2007-08-06[PATCH] zd1211rw: fix filter for PSPOLL framesUlrich Kunitz
While filling the control set the driver tests for a PSPOLL frame. But it tested only the subtype of the packet. The full type needs to be tested to identify those packets reliably.

2007-07-17Freezer: make kernel threads nonfreezable by defaultRafael J. Wysocki
Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves. This approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't care for the freezing of tasks at all. It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is done in this patch. The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie. to have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable() function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to unset PF_NOFREEZE. It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional) change of behaviour to appear. Additionally, it updates documentation to describe the freezing of tasks more accurately. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: build fixes] Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2007-07-11PCI: Change all drivers to use pci_device->revisionAuke Kok
Instead of all drivers reading pci config space to get the revision ID, they can now use the pci_device->revision member. This exposes some issues where drivers where reading a word or a dword for the revision number, and adding useless error-handling around the read. Some drivers even just read it for no purpose of all. In devices where the revision ID is being copied over and used in what appears to be the equivalent of hotpath, I have left the copy code and the cached copy as not to influence the driver's performance. Compile tested with make all{yes,mod}config on x86_64 and i386.

2007-07-10[PATCH] zd1211rw: Defer firmware load until first ifupDaniel Drake
While playing with the firmware a while back, I discovered a way to access the device's entire address space before the firmware has been loaded. Previously we were loading the firmware early on (during probe) so that we could read the MAC address from the EEPROM and register a netdevice. Now that we can read the EEPROM without having firmware, we can defer firmware loading until later while still reading the MAC address early on. This has the advantage that zd1211rw can now be built into the kernel -- previously if this was the case, zd1211rw would be loaded before the filesystem is available and firmware loading would fail. Firmware load and other device initialization operations now happen the first time the interface is brought up. Some architectural changes were needed: handling of the is_zd1211b flag was moved into the zd_usb structure, MAC address handling was obviously changed, and a preinit_hw stage was added (the order is now: init, preinit_hw, init_hw).

2007-07-10[PATCH] airo: fix a race causing initialization failuresMichal Schmidt
Matteo Croce reported Aironet initialization failures. They were caused by a race in airo. airo finds a free interface name, then initializes the card and finally registers the interface. Another device may get the same name in the meantime. The reason airo gets its name early is to use it in informative printks and to name the resources it requests. The printks will be just fine without the interface name and the resources can use the driver's name - that's what other network drivers do anyway. One of the talkative functions is setup_card(). It is called once before registration and can be called later again. Let's have an empty dev->name during the first call, so it doesn't print the ugly "airo(eth%d)" message.

2007-07-08[PATCH] zd1211rw: Make CCK gain patching conditional on RF typeDaniel Drake
The vendor driver code suggests that CR47 patching happens on every channel change for every RF (depending on bit 8 in POD). Due to a bug in their driver (upper bits of RF_Mode get zeroed out, then are examined for 1s when setting some other flags), this isn't actually what happens, and their generic CCK patching routine never takes effect. Some of their RF configurations do include explicit (duplicated) code for CR47 patching though. This patch makes zd1211rw match that behaviour.

This patch adds support for another radio appearing in new devices: the Ubec UW2453. It's more complicated than the other RF's we support, but Ubec publish full tech specs so we're able to understand the vendor code relatively well. Now that we support UW2453, we also support Atheros' new USB chip: the AR5007UG. From the little info we have, this appears to be just a rebranded ZD1211B. This RF code doesn't work very well -- lots more TX/RX errors than the other RFs. However, the vendor driver doesn't do any better, so this is all we can do for now.

The value to write on anycast_mask will specify which addresses the device listens to. Bits in a 32 bit int are numbered from 0 (least significative bit) to 31. A specific address ending in YY will be listened to if bit YY in the value is set to one.
