047eaaf645 mwifiex: support conversion to any virtual interface type
Currently, we support virtual interface type change from
station<=>adhoc or station <=> p2p client/GO.
This patch adds support to change virtual interface type to
any of the type advertised in interface combinations.

1247cc1f43 mwifiex: add init parameter to init command routine
FW initialization routine can also be called while changing
virtual interface types.
This patch adds bool parameter "init" to init command routine
so as to differentiate between initialization during driver load
and change virtual interface handler.

4facc34a1f mwifiex: do not declare wdev as pointer
wdev is used even after del_virtual_interface handler in cfg80211
in nl80211_post_doit. Since we have freed wdev in handling of
del_virtual_intf, this can result into crash while deleting
interface.
Avoid this be not declaring wdev which part of
mwifiex_private structure but struct wireless_dev type.

2ab87d5d67 mwifiex: do not send key material cmd when delete wep key
This patch fixes memory corruption reported by community developer.

"Memory corruption occurs in mwifiex_ret_802_11_key_material_v1()
when a short command response is received without a key length
causing non initialised memory to be interpreted as the key
length resulting in a memcpy() overwriting the part of the
driver's private data structure beyond the key area."

For v1 key material API firmwares, there is no need to send
command to delete WEP key. WEP encryption/decryption is controlled
by mac_control command.

This patch avoids sending key material command in del_key case.

a659c4306b mwifiex: fix 5G association failure after leaving 2.4G IBSS
When assocaiting to an AP , mwifiex set supported data rates
based on target AP's capability. For 5G AP(11a mode), a/n/ac mode
would possibly be set.
However, for some chips which dont support 11AC mode current config_bands
will be used instead.

For example, if we join an IBSS in 11b mode ,adapter->config_bands
will be set to 1(11b mode). Then we leave IBSS ,and try to connect
5G a/n mode AP. At this time , only 11b mode data rates will be
supported in assoc request , which result in assoc failure with
reason code 18: Association denied due to requesting station not
supporting all rates.

This patch fix such a cornel case, by adding additional check for
current chip's 11ac capability.

71954f24c9 mwifiex: do not re-associate when already connected
In managed mode if the driver is getting a re-associate command
from cfg80211, driver deauthenticates with the AP internally and
sends a disconnected event to cfg80211 before completion of its
association process. The disconnected event then modifies the
SSID length as wdev->ssid_len = 0. So, upon receiving the connect
result event from driver, cfg80211 is unable to get that BSS from
the device's BSS list and generates the following WARN_ON message.

WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 857 at net/wireless/sme.c:658
         __cfg80211_connect_result+0x3a6/0x3e0 [cfg80211]()

Avoid re-association while the device is already associated to a
network. Also remove the internal deauthentication from the
association path.

6390d88529 mwifiex: fix memory corruption when unsetting multicast list
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.

9908b07465 mwifiex: fix negative cmd_pending count
cmd_pending is increased in mwifiex_wait_queue_complete() and
decreased in mwifiex_complete_cmd() currently.
If there are two or more commands in the cmd_pending_q the main
worker thread will pick up next command from cmd_pending_q
automatically after finishing current command. As a result
mwifiex_wait_queue_complete() will not be called because
the command is alreay completed. This leads to a negative
number in cmd_pending count.

Fix it by increasing cmd_pending when a cmd is queued into
cmd_pending_q and decreasing when that cmd is recycled. For scan
commands we don't perform inc/dec operations until it's moved
from scan_pending_q to cmd_pending_q. This covers both
synchronous and asynchronous commands.

00d7ea11ff mwifiex: fix race when queuing commands
Running the following script repeatedly on XO-4 with SD8787
produces command timeout and system lockup.

insmod mwifiex_sdio.ko
sleep 1
ifconfig eth0 up
iwlist eth0 scan &
sleep 0.5
rmmod mwifiex_sdio

mwifiex_send_cmd_async() is called for sync as well as async
commands. (mwifiex_send_cmd_sync() internally calls it for
sync command.)

"adapter->cmd_queued" gets filled inside mwifiex_send_cmd_async()
routine for both types of commands. But it is used only for sync
commands in mwifiex_wait_queue_complete(). This could lead to a
race when two threads try to queue a sync command with another
sync/async command simultaneously.

Get rid of global variable and pass command node as a parameter
to mwifiex_wait_queue_complete() to fix the problem.

8cef2c9df8 cfg80211: move TSF into IEs
While technically the TSF isn't an IE, it can be
necessary to distinguish between the TSF from a
beacon and a probe response, in particular in
order to know the next DTIM TBTT, as not all APs
are spec compliant wrt. TSF==0 being a DTIM TBTT
and thus the DTIM count needs to be taken into
account as well.

To allow this, move the TSF into the IE struct
so it can be known whence it came.

83c7aa1a14 cfg80211: remove scan ies NULL check
There's no way scan BSS IEs can be NULL as even
if the allocation fails the frame is discarded.
Remove some code checking for this and document
that it is always non-NULL.

5b112d3d09 cfg80211: pass wiphy to cfg80211_ref_bss/put_bss
This prepares for using the spinlock instead of krefs
which is needed in the next patch to track the refs
of combined BSSes correctly.

0d2e7a5c60 wireless: Remove unnecessary alloc/OOM messages, alloc cleanups
alloc failures already get standardized OOM
messages and a dump_stack.

Convert kzalloc's with multiplies to kcalloc.
Convert kmalloc's with multiplies to kmalloc_array.
Remove now unused variables.
Remove unnecessary memset after kzalloc->kcalloc.
Whitespace cleanups for these changes.

d7b9c5204e mwifiex: update config_bands during infra association
Currently "adapter->config_bands" is updated during infra
association only if channel is provided by user in "iw connect"
command. config_bands is used while preparing association
request to calculate supported rates by intersecting our rates
with the rates advertised by AP.

There is corner case in which we include zero rates in
supported rates TLV based on previous IBSS network history,
which leads to association failure.

This patch fixes the problem by correctly updating config_bands.

9c969d8ccb mwifiex: check wait_event_interruptible return value
wait_event_interruptible function returns -ERESTARTSYS if it's
interrupted by a signal. Driver should check the return value
and handle this case properly.

In mwifiex_wait_queue_complete() routine, as we are now checking
wait_event_interruptible return value, the condition check is not
required. Also, we have removed mwifiex_cancel_pending_ioctl()
call to avoid a chance of sending second command to FW by other path
as soon as we clear current command node. FW can not handle two
commands simultaneously.

904f137d47 mwifiex: fix struct member mismatch
Using bss->information_elements and treating
bss->len_beacon_ies as its size is wrong, the
real size is len_information_elements.

Found while I was reviewing the use of this
cfg80211 API (as it is actually potentially
broken due to races.)
