wifi: mac80211: fix queue selection for mesh/OCB interfaces

2022-07-22T08:21:20+00:00

commit 50e2ab39291947b6c6c7025cf01707c270fcde59 upstream. When using iTXQ, the code assumes that there is only one vif queue for broadcast packets, using the BE queue. Allowing non-BE queue marking violates that assumption and txq->ac == skb_queue_mapping is no longer guaranteed. This can cause issues with queue handling in the driver and also causes issues with the recent ATF change, resulting in an AQL underflow warning.

mac80211: upgrade passive scan to active scan on DFS channels after beacon rx

2022-06-09T08:30:50+00:00

commit b041b7b9de6e1d4362de855ab90f9d03ef323edd upstream. In client mode, we can't connect to hidden SSID APs or SSIDs not advertised in beacons on DFS channels, since we're forced to passive scan. Fix this by sending out a probe request immediately after the first beacon, if active scan was requested by the user.

wifi: mac80211: fix use-after-free in chanctx code

2022-06-09T08:30:40+00:00

commit 2965c4cdf7ad9ce0796fac5e57debb9519ea721e upstream. In ieee80211_vif_use_reserved_context(), when we have an old context and the new context's replace_state is set to IEEE80211_CHANCTX_REPLACE_NONE, we free the old context in ieee80211_vif_use_reserved_reassign(). Therefore, we cannot check the old_ctx anymore, so we should set it to NULL after this point. However, since the new_ctx replace state is clearly not IEEE80211_CHANCTX_REPLACES_OTHER, we're not going to do anything else in this function and can just return to avoid accessing the freed old_ctx.

mac80211: Reset MBSSID parameters upon connection

2022-05-04T09:37:46+00:00

Currently MBSSID parameters in struct ieee80211_bss_conf are not reset upon connection. This could be problematic with some drivers in a scenario where the device first connects to a non-transmit BSS and then connects to a transmit BSS of a Multi BSS AP. The MBSSID parameters which are set after connecting to a non-transmit BSS will not be reset and the same parameters will be passed on to the driver during the subsequent connection to a transmit BSS of a Multi BSS AP. For example, firmware running on the ath11k device uses the Multi BSS data for tracking the beacon of a non-transmit BSS and reports the driver when there is a beacon miss. If we do not reset the MBSSID parameters during the subsequent connection to a transmit BSS, then the driver would have wrong MBSSID data and FW would be looking for an incorrect BSSID in the MBSSID beacon of a Multi BSS AP and reports beacon loss leading to an unstable connection. Reset the MBSSID parameters upon every connection to solve this problem.

2022-05-04T09:33:23+00:00

When the QoS ack policy was set to non explicit / psmp ack, frames are treated as not being part of a BA session, which causes extra latency on reordering.
