2009-11-10iwlwifi: Use RTS/CTS as the preferred protection mechanism for 6000 seriesWey-Yi Guy
When 802.11g was introduced, we had RTS/CTS and CTS-to-Self protection mechanisms. In an HT Beacon, HT stations use the "Operating Mode" field in the HT Information Element to determine whether or not to use protection. The Operating Mode field has 4 possible settings: 0-3: Mode 0: If all stations in the BSS are 20/40 MHz HT capable, or if the BSS is 20/40 MHz capable, or if all stations in the BSS are 20 MHz HT stations in a 20 MHz BSS Mode 1: used if there are non-HT stations or APs using the primary or secondary channels Mode 2: if only HT stations are associated in the BSS and at least one 20 MHz HT station is associated. Mode 3: used if one or more non-HT stations are associated in the BSS. When in operating modes 1 or 3, and the Use_Protection field is 1 in the Beacon's ERP IE, all HT transmissions must be protected using RTS/CTS or CTS-to-Self. By default, CTS-to-self is the preferred protection mechanism for less overhead and higher throughput; but using the full RTS/CTS will better protect the inner exchange from interference, especially in highly-congested environment. For 6000 series WIFI NIC, RTS/CTS protection mechanism is the recommended choice for HT traffic based on the HW design.

2009-11-10ath5k: don't reset mcast filter when configuring the modeBob Copeland
We should not zero out the multicast hash when configuring the operating mode, since a zero value means all multicast frames will get dropped. Also, ath5k_mode_setup() gets called after any reset, so the hash already set up in configure_filter() is lost. Signed-off-by: Bob Copeland <me@bobcopeland.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2009-11-10b43: work around a locking issue in ->set_tim()Felix Fietkau
ops->set_tim() must be atomic, so b43 trying to acquire a mutex leads to a kernel crash. This patch trades an easy to trigger crash in AP mode for an unlikely race condition. According to Michael, the real fix would be to allow set_tim() to sleep, since b43 is not the only driver that needs to sleep in all callbacks.

2009-11-06net, compat_ioctl: handle socket ioctl abuses in tty driversArnd Bergmann
Slip and a few other drivers use the same ioctl numbers on tty devices that are normally meant for sockets. This causes problems with our compat_ioctl handling that tries to convert the data structures in a different format. Fortunately, these five drivers all use 32 bit compatible data structures in the ioctl numbers, so we can just add a trivial compat_ioctl conversion function to each of them. SIOCSIFENCAP and SIOCGIFENCAP do not need to live in fs/compat_ioctl.c after this any more, and they are not used on any sockets. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: David S.
