Subject: [PATCH 5.15.y,6.1.y,6.6.y] wifi: iwlwifi: mvm: fix 6 GHz scan construction
Date: Tue, 5 Nov 2024 17:26:36 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241105162640.71994-2-johannes@sipsolutions.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2024110521-antler-uneatable-d873@gregkh>
From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
Upstream commit 7245012f0f496162dd95d888ed2ceb5a35170f1a.
If more than 255 colocated APs exist for the set of all
APs found during 2.4/5 GHz scanning, then the 6 GHz scan
construction will loop forever since the loop variable
has type u8, which can never reach the number found when
that's bigger than 255, and is stored in a u32 variable.
Also move it into the loops to have a smaller scope.
Using a u32 there is fine, we limit the number of APs in
the scan list and each has a limit on the number of RNR
entries due to the frame size. With a limit of 1000 scan
results, a frame size upper bound of 4096 (really it's
more like ~2300) and a TBTT entry size of at least 11,
we get an upper bound for the number of ~372k, well in
the bounds of a u32.
