commit 1e2f9295f4c657500111514f92a3d3894d0e05b4 upstream.
Fast Channel Change across bands was enabled for
AR9462 recently, but this is causing baseband issues.
Disable it until this feature is tested well. Also,
remove the feature bit for AR9565 since it is
a single-band card and doesn't support this feature.

commit ff9a93f2ebb88ac7aab9568de80b64b92078e96d upstream.
Accessing the current channel definition in mac80211
when processing RX packets is problematic because it
could have been updated when a scan is issued. Since a
channel change involves flushing the existing packets
in the RX queue before a chip-reset is done, they would
be processed using the wrong band/channel information.
To avoid this, use the current channel information
maintained in the driver.

commit 64e5acb09ca6b50c97299cff9ef51299470b29f2 upstream.
Use the right function to update frequency value.
If rx skb is probe response or beacon, the wrong frequency value can
cause problem that bss info can't be updated when it should be.

commit 452028665312672c6ba9e16a19248ee00ead9400 upstream.
The asyncronous firmware load uses a completion struct to hold firmware
processing until the user-space routines are up and running. There is.
however, a problem in that the waiter is nevered canceled during teardown.
As a result, unloading the driver when firmware is not available causes an oops.

processing until the user-space routines are up and running. There is.
however, a problem in that the waiter is nevered canceled during teardown.
As a result, unloading the driver when firmware is not available causes an oops.
To be able to access the completion structure at teardown, it had to be moved
into the b43_wldev structure.
This patch also fixes a typo in a comment.

commit 09164043f63c947a49797750a09ca1cd7c31108e upstream.
In https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67561, a locking dependency is reported
when b43 is used with hostapd, and rfkill is used to kill the radio output.
The lockdep splat (in part) is as follows:
======================================================
[ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ]
3.12.0 #1 Not tainted
-------------------------------------------------------
rfkill/10040 is trying to acquire lock:
(rtnl_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff8146f282>] rtnl_lock+0x12/0x20
but task is already holding lock:
(rfkill_global_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffffa04832ca>] rfkill_fop_write+0x6a/0x170 [rfkill]
--snip--
Chain exists of:
rtnl_mutex --> misc_mtx --> rfkill_global_mutex
The fix is to move the initialization of the hardware random number generator
outside the code range covered by the rtnl_mutex.

commit 2d93aee152b1758a94a18fe15d72153ba73b5679 upstream.
Enabling the oscillator consumes slightly more power (100uA)
but allows to make sure that we exit from L1 on time.
Not doing so might lead to a PCIe specification violation
since we might wake up from L1 at the wrong time.
This issue has been identified on 3160 and 7260 only.
On older NICs L1 off is not enabled, on newer NICs (7265),
the issue is fixed.
When the bug occurs the user sees that the NIC has
disappeared from the PCI bridge, any access to the device
returns 0xff.
This fixes:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64541
and has been extensively discussed here:

The initial USB driver did not use some register save locations in the

commit 73f0b56a1ff64e7fb6c3a62088804bab93bcedc2 upstream.
This patch adds a driver workaround for a HW issue.
A race condition in the HW results in missing interrupts,
which can be avoided by a read/write with the ISR register.
All chips in the AR9002 series are affected by this bug - AR9003
and above do not have this problem.

commit bbf807bc0697e577c137a5fffb30fca7c6a45da1 upstream.
When not aggregating packets, fi->framelen should be passed in as length
to calculate the duration. Before the tx path rework, ath_tx_fill_desc
was called for either one aggregate, or one single frame, with the
length of the packet or the aggregate as a parameter.
After the rework, ath_tx_sched_aggr can pass a burst of single frames to
ath_tx_fill_desc and sets len=0.
Fix broken duration calculation by overriding the length in ath_tx_fill_desc
before passing it to ath_buf_set_rate.

commit 6960a059b2c618f32fe549f13287b3d2278c09e9 upstream.
We changed the timeout for the interrupt coealescing for
calibration, but that wasn't effective since we changed
that value back before loading the firmware. Since
calibrations are notification from firmware and not Rx
packets, this doesn't change anyway - the firmware will
fire an interrupt straight away regardless of the interrupt
coalescing value.
Also, a HW issue has been discovered in 7000 devices series.
The work around is to disable the new interrupt coalescing
timeout feature - do this by setting bit 31 in
CSR_INT_COALESCING.
This has been fixed in 7265 which means that we can't rely
on the device family and must have a hint in the iwl_cfg
structure.

commit f6b129527ca15bae29ffb9417ddaa1c9d99ffc5d upstream.
Since we set IEEE80211_HW_QUEUE_CONTROL, we can let
mac80211 do the queue assignement and don't need to
override its decisions.
While reassiging the same values is harmless of course,
it triggered a WARNING when iwlwifi and mac80211 came
to different conclusions. This happened when mac80211 set
IEEE80211_TX_CTL_SEND_AFTER_DTIM, but didn't route the
packet to the cab_queue because no stations were asleep.
iwlwifi should not override mac80211's decicions for
offchannel packets and packets to be sent after DTIM,
but it should override mac80211's decision for AMPDUs
since we have a special queue for them. So for AMPDU,
we still override info->hw_queue by the AMPDU queue.
This avoids:

While receiving a packet on SDIO interface, we allocate skb with
size multiple of SDIO block size. We need to resize this skb
after RX using packet length from RX header.

commit 7ede612fd615abcda0cc30e5bef2a70f4cf4f75c upstream.
The regression was introduced in the following commit:
0967e01e8e713ed2982fb4eba8ba13794e9a6e89
"ath5k: make use of the new rate control API"
ath5k_tx_frame_completed saves the intended per-rate retry counts before
they are cleared by ieee80211_tx_info_clear_status, however at this
point the information in info->status.rates is incomplete.
This causes significant throughput degradation and excessive packet loss
on links where high bit rates don't work properly.
Move the copy from bf->rates a few lines up to ensure that the saved
retry counts are updated, and that they are really cleared in
info->status.rates after the call to ieee80211_tx_info_clear_status.

commit 78dbfecb95be4635b995af3bd29fa10013409fcd upstream.
The routine that processes received frames was returning the RSSI value for the
signal strength; however, that value is available only for associated APs. As
a result, the strength was the absurd value of 10 dBm. As a result, scans
return incorrect values for the strength, which causes unwanted attempts to roam.

commit eafbdde9c5629bea58df07275c5917eb42afbbe7 upstream.
This driver uses a number of macros to get and set various fields in the
RX and TX descriptors. To work correctly, a u8 pointer to the descriptor
must be used; however, in some cases a descriptor structure pointer is used
instead. In addition, a duplicated statement is removed.

commit 3aef7dde8dcf09e0124f0a2665845a507331972b upstream.
There is a typo in the struct member name on assignment when checking
rtlphy->current_chan_bw == HT_CHANNEL_WIDTH_20_40, the check uses pwrgroup_ht40
for bound limit and uses pwrgroup_ht20 when assigning instead.

commit 0c5d63f0ab6728f05ddefa25aff55e31297f95e6 upstream.
All of the rtlwifi drivers have an error in the routine that tests if
the data is "special". If it is, the subsequant transmission will be
at the lowest rate to enhance reliability. The 16-bit quantity is
big-endian, but was being extracted in native CPU mode. One of the
effects of this bug is to inhibit association under some conditions
as the TX rate is too high.
Based on suggestions by Joe Perches, the entire routine is rewritten.
One of the local headers contained duplicates of some of the ETH_P_XXX
definitions. These are deleted.

commit 36165fd5b00bf8163f89c21bb16a3e9834555b10 upstream.
Polling TX statuses too frequently has two negative effects. First is
randomly peek CPU usage, causing overall system functioning delays.
Second bad effect is that device is not able to fill TX statuses in
H/W register on some workloads and we get lot of timeouts like below:
ieee80211 phy4: rt2800usb_entry_txstatus_timeout: Warning - TX status timeout for entry 7 in queue 2
ieee80211 phy4: rt2800usb_entry_txstatus_timeout: Warning - TX status timeout for entry 7 in queue 2
ieee80211 phy4: rt2800usb_txdone: Warning - Got TX status for an empty queue 2, dropping
This not only cause flood of messages in dmesg, but also bad throughput,
since rate scaling algorithm can not work optimally.
In the future, we should probably make polling interval be adjusted
automatically, but for now just increase values, this make mentioned
problems gone.

commit 0beb1bbf19c72f17809e42b8f33522a55c2cc18c upstream.
In commit 3d81535ea5940446510a8a5cee1c6ad23c90c753
(rt2800: 5592: add chip specific vgc calculations)
the rt2800_link_tuner function has been modified to
adjust VGC level for the RT5592 chipset.
On the RT5592 chipset, the VGC level must be adjusted
only if rssi is greater than -65. However the current
code adjusts the VGC value by 0x10 regardless of the
actual chipset if the rssi value is between -80 and
-65.
Fix the broken behaviour by reordering the if-else
statements.
