| * ath9: Fix ath_rx_flush_tid() for IRQs disabled kernel warning message.Senthil Balasubramanian2008-09-021-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch addresses an issue with the locking order. ath_rx_flush_tid() uses spin_lock/unlock_bh when IRQs are disabled in sta_notify by mac80211. As node clean up is still pending with ath9k and this problematic portion of the code is expected to change anyway, thinking of a proper fix may not be worthwhile. So having this interim fix helps the users to get rid of the kernel warning message. Pasted the kernel warning message for reference. kernel: ath0: No ProbeResp from current AP 00:1b:11:60:7a:3d - assume out of range kernel: ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel: WARNING: at kernel/softirq.c:136 local_bh_enable+0x3c/0xab() kernel: Pid: 1029, comm: ath9k Not tainted 2.6.27-rc4-wt-w1fi-wl kernel: kernel: Call Trace: kernel: [<ffffffff802278d8>] warn_on_slowpath+0x51/0x77 kernel: [<ffffffff80224c51>] check_preempt_wakeup+0xf3/0x123 kernel: [<ffffffff80239658>] autoremove_wake_function+0x9/0x2e kernel: [<ffffffff8022c281>] local_bh_enable+0x3c/0xab kernel: [<ffffffffa01ab75a>] ath_rx_node_cleanup+0x38/0x6e [ath9k] kernel: [<ffffffffa01b2280>] ath_node_detach+0x3b/0xb6 [ath9k] kernel: [<ffffffffa01ab09f>] ath9k_sta_notify+0x12b/0x165 [ath9k] kernel: [<ffffffff802366cf>] queue_work+0x1d/0x49 kernel: [<ffffffffa018c3fc>] add_todo+0x70/0x99 [mac80211] kernel: [<ffffffffa017de76>] __sta_info_unlink+0x16b/0x19e [mac80211] kernel: [<ffffffffa017e6ed>] sta_info_unlink+0x18/0x43 [mac80211] kernel: [<ffffffffa0182732>] ieee80211_associated+0xaa/0x16d [mac80211] kernel: [<ffffffffa0184a1a>] ieee80211_sta_work+0x4fb/0x6b4 [mac80211] kernel: [<ffffffff80469c58>] thread_return+0x30/0xa9 kernel: [<ffffffffa018451f>] ieee80211_sta_work+0x0/0x6b4 [mac80211] kernel: [<ffffffff802362c2>] run_workqueue+0xb1/0x17a kernel: [<ffffffff80236be9>] worker_thread+0xd0/0xdb kernel: [<ffffffff8023964f>] autoremove_wake_function+0x0/0x2e kernel: [<ffffffff80236b19>] worker_thread+0x0/0xdb kernel: [<ffffffff8023954a>] kthread+0x47/0x75 kernel: [<ffffffff80223121>] schedule_tail+0x18/0x50 kernel: [<ffffffff8020bc49>] child_rip+0xa/0x11 kernel: [<ffffffff80239503>] kthread+0x0/0x75 kernel: [<ffffffff8020bc3f>] child_rip+0x0/0x11 kernel: kernel: ---[ end trace e9bb5da661055827 ]--- Signed-off-by: Senthil Balasubramanian <senthilkumar@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

| * ath9k: Incorrect key used when group and pairwise ciphers are different.Senthil Balasubramanian2008-09-022-6/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Updating sc_keytype multiple times when groupwise and pairwise ciphers are different results in incorrect pairwise key type assumed for TX control and normal ping fails. This works fine for cases where both groupwise and pairwise ciphers are same. Also use mac80211 provided enums for key length calculation.

| * orinoco: Multicast to the specified addressesDavid Kilroy2008-09-021-3/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When multicasting the driver sets the number of group addresses using the count from the previous set multicast command. In general this means you have to set the multicast addresses twice to get the behaviour you want. If we were multicasting, and reduce the number of addresses we are multicasting to, then the driver would write uninitialised data from the stack into the group addresses to multicast to. Only write the multicast addresses we have specifically set. Signed-off-by: David Kilroy <kilroyd@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (Only important for USB V1 Adaptors) If an incoming frame wasn't accepted by p54_rx function the skb will be reused for new frames... But, we must not forget to set the skb's data pointers into the same state in which it was initialized by p54u_init_urbs. Otherwise we either end up with 16 bytes less on every requeue, or if a new frame is worthy enough to be accepted, the data is in the wrong place (urb->transfer_buffer wasn't updated!) and mac80211 has a hard time to recognize it...

AFAIK, no such hardware exists for the p54, thus it must be done in software. With this patch, a connection qith p54usb is stable, whereas the interface went off-line in 2-3 hours without this change. Note that this code will have to be reworked for proper sequence numbers on beacons. In addition, the sequence number has been placed in the hardware state, not the vif state.

* [netdrvr] Drivers should not set IFF_* flag themselvesWang Chen2008-08-073-16/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some hardware set promisc when they are requested to set IFF_ALLMULTI flag. It's ok, but if drivers set IFF_PROMISC flag when they set promisc, it will broken upper layer handle for promisc and allmulti. In addition, drivers can use their own hardware programming to make it. So do not allow drivers to set IFF_* flags. This is a general driver fix, so I didn't split it to pieces and send to specific driver maintainers.

| | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes unhandled interrupt when HW rfkill is on during devices start up. The behavior changes, now open is successful even when rfkill is on. This is to align with the situation when rfkill is set on after opening. Signed-off-by: Tomas Winkler <tomas.winkler@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch optimizes memory allocation. The cmd member of iwl_tx_queue was allocated previously as a continuous block of memory. This patch allocates separate memory chunks for each command and maps/unmaps these chunks in the run time.
