commit 6fe7cc71 upstream. The ath9k xmit functions for AMPDUs can send frames as non-aggregate in case only one frame is currently available. The client will then answer using a normal Ack instead of a BlockAck. This acknowledgement has no TID stored and therefore the hardware is not able to provide us the corresponding TID. The TID set by the hardware in the tx status descriptor has to be seen as undefined and not as a valid TID value for normal acknowledgements. Doing otherwise results in a massive amount of retransmissions and stalls of connections. Users may experience low bandwidth and complete connection stalls in environments with transfers using multiple TIDs. This regression was introduced in b11b160d ("ath9k: validate the TID in the tx status information"). Signed-off-by:

commit 8c6e3093 upstream. bf->bf_next is only while buffers are chained as part of an A-MPDU in the tx queue. When a tid queue is flushed (e.g. on tearing down an aggregation session), frames can be enqueued again as normal transmission, without bf_next being cleared. This can lead to the old pointer being dereferenced again later. This patch might fix crashes and "Failed to stop TX DMA!" messages. Signed-off-by:

commit 6dbda2d0 upstream. The code to allow EAPOL frames even when the station isn't yet marked associated needs to check that the incoming frame is long enough and due to paged RX it also can't assume skb->data contains the right data, it must use skb_copy_bits(). Fix this to avoid using data that doesn't really exist. Signed-off-by:

commit 9b395bc3 upstream. A number of places in the mesh code don't check that the frame data is present and in the skb header when trying to access. Add those checks and the necessary pskb_may_pull() calls. This prevents accessing data that doesn't actually exist. To do this, export ieee80211_get_mesh_hdrlen() to be able to use it in mac80211.

commit 4a4f1a58 upstream. Due to pskb_may_pull() checking the skb length, all non-management frames are checked on input whether their 802.11 header is fully present.

commit b6e0e543 upstream. Like in the case of native hdmi, which is fixed already in commit adf00b26 Author: Paulo Zanoni <paulo.r.zanoni@intel.com> Date: Tue Sep 25 13:23:34 2012 -0300 drm/i915: make sure we write all the DIP data bytes we need to clear the entire sdvo buffer to avoid upsetting the display. Since infoframe buffer writing is now a bit more elaborate, extract it into it's own function. This will be useful if we ever get around to properly update the ELD for sdvo. Also #define proper names for the two buffer indexes with fixed usage. v2: Cite the right commit above, spotted by Paulo Zanoni. v3: I'm too stupid to paste the right commit. v4: Ben Hutchings noticed that I've failed to handle an underflow in my loop logic, breaking it for i >= length + 8.

commit 81014b9d upstream. At least the worst offenders: - SDVO specifies that the encoder should compute the ecc. Testing also shows that we must not send the ecc field, so copy the dip_infoframe struct to a temporay place and avoid the ecc field. This way the avi infoframe is exactly 17 bytes long, which agrees with what the spec mandates as a minimal storage capacity (with the ecc field it would be 18 bytes). - Only 17 when sending the avi infoframe. The SDVO spec explicitly says that sending more data than what the device announces results in undefined behaviour. - Add __attribute__((packed)) to the avi and spd infoframes, for otherwise they're wrongly aligned. Noticed because the avi infoframe ended up being 18 bytes large instead of 17. We haven't noticed this yet because we don't use the uint16_t fields yet (which are the only ones that would be wrongly aligned).

commit a9193983 upstream. The overlay on the i830M has a peculiar failure mode: It works the first time around after boot-up, but consistenly hangs the second time it's used. Chris Wilson has dug out a nice errata: "1.5.12 Clock Gating Disable for Display Register Address Offset: 06200h–06203h "Bit 3 Ovrunit Clock Gating Disable. 0 = Clock gating controlled by unit enabling logic 1 = Disable clock gating function DevALM Errata ALM049: Overlay Clock Gating Must be Disabled: Overlay & L2 Cache clock gating must be disabled in order to prevent device hangs when turning off overlay.SW must turn off Ovrunit clock gating (6200h) and L2 Cache clock gating (C8h)." Now I've nowhere found that 0xc8 register and hence couldn't apply the l2 cache workaround. But I've remembered that part of the magic that the OVERLAY_ON/OFF commands are supposed to do is to rearrange cache allocations so that the overlay scaler has some scratch space. And while pondering how that could explain the hang the 2nd time we enable the overlay, I've remembered that the old ums overlay code did _not_ issue the OVERLAY_OFF cmd. And indeed, disabling the OFF cmd results in the overlay working flawlessly, so I guess we can workaround the lack of the above workaround by simply never disabling the overlay engine once it's enabled. Note that we have the first part of the above w/a already implemented in i830_init_clock_gating - leave that as-is to avoid surprises. v2: Add a comment in the code.

commit c4a9fafc upstream. No driver initializes chan->max_antenna_gain to something sensible, and the only place where it is being used right now is inside ath9k. This leads to ath9k potentially using less tx power than it can use, which can decrease performance/range in some rare cases. Rather than going through every single driver, this patch initializes chan->orig_mag in wiphy_register(), ignoring whatever value the driver left in there. If a driver for some reason wishes to limit it independent from regulatory rulesets, it can do so internally. Signed-off-by:

commit 115c9b81 upstream. Implement a new netlink attribute type IFLA_EXT_MASK. The mask is a 32 bit value that can be used to indicate to the kernel that certain extended ifinfo values are requested by the user application. At this time the only mask value defined is RTEXT_FILTER_VF to indicate that the user wants the ifinfo dump to send information about the VFs belonging to the interface. This patch fixes a bug in which certain applications do not have large enough buffers to accommodate the extra information returned by the kernel with large numbers of SR-IOV virtual functions. Those applications will not send the new netlink attribute with the interface info dump request netlink messages so they will not get unexpectedly large request buffers returned by the kernel. Modifies the rtnl_calcit function to traverse the list of net devices and compute the minimum buffer size that can hold the info dumps of all matching devices based upon the filter passed in via the new netlink attribute filter mask. If no filter mask is sent then the buffer allocation defaults to NLMSG_GOODSIZE. With this change it is possible to add yet to be defined netlink attributes to the dump request which should make it fairly extensible in the future. Signed-off-by:

commit 978520b7 upstream. Close some races at disconnection of a USB audio device by adding the chip->shutdown_mutex and chip->shutdown check at appropriate places. The spots to put bandaids are: - PCM prepare, hw_params and hw_free - where the usb device is accessed for communication or get speed, in mixer.c and others; the device speed is now cached in subs->speed instead of accessing to chip->dev The accesses in PCM open and close don't need the mutex protection because these are already handled in the core PCM disconnection code. The autosuspend/autoresume codes are still uncovered by this patch because of possible mutex deadlocks. They'll be covered by the upcoming change to rwsem. Also the mixer codes are untouched, too. These will be fixed in another patch, too. Reported-by:

commit f6365201 upstream. The X86_32-only disable_hlt/enable_hlt mechanism was used by the 32-bit floppy driver. Its effect was to replace the use of the HLT instruction inside default_idle() with cpu_relax() - essentially it turned off the use of HLT. This workaround was commented in the code as: "disable hlt during certain critical i/o operations" "This halt magic was a workaround for ancient floppy DMA wreckage. It should be safe to remove." H. Peter Anvin additionally adds: "To the best of my knowledge, no-hlt only existed because of flaky power distributions on 386/486 systems which were sold to run DOS. Since DOS did no power management of any kind, including HLT, the power draw was fairly uniform; when exposed to the much hhigher noise levels you got when Linux used HLT caused some of these systems to fail. They were by far in the minority even back then." Alan Cox further says: "Also for the Cyrix 5510 which tended to go castors up if a HLT occurred during a DMA cycle and on a few other boxes HLT during DMA tended to go astray. Do we care ? I doubt it. The 5510 was pretty obscure, the 5520 fixed it, the 5530 is probably the oldest still in any kind of use." So, let's finally drop this. Signed-off-by:
