2011-04-19ath9k: fix the return value of ath_stoprecvFelix Fietkau
The patch 'ath9k_hw: fix stopping rx DMA during resets' added code to detect a condition where rx DMA was stopped, but the MAC failed to enter the idle state. This condition requires a hardware reset, however the return value of ath_stoprecv was 'true' in that case, which allowed it to skip the reset when issuing a fast channel change.

2011-04-12ath9k_hw: fix stopping rx DMA during resetsFelix Fietkau
During PHY errors, the MAC can sometimes fail to enter an idle state on older hardware (before AR9380) after an rx stop has been requested. This typically shows up in the kernel log with messages like these: ath: Could not stop RX, we could be confusing the DMA engine when we start RX up ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: at drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/recv.c:504 ath_stoprecv+0xcc/0xf0 [ath9k]() Call Trace: [<8023f0e8>] dump_stack+0x8/0x34 [<80075050>] warn_slowpath_common+0x78/0xa4 [<80075094>] warn_slowpath_null+0x18/0x24 [<80d66d60>] ath_stoprecv+0xcc/0xf0 [ath9k] [<80d642cc>] ath_set_channel+0xbc/0x270 [ath9k] [<80d65254>] ath_radio_disable+0x4a4/0x7fc [ath9k] When this happens, the state that the MAC enters is easy to identify and does not result in bogus DMA traffic, however to ensure a working state after a channel change, the hardware should still be reset. This patch adds detection for this specific MAC state, after which the above warnings completely disappear in my tests.

2011-04-08p54: Initialize extra_len in p54_tx_80211Jason Conti
This patch fixes a very serious off-by-one bug in the driver, which could leave the device in an unresponsive state. The problem was that the extra_len variable [used to reserve extra scratch buffer space for the firmware] was left uninitialized. Because p54_assign_address later needs the value to reserve additional space, the resulting frame could be to big for the small device's memory window and everything would immediately come to a grinding halt.

2011-04-01usbnet: use eth%d name for known ethernet devicesArnd Bergmann
The documentation for the USB ethernet devices suggests that only some devices are supposed to use usb0 as the network interface name instead of eth0. The logic used there, and documented in Kconfig for CDC is that eth0 will be used when the mac address is a globally assigned one, but usb0 is used for the locally managed range that is typically used on point-to-point links. Unfortunately, this has caused a lot of pain on the smsc95xx device that is used on the popular pandaboard without an EEPROM to store the MAC address, which causes the driver to call random_ether_address(). Obviously, there should be a proper MAC addressed assigned to the device, and discussions are ongoing about how to solve this, but this patch at least makes sure that the default interface naming gets a little saner and matches what the user can expect based on the documentation, including for new devices. The approach taken here is to flag whether a device might be a point-to-point link with the new FLAG_POINTTOPOINT setting in the usbnet driver_info. A driver can set both FLAG_POINTTOPOINT and FLAG_ETHER if it is not sure (e.g. cdc_ether), or just one of the two. The usbnet framework only looks at the MAC address for device naming if both flags are set, otherwise it trusts the flag.

Commits 01a16b21 (netlink: kill eff_cap from struct netlink_skb_parms) and c53fa1ed (netlink: kill loginuid/sessionid/sid members from struct netlink_skb_parms) removed some members from struct netlink_skb_parms that depend on the current context, all netlink users are now required to do synchronous message processing. connector however queues received messages and processes them in a work queue, which is not valid anymore. This patch converts connector to do synchronous message processing by invoking the registered callback handler directly from the netlink receive function. In order to avoid invoking the callback with connector locks held, a reference count is added to struct cn_callback_entry, the reference is taken when finding a matching callback entry on the device's queue_list and released after the callback handler has been invoked.

The descriptors look fine but both ports actually are some sort of multiplexers requiring non- standard headers added/removed from every packet or they get ignored. All information is based on a usb traffic log from a Windows machine. On the Verizon 4G network I've seen speeds up to 1.1MB/s so far with this driver, a speed-o-meter site reports 16.2Mbps/10.5Mbps.

2011-03-29iwl3945: disable hw scan by defaultStanislaw Gruszka
After new NetworkManager 0.8.996 changes, hardware scanning is causing microcode errors as reported here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=683571 and sometimes kernel crashes: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=688252 Also with hw scan there are very bad performance on some systems as reported here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=671366 Since Intel no longer supports 3945, there is no chance to get proper firmware fixes, we need workaround problems by disable hardware scanning by default.
