mac80211: simplify TX aggregation start

2019-10-04T11:58:13+00:00

There really is no need to make drivers call the ieee80211_start_tx_ba_cb_irqsafe() function and then schedule the worker if all we want is to set a bit. Add a new return value (that was previously considered invalid) to indicate that the driver is immediately ready for the session, and make drivers use it. The only drivers that remain different are the Intel ones as they need to negotiate more with the firmware.

carl9170: remove dead branch in op_conf_tx callback

2019-06-27T17:47:39+00:00

This patch removes the error branch for (queue > ar->hw->queues). It is no longer needed anymore as the "queue" value is validated by cfg80211's parse_txq_params() before the driver code gets called. Some background: In the old days (linux 2.6 and early 3.x), the parse_txq_params() function did not verify the "queue" value. That's why these drivers had to do it.

carl9170: fix misuse of device driver API

2019-06-27T17:46:47+00:00

This patch follows Alan Stern's recent patch: "p54: Fix race between disconnect and firmware loading" that overhauled carl9170 buggy firmware loading and driver unbinding procedures. Since the carl9170 code was adapted from p54 it uses the same functions and is likely to have the same problem, but it's just that the syzbot hasn't reproduce them (yet). a summary from the changes (copied from the p54 patch): * Call usb_driver_release_interface() rather than device_release_driver(). * Lock udev (the interface's parent) before unbinding the driver instead of locking udev->parent. * During the firmware loading process, take a reference to the USB interface instead of the USB device. * Don't take an unnecessary reference to the device during probe (and then don't drop it during disconnect). and * Make sure to prevent use-after-free bugs by explicitly setting the driver context to NULL after signaling the completion.

Kalle Valu says: ==================== wireless-drivers-next patches for 5.3 First set of patches for 5.3, but not that many patches this time. This pull request fails to compile with the tip tree due to ktime_get_boot_ns() API changes there. It should be easy for Linus to fix it in p54 driver once he pulls this, an example resolution here: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190625160432.533aa140@canb.auug.org.au Major changes: airo * switch to use skcipher interface p54 * support boottime in scan results rtw88 * add fast xmit support * add random mac address on scan support rt2x00 * add software watchdog to detect hangs, it's disabled by default ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
