Subject: [PATCH v4 00/21] wifi: mt76: mt7925/mt7921: stability and MLO fixes
Date: Thu, 15 Jan 2026 17:04:58 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260116010519.37001-1-zac@zacbowling.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <CAGp9LzpuyXRDa=TxqY+Xd5ZhDVvNayWbpMGDD1T0g7apkn7P0A@mail.gmail.com>
This series addresses stability issues in the mt7925 (WiFi 7) and mt7921
drivers, focusing on NULL pointer dereferences, mutex protection, and
MLO (Multi-Link Operation) handling.
Changes since v3:
- Added mt7921 driver fixes (patches 18-19) to address mutex handling
issues that also affected the older driver
- Fixed mutex deadlocks in mt7921 suspend paths - the mutex was being
acquired inside functions that were already called with mutex held
- Added mt76 core fix for list corruption in mt76_wcid_cleanup (patch 20)
that caused crashes during suspend/resume cycles
- Added fix for BA session teardown during beacon loss (patch 21) which
was causing mac80211 WARN in __ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_session - reported
by Sean Wang
The mt7921 mutex fixes (patches 18-19) correct improper mutex nesting
where mt7921_roc_abort_sync() and mt7921_set_runtime_pm() were acquiring
the mutex internally, but were called from paths that already held it
(e.g., mt7921_mac_sta_remove via mt76_sta_remove, suspend handlers).
The list corruption fix (patch 20) addresses a bug where mt76_wcid_cleanup()
wasn't removing wcid entries from sta_poll_list before mt76_reset_device()
reinitialized the master list, leaving stale pointers.
The BA session fix (patch 21) makes the ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_cb_irqsafe()
callback unconditional in IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_STOP_CONT handling - the MCU
command may fail during beacon loss but mac80211 must still be notified
to complete the session teardown.
More notes in https://github.com/zbowling/mt7925
Tested on MT7925 (RZ616) with kernel 6.18.5.
