ipmi: Fix kernel panic at ipmi_ssif_thread()

2017-05-20T12:27:03+00:00

commit 6de65fcfdb51835789b245203d1bfc8d14cb1e06 upstream.

msg_written_handler() may set ssif_info->multi_data to NULL
when using ipmitool to write fru.

Before setting ssif_info->multi_data to NULL, add new local
pointer "data_to_send" and store correct i2c data pointer to
it to fix NULL pointer kernel panic and incorrect ssif_info->multi_pos.

wlcore: Add RX_BA_WIN_SIZE_CHANGE_EVENT event

2017-05-20T12:27:03+00:00

commit e7ee74b56f23ba447d3124f2eccc32033cca501d upstream.

This event is used by the Firmware to limit the RX BA win size
for a specific link.

The event handler updates the new size in the mac's sta->sta struct.

BA sessions opened for that link will use the new restricted
win_size. This limitation remains until a new update is received or
until the link is closed.

wlcore: Pass win_size taken from ieee80211_sta to FW

2017-05-20T12:27:03+00:00

commit 42c7372a111630dab200c2f959424f5ec3bf79a4 upstream.

When starting a new BA session, we must pass the win_size to the FW.

To do this we take max_rx_aggregation_subframes (BA RX win size)
which is stored in ieee80211_sta structure (e.g per link and not per HW)

We will use the value stored per link when passing the win_size to
firmware through the ACX_BA_SESSION_RX_SETUP command.

mac80211: RX BA support for sta max_rx_aggregation_subframes

2017-05-20T12:27:03+00:00

commit 480dd46b9d6812e5fb7172c305ee0f1154c26eed upstream.

The ability to change the max_rx_aggregation frames is useful
in cases of IOP.

There exist some devices (latest mobile phones and some AP's)
that tend to not respect a BA sessions maximum size (in Kbps).
These devices won't respect the AMPDU size that was negotiated during
association (even though they do respect the maximal number of packets).

This violation is characterized by a valid number of packets in
a single AMPDU. Even so, the total size will exceed the size negotiated
during association.

Eventually, this will cause some undefined behavior, which in turn
causes the hw to drop packets, causing the throughput to plummet.

This patch will make the subframe limitation to be held by each station,
instead of being held only by hw.

mac80211: pass block ack session timeout to to driver

2017-05-20T12:27:03+00:00

commit 50ea05efaf3bed7dd34bcc2635a8b3f53bd0ccc1 upstream.

Currently mac80211 does not inform the driver of the session
block ack timeout when starting a rx aggregation session.
Drivers that manage the reorder buffer need to know this
parameter.
Seeing that there are now too many arguments for the
drv_ampdu_action() function, wrap them inside a structure.

mac80211: pass RX aggregation window size to driver

commit fad471860c097844432c7cf5d3ae6a0a059c2bdc upstream.

Currently mac80211 does not inform the driver of the window
size when starting an RX aggregation session.
To enable managing the reorder buffer in the driver or hardware
the window size is needed.

Bluetooth: hci_intel: add missing tty-device sanity check

2017-05-20T12:27:02+00:00

commit dcb9cfaa5ea9aa0ec08aeb92582ccfe3e4c719a9 upstream.

Make sure to check the tty-device pointer before looking up the sibling
platform device to avoid dereferencing a NULL-pointer when the tty is
one end of a Unix98 pty.

Bluetooth: Fix user channel for 32bit userspace on 64bit kernel

2017-05-20T12:27:02+00:00

commit ab89f0bdd63a3721f7cd3f064f39fc4ac7ca14d4 upstream.

Running 32bit userspace on 64bit kernel results in MSG_CMSG_COMPAT being
defined as 0x80000000. This results in sendmsg failure if used from 32bit
userspace running on 64bit kernel. Fix this by accounting for MSG_CMSG_COMPAT
in flags check in hci_sock_sendmsg.
