[PATCH] iwlwifi: mvm: fix txq aggregation bug

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Oren Givon <oren.givon@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 2c4a247e42526d9aae8f5ce1f190b893532f2806 upstream.

Fix an issue where nullfunc frames and block ack requests
had the same tid as aggregation frames and were queued on
a non aggregation queue. The pending frames counter included
those frames but the check whether to decrement the pending
frames counter relied on the tid status and not on the txq id.
The result was an inconsistent state of the pending frames
counter followed by a failure to remove the station.
This failure triggered SYSASSERT 0x3421.

In addition, fix a situation in DQA mode where the number
of pending frames turned negative. This was due to the TX queue
being on the IWL_EMPTYING_HW_QUEUE_DELBA state and its frames
were still decremented.

Even though the SYSASSERT issue is fixed when DQA is disabled,
the issue is not completely solved when DQA is enabled and
should still be fixed.

This fix was created too late into the 4.7-rc series so it could not
be sent as -fixes.  Additionally, the "Cc: stable" tag was not added
by mistake and I'm adding it in this patch to make it clear that it
only applies to v.4.7.

Without this fix, we get lots of WARNINGs in the kernel messages and
the connection gets disrupted due to the erroneous tracking of TX
packets.
