commit 6ccf15a1a7 upstream.
Atheros PCIe wireless cards handled by ath5k do require L0s disabled.
For distributions shipping with CONFIG_PCIEASPM (this will be enabled
by default in the future in 2.6.36) this will also mean both L1 and L0s
will be disabled when a pre 1.1 PCIe device is detected. We do know L1
works correctly even for all ath5k pre 1.1 PCIe devices though but cannot
currently undue the effect of a blacklist, for details you can read
pcie_aspm_sanity_check() and see how it adjusts the device link
capability.
It may be possible in the future to implement some PCI API to allow
drivers to override blacklists for pre 1.1 PCIe but for now it is
best to accept that both L0s and L1 will be disabled completely for
distributions shipping with CONFIG_PCIEASPM rather than having this
issue present. Motivation for adding this new API will be to help
with power consumption for some of these devices.
Example of issues you'd see:
- On the Acer Aspire One (AOA150, Atheros Communications Inc. AR5001
Wireless Network Adapter [168c:001c] (rev 01)) doesn't work well
with ASPM enabled, the card will eventually stall on heavy traffic
with often 'unsupported jumbo' warnings appearing. Disabling
ASPM L0s in ath5k fixes these problems.
- On the same card you would see a storm of RXORN interrupts
even though medium is idle.

Fix possible double priv->mutex lock introduced by commit
a69b03e941
"iwlwifi: cancel scan watchdog in iwl_bg_abort_scan" .
We can not call cancel_delayed_work_sync(&priv->scan_check) with
priv->mutex locked because workqueue function iwl_bg_scan_check()
take that lock internally.
We do not need to synchronize when canceling priv->scan_check work.
We can avoid races (sending double abort command or send no
command at all) using STATUS_SCAN_ABORT bit. Moreover
current iwl_bg_scan_check() code seems to be broken, as
we should not send abort commands when currently aborting.

Unfortunately that left the pending un-acked frames unprocessed, thus

commit f860d526eb upstream.
When issuing a reset, the TSF value is lost in the hardware because of
the 913x specific cold reset. As with some AR9280 cards, the TSF needs
to be preserved in software here.
Additionally, there's an issue that frequently prevents a successful
TSF write directly after the chip reset. In this case, repeating the
TSF write after the initval-writes usually works.
This patch detects failed TSF writes and recovers from them, taking
into account the delay caused by the initval writes.

commit 36f2407fe5 upstream.
Should e1000_test_msi() fail to see an msi interrupt, it attempts to
fallback to legacy INTx interrupts. But an error in the code may prevent
this from happening correctly.
Before calling e1000_test_msi_interrupt(), e1000_test_msi() disables SERR
by clearing the SERR bit from the just read PCI_COMMAND bits as it writes
them back out.
Upon return from calling e1000_test_msi_interrupt(), it re-enables SERR
by writing out the version of PCI_COMMAND it had previously read.
The problem with this is that e1000_test_msi_interrupt() calls
pci_disable_msi(), which eventually ends up in pci_intx(). And because
pci_intx() was called with enable set to 1, the INTX_DISABLE bit gets
cleared from PCI_COMMAND, which is what we want. But when we get back to
e1000_test_msi(), the INTX_DISABLE bit gets inadvertently re-set because
of the attempt by e1000_test_msi() to re-enable SERR.
The solution is to have e1000_test_msi() re-read the PCI_COMMAND bits as
part of its attempt to re-enable SERR.
During debugging/testing of this issue I found that not all the systems
I ran on had the SERR bit set to begin with. And on some of the systems
the same could be said for the INTX_DISABLE bit. Needless to say these
latter systems didn't have a problem falling back to legacy INTx
interrupts with the code as is.

commit b561e8274f upstream.
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!

commit 9637e516d1 upstream.
Jumbo frames are not supported, and if they are seen it is likely
a bogus frame so just silently discard them instead of warning on
them all time. Also, instead of dropping them immediately though
move the check *after* we check for all sort of frame errors. This
should enable us to discard these frames if the hardware picks
other bogus items first. Lets see if we still get those jumbo
counters increasing still with this.
Jumbo frames would happen if we tell hardware we can support
a small 802.11 chunks of DMA'd frame, hardware would split RX'd
frames into parts and we'd have to reconstruct them in software.
This is done with USB due to the bulk size but with ath5k we
already provide a good limit to hardware and this should not be
happening.
This is reported quite often and if it fills the logs then this
needs to be addressed and to avoid spurious reports.

On MTU change, velocity_give_many_rx_descs() is again called before

it does look wrong.

commit 39d3215774 upstream.
I have seen RX stalls on a machine that experienced a suspected
OOM. After the stall, the RX buffer is empty on the guest side
and there are exactly 16 entries available on the host side. As
the number of entries is less than that required by a maximal
skb, the host cannot proceed.
The guest did not have a refill job scheduled.
My diagnosis is that an OOM had occured, with the delayed refill
job scheduled. The job was able to allocate at least one skb, but
not enough to overcome the minimum required by the host to proceed.
As the refill job would only reschedule itself if it failed completely
to allocate any skbs, this would lead to an RX stall.
The following patch removes this stall possibility by always
rescheduling the refill job until the ring is totally refilled.
Testing has shown that the RX stall no longer occurs whereas
previously it would occur within a day.

commit 57c8a45664 upstream.
The SJA1000 command register is concurrently written in the rx-path to free
the receive buffer _and_ in the tx-path to start the transmission.
The SJA1000 data sheet, 6.4.4 COMMAND REGISTER (CMR) states:
"Between two commands at least one internal clock cycle is needed in
order to proceed. The internal clock is half of the external oscillator
frequency."
On SMP systems the current implementation leads to a write stall in the
tx-path, which can be solved by adding some general locking and some time
to settle the write_reg() operation for the command register.

exceed the previously allocated space for rx stream reconstruction.
This patch increases the buffer size to 64KiB which is
in fact the phy & rx stream designed size limit.

When reporting Tx status, indicate that only one rate was used.
Otherwise, the rate is frozen at rate index 0 (i.e. 1Mb/s).

commit e7971c80a8 upstream.
The SH SOHARD ARCNET cards are implemented using generic PLX Technology
PCI<->IOBus bridges. Subvendor and subdevice IDs were not specified,
causing the driver to attach to any such bridge and likely crash the
system by attempting to initialize an unrelated device.
Fix by specifying subvendor and subdevice according to the values found
in the PCI-ID Repository at http://pci-ids.ucw.cz/ .

Johannes' patch 34e8950 titled:
mac80211: allow station add/remove to sleep
changed the way mac80211 adds and removes peers. The new
sta_add() / sta_remove() callbacks allowed the driver callbacks
to sleep. Johannes also ported ath9k to use sta_add() / sta_remove()
via the patch 4ca7786 titled:
ath9k: convert to new station add/remove callbacks
but this patch forgot to address a change in locking issue which
Ming Lei eventually found on his 2.6.33-wl #12 build. The 2.6.33-wl
build includes code for the 802.11 subsystem for 2.6.34 though so did
already have the above two patches (ath9k_sta_remove() on his trace),
the 2.6.33 kernel did not however have these two patches. Ming eventually
cured his lockdep warnign via the patch a9f042c titled:
ath9k: fix lockdep warning when unloading module
This went in to 2.6.34 and although it was not marked as a stable
fix it did get trickled down and applied on both 2.6.33 and 2.6.32.
In review, the culprits:
mac80211: allow station add/remove to sleep
git describe --contains 34e895075e
v2.6.34-rc1~233^2~49^2~107
ath9k: convert to new station add/remove callbacks
git describe --contains 4ca778605c
v2.6.34-rc1~233^2~49^2~10
ath9k: fix lockdep warning when unloading module
This last one trickled down to 2.6.33 (OK), 2.6.33 (invalid) and 2.6.32 (invalid).
git describe --contains a9f042cbe5
v2.6.34-rc2~48^2~77^2~7
git describe --contains 0524bcfa80
v2.6.33.2~125
git describe --contains 0dcc9985f3
v2.6.32.11~79
The patch titled "ath9k: fix lockdep warning when unloading module"
should be reverted on both 2.6.33 and 2.6.32 as it is invalid and
actually ended up causing the following warning:

ath9k 0000:16:00.0: PCI INT A disabled
The original lockdep fixed an issue where due to the new changes
the driver was not disabling the bottom halves but it is incorrect
to do this on the older kernels since IRQs are already disabled.

commit 93a59d7527 upstream.
James Grossmann [1] reported that p54 spews out confusing
messages instead of preventing the mayhem from happening.
the reason is that "p54: generate channel list dynamically"
is not perfect. It didn't discard incomplete channel data
sets and therefore p54 advertised to support them as well.

All the queues are awake and ready to use after loading firmware,
for firmware reload case, if any queues was stopped before
reload, mac80211 will wake those queues after restart hardware, so make
sure all the flag used to keep track of the queue status are
reset correctly.
