| | * iwlwifi: fix AMSDU Rx after paged Rx patchShanyu Zhao2010-02-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previous patch "use paged Rx" broke AMSDU Rx functionality. If an AP sends out A-MSDU packets the station will crash. Fix it by linearizing skbuff for AMSDU packet before handing it to mac80211 since mac80211 doesn't support paged skbuff.

| * | sfc: Fix SFE4002 initialisationSteve Hodgson2010-02-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | From: Steve Hodgson <shodgson@solarflare.com> Commit 357d46a17e54c9a87e0e6ef3930ff4ab2d232b81 "sfc: QT202x: Remove unreliable MMD check at initialisation" broke initialisation of the SFE4002. efx_mdio_reset_mmd() returns a positive value rather than 0 on success. The above commit causes this value to be propagated up by qt202x_reset_phy(), which is treated as a failure by its callers. Change qt202x_reset_phy() to return 0 if successful. The PCI layer treats >0 as "fail, but please call remove() anyway", which means that unloading the driver would cause a crash. Add a WARN_ON() on the failure path of efx_pci_probe() to provide early warning if there are any other cases where we do this.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, PAE frames are not assigned proper sequence numbers. Since sending PAE frames as part of aggregates breaks crupto with several APs, they are sent as normal MPDUs. Fix the seqeuence number issue by updating the frame with the internal sequence number.

| * | via-velocity: Fix races on shared interruptsSimon Kagstrom2010-02-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes two potential races in the velocity driver: * Move the ACK and error handler to the interrupt handler. This fixes a potential race with shared interrupts when the other device interrupts before the NAPI poll handler has finished. As the velocity driver hasn't acked it's own interrupt, it will then steal the interrupt from the other device. * Use spin_lock_irqsave in velocity_poll. In the current code, the interrupt handler will deadlock if e.g., the NAPI poll handler is executing when an interrupt (for another device) comes in since it tries to take the already held lock. Also unlock the spinlock only after enabling the interrupt in velocity_poll. The error path is moved to the interrupt handler since this is where the ISR is checked now.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Adding support for setting the coverage class in some cases broke association and data transfer, as it overwrote the initial ACK timeout value from the initvals with a smaller value. I don't know why the new value works in 5 GHz (matches the initval there), but not in 2.4 GHz (initvals use 64us here), so until the problem is fully understood, the value should be increased again.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When running directed active scans we currently end up sending both the SSID probe requests and an additional broadcast one. This is due to the fact that we always leave the probe request template SSID IE length to 0. Instead we should set it to the first SSID to scan, and fill the direct_scan array with the remaining SSIDs to scan for. This way we only send what we've been asked to: a broadcast probe request when no directed scan is requested, and directed probe requests otherwise.

The basic rate handling portion is OK, the problem is in the short slot handling. Prior to this change, the short slot enable/disable routines were never called. Experimentation showed that the critical part was changing the value at offset 0x0010 in the shared memory. This is supposed to contain the 802.11 Slot Time in usec, but if it is changed from its initial value of zero, performance is destroyed. On the other hand, changing the value in the MMIO register corresponding to the Interframe Slot Time increased performance from 18 to 22 Mb/s. A BCM4306/3 also shows dramatic improvement of the transmit rate from 5.3 to 19.0 Mb/s. Other changes in the patch include removal of the magic number for the MMIO register, and allowing the slot time to be set for any PHY operating in the 2.4 GHz band. Previously, the routine was executed only for G PHYs.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The AC131 does not enable the forced transmit clock settings immediately. The workaround is to read the register again to get the setting to take effect.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The driver puts the phy into low-power mode when it releases the device. If the device were to be reacquired, the phy needs a reset to bring it back to full powered operation. This patch allows phylib-enabled devices to reset the phy.
