Indicate hardware (or firmware) supports that CQM packet-loss report will be generated based on station kickout algorithm. As of now mac80211 tracks connection loss by missing msdu counts (50) whereas ath10k firmware tracks them by missing ppdus (+ BAR tries). While firmware is trying to adapt its rate table, mac80211 might send out low_ack event to hostapd. This is causing frequent connect and disconnect iteration under noisy environment or when station is roaming around. Signed-off-by:

These are never NULL, so stop making people think they might be. I don't change this for SDIO because SDIO has a racy card-reset handler that reallocates this struct. I'd rather not touch that mess right now. Signed-off-by:

card->adapter gets initialized in mwifiex_register_dev(). As it's not cleared in mwifiex_unregister_dev(), we may end up accessing the memory which is already free in below scenario. Scenario: Driver initialization is failed due to incorrect firmware or some other reason. Meanwhile device reboot/unload occurs. This is safe, now that we've properly synchronized suspend() and remove() with the FW initialization thread; now that code can simply check for 'card->adapter == NULL' and exit safely. Signed-off-by:

It's possible for the FW init sequence to fail, which will trigger a device cleanup sequence in mwifiex_fw_dpc(). This sequence can race with device suspend() or remove() (e.g., reboot or unbind), and can trigger use-after-free issues. Currently, this driver attempts (poorly) to synchronize remove() using a semaphore, but it doesn't protect some of the critical sections properly. Particularly, we grab a pointer to the adapter struct (card->adapter) without checking if it's being freed or not. We later do a NULL check on the adapter, but that doesn't work if the adapter was freed. Also note that the PCIe interface driver doesn't ever set card->adapter to NULL, so even if we get the synchronization right, we still might try to redo the cleanup in ->remove(), even if the FW init failure sequence already did it. This patch replaces the static semaphore with a per-device completion struct, and uses that completion to synchronize the remove() thread with the mwifiex_fw_dpc(). A future patch will utilize this completion to synchronize the suspend() thread as well. Signed-off-by:

We may get SLEEP event from firmware even if TXDone interrupt for last Tx packet is still pending. In this case, we may end up accessing PCIe memory for handling TXDone after power save handshake is completed. This causes kernel crash with external abort. This patch will only allow downloading sleep confirm when no tx done interrupt is pending in the hardware. Signed-off-by:

Introduce function mwifiex_probe_of() to parse common properties. Interface drivers get to decide whether or not the device tree node was a valid one (depending on the compatible property), Lets fill "adapter->dt_node" in mwifiex_add_card(). The function mwifiex_probe_of() is currently only a place holder with the next patch adding content to it. Signed-off-by:

Today all the interface drivers (usb/pcie/sdio) assign the adapter->dev in the register_dev() callback, although they have this piece of info well before hand. This patch makes the device structure available for mwifiex right at the beginning, so that it can be used for early initialization if needed. This is needed for subsequent patches in this patchset that intend to unify and consolidate some of the code that would otherwise have to be duplicated among the interface drivers (sdio, pcie, usb).

The cleanup_if() callback is the inverse of init_if(). We allocate our 'card' interface structure in the probe() function, but we free it in cleanup_if(). That gives a few problems: (a) we leak this memory if probe() fails before we reach init_if() (b) we can't safely utilize 'card' after cleanup_if() -- namely, in remove() or suspend(), both of which might race with the cleanup paths in our asynchronous FW initialization path Solution: just use devm_kzalloc(), which will free this structure properly when the device is removed -- and drop the set_drvdata(..., NULL), since the driver core does this for us. This also removes the temptation to use drvdata == NULL as a hack for checking if the device has been "cleaned up." I *do* leave the set_drvdata(..., NULL) for the hacky SDIO mwifiex_recreate_adapter(), since the device core won't be able to clear that one for us. Signed-off-by: -

On x86, the cw1200 driver produces a rather silly warning about the possible use of the 'ret' variable without an initialization presumably after being confused by the architecture specific definition of WARN_ON: drivers/net/wireless/st/cw1200/wsm.c: In function ‘wsm_handle_rx’: drivers/net/wireless/st/cw1200/wsm.c:1457:9: error: ‘ret’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] We have already checked that 'count' is larger than 0 here, so we know that 'ret' is initialized. Changing the 'for' loop into do/while also makes this clear to the compiler. Suggested-by:

The hostap_80211_rx() function is supposed to set up the mac addresses for four possible cases, based on two bits of input data. For some reason, gcc decides that it's possible that none of the these four cases apply and the addresses remain uninitialized: drivers/net/wireless/intersil/hostap/hostap_80211_rx.c: In function ‘hostap_80211_rx’: arch/x86/include/asm/string_32.h:77:14: warning: ‘src’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] drivers/net/wireless/intel/ipw2x00/libipw_rx.c: In function ‘libipw_rx’: arch/x86/include/asm/string_32.h:77:14: error: ‘dst’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] arch/x86/include/asm/string_32.h:78:22: error: ‘*((void *)&dst+4)’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] This warning is clearly nonsense, but changing the last case into 'default' makes it obvious to the compiler too, which avoids the warning and probably leads to better object code too. The same code is duplicated several times in the kernel, so this patch uses the same workaround for all copies. The exact configuration was hit only very rarely in randconfig builds and I only saw it in three drivers, but I assume that all of them are potentially affected, and it's better to keep the code consistent.
