Jarek Poplawski authored
There are BUGs "scheduling while atomic" triggered by the timer rhine_tx_timeout(). They are caused by calling napi_disable() (with msleep()). This patch fixes it by moving most of the timer content to the workqueue function (similarly to other drivers, like tg3), with spin_lock() changed to BH version. Additionally, there is spin_lock_irq() moved in rhine_close() to exclude napi_disable() etc., also tg3's way.

This patch adds a pci_save_state() call in ixgbe_resume() after pci_restore_state(). A similar change was made in ixgbe_io_slot_reset() that accommodates pci_restore_state() new behavior. This change makes pci_restore_state() clear the saved_state flag This is necessary due to a resent kernel change to pci_restore_state() so that it now clears the saved_state flag of the device right after the device.s standard configuration registers have been poplulated with the previously saved values.

The ethtool code for enabling Wake on Lan was not correctly checking the status register bits so as a result ports 0 and 2 were both being allowed to set WOL to enabled even though it is only supported on the first port for our adapters.

This change resolves an issue seen in some configurations where the link may drop to 100Mb/s even though the link itself supports 1000Mb/s. The issue was root caused to the fact that we were only trying the link once. Now instead we will try up to 5 attempts on a faulty cable before downshifting to 100Mb/s.

The PHY boots in a mode which is not necessarily optimal. This change switches it to self-configure mode (except when in loopback, which won't work in that mode if an SFP+ module is not present) by rebooting the PHY's microcontroller, and replicating the sequence of configuration writes from the boot EEPROM with the appropriate changes.

The XGXS block may not get a link immediately in XGXS or XAUI loopback modes, so we still need to check it. Split falcon_xaui_link_ok() into falcon_xgxs_link_ok(), which checks only the Falcon XGXS block, and falcon_xmac_link_ok(), which checks one or both sides of the link as appropriate. Also rename falcon_check_xaui_link() to falcon_xmac_link_ok_retry(). Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

My commit 77fdaa12 Author: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Date: Tue Jul 7 03:45:17 2009 +0200 mac80211: rework MLME for multiple authentications inadvertedly broke WMM because it removed, along with a bunch of other now useless initialisations, the line initialising sdata->u.mgd.wmm_last_param_set to -1 which would make it adopt any WMM parameter set. If, as is usually the case, the AP uses WMM parameter set sequence number zero, we'd never update it until the AP changes the sequence number. Add the missing initialisation back to get the WMM settings from the AP applied locally.

I noticed yesterday, because Jeff had noticed a speed regression, cf. bug http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2138 that the SM PS settings for peers were wrong. Instead of overwriting the SM PS settings with the local bits, we need to keep the remote bits. The bug was part of the original HT code from over two years ago, but unfortunately nobody noticed that it makes no sense -- we shouldn't be overwriting the peer's setting with our own but rather keep it intact when masking the peer capabilities with our own. While fixing that, I noticed that the masking of capabilities is completely useless for most of the bits, so also fix those other bits. Finally, I also noticed that PSMP_SUPPORT no longer exists in the final 802.11n version, so also remove that. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

Daniel Mack authored
The libertas driver copies the SSID buffer back to the wireless core and appends a trailing NULL character for termination. This is a) unnecessary because the buffer is allocated with kzalloc and is hence already NULLed when this function is called, and b) for priv->curbssparams.ssid_len == 32, it writes back one byte too much which causes memory corruptions. Fix this by removing the extra write.

we see from http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2125 that power saving does not work well on 3945. Since then power saving has also been connected with association problems where an AP deathenticates a 3945 after it is unable to transmit data to it - this happens when 3945 enters power savings mode. Disable power save support until issues are resolved. Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> CC: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

I've also for a long time had a problem with the temperature calculation code, which I had fixed by byte-swapping the values, and now it turns out that was the correct fix after all. Also, any use of iwl_eeprom_query_addr() that is for more than a u8 must be cast to little endian, and some structs as well. Fix all this. Again, no real impact on platforms that already are little endian.

The construct "le16_to_cpu((__force __le16)(r >> 16))" has always bothered me when looking through the iwlwifi code, it shouldn't be necessary to __force anything, and before this code, "r" was obtained with an ioread32, which swaps each of the two u16 values in it properly when swapping the entire u32 value. I've had arguments about this code with people before, but always conceded they were right because removing it only made things not work at all on big endian platforms. However, analysing a failure of the OTP reading code, I now finally figured out what is going on, and why my intuition about that code being wrong was right all along. It turns out that the 'priv->eeprom' u8 array really wants to have the data in it in little endian. So the force code above and all really converts *to* little endian, not from it. Cf., for instance, the function iwl_eeprom_query16() -- it reads two u8 values and combines them into a u16, in a little-endian way. And considering it more, it makes sense to have the eeprom array as on the device, after all not all values really are 16-bit values, the MAC address for instance is not. Now, what this really means is that all the annotations are completely wrong. The eeprom reading code should fill the priv->eeprom array as a __le16 array, with __le16 values. This also means that iwl_read_otp_word() should really have a __le16 pointer as the data argument, since it should be filling that in a format suitable for priv->eeprom. Propagating these changes throughout, iwl_find_otp_image() is found to be, now obviously visible, defective -- it uses the data returned by iwl_read_otp_word() directly as if it was CPU endianness. Fixing that, which is this hunk of the patch: - next_link_addr = link_value * sizeof(u16); + next_link_addr = le16_to_cpu(link_value) * sizeof(u16); is the only real change of this patch. Everything else is just fixing the sparse annotations. Also, the bug only shows up on big endian platforms with a 1000 series card. 5000 and previous series do not use OTP, and 6000 series has shadow RAM support which means we don't ever use the defective code on any cards but 1000.

We've had many reports of rt61pci failures with powersaving enabled. Therefore, as a stop-gap measure, disable powersaving of the rt61pci until we have found a proper solution. Also disable powersaving on rt2800pci as it most probably will show the same problem.

sizeof(iv16) and sizeof(iv32) are the sizes of pointers. Change them to the size of the copied data. Furthermore, iveiv_entry is a local structure that has just been initialized and is not visible outside this function. Thus, there would seem to be no point to copy data into it. The order of the arguments is thus changed to copy the data into the parameters, which are provided as pointers, suggesting in this case that they should be used to return values. A simplified version of the semantic patch that finds the first problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ expression *x; expression f; type T; @@ *f(...,(T)x,...) // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Acked-by: Gertjan van Wingerde <gwingerde@gmail.com> Acked-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

First, we copy/paste the padding stuff from ath9k_tx to ath_tx_cabq since it needs to same kind of padding, but for internally generated beacons. Next, software padding done on TX needs to be removed before calling ieee80211_tx_status. The code was already there in ath_tx_complete but it was wrong. Fix it by using ath9k_cmn_padpos. This later code has been tested by sending packets to a monitor interface and reading packets from the same interface.

Recent commits "iwlwifi: remove power-wasting calls to apm_ops.init()" and "iwlagn: power up device before initializing EEPROM" had the goal of reducing device power consumption from the time the module is loaded until the interface is brought up and the device's power saving mechanisms kick in. The idea is that once the module is loaded there is no need for the device to consume power until the interface is brought up. With the current solution the device is only powered up during EEPROM read, and then so also only if the EEPROM type is OTP. We have found that on certain platforms even non-OTP devices require power to be up during EEPROM read. On these platforms the driver never loads and the system log contains the following: iwlagn 0000:03:00.0: MAC is in deep sleep!. CSR_GP_CNTRL = 0x080403D8 We thus now power up all devices during EEPROM read. Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
