commit 36165fd5b0 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.

In commit 3d81535ea5
(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.

commit 453b0c3f69 upstream.
601216e "mwifiex: process RX packets in SDIO IRQ thread directly"
introduced a command timeout issue which can be reproduced easily on
an AM33xx platform using a test application written by Daniel Mack:
https://gist.github.com/zonque/6579314
mwifiex_main_process() is called from both the SDIO handler and
the workqueue. In case an interrupt occurs right after the
int_status check, but before updating the mwifiex_processing flag,
this interrupt gets lost, resulting in a command timeout and
consequently a card reset.
Let main_proc_lock protect both int_status and mwifiex_processing
flag. This fixes the interrupt lost issue.

Bug 60815 - Interface hangs in mwifiex_usb
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60815
We have 4 bytes of interface header for packets delivered to SDIO
and PCIe, but not for USB interface.
In Tx AMSDU case, currently 4 bytes of garbage data is unnecessarily
appended for USB packets. This sometimes leads to a firmware hang,
because it may not interpret the data packet correctly.
Problem is fixed by removing this redundant headroom for USB.

On Surface Pro, suspend to ram gives a NULL pointer dereference in

call is clearing carrier in mwifiex_usb suspend handler.
Since commit 1499d9f "mwifiex: don't drop carrier flag over suspend"

commit 6390d88529 upstream.
When trying to unset a previously-set multicast list (i.e. the new list
has 0 entries), mwifiex_set_multicast_list() was calling down to
mwifiex_request_set_multicast_list() while leaving
mcast_list.num_multicast_addr as an uninitialized value.
We were arriving at mwifiex_cmd_mac_multicast_adr() which would then
proceed to do an often huge memcpy of
mcast_list.num_multicast_addr*ETH_ALEN bytes, causing memory corruption
and hard to debug crashes.
Fix this by setting mcast_list.num_multicast_addr to 0 when no multicast
list is provided. Similarly, fix up the logic in
mwifiex_request_set_multicast_list() to unset the multicast list that
was previously sent to the hardware in such cases.

Bug 60747 - 1286:2044 [Microsoft Surface Pro]
Marvell 88W8797 wifi show 3 interface under network
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60747
This issue was also reported previously by OLPC and some folks from
the community.
There are 3 network interfaces with different types being created
when mwifiex driver is loaded:
1. mlan0 (infra. STA)
2. uap0 (AP)
3. p2p0 (P2P_CLIENT)
The Network Manager attempts to use all 3 interfaces above without
filtering the managed interface type. As the result, 3 identical
interfaces are displayed under network manager. If user happens to
click on an entry under which its interface is uap0 or p2p0, the
association will fail.
Work around it by removing the creation of AP and P2P interfaces
at driver loading time. These interfaces can be added with 'iw' or
other applications manually when they are needed.

ath9k_htc adds padding between the 802.11 header and the payload during
TX by moving the header. When handing the frame back to mac80211 for TX
status handling the header is not moved back into its original position.
This can result in a too small skb headroom when entering ath9k_htc
again (due to a soft retransmission for example) causing an
skb_under_panic oops.
Fix this by moving the 802.11 header back into its original position
before returning the frame to mac80211 as other drivers like rt2x00
or ath5k do.

The D3 firmware API changed to include a new field, adjust
the driver to it to avoid getting an NMI when configuring.

commit a2d0909a68 upstream.
As the firmware API has changed significantly and we don't
have support code for the old APIs, bump the version to be
able to release the version 7 API firmware. Unfortunately
this means that the driver in 3.9 and 3.10 can't work, but
that's still better than crashing the device/driver there.

commit 837fb69f10 upstream.
The MCAST queue should be enabled after DTIM only.
According to fw API, the MCAST must not be attached to any
station, but should appear in the mcast_qid of the AP's
mac context only.

commit 9116a36839 upstream.
In multicast, there is no retries nor RTS since there is no
specific recipient that can ACK or send CTS. This means
that we must not use the rate scale table for multicast
frames.
This true for any frame that doesn't have a valid
ieee80211_sta pointer.

commit 86a91ec757 upstream.
The AP mode needs to use the MCAST fifo for the MCAST
frames sent after the DTIM. This fifo needs to be
configured with the same parameters as the VOICE FIFO.
A separate SCD queue is mapped to this fifo - the cab_queue
(cab stands for Content After Beacon). This queue isn't
connected to any station, but rather to the MAC context.
This queue should (and is already) be set as the MCAST
queue - this is part of the of MAC context command.

commit eca396d7a5 upstream.
If device was put into a sleep and system was restarted or module
reloaded, we have to wake device up before sending other commands.
Otherwise it will fail to start with Microcode error.

commit 707aee401d upstream.
The BT_CONFIG command that is sent to the device during
startup will enable BT coex unless the module parameter
turns it off, but on devices without Bluetooth this may
cause problems, as reported in Redhat BZ 885407.
Fix this by sending the BT_CONFIG command only when the
device has Bluetooth.

commit bb963c4a43 upstream.
Set SSID bitmap for direct scan even on passive channels,
for the passive-to-active feature. Without this patch only
the SSID from probe request template is sent on passive
channels, after passive-to-active switching, causing us to
not find all desired networks.
Remove the unused passive scan mask constant.

commit 953b3539ef upstream.
This patch fixes an issue wherein association would fail on P2P
interfaces. This happened because we are checking priv->mode
against NL80211_IFTYPE_STATION. While this check is correct for
infrastructure stations, it would fail P2P clients for which mode
is NL80211_IFTYPE_P2P_CLIENT.
Better check would be bss_role which has only 2 values: STA/AP.

commit e2288b66fe upstream.
Since we clear QUEUE_STARTED in rt2x00queue_stop_queue(), following
call to rt2x00queue_pause_queue() reduce to noop, i.e we do not
stop queue in mac80211.
To fix that introduce rt2x00queue_pause_queue_nocheck() function,
which will stop queue in mac80211 directly.
Note that rt2x00_start_queue() explicitly set QUEUE_PAUSED bit.
Note also that reordering operations i.e. first call to
rt2x00queue_pause_queue() and then clear QUEUE_STARTED bit, will race
with rt2x00queue_unpause_queue(), so calling ieee80211_stop_queue()
directly is the only available solution to fix the problem without
major rework.
