[ Upstream commit4afc850e2e] Following commite186967865("mwifiex: Prevent memory corruption handling keys") the mwifiex driver fails to authenticate with certain networks, specifically networks with 256 bit keys, and repeatedly asks for the password. The kernel log repeats the following lines (id and bssid redacted): mwifiex_pcie 0000:01:00.0: info: trying to associate to '<id>' bssid <bssid> mwifiex_pcie 0000:01:00.0: info: associated to bssid <bssid> successfully mwifiex_pcie 0000:01:00.0: crypto keys added mwifiex_pcie 0000:01:00.0: info: successfully disconnected from <bssid>: reason code 3 Tracking down this problem lead to the overflow check introduced by the aforementioned commit into mwifiex_ret_802_11_key_material_v2(). This check fails on networks with 256 bit keys due to the current storage size for AES keys in struct mwifiex_aes_param being only 128 bit. To fix this issue, increase the storage size for AES keys to 256 bit.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
