2010-01-25ath9k: fix eeprom INI values override for 2GHz-only cardsFelix Fietkau
Among other changes, this commit: commit 06d0f0663e11cab4ec5f2c143a118d71a12fbbe9 Author: Sujith <Sujith.Manoharan@atheros.com> Date: Thu Feb 12 10:06:45 2009 +0530 ath9k: Enable Fractional N mode changed the hw attach code to fix up initialization values only for dual band devices, however the commit message did not give a reason as to why this would be useful or necessary. According to tests by Jorge Boncompte, this breaks at least some 2GHz-only cards, so the code should be changed back to the unconditional INI fixup.

2010-01-19ath9k: fix beacon slot/buffer leakFelix Fietkau
When cleaning up beacon buffers and slots, ath9k currently checks if sc->ah->opmode is set to a beacon related mode before cleaning up buffers. An unfortunate ordering of interface up/down commands can lead to sc->ah->opmode being set to monitor mode, while there are AP interfaces present on the same wiphy. Always cleaning up beacon buffers if present fixes this issue. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2010-01-18p54pci: rx frame length checkChristian Lamparter
A long time ago, a user reported several crashes due to data corruptions which are likely the result of a not-100%-supported, or faulty? PCI bridge. ( http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/53004/ ) This patch fixes entry #1. "1. p54p_check_rx_ring - skb_over_panic: Under a ping flood or just left running for a bit would panic with a skb_over_panic." As described in the mail: The invalid frame length causes skb_put to bailout and trigger a crash. Note: Simply dropping the frame is problematic, because if its content contains a tx feedback we would lose some portion of the device memory space.... And the driver/mac80211 should handle all other invalid data. Reported-by: Quintin Pitts <geek4linux@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

Similar to 6000 and 1000 series, RTS/CTS is the recommended protection mechanism for 5000 series in HT mode based on the HW design. Using RTS/CTS will better protect the inner exchange from interference, especially in highly-congested environment, it also prevent uCode encounter TX FIFO underrun and other HT mode related performance issues.

2010-01-11iwlwifi: silence buffer overflow warningDan Carpenter
Smatch (and presumably other static checkers) complain that MAX_TID_COUNT is past the end of the array. In the resulting discussion, Zhu Yi pointed out that this value is not used in real life and the assignment was only there to silence a gcc warning. If there were a bug in the surrounding code and the value were used, the WARN_ON(!qc) would print a warning before the crash.

2010-01-08iwlwifi: disable tx on beacon update notificationAbhijeet Kolekar
On beacon change update notification from mac we are not disabling the tx in adhoc mode. Mac sends BSS_CHANGED_BEACON_ENABLED when station leaves IBSS. Driver should indicate uCode to not to send anything on receiving this notification. Functionality to indicate uCode is duplicated across two notifications so created a common function called iwl_set_no_assoc.

2010-01-08iwlwifi: fix iwl_queue_used bug when read_ptr == write_ptrZhu Yi
When txq read_ptr equals to write_ptr, iwl_queue_used should always return false. Because there is no used TFD in this case. This is a complementary fix to the fix already included in commit "iwl3945: fix panic in iwl3945 driver". Both fixes are needed to address the panic below.

Current rt2x00 drivers may result in a "ieee80211_tx_status: headroom too small" error message when a frame needs to be properly aligned before transmitting it. This is because the space needed to ensure proper alignment isn't requested from mac80211. Fix this by adding sufficient amount of alignment space to the amount of headroom requested for TX frames.

2010-01-04ath5k: Fix eeprom checksum check for custom sized eepromsLuis R. Rodriguez
Commit 8bf3d79bc401ca417ccf9fc076d3295d1a71dbf5 enabled EEPROM checksum checks to avoid bogus bug reports but failed to address updating the code to consider devices with custom EEPROM sizes. Devices with custom sized EEPROMs have the upper limit size stuffed in the EEPROM. Use this as the upper limit instead of the static default size. In case of a checksum error also provide back the max size and whether or not this was the default size or a custom one. If the EEPROM is busted we add a failsafe check to ensure we don't loop forever or try to read bogus areas of hardware.

2009-12-28ath5k: fix SWI calibration interrupt stormBob Copeland
The calibration period is now invoked by triggering a software interrupt from within the ISR by ath5k_hw_calibration_poll() instead of via a timer. However, the calibration interval isn't initialized before interrupts are enabled, so we can have a situation where an interrupt occurs before the interval is assigned, so the interval is actually negative. As a result, the ISR will arm a software interrupt to schedule the tasklet, and then rearm it when the SWI is processed, and so on, leading to a softlockup at modprobe time. Move the initialization order around so the calibration interval is set before interrupts are active. Another possible fix is to schedule the tasklet directly from the poll routine, but I think there are additional plans for the SWI.

2009-12-22kfifo: move struct kfifo in placeStefani Seibold
This is a new generic kernel FIFO implementation. The current kernel fifo API is not very widely used, because it has to many constrains. Only 17 files in the current 2.6.31-rc5 used it. FIFO's are like list's a very basic thing and a kfifo API which handles the most use case would save a lot of development time and memory resources. I think this are the reasons why kfifo is not in use: - The API is to simple, important functions are missing - A fifo can be only allocated dynamically - There is a requirement of a spinlock whether you need it or not - There is no support for data records inside a fifo So I decided to extend the kfifo in a more generic way without blowing up the API to much. The new API has the following benefits: - Generic usage: For kernel internal use and/or device driver. - Provide an API for the most use case. - Slim API: The whole API provides 25 functions. - Linux style habit. - DECLARE_KFIFO, DEFINE_KFIFO and INIT_KFIFO Macros - Direct copy_to_user from the fifo and copy_from_user into the fifo. - The kfifo itself is an in place member of the using data structure, this save an indirection access and does not waste the kernel allocator. - Lockless access: if only one reader and one writer is active on the fifo, which is the common use case, no additional locking is necessary. - Remove spinlock - give the user the freedom of choice what kind of locking to use if one is required. - Ability to handle records. Three type of records are supported: - Variable length records between 0-255 bytes, with a record size field of 1 bytes. - Variable length records between 0-65535 bytes, with a record size field of 2 bytes. - Fixed size records, which no record size field. - Preserve memory resource. - Performance! - Easy to use! This patch: Since most users want to have the kfifo as part of another object, reorganize the code to allow including struct kfifo in another data structure. This requires changing the kfifo_alloc and kfifo_init prototypes so that we pass an existing kfifo pointer into them. This patch changes the implementation and all existing users.
