From c729fe02694a583d38ef6636837fce4b4b6fa8e8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?utf8?q?Rafa=C5=82=20Mi=C5=82ecki?= Date: Fri, 8 Jul 2016 18:17:53 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: backport brcmfmac changes from 2016-07-08 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit To work correctly hostapd requires wireless driver to allow interfaces removal. It was working with brcmfmac only partially. Firmware for BCM43602 got some special hack (feature?) that allowed removing all interfaces by disabling mbss mode. It wasn't working with BCM4366 firmware and remaining interfaces were preventing hostapd from starting again. Those patches add support for "interface_remove" firmware method which works with BCM4366 firmware and they make it finally possible to use BCM4366 & brcmfmac & multiple interfaces.

The listener +(del_virtual_intf callback) was (usually) returning with success before +we even called unregister_netdev(ice). + +Please note this couldn't be simply fixed by changing order of calls in +brcmf_fweh_handle_if_event as unregistering interface earlier could free +struct brcmf_if. + +Another problem of current implementation are possible lockups. Focus on +the time slot between calling event handler and removing Linux +interface. During that time original caller may leave (unlocking rtnl +semaphore) *and* another call to the same code may be done (locking it +again). If that happens our event handler will stuck at removing Linux +interface, it won't handle another event and will block process holding +rtnl lock. + +This can be simply solved by unregistering interface in a proper +callback, right after receiving confirmation event from firmware.
