2009-09-15Staging: wlan-ng: Convert firmware loading to load binary ihex formatKarl Relton
Convert prism2_usb firmware loading to load firmware in pre-compiled binary 'ihex' format rather than ascii 'srec' format. This moves the srec processing and sorting of records out of kernel space into a pre-compiler. The driver now just works with the binary image, but still does the 'pda plugging' of that image at runtime, as required by the prism hardware. Some Notes: - The firmware is now expected to be in the same 'ihex' (.fw) format used by other drivers. - The now driver assumes the data records are already sorted into ascending address order. - Plug and crc records are still recognised by special address locations as in original srec processing. - The srec S7 start address record is assumed to have been converted into a data record with another special address location (0xff400000), with the original start address being stored as a 4 byte data word (little endian).

2009-07-05net: convert remaining non-symbolic return values in ndo_start_xmit() functionsPatrick McHardy
This patch converts the remaining occurences of raw return values to their symbolic counterparts in ndo_start_xmit() functions that were missed by the previous automatic conversion. Additionally code that assumed the symbolic value of NETDEV_TX_OK to be zero is changed to explicitly use NETDEV_TX_OK. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-06-19Staging: wlan-ng: p80211wext.c: problem with IW_ENCODE_ALG_WEPJulia Lawall
The expression !(ext->alg & IW_ENCODE_ALG_WEP) appears to be incorrect, because there are several possible values for ext->alg that give 1 when bit-anded with IW_ENCODE_ALG_WEP. Therefore Richard Kennedy suggested to rewrite the code with != Added \n at the end of the debug string as well.

Move prism2 firmware loading from userspace into driver, using linux request_firmware(). Firmware is now loaded (if available) on device probing, before it is registered as a netdevice and advertised to userspace.
