[PATCH 5.10 113/575] rsi: fix rate mask set leading to P2P failure

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Nov 15 2021 - 14:27:59 EST


From: Martin Fuzzey <martin.fuzzey@flowbird.group>

commit b515d097053a71d624e0c5840b42cd4caa653941 upstream.

P2P client mode was only working the first time.
On subsequent connection attempts the group was successfully created but
no data was sent (no transmitted data packets were seen with a sniffer).

The reason for this was that the hardware was being configured in fixed
rate mode with rate RSI_RATE_1 (1Mbps) which is not valid in the 5GHz band.

In P2P mode wpa_supplicant uses NL80211_CMD_SET_TX_BITRATE_MASK to disallow
the 11b rates in the 2.4GHz band which updated common->fixedrate_mask.

rsi_set_min_rate() then used the fixedrate_mask to calculate the minimum
allowed rate, or 0xffff = auto if none was found.
However that calculation did not account for the different rate sets
allowed in the different bands leading to the error.

Fixing set_min_rate() would result in 6Mb/s being used all the time
which is not what we want either.

The reason the problem did not occur on the first connection is that
rsi_mac80211_set_rate_mask() only updated the fixedrate_mask for
the *current* band. When it was called that was still 2.4GHz as the
switch is done later. So the when set_min_rate() was subsequently
called after the switch to 5GHz it still had a mask of zero, leading
to defaulting to auto mode.

Fix this by differentiating the case of a single rate being
requested, in which case the hardware will be used in fixed rate
mode with just that rate, and multiple rates being requested,
in which case we remain in auto mode but the firmware rate selection
algorithm is configured with a restricted set of rates.
