[PATCH 1/3] brcmfmac: add a timer to read console periodically in PCIE bus

[Ian Lin]

From: Wright Feng <wright.feng@cypress.com>

Currently, host only reads console buffer when receiving mailbox data or
hit crash with PCIE bus. Therefore, we add timer in PCIE code to read
console buffer periodically to help developer and user check firmware
message when there is no data transmission between host and dongle.

[PATCH 2/3] brcmfmac: return error when getting invalid max_flowrings from dongle

[Ian Lin]

From: Wright Feng <wright.feng@cypress.com>

When firmware hit trap at initialization, host will read abnormal
max_flowrings number from dongle, and it will cause kernel panic when
doing iowrite to initialize dongle ring.
To detect this error at early stage, we directly return error when getting
invalid max_flowrings(>256).

I was wondering where that DEBUG is defined and found that it's done in
the Makefile:

subdir-ccflags-$(CONFIG_BRCMDBG)	+= -DDEBUG

I think that DEBUG define should be removed and instead CONFIG_BRCMDBG
should be used all over the brcmfmac and brcmsmac code. A cleanup patch
doing this is very welcome.

This would be a good task for someone new to kernel development, is
there a way to report these kind of simple tasks?

These patches are already applied, but wanted to respond still. I know 
the proprietary driver does use a timer, but it was a design decision to 
drop that. It adds overhead and complexity which is not resulting in 
more information about the firmware. Maybe I am missing the exact 
scenarios in which this would be useful. Also description above says it 
would help the user, but I very much doubt that. Not much users are 
fiddling with debugfs and if they are we can call them developers ;-)

Arend

This limit is a bit of a magic value. I do know there are chipsets that 
support more that 256 flowrings so this is a hard limitation. I should 
really get the multi-vendor support in place so we can have the 
limitation only for Infineon/Cypress chips. I will try to revive that 
thread.

Re: [PATCH 2/3] brcmfmac: return error when getting invalid max_flowrings from dongle

[chainofflowers]

Hi! This patch:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220929031001.9962-3-ian.lin@infineon.com/

causes my Asus PCE-AC88 (1043:86fb) to stop working, because when modprobe 
loads brcmfmac it throws this error:
---
[ 2740.647600] brcmfmac 0000:0d:00.0: brcmf_pcie_init_ringbuffers: invalid 
max_flowrings(264).
---

This is also being reported on reddit:
https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/104pqv9/
no_wifi_since_kernel_update_yesterday/

(also, see https://forum.manjaro.org/t/brcmfmac-fails-to-load/131128)

I think that the check on value > 256 is used as a kind of red herring to 
indirectly spot an inconsistent properties report from the PCI bus (?) about 
the network card.
Before that patch, the driver was correctly working for me and I could not 
observe any kernel panic. Maybe, at least in my case, the wrong value was 
still reported but could be safely ignored, as at a later point in time, when 
the card is initialised, everything worked fine.

I am now stuck at kernel 6.1.1, if I upgrade I cannot use the card.
Is there anything I can do to circumvent this issue? May I help somehow with 
debugging & testing? Please let me know...

Thanks,

The firmware loaded into the wifi device requests the host for 264 
flowrings. This was apparently not expected to be a valid value, but 
your device shows it is.

6.2 is not formally released so I suppose you are an early adopter and 
aware of the risk that implies ;-) There is no real debugging needed. I 
will figure out what a sensible value would be and come up with a patch. 
If you can test that that would be great. Will let you know.

I am on 6.1. Version 6.1.1 works, 6.1.3 does not.
Will this patch be provided with 6.1.4? Or shall I wait until 6.2.0?

Sure! :)
