There are several occasions where a negative cid value is passed into wil_cid_valid and this is converted into a u8 causing the range check of cid >= 0 to always succeed. Fix this by making the cid argument an int to handle any -ve error value of cid. An example of this behaviour is in wil_cfg80211_dump_station, where cid is assigned -ENOENT if the call to wil_find_cid_by_idx fails, and this -ve value is passed to wil_cid_valid. I believe that the conversion of -ENOENT to the u8 value 254 which is greater than wil->max_assoc_sta causes wil_find_cid_by_idx to currently work fine, but I think is by luck and not the intended behaviour.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
