wifi: mwifiex: Add missing compatible string for SD8787

2023-02-25T10:13:29+00:00

commit 36dd7a4c6226133b0b7aa92b8e604e688d958d0c upstream. Commit e3fffc1f0b47 ("devicetree: document new marvell-8xxx and pwrseq-sd8787 options") documented a compatible string for SD8787 in the devicetree bindings, but neglected to add it to the mwifiex driver.

treewide: Convert del_timer() to timer_shutdown()

2022-12-25T21:38:09+00:00

Due to several bugs caused by timers being re-armed after they are shutdown and just before they are freed, a new state of timers was added called "shutdown". After a timer is set to this state, then it can no longer be re-armed. The following script was run to find all the trivial locations where del_timer() or del_timer_sync() is called in the same function that the object holding the timer is freed. It also ignores any locations where the timer->function is modified between the del_timer*() and the free(), as that is not considered a "trivial" case. This was created by using a coccinelle script and the following commands: $ cat timer.cocci @@ expression ptr, slab; identifier timer, rfield; @@ ( - del_timer(&ptr->timer); + timer_shutdown(&ptr->timer); | - del_timer_sync(&ptr->timer); + timer_shutdown_sync(&ptr->timer); ) ... when strict when != ptr->timer ( kfree_rcu(ptr, rfield); | kmem_cache_free(slab, ptr); | kfree(ptr); ) $ spatch timer.cocci . > /tmp/t.patch $ patch -p1 < /tmp/t.patch Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20221123201306.823305113@linutronix.de/ Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (Google) Acked-by: Pavel Machek [ LED ] Acked-by: Kalle Valo [ wireless ] Acked-by: Paolo Abeni [ networking ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

wifi: Use kstrtobool() instead of strtobool()

2022-11-08T07:39:04+00:00

strtobool() is the same as kstrtobool(). However, the latter is more used within the kernel. In order to remove strtobool() and slightly simplify kstrtox.h, switch to the other function name.

==================== pull-request: wireless-next-2022-10-28 First set of patches v6.2. mac80211 refactoring continues for Wi-Fi 7. All mac80211 driver are now converted to use internal TX queues, this might cause some regressions so we wanted to do this early in the cycle. Note: wireless tree was merged[1] to wireless-next to avoid some conflicts with mac80211 patches between the trees. Unfortunately there are still two smaller conflicts in net/mac80211/util.c which Stephen also reported[2]. In the first conflict initialise scratch_len to "params->scratch_len ?: 3 * params->len" (note number 3, not 2!) and in the second conflict take the version which uses elems->scratch_pos.

treewide: use get_random_u32() when possible

2022-10-11T23:42:58+00:00

The prandom_u32() function has been a deprecated inline wrapper around get_random_u32() for several releases now, and compiles down to the exact same code. Replace the deprecated wrapper with a direct call to the real function. The same also applies to get_random_int(), which is just a wrapper around get_random_u32(). This was done as a basic find and replace.

mwifiex: fix sleep in atomic context bugs caused by dev_coredumpv

2022-09-22T06:06:00+00:00

There are sleep in atomic context bugs when uploading device dump data in mwifiex. The root cause is that dev_coredumpv could not be used in atomic contexts, because it calls dev_set_name which include operations that may sleep. The call tree shows execution paths that could lead to bugs: (Interrupt context) fw_dump_timer_fn mwifiex_upload_device_dump dev_coredumpv(..., GFP_KERNEL) dev_coredumpm() kzalloc(sizeof(*devcd), gfp); //may sleep dev_set_name kobject_set_name_vargs kvasprintf_const(GFP_KERNEL, ...); //may sleep kstrdup(s, GFP_KERNEL); //may sleep The corresponding fail log is shown below: [ 135.275938] usb 1-1: == mwifiex dump information to /sys/class/devcoredump start [ 135.281029] BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at include/linux/sched/mm.h:265 ...
