2013-03-18ath6kl: add an extra band check to ath6kl_wmi_beginscan_cmd()Kalle Valo
Dan reported that smatch found a possible issue in ath6kl_wmi_beginscan_cmd() where we might access sc->supp_rates beyond the end. It shouldn't happen as ar->wiphy->bands always have just the first two bands set, but add an extra check just to be sure.

2012-11-26cfg80211: remove remain-on-channel channel typeJohannes Berg
As mwifiex (and mac80211 in the software case) are the only drivers actually implementing remain-on-channel with channel type, userspace can't be relying on it. This is the case, as it's used only for P2P operations right now. Rather than adding a flag to tell userspace whether or not it can actually rely on it, simplify all the code by removing the ability to use different channel types. Leave only the validation of the attribute, so that if we extend it again later (with the needed capability flag), it can't break userspace sending invalid data.

2012-10-24ath6kl: Check for valid rate table indexRaja Mani
There are 28 items defined in rate table array 'wmi_rate_tbl'. The rate table index (reply->rate_index) in ath6kl_wmi_bitrate_reply_rx() func is not checked for the valid max limit index before accessing rate table array. There may be some incidents to get memory crashes without safe max check. Fix this. Found this on code review.

2012-10-24ath6kl: Add support to detect fw error through heart beatVasanthakumar Thiagarajan
This patch adds support to detect fw error condition by sending periodic message (heart beat challenge) to firmware. Upon reception of the message, fw would send a response event to driver. When there are no reponses from fw for about 5 cmd driver would trigger the recovery logic assuming that fw has gone into an error state. Capable fw will advertise this capability through ATH6KL_FW_CAPABILITY_HEART_BEAT_POLL bit. This feature is disabled by default, can be enabled through a modparam (heart_beat_poll). This modparam also confiures the polling interval in msecs. Signed-off-by: Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan <vthiagar@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@qca.qualcomm.com>
2012-10-24ath6kl: fix link speed when using sgiDengke Qiu
The MSB of rate index from FW is used for sgi. But the ath6kl_wmi_get_rate doesn't handle it. The access to wmi_rate_tbl array may be out of range if sgi is 1. This may cause the return value of ath6kl_wmi_get_rate() function is incorrect link rate. We add sgi adjustment to avoid such case. kvalo: change patch title Signed-off-by: Dengke Qiu <dqiu@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@qca.qualcomm.com>
2012-10-24ath6kl: rework scheduled scanThomas Pedersen
This patch reflects changes in the firmware scheduled scan implementation to behave better in cases with multiple concurrent vifs. Major changes: - scheduled scan filters and state are now programmed per-vif. - decouple scheduled scan from host sleep. To maintain graceful failure with old firmwares, a new firmware capability bit is introduced: ATH6KL_FW_CAPABILITY_SCHED_SCAN_V2. ath6kl simply won't advertise scheduled scan to cfg80211 if the SCHED_SCAN_V2 is not supported. Since firmwares from here on out won't support the previous implicit API for scheduled scan (set WoW filters and host sleep), bump the firmware API to protect old drivers. Unfortunately, due to firmware RAM constraints ath6kl still cannot expect a scan complete event at the end of a scheduled scan results cycle, so the sched_scan_timer is retained.

2012-10-24ath6kl: fix incorrect use of IEEE80211_NUM_BANDSKalle Valo
ath6kl was incorrectly assuming that IEEE80211_NUM_BANDS will always be 2 and used that also in the firmware WMI interface definitions. But after the support for 60 GHz was added to cfg80211 IEEE80211_NUM_BANDS changed to 3 and this can cause all sort of problems, possibly even memory corruption. I only found this during code review and didn't notice any bugs, but I'm sure there are a few lurking somewhere. To fix this rename unused A_NUM_BANDS to ATH6KL_NUM_BANDS, which is always defined to be 2, and use that in WMI. Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@qca.qualcomm.com>

2012-01-30ath6kl: Wait for host sleep mode cmd processed event during WOW suspendRaja Mani
For every WMI_SET_HOST_SLEEP_MODE_CMDID command (send from the host), the firmware sends WMI_SET_HOST_SLEEP_MODE_CMD_PROCESSED_EVENTID as an acknowledgement to the host. In order to being sync with the firmware, the host has to wait for WMI_SET_HOST_SLEEP_MODE_CMD_PROCESSED_EVENT event before going to the suspend state. This patch ensures ath6kl_wow_suspend() waits until it gets this event after sending set host sleep mode command. This patch adds, * New command WMI_SET_HOST_SLEEP_MODE_CMD_PROCESSED_EVENTID in WMI event table. * New WMI function ath6kl_wmi_host_sleep_mode_cmd_prcd_evt_rx() to process the event. * New flag HOST_SLEEP_MODE_CMD_PROCESSED in VIF flags to record the arrival of the event.

This is needed to make all pattern and mask arrays to be 'static const u8' in the caller function. * New conditional check is added to make sure user configured pattern count is within the limit (WOW_MAX_FILTERS_PER_LIST).
