wifi: b43: Disable QoS for bcm4331
[ Upstream commit 09795bded2e725443fe4a4803cae2079cdaf7b26 ] bcm4331 seems to not function correctly with QoS support. This may be due to issues with currently available firmware or potentially a device specific issue. When queues that are not of the default "best effort" priority are selected, traffic appears to not transmit out of the hardware while no errors are returned. This behavior is present among all the other priority queues: video, voice, and background. While this can be worked around by setting a kernel parameter, the default behavior is problematic for most users and may be difficult to debug. This patch offers a working out-of-box experience for bcm4331 users. Log of the issue (using ssh low-priority traffic as an example): ssh -T -vvvv git@github.com OpenSSH_9.6p1, OpenSSL 3.0.12 24 Oct 2023 debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config debug2: checking match for 'host * exec "/nix/store/q1c2flcykgr4wwg5a6h450hxbk4ch589-bash-5.2-p15/bin/bash -c '/nix/store/c015armnkhr6v18za0rypm7sh1i8js8w-gnupg-2.4.1/bin/gpg-connect-agent --quiet updatestartuptty /bye >/dev/null 2>&1'"' host github.com originally github.com debug3: /etc/ssh/ssh_config line 5: matched 'host "github.com"' debug1: Executing command: '/nix/store/q1c2flcykgr4wwg5a6h450hxbk4ch589-bash-5.2-p15/bin/bash -c '/nix/store/c015armnkhr6v18za0rypm7sh1i8js8w-gnupg-2.4.1/bin/gpg-connect-agent --quiet updatestartuptty /bye >/dev/null 2>&1'' debug3: command returned status 0 debug3: /etc/ssh/ssh_config line 5: matched 'exec "/nix/store/q1c2flcykgr4wwg5a6h450hxbk4ch589-bash-5.2-p15/bin/bash -c '/nix/store/c015armnkhr6v18za0r"' debug2: match found debug1: /etc/ssh/ssh_config line 9: Applying options for * debug3: expanded UserKnownHostsFile '~/.ssh/known_hosts' -> '/home/binary-eater/.ssh/known_hosts' debug3: expanded UserKnownHostsFile '~/.ssh/known_hosts2' -> '/home/binary-eater/.ssh/known_hosts2' debug2: resolving "github.com" port 22 debug3: resolve_host: lookup github.com:22 debug3: channel_clear_timeouts: clearing debug3: ssh_connect_direct: entering debug1: Connecting to github.com [192.30.255.113] port 22. debug3: set_sock_tos: set socket 3 IP_TOS 0x48 Fixes: e6f5b934fba8 ("b43: Add QOS support") Signed-off-by: Rahul Rameshbabu <sergeantsagara@protonmail.com> Reviewed-by: Julian Calaby <julian.calaby@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@kernel.org> Link: https://msgid.link/20231231050300.122806-5-sergeantsagara@protonmail.com Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
