Network devices can allocate reasources and private memory using
netdev_ops->ndo_init(). However, the release of these resources
can occur in one of two different places.
Either netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() or netdev->destructor().
The decision of which operation frees the resources depends upon
whether it is necessary for all netdev refs to be released before it
is safe to perform the freeing.
netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() presumably can occur right after the
NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier completes and the unicast and multicast
address lists are flushed.
netdev->destructor(), on the other hand, does not run until the
netdev references all go away.
Further complicating the situation is that netdev->destructor()
almost universally does also a free_netdev().
This creates a problem for the logic in register_netdevice().
Because all callers of register_netdevice() manage the freeing
of the netdev, and invoke free_netdev(dev) if register_netdevice()
fails.
If netdev_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, but something else fails inside
of register_netdevice(), it does call ndo_ops->ndo_uninit(). But
it is not able to invoke netdev->destructor().
This is because netdev->destructor() will do a free_netdev() and
then the caller of register_netdevice() will do the same.
However, this means that the resources that would normally be released
by netdev->destructor() will not be.
Over the years drivers have added local hacks to deal with this, by
invoking their destructor parts by hand when register_netdevice()
fails.
Many drivers do not try to deal with this, and instead we have leaks.
Let's close this hole by formalizing the distinction between what
private things need to be freed up by netdev->destructor() and whether
the driver needs unregister_netdevice() to perform the free_netdev().
netdev->priv_destructor() performs all actions to free up the private
resources that used to be freed by netdev->destructor(), except for
free_netdev().
netdev->needs_free_netdev is a boolean that indicates whether
free_netdev() should be done at the end of unregister_netdevice().
Now, register_netdevice() can sanely release all resources after
ndo_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, by invoking both ndo_ops->ndo_uninit()
and netdev->priv_destructor().
And at the end of unregister_netdevice(), we invoke
netdev->priv_destructor() and optionally call free_netdev().

'chan_stats' is (re)allocated in _mwifiex_fw_dpc() ->
mwifiex_init_channel_scan_gap(), which is called whenever the device is
initialized -- at probe or at reset.
But we only free it in we completely unregister the adapter, meaning we
leak a copy of it during every reset.
Let's free it in the shutdown / removal paths instead (and in the
error-handling path), to avoid the leak.
Ideally, we can eventually unify much of mwifiex_shutdown_sw() and
mwifiex_remove_card() (way too much copy-and-paste) to reduce the burden
on bugfixes like this. But that's work for tomorrow.

If we reset because of a command timeout, we should reset this flag.
Otherwise, we might erroneously think the next command after reset is
timing out, and trigger another reset.
The above behavior effectively neuters the automatic card_reset()
behavior, as it means we will never recover from a command timeout
properly (and in fact, we might enter an infinite loop:
timeout -> reset -> (fake) timeout -> reset -> ...
This fixes a bug introduced with introduction of PCIe function level
reset support, but it was carried into the SDIO driver when it was
converted to use the same codepaths. And this is currently mostly a
problem only in the SDIO driver, because it's the only one with
automatic card_reset() support (e.g., on command timeout). But it will
be a problem for PCIe too, as I'm working on supporting automatic
card_reset() for PCIe.

When resetting the device, we take a synchronous firmware-loading code
path, which borrows a lot from the asynchronous path used at probe time.
We don't catch errors correctly though, which means that in the PCIe
driver, we may try to dereference the 'adapter' struct after
mwifiex_fw_dpc() has freed it. See this (erronous) print in
mwifiex_pcie_reset_notify():
mwifiex_dbg(adapter, INFO, "%s, successful\n", __func__);
Let's instead refactor the synchronous (or "!req_fw_nowait") path so
that we propagate errors and handle them properly.
This fixes a use-after-free issue in the PCIe driver, as well as a
misleading debug message ("successful"). It looks like the SDIO driver
doesn't have these problems, since it doesn't do anything after
mwifiex_reinit_sw().

If we fail to reinit the FW when resetting the device (in the
synchronous version of mwifiex_init_hw_fw() -> mwifiex_fw_dpc()),
mwifiex_fw_dpc() will tear down the interface and free up the adapter.
But we don't actually check for all failure cases of mwifiex_fw_dpc(),
so some of them fall through and dereference adapter->fw_done with a
freed adapter, causing a use-after-free bug.
In any case, mwifiex_fw_dpc() will always signal FW completion -- in the
error OR success case -- so at best, this was repeat work. Let's not do
it.

We manually init wakeup info, but we don't detach it on device removal.
This means that if we (for example) rmmod + modprobe the driver, the

complain in the logs:

AFAICT, there's no other negative effect.
But we can fix this by disabling wakeup on remove, similar to what a few
other drivers do (e.g., the power supply framework).

If we don't have an out-of-band wakeup IRQ configured through DT (as
most platforms don't), then we fall out of this function with
'irq_wakeup == 0'. Other code (e.g., mwifiex_disable_wake() and
mwifiex_enable_wake()) treats 'irq_wakeup >= 0' as a valid IRQ, and so
we end up calling {enable,disable}_irq() on IRQ 0.

It's possible for the FW init sequence to fail, which will trigger a
device cleanup sequence in mwifiex_fw_dpc(). This sequence can race with
device suspend() or remove() (e.g., reboot or unbind), and can trigger
use-after-free issues. Currently, this driver attempts (poorly) to
synchronize remove() using a semaphore, but it doesn't protect some of
the critical sections properly. Particularly, we grab a pointer to the
adapter struct (card->adapter) without checking if it's being freed or
not. We later do a NULL check on the adapter, but that doesn't work if
the adapter was freed.
Also note that the PCIe interface driver doesn't ever set card->adapter
to NULL, so even if we get the synchronization right, we still might try
to redo the cleanup in ->remove(), even if the FW init failure sequence
already did it.
This patch replaces the static semaphore with a per-device completion
struct, and uses that completion to synchronize the remove() thread with
the mwifiex_fw_dpc(). A future patch will utilize this completion to
synchronize the suspend() thread as well.

Beacon report radio measurement requires reporting observed BSSs
on the channels specified in the beacon request. If the measurement
mode is set to passive or active, it requires actually performing a
scan (passive or active, accordingly), and reporting the time that
the scan was started and the time each beacon/probe was received
(both in terms of TSF of the BSS of the requesting AP). If the
request mode is table, this information is optional.
In addition, the radio measurement request specifies the channel
dwell time for the measurement.
In order to use scan for beacon report when the mode is active or
passive, add a parameter to scan request that specifies the
channel dwell time, and add scan start time and beacon received time
to scan results information.
Supporting beacon report is required for Multi Band Operation (MBO).

and CONFIG_MWIFIEX=y:
drivers/net/built-in.o: In function `mwifiex_fw_dpc':
:(.text+0xff138): undefined reference to `sdio_claim_host'
:(.text+0xff158): undefined reference to `sdio_release_host'
The right way to do this is to have the sdio specific code in the
sdio driver front-end, and we already have a callback pointer that
we can use for this after exporting the generic fw download
function from the core driver.

The action 'check for winner' and 'download firmware' should be an
atomic action. This is true for btmrvl driver but not mwmfiex, which
cause firmware download to fail when the following senerio happens:
1) mwifiex check winner status: true
2) btmrvl check winner status: true, and start downloading firmware
3) mwfieix tries to download firmware, but failed because btmrvl is
already downloading.
This won't happen if 1) and 3) is an atomic action. This patch adds
sdio_claim/release_host call around those two actions to make sure it's
atomic.

Host hang is observed if card is removed before firmware download
gets completed. In this case, firmware will be failed to download and
adapter structure gets freed.
In other thread, mwifiex_remove_card() waits on semaphore until the
firmware download fails. This wait is not necessary and may result in
invalid adapter access.
This patch uses down_trylock to return immediately so that hang issue
won't occur.

Driver supports Tx status ack feature. When hostapd/
wpa_supplicant asks for ack status of an EAPOL/ACTION
frame, driver maintains a cloned skb for the packet
until TX_STATUS event is received from firmware.
Cloned skb queue gets flushed when connection is terminated
or driver is unloaded.
Let's reduce the queue size to avoid unnecessarily
keeping memory allocated when environment is busy.
