2009-01-11drivers/net/wireless/libertas: move a dereference below a NULL testJulia Lawall
In each case, if the NULL test is necessary, then the dereference should be moved below the NULL test. I have also taken advantage of the availability of the value of priv->dev in the subsequent calls to netif_stop_queue and netif_carrier_off. The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // <smpl> @@ type T; expression E; identifier i,fld; statement S; @@ - T i = E->fld; + T i; ... when != E when != i if (E == NULL) S + i = E->fld; // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Acked-by: Dan Williams <dcbw@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-12-29drivers/net/usb: use USB API functions rather than constantsJulia Lawall
This set of patches introduces calls to the following set of functions: usb_endpoint_dir_in(epd) usb_endpoint_dir_out(epd) usb_endpoint_is_bulk_in(epd) usb_endpoint_is_bulk_out(epd) usb_endpoint_is_int_in(epd) usb_endpoint_is_int_out(epd) usb_endpoint_num(epd) usb_endpoint_type(epd) usb_endpoint_xfer_bulk(epd) usb_endpoint_xfer_control(epd) usb_endpoint_xfer_int(epd) usb_endpoint_xfer_isoc(epd) In some cases, introducing one of these functions is not possible, and it just replaces an explicit integer value by one of the following constants: USB_ENDPOINT_XFER_BULK USB_ENDPOINT_XFER_CONTROL USB_ENDPOINT_XFER_INT USB_ENDPOINT_XFER_ISOC In drivers/net/wireless/zd1211rw/zd_usb.c the code: (endpoint->bEndpointAddress & USB_TYPE_MASK) == USB_DIR_OUT is suspicious. If it is intended to use USB_ENDPOINT_DIR_MASK rather than USB_TYPE_MASK, then the whole conditional test could be converted to a call to usb_endpoint_is_bulk_in. An extract of the semantic patch that makes these changes is as follows: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // <smpl> @r1@ struct usb_endpoint_descriptor *epd; @@ - ((epd->bmAttributes & \(USB_ENDPOINT_XFERTYPE_MASK\|3\)) == - \(USB_ENDPOINT_XFER_CONTROL\|0\)) + usb_endpoint_xfer_control(epd) @r5@ struct usb_endpoint_descriptor *epd; @@ - ((epd->bEndpointAddress & \(USB_ENDPOINT_DIR_MASK\|0x80\)) == - \(USB_DIR_IN\|0x80\)) + usb_endpoint_dir_in(epd) @inc@ @@ #include <linux/usb.h> @depends on !inc && (r1||r5)@ @@ + #include <linux/usb.h> #include <linux/usb/...> // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-12-19ath9k: Fixed RX decryption status reportingJouni Malinen
The RX code in ath9k uses sc_keymap to figure out whether a default key was used. However, the default key entries in sc_keymap were always set and as such, frames could have been claimed to be decrypted by hardware when they were not. This can cause problems especially with TKIP since mac80211 is validating the Michael MIC in the frame and this will result in MIC failure and potentially TKIP countermeasures if the frame was not decrypted correctly. Change key cache slot allocation to mark only the keys that really have been used in sc_keymap to avoid the issue. The key cache slot selection routines are now internally avoiding the slots that may be needed for TKIP group keys. Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <jouni.malinen@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2008-12-19iwlwifi: use GFP_KERNEL to allocate Rx SKB memoryZhu Yi

2008-12-19rtl8187: Fix crash on unload when using SLUB debugHerton Ronaldo Krzesinski
Reported-by: Hin-Tak Leung <htl10@users.sourceforge.net> After the code was modified to use urb anchors ("rtl8187: Use usb anchor facilities to manage urbs"), rtl8187 began generating an intermittent GPF on shutdown when using SLUB with debugging enabled. Furthermore, rebooting the system with a ping running caused a GPF every time. There are two problems: (1) incorrect locking in the rtl8187_rx_cb() routine, a pre-existing bug that apparently had not been triggered before, and (2) duplicate freeing of receive skbs that was probably introduced with the change to anchors.

2008-12-18netdevice zd1201: Use after freeWang Chen
| commit 3d29b0c33d431ecc69ec778f8c236d382f59a85f | Author: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com> | Date: Fri Oct 31 14:13:12 2008 -0400 | | netdevice zd1201: Convert directly reference of netdev->priv to netdev_priv() | | We have some reasons to kill netdev->priv: | 1. netdev->priv is equal to netdev_priv(). | 2. netdev_priv() wraps the calculation of netdev->priv's offset, obviously | netdev_priv() is more flexible than netdev->priv. | But we cann't kill netdev->priv, because so many drivers reference to it | directly. | | OK, becasue Dave S. Miller said, "every direct netdev->priv usage is a bug", | and I want to kill netdev->priv later, I decided to convert all the direct | reference of netdev->priv first. | | (Original patch posted by Wang Chen <wangchen@cn.fujitsu.com> w/ above | changelog but using dev->ml_priv. That doesn't seem appropriate | to me for this driver, so I've revamped it to use netdev_priv() | instead. -- JWL) This commit changed the allocation of netdev, but didn't change the free method of it. This causes "zd" be used after the memory, which is pointed by "zd", being freed by free_netdev(). Signed-off-by: Wang Chen <wangchen@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
