A soft lockup was observed on ARM multicore platform while UDP RX iperf was running on station. Reason for this is delay_main_task was not taken into consideration while jumping to process_start. Now if delay_main_task is true, we would exit mwifiex_main_process instead of going to process_start again. This ensure other process is scheduled on this CPU and soft lockup is avoided.

We have a logic in driver to delay or abort low priority scan to serve Tx traffic effectively. With scan channel gap support added, firmware now allows driver to send Tx data while scan operation is in progress. Hence low priority scan handling in driver is not required now.

Sometimes pending internal scan commands are delayed to give preference to Tx traffic. 'scan_processing' flag has been checked at the beginning of delay timer routine to know if in the meantime scan operation has been cancelled. There is a corner case where pending scan commands are emptied after scan_processing flag check is passed. In this case wrong pointer returned by list_first_entry() is passed to list_del() which causes system hang. This patch fixes the issue by adding list_empty() check.

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70191 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77581 It is observed that sometimes Tx packet is downloaded without adding driver's txpd header. This results in firmware parsing garbage data as packet length. Sometimes firmware is unable to read the packet if length comes out as invalid. This stops further traffic and timeout occurs. The root cause is uninitialized fields in tx_info(skb->cb) of packet used to get garbage values. In this case if MWIFIEX_BUF_FLAG_REQUEUED_PKT flag is mistakenly set, txpd header was skipped. This patch makes sure that tx_info is correctly initialized to fix the problem.

Add a new argument for ndo_select_queue() callback that passes a fallback handler. This gets invoked through netdev_pick_tx(); fallback handler is currently __netdev_pick_tx() as most drivers invoke this function within their customized implementation in case for skbs that don't need any special handling. This fallback handler can then be replaced on other call-sites with different queue selection methods (e.g. in packet sockets, pktgen etc). This also has the nice side-effect that __netdev_pick_tx() is then only invoked from netdev_pick_tx() and export of that function to modules can be undone. Suggested-by: NDavid S.

Currently, the tx queue were selected implicitly in ndo_dfwd_start_xmit(). The will cause several issues: - NETIF_F_LLTX were removed for macvlan, so txq lock were done for macvlan instead of lower device which misses the necessary txq synchronization for lower device such as txq stopping or frozen required by dev watchdog or control path. - dev_hard_start_xmit() was called with NULL txq which bypasses the net device watchdog. - dev_hard_start_xmit() does not check txq everywhere which will lead a crash when tso is disabled for lower device. Fix this by explicitly introducing a new param for .ndo_select_queue() for just selecting queues in the case of l2 forwarding offload. netdev_pick_tx() was also extended to accept this parameter and dev_queue_xmit_accel() was used to do l2 forwarding transmission. With this fixes, NETIF_F_LLTX could be preserved for macvlan and there's no need to check txq against NULL in dev_hard_start_xmit(). Also there's no need to keep a dedicated ndo_dfwd_start_xmit() and we can just reuse the code of dev_queue_xmit() to do the transmission. In the future, it was also required for macvtap l2 forwarding support since it provides a necessary synchronization method.

601216e1 "mwifiex: process RX packets in SDIO IRQ thread directly" introduced a command timeout issue which can be reproduced easily on an AM33xx platform using a test application written by Daniel Mack: https://gist.github.com/zonque/6579314 mwifiex_main_process() is called from both the SDIO handler and the workqueue. In case an interrupt occurs right after the int_status check, but before updating the mwifiex_processing flag, this interrupt gets lost, resulting in a command timeout and consequently a card reset. Let main_proc_lock protect both int_status and mwifiex_processing flag. This fixes the interrupt lost issue.

Bug 60747 - 1286:2044 [Microsoft Surface Pro] Marvell 88W8797 wifi show 3 interface under network https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60747 This issue was also reported previously by OLPC and some folks from the community. There are 3 network interfaces with different types being created when mwifiex driver is loaded: 1. mlan0 (infra. STA) 2. uap0 (AP) 3. p2p0 (P2P_CLIENT) The Network Manager attempts to use all 3 interfaces above without filtering the managed interface type. As the result, 3 identical interfaces are displayed under network manager. If user happens to click on an entry under which its interface is uap0 or p2p0, the association will fail. Work around it by removing the creation of AP and P2P interfaces at driver loading time. These interfaces can be added with 'iw' or other applications manually when they are needed.

During tear down (e.g. mwifiex_sdio_remove during system suspend), mwifiex left IRQs enabled for a significant period of time when it was unable to handle them correctly. This caused interrupt storms and interfered with the bluetooth interface on the same SDIO card. Solve this by disabling interrupts at the point when they can no longer be handled correctly, which is at the start of mwifiex_remove_card(). For cleanliness, we now enable interrupts in the mwifiex_add_card() path, to be symmetrical with the disabling of interrupts. We also couple the registration of the sdio IRQ handler with the actual enable/disable of interrupts at the hardware level. I also removed a write to this register in mwifiex_init_sdio which seemed pointless and won't cause any ill effects now that we only register the SDIO IRQ handler when we are ready to accept interrupts.

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.

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.
