2006-03-23[PATCH] wireless/airo: cache wireless scansDan Williams
Observed problems when multiple processes request scans and subsequently scan results. This causes a scan result request to hit card registers before the scan is complete, returning an incomplete scan list and possibly making the card very angry. Instead, cache the results of a wireless scan and serve result requests from the cache, rather than hitting the hardware for them. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dcbw@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2006-03-23[PATCH] WE-20 for kernel 2.6.16Jean Tourrilhes
This is version 20 of the Wireless Extensions. This is the completion of the RtNetlink work I started early 2004, it enables the full Wireless Extension API over RtNetlink. Few comments on the patch : o totally driver transparent, no change in drivers needed. o iwevent were already RtNetlink based since they were created (around 2.5.7). This adds all the regular SET and GET requests over RtNetlink, using the exact same mechanism and data format as iwevents. o This is a Kconfig option, as currently most people have no need for it. Surprisingly, patch is actually small and well encapsulated. o Tested on SMP, attention as been paid to make it 64 bits clean. o Code do probably too many checks and could be further optimised, but better safe than sorry. o RtNetlink based version of the Wireless Tools available on my web page for people inclined to try out this stuff. I would also like to thank Alexey Kuznetsov for his helpful suggestions to make this patch better. Signed-off-by: Jean Tourrilhes <jt@hpl.hp.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2006-03-17[PATCH] ipw2200: switch to the new ipw2200-fw-3.0 image formatJames Ketrenos
This patch modifies the driver to support the ipw2200-fw-3.0 image format. The 3.0 fw image does not add any new capabilities, but as a result of image format changes, it should fix two problems experienced by users: 1) Race conditions with the request_firmware interface and udev/hotplug are improved as only a single request_firmware call is now required to load the firmware and microcode (vs. 3 separate calls previously) 2) The monitor mode firmware (sniffer) is now packaged with the correct boot image so it can now function without frequent restarts. Note: Once you apply this patch, you will also need to upgrade your firmware image to the 3.0 version available from: http://ipw2200.sf.net/firmware.php Signed-off-by: James Ketrenos <jketreno@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Zhu Yi <yi.zhu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2006-03-17[PATCH] ipw2200: Set a meaningful silence threshold valueCahill, Ben M
Set a meaningful silence threshold value (replacing our previous "0" default), which gets rid of the gratuitous "Link deterioration" notifications that we've been receiving from firmware. This notification feature tells the driver information to help it determine when to pre-emptively restart the firmware/ucode in anticipation of firmware errors! But since setting this new threshold, I haven't seen any such notifications. At least it keeps the logs a little less busy.

2006-03-17[PATCH] ipw2200: stop netdev queue if h/w doesn't have space for new packetsJames Ketrenos
The patch roll back the change we made to support for the ability to start/stop independent Tx queues within a single net device in order to support 802.11e QoS. We need to be able to indicate to the upper layers that packets of a given priority can not be sent any more without halting transmission of all packets, and without rescheduling high priority packets down to the next priority level. So we return NETDEV_TX_BUSY in this case and rely on the stack would take care of rescheduling... which it apparently does immediately and consumes the CPU. This caused the ksoftirqd kernel thread consuming almost all the CPU... To put the code back to the way it was before we made these changes we put the call netif_queue_stop back in ipw_tx_skb. This effectively disables multiple priority based transmit queues for 802.11e, but given that its broken anyway...

2006-03-17[PATCH] Remove duplicated code from ipw2200.cLarry Finger
As stated in a comment, the ipw2200 driver uses several routines that were borrowed from ieee80211_geo.c. As ipw2200 requires ieee80211, these routines are duplicated. The attached patch, which is sent as an attachment to preserve whitespace, converts ipw2200.c to use the ieee80211 versions, thereby reducing bloat in both the source and binary.

These messages end up polluting logs when things like NetworkManager or wpa_supplicant are controlling the driver.
