Recently we started to send the WEP keys to the firmware so that we could use hardware Tx encryption also on newer devices that require the keys to be installed in the firmware for encryption (as opposed to older devices that can get the key in the Tx command for each Tx). When we implemented that, we forgot to remove the key when we remove a station leading to a situation where a station that connects and disconnects a lot of times exhausts the key database inside the firmware. A fix was made for that, but we always removed the same key: mvmvif->ap_wep_key which means that we removed the same key entry in the firmware. This can make sense since in WEP, the key is the same for all the stations, but the internal implementation of iwl_mvm_set_sta_key and iwl_mvm_remove_sta_key assumes that each station uses a different key in the firmware's key database. So now we got to the situation where we have a single ieee80211_key_conf instance that means, a single ieee80211_key_conf.hw_key_idx index for several stations and hence for several keys. ieee80211_key_conf.hw_key_idx is set to 0 when the first station associates, and then it is overwritten to 1 when the second station associates which is a buggy of course. This led to the following message upon the removal of the second station: iwlwifi 0000:00:03.0: offset 1 not used in fw key table. WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 27883 at net/mac80211/sta_info.c:1122 __sta_info_destroy_part2+0x16b/0x180 [mac80211] RIP: 0010:__sta_info_destroy_part2+0x16b/0x180 [mac80211] Call Trace: __sta_info_destroy+0x2a/0x40 [mac80211] sta_info_destroy_addr_bss+0x38/0x60 [mac80211] ieee80211_del_station+0x1d/0x30 [mac80211] nl80211_del_station+0xe0/0x1f0 [cfg80211] Fix this by copying the ieee80211_key_conf structure for each and every station. This is the easiest way to properly remove the keys with the right index. Another solution would have been to allow several stations to use the same key offset in the firmware. That would require to change the way we track keys in iwlmvm and not really worth it. Also, maintain correctly fw_key_table when we add a key for the multicast station. Remove the key when we remove the multicast station.
