This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled wifi: rtl8xxxu: Fix the channel width reporting to the 5.15-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: wifi-rtl8xxxu-fix-the-channel-width-reporting.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.15 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit e8a3d4b2d05a3caaf9ea52c013e2785962361b42 Author: Bitterblue Smith <rtl8821cerfe2@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Dec 1 16:15:08 2022 +0200 wifi: rtl8xxxu: Fix the channel width reporting [ Upstream commit 76c16af2cb10282274596e21add2c9f0b95c941b ] The gen 2 chips RTL8192EU and RTL8188FU periodically send the driver reports about the TX rate, and the driver passes these reports to sta_statistics. The reports from RTL8192EU may or may not include the channel width. The reports from RTL8188FU do not include it. Only access the c2h->ra_report.bw field if the report (skb) is big enough. The other problem fixed here is that the code was actually never changing the channel width initially reported by rtl8xxxu_bss_info_changed because the value of RATE_INFO_BW_20 is 0.
