commit b7b146c9c9a0248cc57da71244f672ebc54bbef1 upstream.
Only set sc->rx.discard_next to rx_stats->rs_more when actually
discarding the current descriptor.
Also, fix a detection of broken descriptors:
First the code checks if the current descriptor is not done.
Then it checks if the next descriptor is done.
Add a check that afterwards checks the first descriptor again, because
it might have been completed in the mean time.
This fixes a regression introduced in

commit 558ff225de80ac95b132d3a115ddadcd64498b4f upstream.
When passing tx frames to the U-APSD queue for powersave poll responses,
the ath_atx_tid pointer needs to be passed to ath_tx_setup_buffer for
proper sequence number accounting.
This fixes high latency and connection stability issues with ath9k
running as AP and a few kinds of mobile phones as client, when PS-Poll
is heavily used

commit 21f8aaee0c62708654988ce092838aa7df4d25d8 upstream.
We check tid->sched without a lock taken on ath_tx_aggr_sleep(). That
is race condition which can result of doing list_del(&tid->list) twice
(second time with poisoned list node) and cause crash like shown below:

commit b3050248c167871ca52cfdb2ce78aa2460249346 upstream.
The minimum CCA power threshold values have to be adjusted
for existing cards to be in compliance with new regulations.
Newer cards will make use of the values obtained from EEPROM,
support for this was added earlier. To make sure that cards
that are already in use and don't have proper values in EEPROM,
do not violate regulations, use the initvals instead.

PS could be enabled by userspace based on various factors

commit 2fa4cb905605c863bf570027233af7afd8149ae4 upstream.
sta_rc_update() callback must be atomic, hence we can not take mutexes
or do other operations, which can sleep in ath9k_htc_sta_rc_update().
I think we can just return from ath9k_htc_sta_rc_update(), if it is
called without IEEE80211_RC_SUPP_RATES_CHANGED bit. That will help
with scheduling while atomic bug for most cases (except mesh and IBSS
modes).
For mesh and IBSS I do not see other solution like creating additional
workqueue, because sending firmware command require us to sleep, but
this can be done in additional patch.

Disable it until this feature is tested well. Also,
remove the feature bit for AR9565 since it is
a single-band card and doesn't support this feature.

commit ff9a93f2ebb88ac7aab9568de80b64b92078e96d upstream.
Accessing the current channel definition in mac80211
when processing RX packets is problematic because it
could have been updated when a scan is issued. Since a
channel change involves flushing the existing packets
in the RX queue before a chip-reset is done, they would
be processed using the wrong band/channel information.
To avoid this, use the current channel information
maintained in the driver.

commit 73f0b56a1ff64e7fb6c3a62088804bab93bcedc2 upstream.
This patch adds a driver workaround for a HW issue.
A race condition in the HW results in missing interrupts,
which can be avoided by a read/write with the ISR register.
All chips in the AR9002 series are affected by this bug - AR9003
and above do not have this problem.

commit bbf807bc0697e577c137a5fffb30fca7c6a45da1 upstream.
When not aggregating packets, fi->framelen should be passed in as length
to calculate the duration. Before the tx path rework, ath_tx_fill_desc
was called for either one aggregate, or one single frame, with the
length of the packet or the aggregate as a parameter.
After the rework, ath_tx_sched_aggr can pass a burst of single frames to
ath_tx_fill_desc and sets len=0.
Fix broken duration calculation by overriding the length in ath_tx_fill_desc
before passing it to ath_buf_set_rate.

commit 7ede612fd615abcda0cc30e5bef2a70f4cf4f75c upstream.
The regression was introduced in the following commit:
0967e01e8e713ed2982fb4eba8ba13794e9a6e89
"ath5k: make use of the new rate control API"
ath5k_tx_frame_completed saves the intended per-rate retry counts before
they are cleared by ieee80211_tx_info_clear_status, however at this
point the information in info->status.rates is incomplete.
This causes significant throughput degradation and excessive packet loss
on links where high bit rates don't work properly.
Move the copy from bf->rates a few lines up to ensure that the saved
retry counts are updated, and that they are really cleared in
info->status.rates after the call to ieee80211_tx_info_clear_status.

When a packet is passed from mac80211 to the driver with the
IEEE80211_TX_CTL_PS_RESPONSE flag set, it bypasses the normal driver
internal queueing and goes directly to the UAPSD queue.
When that happens, packets that are part of a BlockAck session still
need to be tracked as such inside the driver, otherwise it will create
discrepancies in the receiver BA reorder window, causing traffic stalls.
This only happens in AP mode with powersave-enabled clients.

"rs_moreaggr".

is enabled for AR9340 also (DB120 etc.), since it uses a PLL
design identical to AR9330. This is not required for AR9485 and AR9550.

ath9k_htc adds padding between the 802.11 header and the payload during
TX by moving the header. When handing the frame back to mac80211 for TX
status handling the header is not moved back into its original position.
This can result in a too small skb headroom when entering ath9k_htc
again (due to a soft retransmission for example) causing an
skb_under_panic oops.
Fix this by moving the 802.11 header back into its original position
before returning the frame to mac80211 as other drivers like rt2x00
or ath5k do.

CSA is only enabled for one interface, but the same limitation applies
for mac80211 too. It checks whether the beacon has been sent (different
approaches for non-EDMA-enabled and EDMA-enabled devices), and completes
the channel switch after that.
