Subject: [PATCH v4 0/8] wifi: brcm80211: performance and stability fixes
Date: Fri, 31 Jul 2026 16:06:17 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260731160646.3812-1-chanelshivesh@gmail.com> (raw)
This series fixes several performance bottlenecks and correctness
issues in both brcmfmac (PCIe/SDIO) and brcmsmac drivers.
Changes since v3:
- cfg80211.c: Removed spurious double blank line flagged by
checkpatch --strict.
- All commit messages rewritten to follow kernel standards:
explain the problem symptom first, then the solution, add
Fixes: tags where applicable, wrap lines at 72 chars.
- pcie.c: Added Fixes: tag referencing the original PCIe commit.
Changes since v2:
- core.c: Add skb_cow_head() before skb_push() to prevent a
kernel panic when skb arrives with zero headroom.
- cfg80211.c: Fix PMKID V2 shadow counter corruption bug.
Changes since v1:
- Correct author and Signed-off-by to chanelshivesh@gmail.com.
Patch overview:
1/8 flowring: Replace O(N) blocked-ring scan with atomic counter.
2/8 sdio: Coalesce N+1 sdio_claim_host() pairs in rxglom path.
3/8 core: Fix skb_push() panic; populate radiotap RSSI field.
4/8 cfg80211: Implement PMKID_V2; fix shadow counter overwrite;
replace mdelay() with usleep_range().
5/8 msgbuf: Fix silent TX stall; increase NR_TX_PKTIDS to 4096.
6/8 pcie: Replace msleep() with usleep_range() + backoff.
7/8 fwsignal: Document safe no-op for duplicate MAC handle ADD.
8/8 brcmsmac/ampdu: Reference IEEE 802.11n TID requirement.
