ath9k: avoid accessing MRC registers on single-chain devices

commit a1c781bb20ac1e03280e420abd47a99eb8bbdd3b upstream. They are not implemented, and accessing them might trigger errors Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau Signed-off-by: John W. Linville Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

ath9k: fix rx descriptor related race condition

2013-09-27T00:21:45Z

commit e96542e55a2aacf4bdeccfe2f17b77c4895b4df2 upstream. Similar to a race condition that exists in the tx path, the hardware might re-read the 'next' pointer of a descriptor of the last completed frame. This only affects non-EDMA (pre-AR93xx) devices. To deal with this race, defer clearing and re-linking a completed rx descriptor until the next one has been processed. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau Signed-off-by: John W.

ath9k: always clear ps filter bit on new assoc

commit 026d5b07c03458f9c0ccd19c3850564a5409c325 upstream. Otherwise in some cases, EAPOL frames might be filtered during the initial handshake, causing delays and assoc failures. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau Signed-off-by: John W. Linville Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

brcmsmac: Fix WARNING caused by lack of calls to dma_mapping_error()

mwifiex: do not create AP and P2P interfaces upon driver loading

2013-09-14T14:06:46Z

commit 1211c961170cedb21c30d5bb7e2033c8720b38db upstream. 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: Enable PLL fix only for AR9340/AR9330

2013-08-22T18:21:04Z

The PLL hang workaround is required only for AR9330 and AR9340. This issue was first observed on an AP121 and the WAR is enabled for AR9340 also (DB120 etc.), since it uses a PLL design identical to AR9330. This is not required for AR9485 and AR9550. Various bugs have been reported regarding this: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=997217 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=994648 Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Sujith Manoharan Signed-off-by: John W.

ath9k_htc: Restore skb headroom when returning skb to mac80211

2013-08-22T18:21:03Z

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.

mac80211: add a flag to indicate CCK support for HT clients

2013-08-21T13:03:25Z

brcm80211 cannot handle sending frames with CCK rates as part of an A-MPDU session. Other drivers may have issues too. Set the flag in all drivers that have been tested with CCK rates. This fixes a reported brcmsmac regression introduced in commit ef47a5e4f1aaf1d0e2e6875e34b2c9595897bef6 "mac80211/minstrel_ht: fix cck rate sampling" Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 3.10 Reported-by: Tom Gundersen Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg
