2006-07-27[PATCH] bcm43xx: improved statisticsLarry Finger
This minor patch for wireless-2.6 (softmac) adjusts the parameters of the wireless statistics to improve the display of programs such as the "Wireless Network Information" applet of KDE. Thanks to Dan Williams and Jean Tourrilhes for valuable help in setting up the return of info in dBm. Signed-Off-By: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

2006-07-27[PATCH] bcm43xx: init routine rewriteMichael Buesch
Rewrite of the bcm43xx initialization routines. This fixes several issues: * up-down-up-down-up... stale data issue (May fix some DHCP issues) * Fix the init vs IRQ handler race (and remove the workaround) * Fix init for cards with multiple cores (APHY) As softmac has no internal PHY handling (unlike dscape), this adds the file "phymode" to sysfs. The active PHY can be selected by writing either a, b or g to this file. Current PHY can be determined by reading from it. * Fix the controller restart code. Controller restart can now also be triggered through echo 1 > /debug/bcm43xx/ethX/restart Signed-off-by: Michael Buesch <mb@bu3sch.de> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2006-07-27[PATCH] bcm43xx: suspend MAC while executing long pworkMichael Buesch
Suspend MAC (and make MAC-suspend refcounting) when doing long periodic work. On long periodic work, we disable IRQs on the device, so we don't want the MAC to stay operating and probably miss packets due do non-delivery of interrupts.

2006-07-27[PATCH] ieee80211: Make ieee80211_rx_any usableDaniel Drake
ieee80211_rx_any is new to 2.6.18-rc1, even though it appears this function was never completed: http://lists.sipsolutions.net/pipermail/softmac-dev/2006-February/000103.html This patch changes ieee80211_rx_any to always claim the skb, which avoids further driver complexity and the possibility of leaking management frames. It also exports the function so that people can actually use it. Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org> Acked-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

2006-07-27[PATCH] softmac: ERP handling and driver-level notificationsDaniel Drake
This patch implements ERP handling in softmac so that the drivers can support protection and preambles properly. I added a new struct, ieee80211softmac_bss_info, which is used for BSS-dependent variables like these. A new hook has been added (bssinfo_change), which allows the drivers to be notified when anything in bssinfo changes. I modified the txrates_change API to match the bssinfo_change API. The existing one is a little messy and the usefulness of providing the old rates is questionable (and can be implemented at driver level if really necessary). No drivers are using this API (yet), so this should be safe. Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org> Acked-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

2006-07-27[PATCH] ieee80211: small ERP handling additionsDaniel Drake
This adds a flag to the ieee80211_network structure which indicates whether the stored erp_value is valid (a check against 0 is not enough, since an ERP of 0 is valid and very meaningful). I also added the ERP IE bit-definitions to ieee80211.h. This is needed by some upcoming softmac patches.

2006-07-27[PATCH] orinoco: fix setting transmit key onlyDan Williams
When determining whether there's a key to set or not, orinoco should be looking at the key length, not the key data. Otherwise confusion reigns when trying to set TX key only, passing in zero-length key, but non-NULL pointer. Key length takes precedence over non-NULL key data.

2006-07-27[PATCH] softmac: do shared key auth in workqueueDaniel Drake
Johann Uhrmann reported a bcm43xx crash and Michael Buesch tracked it down to a problem with the new shared key auth code (recursive calls into the driver) This patch (effectively Michael's patch with a couple of small modifications) solves the problem by sending the authentication challenge response frame from a workqueue entry. I also removed a lone \n from the bcm43xx messages relating to authentication mode - this small change was previously discussed but not patched in.

2006-07-26[PATCH] fix compile regression for a few scsi driversChristoph Hellwig
This fixes three drivers to compile again after my patch that removes the data_cmnd member from struct scsi_cmnd. The fas216 change is trivial, it should have been using ->cmnd all the time. NCR53C9 (which seem to be mostly duplicate driver with esp.c!) is doing something odd, it should only have looked at ->cmnd before not the saved copy that is kept for the error handlers sake. Note that it really should deal with the sync setting themselves but use the generic domain validation code that get this right - but that's for later let's push this simple compile fix for now. And sorry for the late fix for this, I have been busy with OLS and associated activities last week. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2006-07-26[PATCH] Reorganize the cpufreq cpu hotplug locking to not be totally bizareArjan van de Ven
The patch below moves the cpu hotplugging higher up in the cpufreq layering; this is needed to avoid recursive taking of the cpu hotplug lock and to otherwise detangle the mess. The new rules are: 1. you must do lock_cpu_hotplug() around the following functions: __cpufreq_driver_target __cpufreq_governor (for CPUFREQ_GOV_LIMITS operation only) __cpufreq_set_policy 2. governer methods (.governer) must NOT take the lock_cpu_hotplug() lock in any way; they are called with the lock taken already 3. if your governer spawns a thread that does things, like calling __cpufreq_driver_target, your thread must honor rule #1. 4. the policy lock and other cpufreq internal locks nest within the lock_cpu_hotplug() lock. I'm not entirely happy about how the __cpufreq_governor rule ended up (conditional locking rule depending on the argument) but basically all callers pass this as a constant so it's not too horrible. The patch also removes the cpufreq_governor() function since during the locking audit it turned out to be entirely unused (so no need to fix it) The patch works on my testbox, but it could use more testing (otoh... it can't be much worse than the current code) Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-07-25[IPV4/IPV6]: Setting 0 for unused port field in RAW IP recvmsg().Tetsuo Handa
From: Tetsuo Handa from-linux-kernel@i-love.sakura.ne.jp The recvmsg() for raw socket seems to return random u16 value from the kernel stack memory since port field is not initialized. But I'm not sure this patch is correct. Does raw socket return any information stored in port field? [ BSD defines RAW IP recvmsg to return a sin_port value of zero. This is described in Steven's TCP/IP Illustrated Volume 2 on page 1055, which is discussing the BSD rip_input() implementation. ] Acked-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2006-07-25[IPV4] ipmr: ip multicast route bug fix.Alexey Kuznetsov
IP multicast route code was reusing an skb which causes use after free and double free. From: Alexey Kuznetsov <kuznet@ms2.inr.ac.ru> Note, it is real skb_clone(), not alloc_skb(). Equeued skb contains the whole half-prepared netlink message plus room for the rest. It could be also skb_copy(), if we want to be puristic about mangling cloned data, but original copy is really not going to be used.

2006-07-24[NETFILTER]: xt_pkttype: fix mismatches on locally generated packetsPhil Oester
Locally generated broadcast and multicast packets have pkttype set to PACKET_LOOPBACK instead of PACKET_BROADCAST or PACKET_MULTICAST. This causes the pkttype match to fail to match packets of either type. The below patch remedies this by using the daddr as a hint as to broadcast|multicast. While not pretty, this seems like the only way to solve the problem short of just noting this as a limitation of the match.
