When trying to unset a previously-set multicast list (i.e. the new list has 0 entries), mwifiex_set_multicast_list() was calling down to mwifiex_request_set_multicast_list() while leaving mcast_list.num_multicast_addr as an uninitialized value. We were arriving at mwifiex_cmd_mac_multicast_adr() which would then proceed to do an often huge memcpy of mcast_list.num_multicast_addr*ETH_ALEN bytes, causing memory corruption and hard to debug crashes. Fix this by setting mcast_list.num_multicast_addr to 0 when no multicast list is provided. Similarly, fix up the logic in mwifiex_request_set_multicast_list() to unset the multicast list that was previously sent to the hardware in such cases.

PATCH "mwifiex: scan delay timer cleanup in unload path" adds code to cancel scan delay timer in unload path. It causes a regression for USB interface. USB8797 card gets enumerated twice. First enumeration is for firmware download and second enumeration expects firmware initialization. It was observed that we are trying del_timer_sync() without setting up the timer when remove handler is called after first enumeration. This patch moves setup_timer() call to appropriate place so that timer is setup for both the enumerations.

As the variable is used only for preparation of internal scan commands, we don't need to keep it allocated until the entire scan completes. We will define it as a local variable and free immediately after it's use. New flag 'scan_aborting' is added to handle race between mwifiex_close() and scan handler. Previously user_scan_cfg pointer used to take care of this. This patch fixes a memory leak in mwifiex_cfg80211_scan after running "iwlist mlan0 scan & sleep 1; rmmod mwifiex_sdio".

This patch adds support for multiple TX queues inside mwifiex driver. Four different queues according to WMM access categories are defined for each virtual interface. When a packet is received from netdev for transmission, tx pending count for particular queue is incremented and if tx pending count has reached upper water-mark, this queue is stopped instead of stopping all queues. Similarly when a packet is successfully transmitted from device, tx pending count is decremented per queue and if pending count falls below lower water-mark, queue operations are again resumed. This ensures that not all tranmission is blocked if traffic with particular TOS value suddenly increases. Also wake all queues after association/IBSS_join/uAP_BSS_start to enable traffic on all queues.

Currently AP interface has higher priority over station. Hence separate entries are created in "adapter->bss_prio_tbl" for these interfaces and station packet is dequeued only if there is not packet in queue for AP. It is observed that ping for station interface doesn't work if heavy traffic is running on AP. The problem is fixed by having same priority for both the interfaces.

Earlier scan command was postponed by 20msec multiple times to give preference to Tx traffic until we find empty wmm queue. There is a corner case in which wmm queue becomes empty immediately after processing the packet(before 20msec) and there may be next packet coming after some time. In this case we should not resume scan operation. We will use new flag to check Tx traffic and resume scan operation only if there is no traffic for 200msec.

This is a flaw in recently implemented logic to handle Tx traffic and scan operation simultaneously. We missed to wakeup main thread to handle Tx traffic if scan is delayed/aborted. For some cards (SD8797, for example), firmware will send SLEEP event if there is no activity for 50msec. While handling the SLEEP event, main thread will be woken up and Tx packet gets sent hence. In worst case Tx traffic will be delayed for 50msec. For other cards, such as USB8797, firmware won't send SLEEP event. So, Tx traffic gets stuck if no other event triggers the wakeup of main thread. This patch fixes above issues. Signed-off-by: NAmitkumar Karwar <akarwar@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: NBing Zhao <bzhao@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

If scan operation is started when Tx traffic is already running, driver locks Tx queue until it gets completed. With this logic there is a delay for Tx packets. This patch implements new approach to give Tx path higher priority in this case. Driver internally sends multiple synchronous scan commands to firmware when scan is requested by user. Now we will make sure that Tx queue is empty everytime before sending next scan command. If Tx queue isn't empty scan command will be postponsed by 20msec. This rule will be followed until Tx queue becomes empty or timeout of 1 second happens. In case of timeout scan operation will be aborted.

cfg_workqueue was added to notify cfg80211 that scan, connect or disconnect is done by calling respective completion handlers. We can avoid use of this workqueue by calling those handlers from other places. 1) Call connect, disconnect completion handlers in their callback functions. ex. Call cfg80211_connect_result() in mwifiex_cfg80211_connect() 2) Call scan completion handler after parsing response of last scan command in a queue. After removing the workqueue, variables (assoc_request etc.) and checks used for mutual exclusion become redundant. Those are also removed in this patch.

Currently global wait condition (adapter->cmd_wait_q.condition) is used while sending synchronous commands to FW. When two threads enter in mwifiex_send_cmd_sync() routine at the same time, both the threads wait for their command responses. Since wait condition is same for both, they wake up simultaneously after getting response of 1st command. After this when a thread is waiting for command response of 3rd command, it wakes up after getting response of 2nd command and so on. Therefore we don't wait for the response of last command(0xaa) during unload. Hence while next time loading the driver command time out is seen for INIT command. This problem is resolved by having separate wait condition flag for each command(except scan command). Since scan command is treated differently (by maintaining scan pending q etc.), newly defined flag (scan_wait_q_woken) is used as a scan wait condition.
