When initiating dedicated bonding a L2CAP raw socket with HIGH security
level is used. The kernel is supposed to trigger the authentication
request in this case but this doesn't happen currently for non-SSP
(pre-2.1) devices. The reason is that the authentication request happens
in the remote extended features callback which never gets called for
non-SSP devices. This patch fixes the issue by requesting also
authentiation in the (normal) remote features callback in the case of
non-SSP devices.
This rule is applied only for HIGH security level which might at first
seem unintuitive since on the server socket side MEDIUM is already
enough for authentication. However, for the clients we really want to
prefer the server side to decide the authentication requrement in most
cases, and since most client sockets use MEDIUM it's better to be
avoided on the kernel side for these sockets. The important socket to
request it for is the dedicated bonding one and that socket uses HIGH
security level.
The patch is based on the initial investigation and patch proposal from
Andrei Emeltchenko <endrei.emeltchenko@nokia.com>.

Bit 22 of AR_WA should be set to fix the situation where chip reset
is asynchronous to clock of analog shift registers, such that when
reset is released, it could mess up the values of analog shift registers
and cause some hw issue on AR9280.
This bit is write only, but the driver does a read-modify-write
on AR_WA without setting bit 22 in ar9002_hw_configpcipowersave()
during radio disable. This causes surprise removal of hw. It can
never recover from this state and the hw will become usable only
after a power on/off cycle, and sometimes only during a cold reboot.
This issue can be triggered by doing frequent roaming with the
simple/test-roam script available from the wifi-test project [1]
when roaming between APs quickly. When roaming there is a is a high
possibility that the device being put into idle (radio disable) state
by mac80211 during AUTH->ASSOC. A device hardware reset would fail
and the kernel would output:

This is currently only reproducible with some HB92 (Half Mini-PCIE)
cards but the fix applies to all AR9280 cards. This patch fixes this
issue by setting bit 22 during radio disable.

For client STA interfaces, ieee80211_do_stop unsets the relevant
interface's SDATA_STATE_RUNNING state bit prior to cancelling an
interrupted scan. When ieee80211_offchannel_return is invoked as
part of cancelling the scan, it doesn't bother unsetting the
SDATA_STATE_OFFCHANNEL bit because it sees that the interface is
down. Normally this doesn't matter because when the client STA
interface is brought back up, it will probably issue a scan. But
in some cases (e.g., the user changes the interface type while it
is down), the SDATA_STATE_OFFCHANNEL bit will remain set. This
prevents the interface queues from being started. So we
cancel the scan before unsetting the SDATA_STATE_RUNNING bit.

This bug seems to be due to commit 27ae60f8f7 ("ipw2x00: replace

- libipw_proc = proc_mkdir(DRV_NAME, init_net.proc_net);
+ libipw_proc = proc_mkdir("ieee80211", init_net.proc_net);
but then the cleanup was kept as
remove_proc_entry(DRV_NAME, init_net.proc_net);
in both places (both in the failure case and in the unload case). The
error string is also total crap, and says
"Unable to create " DRV_NAME " proc directory\n");
Even though it doesn't actually create a proc directory named DRV_NAME at all.
So that patch looks like total and utter crap to me. The commit message says
"Keep /proc/net/ieee80211 under the original name to avoid breaking user
interface."
but the thing is, it really didn't fix anything but that one create
thing. It needs to fix all the other cases too.

I noticed two small issues in mac80211/debugfs_key.c::key_key_read while
reading through the code. Patch below.
The key_key_read() function returns ssize_t and the value that's actually
returned is the return value of simple_read_from_buffer() which also
returns ssize_t, so let's hold the return value in a ssize_t local
variable rather than a int one.
Also, memory is allocated dynamically with kmalloc() which can fail, but
the return value of kmalloc() is not checked, so we may end up operating
on a null pointer further on. So check for a NULL return and bail out with
-ENOMEM in that case.

potentially run into a situation where tried to stop RX
but immediately started RX. This allows for races on the
the RX engine deciding what buffer we last left off on
and could potentially cause ath9k to DMA into already
free'd memory or in the worst case at a later time to
already given memory to other drivers.
Fix this by locking stopping RX.

This updates the initvals for the AR9003 2.2 chipsets. The initvals
are the initial register values we use for our registers upon hardware
reset. This synchs up the initvals to match what our latest recommendation
from our systems engineering team.
The description of changes in this update:
Improves ability to support very strong Rx conditions.
Enhances DFS support for AP-mode.
Improves performance of Tx carrier leak calibration.
Adds support for Japan channel 14 Tx filtering requirements.
Improves Tx power accuracy.
Impact:
Update required to address degraded throughput at very short range.
Update required for AP-mode DFS certification.
Update required to comply to IEEE Tx carrier leak specification.
May not meet expected +/- 2 dB Tx power accuracy without update.
The most important fix here would be the TX carrier leakage required
to comply with IEEE 802.11 specifications. The group of changes have
been tested all together in one release.

The patch 4f366c5:
wireless: only use alpha2 regulatory information from country IE
removed some complex intersection we were always doing between the AP's
country IE info and what we got from CRDA. When CRDA sent us back a
regulatory domain we would do some sanity checks on that regulatory
domain response we just got. Part of these sanity checks included
checking that we already had performed an intersection for the
request of NL80211_REGDOM_SET_BY_COUNTRY_IE type.
This mean that cfg80211 was only processing country IEs for cases
where we already had an intersection, but since we removed enforcing
this this is no longer required, we should just apply the country
IE country hint with the data received from CRDA.
This patch has fixes intended for kernels >= 2.6.36.

This patch continues where the previous commit:
"carl9170: fix async command buffer leak"
left off.
Similar to carl9170_reboot/carl9170_powersave, the
carl9170_async_regwrite* macros would leak the
temporary command buffer, if __carl9170_exec_cmd
fails to upload the command to the device.

I found this bug while poking around with a pure-gn AP.
Commit:
cfg80211/mac80211: Use more generic bitrate mask for rate control
Added some sanity checks to ensure that each tx rate index
is included in the configured mask and it would change any
rate indexes if it wasn't.
But, the current implementation doesn't take into account
that the invalid rate index "-1" has a special meaning
(= no further attempts) and it should not be "changed".

If __carl9170_exec_cmd fails to upload an asynchronous
command to the device, the functions: carl9170_reboot
and carl9170_powersave will leak the temporary command
assembly buffer.

iee80211_hw->restart_work is the only work which uses the system
workqueue. Instead of calling flush_scheduled_work() during
iee80211_exit(), cancel the work during unregistration.
This is to prepare for the deprecation and removal of
flush_scheduled_work().
