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.

2010-01-18mac80211: fix sign error in pid controllerBob Copeland
While testing the pid rate controller in mac80211_hwsim, I noticed that once the controller reached 54 Mbit rates, it would fail to lower the rate when necessary. The debug log shows: 1945 186786 pf_sample 50 3534 3577 50 My interpretation is that the fixed point scaling of the target error value (pf) is incorrect: the error value of 50 compared to a target of 14 case should result in a scaling value of (14-50) = -36 * 256 or -9216, but instead it is (14 * 256)-50, or 3534. Correct this by doing fixed point scaling after subtraction.

2010-01-18iwlwifi: Fix throughput stall issue in HT mode for 5000Wey-Yi Guy
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.

2010-01-15ath9k: cleanup slot time and ack/cts timeout handlingFelix Fietkau
Previously ath9k left the initialization of slot timing and ACK/CTS timeout to the mode specific initvals. This does not handle short vs long slot in 2.4 GHz and uses a rather strange value for the 2.4 GHz ACK timeout (64 usec). This patch uses the proper ath9k_hw functions for setting slot time and timeouts and also implements the switch between short and long slot time in 2.4 GHz Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

2010-01-15mac80211: force use_short_slot=true for 5GHzFelix Fietkau
Normally 5GHz does not have a concept of long vs short slot time, however the slot time that it ends up using is the same as for 2.4 GHZ and use_short_slot == true Because of that, it makes more sense to force use_short_slot = true whenever 5 GHz is being used, so that this particular check does not have to be in every single driver that uses this flag.

2010-01-15cfg80211: make regulatory_hint_11d() band specificLuis R. Rodriguez
In practice APs do not send country IE channel triplets for channels the AP is not operating on and if they were to do so they would have to use the regulatory extension which we currently do not process. No AP has been seen in practice that does this though so just drop those country IEs. Additionally it has been noted the first series of country IE channels triplets are specific to the band the AP sends. Propagate the band on which the country IE was found on reject the country IE then if the triplets are ever oustide of the band. Although we now won't process country IE information with multiple band information we leave the intersection work as is as it is technically possible for someone to want to eventually process these type of country IEs with regulatory extensions.

When ieee80211_offchannel_return is called, it needs to re-enabled TX queues that have been stopped in ieee80211_offchannel_stop_beaconing or ieee80211_offchannel_stop_station. It happens if we are doing a scan with an IBSS interface. In this case, the interface stopped transmitting. Signed-off-by: Benoit Papillault <benoit.papillault@free.fr> Signed-off-by: John W.

ieee80211_set_power_mgmt is meant for STA interfaces only. Moreover, since sdata->u.mgd.mtx is only initialized for STA interfaces, using this code for any other type of interface (like creating a monitor interface) will result in a oops.
