9c5f89b3f6 ath9k: Do not remove header padding on RX from short frames
The 802.11 header is only padded to 32-bit boundary when the frame has
a non-zero length payload. In other words, control frames (e.g., ACK)
do not have a padding and we should not try to remove it. This fixes
monitor mode for short control frames. In addition, the hdrlen&3 use
is described in more detail to make it easier to understand how the
padding length is calculated.

b7a530d82c mac80211: Disable requests for new scans in AP mode
AP mode operations are seriously affected if mac80211 runs through a
multi-second scan while the AP is trying to send Beacon frames on the
operation channel. While this could be implemented in a way that does
not cause too many problems, it is not very simple and will require
synchronization with Beacon frame scheduling in the drivers (scan one
channel at a time between Beacon frames). Furthermore, such scanning
takes quite a bit longer time and existing userspace applications
would be likely to timeout while waiting for the results.

For now, just refuse requests for new scans (SIOCSIWSCAN) when in AP
mode. In practice, this moves the rejection from iwl* drivers into
mac80211 to make it apply to every mac80211-based driver.

This issue shows up in associated stations getting disconnected when
something (e.g., Network Manager) requests a scan while the interface
is in AP mode. When doing this continuously (e.g., NM does it every 120
seconds), the network gets close to useless.

14a4dfe2ff ipw2200: fix scanning while associated
This patch fixes sporadic firmware restarts when scanning while associated.

The firmware will quietly cancel a scan (while associated) if the dwell time
for a channel to be scanned is larger than the time it may stay away from the
operating channel (because of DTIM catching). Unfortunately the driver is not
notified about the canceled scan and therefore the scan watchdog timeout will
be hit and the driver causes a firmware restart which results in
disassociation. This mainly happens on passive channels which use a dwell time
of 120 whereas a typical beacon interval is around 100.

The patch changes the dwell time for passive channels to be slightly smaller
than the actual beacon interval to work around the firmware issue. Furthermore
the number of allowed beacon misses is increased from one to three as otherwise
most scans (while associated) won't complete successfully.

However scanning while associated will still fail in corner cases such as a
beacon intervals below 30.

c1db52b9d2 rtl8187: Use usb anchor facilities to manage urbs
When SLUB debugging is enabled in the kernel, and the boot command includes
the option "slub_debug=P", rtl8187 encounters a GPF due to a read-after-free
of a urb.

Following the example of changes in p54usb to fix the same problem, the code
has been modified to use the usb_anchor_urb() method. With this change, the
USB core handles the freeing of urb's.

This patch fixes the problem reported in Kernel Bugzilla #12185
(http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12185).

dd397dc9dd p54usb: rewriting rx/tx routines to make use of usb_anchor's facilities
Alan Stern found several flaws in p54usb's implementation and annotated:
"usb_kill_urb() and similar routines do not expect an URB's completion
routine to deallocate it.  This is almost obvious -- if the URB is deallocated
before the completion routine returns then there's no way for usb_kill_urb
to detect when the URB actually is complete."

This patch addresses all known limitations in the old implementation and fixes
khub's "use-after-freed" hang, when SLUB debug's poisoning option is enabled.

a07d3619fa ath9k: BH shouldn't be enabled when hardirqs are disabled.
ath_tx_complete_buf uses a BH version of spinlock and so releasing
the lock enables BH which is incorrect when called from sta_notify
callback as MAC80211 disables hardirqs before the driver callback
is called.

As ath_tx_complete_buf is shared between user and softirq context
using normal spinlock may not be appropriate. Though the proper
fix would be to cleanup the context properly in the driver code,
this would be an interim fix to avoid kernel warning.

6b3aa6ab78 ath9k: Disable staggered Beacon frame scheduling
It looks like there are some issues in the current ath9k version as
far as staggered Beacon frame scheduling is concerned. This results in
Beacon frame timestamp being off by 25 milliseconds or so which can
cause issues with multicast power save buffering in AP mode. Some
client stations fail to receive multicast frames when there is this
large an offset between TBTT and actual Beacon transmission time.

Since ath9k does not yet support multiple BSSes anyway, the staggered
Beacon frame scheduling is just increasing the number of interrupts at
this point. The easiest fix for the timestamp offset is to disable
staggered Beacon frames for now. We need to redesign beacon.c anyway
when adding multi-BSS support with mac80211 since the existing code
depends on different mechanism for Beacon frame transmission.

f056658bb9 iwlwifi: fix time interval misuse in iwl_poll_{direct_}bit
The patch fixes the misuse of microsecond with millisecond in the
polling mechanism of the iwlwifi driver. The impact of this problem
is the unacceptable latency for the whole system (especially during

7262796ab7 iwl3945: Fix rate scale for B-mode connection
This patch make sure we use only CCK rate for B only network.
For 3945 driver, it sets REPLY_RATE_SCALE command every time
we connect to a new network. In this command we set for every
rate the number of try and next rate. The problem mac80211 reports
same mode for both B and G mode as IEEE80211_BAND_2GHZ which will cause
using invalid rate other than CCK in B only network. THis patch
on association will examine sta valid rate on association, if no
OFDM rate in valid available rates it considers it as B only mode so
we can set REPLY_RATE_SCALE command with valid B only network and only
choose CCK rate in rate scaling.

Implements the KS8695 ethernet device (ks8695net).

This driver is only of use on the KS8695 which is an ARM9 based SoC. The
documentation on this SoC is sparse and poor, with barely a register
description and a rough outline of how the ethernet works, this driver was
therefore written with strong reference to the Micrel supplied Linux 2.6.9
port, and to Andrew Victor's ks8695eth driver.

sungem interal pcs connected to a serdes chip. The seriallink case in

8c83f80b2d sungem: Make PCS PHY support partially work again.
As reported by Hermann Lauer, PCS PHY support in the sungem
driver simply doesn't work.

When the chip is reset due to open, or some other similar operation,
the PCS is reset too but we don't program it back into a running
state.  The result is no link when the device is brought up.

This partially rectifies the situation for the moment, by kicking
the PCS after a sungem chip reset so that it will renegotiate and
be re-enabled again.

The behavior is still a little bit dodgy as the added renegotiate
make the link take some time after bringing the interface up,
but this is a significant improvement in that things actually work
now :-)

Based almost entirely upon an initial patch by Hermann.

011a03300b iwl3945 : Fix a-band association for passive channels
Patch does following things
    1) This patch fixes the a-band association for passive channels with new
    uCode feature that it allows direct scan on passive channels after
    auto-switch from passive to active. This enables sending of direct probes
    on passive channels, as long as some traffic is detected on that channel.
    This improves the scanning for hidden SSIDs in A-band,which is all
    passive channels.

    This patch fixes the bug no 1748.

        http://www.intellinuxwireless.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1748

    2) This fix will only work with uCode version 15.28.2.8 and above.
    Prior versions of uCode would work only if we heard the traffic within
     active dwell time, which is much shorter than passive dwell time and
    is shorter than typical beacon periods. This patch also provids full
    active dwell time even if we hear traffic late in passive dwell.

    3) uCode API version is incremented to 2.

a0987a8d68 iwlwifi: rely on API version read from firmware
This adds the infrastructure to support older firmware APIs.
The API version number is stored as part of the filename, we first try to
load the most recent firmware and progressively try lower versions.
The API version is also read from the firmware self and stored as part
of the iwl_priv structure. Only firmware that is supported by driver will
be loaded. The version number read from firmware is compared
to supported versions in the driver not the API version used as part of
filename.

An example using this new infrastrucure:
   if (IWL_UCODE_API(priv->ucode_ver) >= 2) {
        Driver interacts with Firmware API version >= 2.
   } else {
        Driver interacts with Firmware API version 1.

Status: O

With the addition of TKIP (and soon CCMP), key->alg is a more useful
guide to key type than the key length.

This patch cleans up key type assignment in ath5k_hw_set_key by
extracting it into its own function.  It also replaces the separate
memcpy() calls for extracting key material into the hardware format
with a loop that works regardless of key size.

Finally, the patch removes support for WEP-128 since it is a
non-standard key length that mac80211 also doesn't use.

Under my 2.6.28-rc6 sparc64, when associating to an AP through my

  Kernel unaligned access at TPC[10129b68] zd_mac_rx+0x144/0x32c [zd1211rw]

For the zd1211rw module, on RX, the 80211 packet will be located after
the PLCP header in the skb data buffer. The PLCP header being 5 bytes
long, the 80211 header will start unaligned from an aligned skb
buffer.

As per Documentation/unaligned-memory-access.txt, we must replace the
not unaligned() safe compare_ether_addr() with memcmp() to protect
architectures that require alignment.

b8ddafd759 ipw2200: fix netif_*_queue() removal regression
In "ipw2200: Call netif_*_queue() interfaces properly", netif_stop_queue()
and netif_wake_queue() were removed with the reason
"netif_carrier_{on,off}() handles starting and stopping packet flow into
the driver". The patch also removes a valid condition check that
ipw_tx_skb() cannot be called if device is not in STATUS_ASSOCIATED state.
But netif_carrier_off() doesn't guarantee netdev->hard_start_xmit won't
be called because linkwatch event is handled in a delayed workqueue. This
caused a kernel oops reported by Frank Seidel:
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=397390

This patch fixes the problem by moving the STATUS_ASSOCIATED check back
to ipw_tx_skb(). It also adds a missing netif_carrier_off() call to
ipw_disassociate().

Since the keys are not removed properly on suspend by mac80211
this may result in exhausting key table on resume leading

This patch also fixes a memory corruption problem reported in

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12040.

When the key is removed a second time the offset is set to 255 - this
index is not valid for the ucode_key_table and corrupts the eeprom pointer
(which is 255 bits from ucode_key_table).

3e1d7cd2dc e1000: e1000_adapter->polling_netdev is useless
Commit bea3348eef
"[NET]: Make NAPI polling independent of struct net_device objects."
made NAPI polling to be independent of net_device.
So e1000_adapter->polling_netdev is no longer used.
Kill it.

e4e6c38cab jme: Remove 64 and 40 bit dma_mask
Although the hardware supports the 64bit DMA address in design,
but later found that it actually not working.
This patch reduced the rang to 32bit.

4f40bf4689 jme: GHC register control fix for new hardware
Due to the hardware design, except the first chip on the market,
other chips needs to setup the clock source for MAC processor
implicitly through Global Host Control Register(GHC).
(Strange design huh?)

10/100M uses the PCI-E as clock source, and 1G uses GPHY.

And I reordered the code a little, to make it easier to read.

5176da7e53 enc28j60: Fix sporadic packet loss (corrected again)
Packet data read from the RX buffer the when the RSV is at the end of the RX
buffer does not warp around. This causes packet loss, as the actual data is
never read. Fix this by calculating the right packet data location.

Thanks to Shachar Shemesh for suggesting the fix.

cb52deba12 forcedeth: power down phy when interface is down
Bring the physical link down when the interface is down by placing the PHY
in power-down state, unless WOL is enabled.  This mirrors the behavior of
other drivers including e1000 and tg3.

Without the patch, ifconfig down leaves the physical link up, which confuses
datacenter users who expect the link lights both on the NIC and the switch to
go out when they bring an interface down.

Furthermore, even though the phy is powered on, autonegotiation stops working,
so a normally gigabit link might suddenly become 100 Mbit half-duplex when the
interface goes down, and become gigabit when it comes up again.

Ayaz said:

  I would not include this patch until further testing is performed.  NVIDIA
  MCP chips use 3rd party PHY vendors.  By powering down the phy, it could
  have adverse affects on certain phys.

  I just ran across this patch.  Tested on a Marvell 88E1121R (GigE PHY)
  and works great.  This is a very important feature for me.

efba01803c bnx2: Add workaround to handle missed MSI.
The bnx2 chips do not support per MSI vector masking.  On 5706/5708, new MSI
address/data are stored only when the MSI enable bit is toggled.  As a result,
SMP affinity no longer works in the latest kernel.  A more serious problem is
that the driver will no longer receive interrupts when the MSI receiving CPU
goes offline.

The workaround in this patch only addresses the problem of CPU going offline.
When that happens, the driver's timer function will detect that it is making
no forward progress on pending interrupt events and will recover from it.

Eric Dumazet reported the problem.

We also found that if an interrupt is internally asserted while MSI and INTA
are disabled, the chip will end up in the same state after MSI is re-enabled.
The same workaround is needed for this problem.
