2013-08-01iwl4965: better skb management in rx pathStanislaw Gruszka
4965 version of Eric patch "iwl3945: better skb management in rx path". It fixes several problems : 1) skb->truesize is underestimated. We really consume PAGE_SIZE bytes for a fragment, not the frame length. 2) 128 bytes of initial headroom is a bit low and forces reallocations. 3) We can avoid consuming a full page for small enough frames.

Steinar reported reallocations of skb->head with IPv6, leading to a warning in skb_try_coalesce() It turns out iwl3945 has several problems : 1) skb->truesize is underestimated. We really consume PAGE_SIZE bytes for a fragment, not the frame length. 2) 128 bytes of initial headroom is a bit low and forces reallocations. 3) We can avoid consuming a full page for small enough frames.

Conflicts: drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/Kconfig drivers/net/xen-netback/netback.c net/batman-adv/bat_iv_ogm.c net/wireless/nl80211.c The ath9k Kconfig conflict was a change of a Kconfig option name right next to the deletion of another option. The xen-netback conflict was overlapping changes involving the handling of the notify list in xen_netbk_rx_action(). Batman conflict resolution provided by Antonio Quartulli, basically keep everything in both conflict hunks. The nl80211 conflict is a little more involved. In 'net' we added a dynamic memory allocation to nl80211_dump_wiphy() to fix a race that Linus reported. Meanwhile in 'net-next' the handlers were converted to use pre and post doit handlers which use a flag to determine whether to hold the RTNL mutex around the operation. However, the dump handlers to not use this logic. Instead they have to explicitly do the locking. There were apparent bugs in the conversion of nl80211_dump_wiphy() in that we were not dropping the RTNL mutex in all the return paths, and it seems we very much should be doing so. So I fixed that whilst handling the overlapping changes. To simplify the initial returns, I take the RTNL mutex after we try to allocate 'tb'. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2013-05-08iwl4965: workaround connection regression on passive channelStanislaw Gruszka
Jake reported that since commit 1672c0e31917f49d31d30d79067103432bc20cc7 "mac80211: start auth/assoc timeout on frame status", he is unable to connect to his AP, which is configured to use passive channel. After switch to passive channel 4965 firmware drops any TX packet until it receives beacon. Before commit 1672c0e3 we waited on channel and retransmit packet after 200ms, that makes we receive beacon on the meantime and association process succeed. New mac80211 behaviour cause that any ASSOC frame fail immediately on iwl4965 and we can not associate. This patch restore old mac80211 behaviour for iwl4965, by removing IEEE80211_HW_REPORTS_TX_ACK_STATUS feature. This feature will be added again to iwl4965 driver, when different, more complex workaround for this firmware issue, will be added to the driver.

2013-04-16mac80211: support secondary channel offset in CSAJohannes Berg
Add support for the secondary channel offset IE in channel switch announcements. This is necessary for proper handling of CSA on HT access points. For this to work it is also necessary to convert everything here to use chandef structs instead of just channels. The driver updates aren't really correct though. In particular, the TI wl18xx driver update can't possibly be right since it just ignores the new channel width for lack of firmware API. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2013-01-31mac80211: inform the driver about update of dtim_periodEmmanuel Grumbach
Currently, when the driver requires the DTIM period, mac80211 will wait to hear a beacon before association. This behavior is suboptimal since some drivers may be able to deal with knowing the DTIM period after the association, if they get it at all. To address this, notify the drivers with bss_info_changed with the new BSS_CHANGED_DTIM_PERIOD flag when the DTIM becomes known. This might be when changing to associated, or later when the entire association was done with only probe response information. Rename the hardware flag for the current behaviour to IEEE80211_HW_NEED_DTIM_BEFORE_ASSOC to more accurately reflect its behaviour. IEEE80211_HW_NEED_DTIM_PERIOD is no longer accurate as all drivers get the DTIM period now, just not before association.
