* | ath9k: make DMA memory consistentLuis R. Rodriguez2008-11-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Make the DMAable mameory consistent with pci_set_consistent_dma_mask(). The DMA-mapping.txt Documentation recommends this but for PCI-X considerations and on strange architecture like SGI SN2, not sure why it would fix an issue but lets see if it does, just in case. Before this, this driver was tested with x86_64 with about 7 GB of RAM, not sure if this is really needed. Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <lrodriguez@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

* | ath9k: Race condition in accessing TX and RX buffers.Senthil Balasubramanian2008-11-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Race condition causes RX buffers to be accessed even before it is initialized. The RX and TX buffers are initialized immediately after the hardware is registered with mac80211. The mac80211 start callback is ready to be fired once the device is registered for a case when the wpa_supplicant is also running at the same time. The same race condition is also possible for RKFILL registration as RFKILL init happens after the device registration with mac80211 and it is possible that rfkill_register would be called even before it is initialized.

* | mac80211: rewrite HT handlingJohannes Berg2008-10-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The HT handling has the following deficiencies, which I've (partially) fixed: * it always uses the AP info even if there is no AP, hence has no chance of working as an AP * it pretends to be HW config, but really is per-BSS * channel sanity checking is left to the drivers * it generally lets the driver control too much HT enabling is still wrong with this patch if you have more than one virtual STA mode interface, but that never happens currently. Once WDS, IBSS or AP/VLAN gets HT capabilities, it will also be wrong, see the comment in ieee80211_enable_ht(). Additionally, this fixes a number of bugs: * mac80211: ieee80211_set_disassoc doesn't notify the driver any more since the refactoring * iwl-agn-rs: always uses the HT capabilities from the wrong stuff mac80211 gives it rather than the actual peer STA * ath9k: a number of bugs resulting from the broken HT API I'm not entirely happy with putting the HT capabilities into struct ieee80211_sta as restricted to our own HT TX capabilities, but I see no cleaner solution for now.

* | mac80211: make retry limits part of hw configJohannes Berg2008-10-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of having a separate callback, use the HW config callback with a new flag to change retry limits. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
* | mac80211: introduce hw config change flagsJohannes Berg2008-10-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This makes mac80211 notify the driver which configuration actually changed, e.g. channel etc. No driver changes, this is just plumbing, driver authors are expected to act on this if they want to. Also remove the HW CONFIG debug printk, it's incorrect, often we configure something else. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

* | 802.11: clean up/fix HT supportJohannes Berg2008-10-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch cleans up a number of things: * the unusable definition of the HT capabilities/HT information information elements * variable names that are hard to understand * mac80211: move ieee80211_handle_ht to ht.c and remove the unused enable_ht parameter * mac80211: fix bug with MCS rate 32 in ieee80211_handle_ht * mac80211: fix bug with casting the result of ieee80211_bss_get_ie to an information element _contents_ rather than the whole element, add size checking (another out-of-bounds access bug fixed!) * mac80211: remove some unused return values in favour of BUG_ON checking * a few minor other things Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

* | net: convert print_mac to %pMJohannes Berg2008-10-27
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | This converts pretty much everything to print_mac. There were a few things that had conflicts which I have just dropped for now, no harm done. I've built an allyesconfig with this and looked at the files that weren't built very carefully, but it's a huge patch. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

* ath9k/mac80211: disallow fragmentation in ath9k, report to userspaceJohannes Berg2008-10-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As I've reported, ath9k currently fails utterly when fragmentation is enabled. This makes ath9k "support" hardware fragmentation by not supporting fragmentation at all to avoid the double-free issue. The patch also changes mac80211 to report errors from the driver operation to userspace. That hack in ath9k should be removed once the rate control algorithm it has is fixed, and we can at that time consider removing the hw fragmentation support entirely since it's not used by any driver.
