8b804cae5e mac80211: backport upstream fix for unitialized lock usage
Backports upstream fix from 5.19

lockdep complains use of uninitialized spinlock at ieee80211_do_stop() [1],
for commit f856373e2f31ffd3 ("wifi: mac80211: do not wake queues on a vif
that is being stopped") guards clear_bit() using fq.lock even before
fq_init() from ieee80211_txq_setup_flows() initializes this spinlock.

According to discussion [2], Toke was not happy with expanding usage of
fq.lock. Since __ieee80211_wake_txqs() is called under RCU read lock, we
can instead use synchronize_rcu() for flushing ieee80211_wake_txqs().

3daf2d477e mac80211: ath10k: backport bus and device specific API 1 BDF selection
Some ath10k IPQ40xx devices like the MikroTik hAP ac2 and ac3 require the
BDF-s to be extracted from the device storage instead of shipping packaged
API 2 BDF-s.

This is required as MikroTik has started shipping boards that require BDF-s
to be updated, as otherwise their WLAN performance really suffers.
This is however impossible as the devices that require this are release under
the same revision and its not possible to differentiate them from devices
using the older BDF-s.

In OpenWrt we are extracting the calibration data during runtime and we are
able to extract the BDF-s in the same manner, however we cannot package the
BDF-s to API 2 format on the fly and can only use API 1 to provide BDF-s on
the fly.
This is an issue as the ath10k driver explicitly looks only for the board.bin
file and not for something like board-bus-device.bin like it does for pre-cal
data.
Due to this we have no way of providing correct BDF-s on the fly, so lets
extend the ath10k driver to first look for BDF-s in the board-bus-device.bin
format, for example: board-ahb-a800000.wifi.bin
If that fails, look for the default board file name as defined previously.

So, backport the upstream ath10k patch.

This patch fixes an invalid TX PA DC bias level on QCA9561, which

following a suggestion from nbd[1].

 "The patch looks wrong to me. I'm pretty sure that AR_CH0_TOP2 is the

  I believe this patch works by accident because it avoids writing a wrong
  value to that register."

f9ff282d17 mac80211 adjust QCA9561 PA bias
ath9k is setting the TX PA DC bias level different on QCA9561 and QCA9565
although they have the same radio IP-core, which results in a very low
output power and very low throughput as devices are further away from
the AP (compared to other 2.4GHz APs.)

In real life testing, without this patch the 2.4GHz throughput on Yuncore
XD3200 is around 10Mbps sitting close to the AP, and close to theoretical
maximum with the patch applied.

694757a08f kernel: ath10k: provide a build variant for small RAM devices
Based on: 1ac627024d ("kernel: ath10k-ct: provide a build variant for
small RAM devices")

Like described in the ath10k-ct-smallbuffers version, oom-killer gets
triggered frequently by devices with small RAM.

That change is necessary for many community mesh networks which use
ath10k based devices with too little RAM. The -ct driver has been
proven unstable if used with 11s meshing and only wave2 chipsets are
supporting 11s. Freifunk Berlin is nowadays assembling its
firmware-based completely of vanilla OpenWRT with some package additions
which are made through the imagebuilder. Therefore we cannot take the
approach other freifunk communities have taken to maintain that patch
downstream [1]. Other communities consider these devices as broken and
that change would pretty much give those devices a second life [2].

c90e10b62e mac80211: Fix deadlock when configuring wifi
The nl80211_set_wiphy() function was changed between kernel 5.11 and
5.12 to take the rdev->wiphy lock which should be freed at the end
again. The 500-mac80211_configure_antenna_gain.patch added some code
which just returned in some cases without unlocking. This resulted in a
deadlock with brcmfmac.
This patch fixes this by also jumping to the out label in case we want
to leave the function.
This fixes a hanging system when brcmfmac is in use. I do not know why
we do not see this with other driver.

The kernel returns very useful debug details when setting these OpenWrt
configuration options:
CONFIG_KERNEL_DETECT_HUNG_TASK=y

4c8dd973ef ath9k: OF: qca,disable-(2|5)ghz => ieee80211-freq-limit
OpenWrt maintains two special out-of-tree DT properties:
"qca,disable-5ghz" and "qca,disable-2ghz". These are implemented
in a mac80211 ath9k patch "550-ath9k-disable-bands-via-dt.patch".

With the things being what they are, now might be a good
point to switch the devices to the generic and upstream
"ieee80211-freq-limit" property. This property is much
broader and works differently. Instead of disabling the
drivers logic which would add the affected band and
channels. It now disables all channels which are not
within the specified frequency range.

025bd93f36 mac80211: backport upstream fixes for FragAttacks
From the patch series description:

Several security issues in the 802.11 implementations were found by
Mathy Vanhoef (New York University Abu Dhabi), who has published all
the details at

	https://papers.mathyvanhoef.com/usenix2021.pdf

Specifically, the following CVEs were assigned:

 * CVE-2020-24586 - Fragmentation cache not cleared on reconnection
 * CVE-2020-24587 - Reassembling fragments encrypted under different
                    keys
 * CVE-2020-24588 - Accepting non-SPP A-MSDU frames, which leads to
                    payload being parsed as an L2 frame under an
                    A-MSDU bit toggling attack
 * CVE-2020-26139 - Forwarding EAPOL from unauthenticated sender
 * CVE-2020-26140 - Accepting plaintext data frames in protected
                    networks
 * CVE-2020-26141 - Not verifying TKIP MIC of fragmented frames
 * CVE-2020-26142 - Processing fragmented frames as full frames
 * CVE-2020-26143 - Accepting fragmented plaintext frames in
                    protected networks
 * CVE-2020-26144 - Always accepting unencrypted A-MSDU frames that
                    start with RFC1042 header with EAPOL ethertype
 * CVE-2020-26145 - Accepting plaintext broadcast fragments as full
                    frames
 * CVE-2020-26146 - Reassembling encrypted fragments with non-consecutive
                    packet numbers
 * CVE-2020-26147 - Reassembling mixed encrypted/plaintext fragments

In general, the scope of these attacks is that they may allow an
attacker to
 * inject L2 frames that they can more or less control (depending on the
   vulnerability and attack method) into an otherwise protected network;
 * exfiltrate (some) network data under certain conditions, this is
   specific to the fragmentation issues.

A subset of these issues is known to apply to the Linux IEEE 802.11
implementation (mac80211). Where it is affected, the attached patches
fix the issues, even if not all of them reference the exact CVE IDs.

In addition, driver and/or firmware updates may be necessary, as well
as potentially more fixes to mac80211, depending on how drivers are
using it.

Specifically, for Intel devices, firmware needs to be updated to the
most recently released versions (which was done without any reference
to the security issues) to address some of the vulnerabilities.

To have a single set of patches, I'm also including patches for the
ath10k and ath11k drivers here.

We currently don't have information about how other drivers are, if
at all, affected.

610843f3bc mac80211: rt2x00: save survey for every channel visited
rt2800 olny gives you survey for current channel.

Survey-based ACS algorithms are failing to perform their job when working
with rt2800.

Make rt2800 save survey for every channel visited and be able to give away
that information.

There is a bug registred https://dev.archive.openwrt.org/ticket/19081 and
this patch solves the issue.

e0d482fdcf rt2x00: mt7620: differentiate based on SoC's CHIP_VER
The vendor driver does things differently based on what it finds in the
SoC's CHIP_VER register, which should tell whether this is MT7620N or
MT7620A (PKG) and probably also the revision (VER) and most likely
also something about the silicon implementer (ECO).
Introduce codepaths just like the ones in the vendor driver to handle
the different chips properly.

Some of those paths are most likely dead code and left-overs from FPGA
versions or early prototypes of the chip. It'd thus be great if people
can post their kernel logs, at least the line telling the chip version
and eco, so we know what's actually out there in the wild -- all I
could find is
[ 0.000000] SoC Type: Ralink MT7620A ver:2 eco:6
and
[ 0.000000] SoC Type: Ralink MT7620N ver:2 eco:6
which would make things easier, as then we really just need to know
whether it's MT7620N or MT7620A and not care about FPGA or prototypes
with ver <= 1 and eco <= 2.
