
This patch fixes these issues by overriding the initvals, effectively
disabling RIFS for all affected chipsets.

commit 5c0ba62fd4b2dce08055a89600f1d834f9f0fe9e upstream.
When selecting the tx fallback rate, rc.c used a separate variable
'nrix' for storing the next rate index, however it did not use that as
reference for further rate index lowering. Because of that, it ended up
reusing the same rate for multiple multi-rate retry stages, thus
decreasing delivery probability under changing link conditions.
This patch removes the separate (unnecessary) variable and fixes
fallback the way it was intended to work.
This should result in increased throughput and better link stability.

commit d8728ee919282c7b01b65cd479ec1e2a9c5d3ba8 upstream.
In AP mode, ath_beacon_config_ap only restarts the timer if a TSF
restart is requested. Apparently this was added, because this function
unconditionally sets the flag for TSF reset.
The problem with this is, that ath9k_hw_reset() clobbers the timer
registers (specified in the initvals), thus effectively disabling the
SWBA interrupt whenever a card reset without TSF reset is issued
(happens in a few places in the code).
This patch fixes ath_beacon_config_ap to only issue the TSF reset flag
when necessary, but reinitialize the timer unconditionally. Tests show,
that this is enough to keep the SWBA interrupt going after a call to
ath_reset()

commit 14acdde6e527950f66c084dbf19bad6fbfcaeedc upstream.
The newer single chip hardware family of chipsets have not been
experiencing issues with power saving set by default with recent
fixes merged (even into stable). The remaining issues are only
reported with AR5416 and since enabling PS by default can increase
power savings considerably best to take advantage of that feature
as this has been tested properly.
For more details on this issue see the bug report:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14267
We leave AR5416 with PS disabled by default, that seems to require
some more work.

The HT extension channel settings require priv->staging_rxon.channel to be
accurate. However, iwl_set_rxon_ht was being called before iwl_set_rxon_channel
and thus HT40 could be broken unless another call to iwl_mac_config came in.
This problem was recently introduced by "iwlwifi: Fix to set correct ht
configuration"
The particular setting in which I noticed this was monitor mode:
iwconfig wlan0 mode monitor
ifconfig wlan0 up
./iw wlan0 set channel 64 HT40-
#./iw wlan0 set channel 64 HT40-
tcpdump -i wlan0 -y IEEE802_11_RADIO
would only catch HT40 packets if I issued the IW command twice.
From visual inspection, iwl_set_rxon_channel does not depend on
iwl_set_rxon_ht, so simply swapping them should be safe and fixes this problem.

Commit c7ab5ef9bcd281135c21b4732c9be779585181be entitled "b43: implement
short slot and basic rate handling" reduced the transmit throughput for
my BCM4311 device from 18 Mb/s to 0.7 Mb/s. The basic rate handling
portion is OK, the problem is in the short slot handling.
Prior to this change, the short slot enable/disable routines were never
called. Experimentation showed that the critical part was changing the
value at offset 0x0010 in the shared memory. This is supposed to contain
the 802.11 Slot Time in usec, but if it is changed from its initial value
of zero, performance is destroyed. On the other hand, changing the value
in the MMIO register corresponding to the Interframe Slot Time increased
performance from 18 to 22 Mb/s. A BCM4306/3 also shows dramatic
improvement of the transmit rate from 5.3 to 19.0 Mb/s.
Other changes in the patch include removal of the magic number for the
MMIO register, and allowing the slot time to be set for any PHY operating
in the 2.4 GHz band. Previously, the routine was executed only for G PHYs.
