2009-11-09pcmcia: use dynamic debug infrastructure, deprecate CS_CHECK (wireless)Dominik Brodowski
Convert PCMCIA drivers to use the dynamic debug infrastructure, instead of requiring manual settings of PCMCIA_DEBUG. Also, remove all usages of the CS_CHECK macro and replace them with proper Linux style calling and return value checking. The extra error reporting may be dropped, as the PCMCIA core already complains about any (non-driver-author) errors.

2009-10-07iwlwifi: incorrect method used for finding valid OTP blocksJay Sternberg
The address stored in the next link address is a word address but when reading the OTP blocks, a byte address is used. Also if the blocks are full and the last link pointer is not zero, then none of the blocks are valid so return an error. The algorithm is simply valid blocks have a next address and that address's contents is zero. Using the wrong address for the next link address gets arbitrary data, obviously. In cases seen, the first block is considered valid when it is not. If the block has in fact been invalidated there may be old data or there may be no data, bad data, or partial data, there is no way of telling. Without this patch it is possible that a device with valid OTP data is unable to work.

This patch fixes a embarrassing bug which was introduced by: "[PATCH] ar9170: implement frequency calibration for one-stage/openfw" The phy_data variable initialization has to done outside the for-loop scope. This is because the for-loop uses u32 phy_data variable more like a 4-byte field. But in each run only a single byte is calculated. Therefore phy_data content needs to stay the same for at least 3 more iterations, before the complete set can be uploaded.

2009-09-28iwlwifi: fix 3945 ucode info retrieval after failureReinette Chatre
When hardware or uCode problem occurs driver captures significant information from device to enable debugging. The format of this information is different between 3945 and 4965 and later devices, yet currently the 3945 uses the 4965 and later format. Fix this by adding a new library call that is initialized to the correct formatting routine based on device. This moves the iwlagn event and error log handling back to iwl-agn.c to make it part of iwlagn module. Also remove the 3945 sysfs file that triggers dump of event log - there is already a debugfs file that can do it for all drivers.

2009-09-28iwlwifi: fix debugfs buffer handlingReinette Chatre
We keep track of where to write into a buffer by keeping a count of how much has been written so far. When writing to the buffer we thus take the buffer pointer and adding the count of what has been written so far. Keeping track of what has been written so far is done by incrementing this number every time something is written to the buffer with how much has been written at that time. Currently this number is incremented incorrectly when using the "hex_dump_to_buffer" call to add data to the buffer. Fix this by only adding what has been added to the buffer in that call instead of what has been added since beginning of buffer. Issue was discovered and discussed during testing of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=464598 .

2009-09-23iwlwifi: reduce noise when skb allocation failsReinette Chatre
Replenishment of receive buffers is done in the tasklet handling received frames as well as in a workqueue. When we are in the tasklet we cannot sleep and thus attempt atomic skb allocations. It is generally not a big problem if this fails since iwl_rx_allocate is always followed by a call to iwl_rx_queue_restock which will queue the work to replenish the buffers at a time when sleeping is allowed. We thus add the __GFP_NOWARN to the skb allocation in iwl_rx_allocate to reduce the noise if such an allocation fails while we still have enough buffers. We do maintain the warning and the error message when we are low on buffers to communicate to the user that there is a potential problem with memory availability on system This addresses issue reported upstream in thread "iwlagn: order 2 page allocation failures" in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.wireless.general/39187 Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Acked-by: Mel Gorman <mel@csn.ul.ie> Signed-off-by: John W.

2009-09-23iwlwifi: do not send sync command while holding spinlockReinette Chatre
commit 10c994ca70e8e94bbc85a5bf13de5911ee8de4d2 "iwlwifi: fix remove key error" fixed an error reported by mac80211 during interface down. The fix involved changing an async command to synchronous. Unfortunately this was inside a spinlock section in which we cannot sleep. Modify the sending of the command back to async. This causes the mac80211 error "mac80211-phy0: failed to remove key (0, ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff) from hardware (-16)." to return. This error is not serious since this occurs during interface down and the keys will be cleared anyway when ucode is unloaded. Having this error message is thus less serious than a potential deadlock introduced when sleeping while holding a spinlock. We will have to find another fix for that error. This is a revert of the abovementioned commit. Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2009-09-23ath9k: Disable autosleep feature by default.Vivek Natarajan
Autosleep needs to be disabled for AR9287 chipsets also. Since autosleep is not used for any of the currently supported chipsets, disable it by default and can be enabled if needed for any of the future chipsets.

2009-09-23ath9k: Fix regression in PA calibrationSujith
The commit "ath9k: Fix bugs in programming registers during PA CAL" removed a REG_READ of 0x7834. This resulted in incorrect computation of the subsequent value to be written in RF2G6. This patch fixes the regression by re-adding the REG_READ. Signed-off-by: Sujith <Sujith.Manoharan@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
