2baacfe833 wifi: rtlwifi: avoid stack size warning for _read_eeprom_info
txpower_info_{2g,5g} are too big to fit on the stack, but in most of the
rtlwifi variants this stays below the warning limit for stack frames.
In rtl8192ee and a few others, I see a case where clang decides to fully
inline this into rtl92ee_read_eeprom_info, triggering this warning:

drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtlwifi/rtl8192ee/hw.c:2178:6: error: stack frame size (1312) exceeds limit (1280) in 'rtl92ee_read_eeprom_info' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than]

Mark _rtl92ee_read_txpower_info_from_hwpg() as noinline_for_stack to
and mark _rtl92ee_get_chnl_group() as __always_inline to make clang
behave the same way as gcc. Inlining _rtl92ee_get_chnl_group helps
let the compiler see that the index is always in range. The same
change appears to be necessary in all rtlwifi variants.

A more thorough approach would be to avoid the use of the two structures
on the stack entirely and combine them with the struct rtl_efuse
data that is dynamically allocated and holds the same information.

4c95423b6f wifi: rtlwifi: Constify struct rtl_hal_ops and rtl_hal_cfg
'struct rtl_hal_ops' and 'struct rtl_hal_cfg' are not modified in these
drivers.

Constifying this structure moves some data to a read-only section, so
increase overall security, especially when the structure holds some
function pointers.

Constification of rtl_hal_cfg is only needed in rtl8192cu/sw.c

On a x86_64, with allmodconfig, as an example:

8ca4cdef93 wifi: rtlwifi: rtl8192cu: Fix TX aggregation
rtl8192cu is checking rtl_mac.tids when deciding if it should enable
aggregation. This is wrong because rtl_mac.tids is not initialised
anywhere. Check rtl_sta_info.tids instead, which is initialised.

Also, when enabling aggregation also enable RTS. The vendor driver does
this, my router does this. It seems like the thing to do.

Also also, it seems right to set the AMPDU density only when enabling
aggregation.

Also also also, delete the unused member rtl_mac.tids and the unused
macros RTL_AGG_ON and RTL_AGG_OFF.

Naturally, with working AMPDU the download/upload speeds are better.
Before: 59/32 Mbps.
After:  68/46 Mbps.

42ffccd0a3 wifi: rtlwifi: rtl_usb: Store the endpoint addresses
And use the stored addresses in rtl8192cu instead of hardcoding them.

This is what the vendor drivers do.

Perhaps this is not strictly necessary for RTL8192CU devices. However,
the dual mac version of RTL8192DU has two USB interfaces, each with its
own set of endpoints. Hardcoding their addresses in the upcoming
rtl8192du driver would require making some assumptions which I'm not
qualified to make.

bcfcbf23a9 wifi: rtlwifi: rtl8192cu: Fix 2T2R chip type detection
rtl8192cu handles 1T1R devices (RTL8188CUS), 1T2R devices (RTL8191CU),
and 2T2R devices (RTL8192CU). The 2T2R devices were incorrectly detected
as 1T2R because of a mistake in the IS_92C_1T2R macro.

The visible effect of this is that the firmware was allowed to use
TX rates only up to MCS7.

Fix the IS_92C_1T2R macro.

Now my 2T2R device has much better upload speed.
Before: 46 Mbps.
After:  82 Mbps.

Also fix a debug message which was printing "RF_1T1R" even for 1T2R
chips.

b06439c668 wifi: rtlwifi: Speed up firmware loading for USB
Currently it takes almost 6 seconds to upload the firmware for RTL8192CU
(and 11 seconds for RTL8192DU). That's because the firmware is uploaded
one byte at a time.

Also, after plugging the device, the firmware gets uploaded three times
before a connection to the AP is established.

Maybe this is fine for most users, but when testing changes to the
driver it's really annoying to wait so long.

Speed up the firmware upload by writing chunks of 64 bytes at a time.
This way it takes about 110 ms for RTL8192CU (and about 210 ms for
RTL8192DU).

PCI devices could upload it in chunks of 4 bytes, but I don't have any
to test and commit 89d32c9071 ("rtlwifi: Download firmware as bytes
rather than as dwords") decided otherwise anyway.

Allocate memory for the firmware image with kmalloc instead of vzalloc
because this memory is passed directly to usb_control_msg(), which
can't take memory allocated by vmalloc.

046d2e7c50 mac80211: prepare sta handling for MLO support
Currently in mac80211 each STA object is represented
using sta_info datastructure with the associated
STA specific information and drivers access ieee80211_sta
part of it.

With MLO (Multi Link Operation) support being added
in 802.11be standard, though the association is logically
with a single Multi Link capable STA, at the physical level
communication can happen via different advertised
links (uniquely identified by Channel, operating class,
BSSID) and hence the need to handle multiple link
STA parameters within a composite sta_info object
called the MLD STA. The different link STA part of
MLD STA are identified using the link address which can
be same or different as the MLD STA address and unique
link id based on the link vif.

To support extension of such a model, the sta_info
datastructure is modified to hold multiple link STA
objects with link specific params currently within
sta_info moved to this new structure. Similarly this is
done for ieee80211_sta as well which will be accessed
within mac80211 as well as by drivers, hence trivial
driver changes are expected to support this.

For current non MLO supported drivers, only one link STA
is present and link information is accessed via 'deflink'
member.

For MLO drivers, we still need to define the APIs etc. to
get the correct link ID and access the correct part of
the station info.

Currently in mac80211, all link STA info are accessed directly
via deflink. These will be updated to access via link pointers
indexed by link id with MLO support patches, with link id
being 0 for non MLO supported cases.

Except for couple of macro related changes, below spatch takes
care of updating mac80211 and driver code to access to the
link STA info via deflink.

Hardware initialization for the rtl8188cu can run for as long as 350 ms,
and the routine may be called with interrupts disabled. To avoid locking
the machine for this long, the current routine saves the interrupt flags
and enables local interrupts. The problem is that it restores the flags

3f649ab728 treewide: Remove uninitialized_var() usage
Using uninitialized_var() is dangerous as it papers over real bugs[1]
(or can in the future), and suppresses unrelated compiler warnings
(e.g. "unused variable"). If the compiler thinks it is uninitialized,
either simply initialize the variable or make compiler changes.

In preparation for removing[2] the[3] macro[4], remove all remaining
needless uses with the following script:

git grep '\buninitialized_var\b' | cut -d: -f1 | sort -u | \
	xargs perl -pi -e \
		's/\buninitialized_var\(([^\)]+)\)/\1/g;
		 s:\s*/\* (GCC be quiet|to make compiler happy) \*/$::g;'

drivers/video/fbdev/riva/riva_hw.c was manually tweaked to avoid
pathological white-space.

No outstanding warnings were found building allmodconfig with GCC 9.3.0
for x86_64, i386, arm64, arm, powerpc, powerpc64le, s390x, mips, sparc64,
alpha, and m68k.

It is because 8192cu doesn't implement usb_cmd_send_packet(), and this
patch just frees the skb within the function to resolve memleak problem
by now. Since 8192cu doesn't turn on fwctrl_lps that needs to download
command packet for firmware via the function, applying this patch doesn't
affect driver behavior.

As a first step in the conversion, the macros that set the RX and TX
descriptors are converted to static inline routines, and the names are
changed from upper to lower case. To minimize the changes in a given
step, the input descriptor information is left as as a byte array
(u8 *), even though it should be a little-endian word array (__le32 *).
That will be changed in the next patch.

Several places where checkpatch.pl complains about a space after a cast
and other warnings are fixed.

In the process of converting the bit manipulation macros were converted
to use GENMASK(), the compiler reported a value too big for the field.
The offending statement was trying to write 0x100 into a 5-bit field.
An accompaning comment says to set bit 3, thus the code is changed
appropriately.

This error has been in the driver since its initial submission.

b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.
