* [PATCH] orinoco replace hermes_write_words() with hermes_write_bytes()Pavel Roskin2006-04-24
| | | | | | | | The new function can write an odd number of bytes, thus making padding unnecessary. Signed-off-by: Pavel Roskin <proski@gnu.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
* [PATCH] orinoco: orinoco_xmit() should only return valid symbolic constantsPavel Roskin2006-04-24

* [PATCH] orinoco: optimize Tx exception handling in orinocoPavel Roskin2006-04-24
| | | | | | | | | | When processing Tx exception, only read data until addr1. Rename hermes_tx_descriptor_802_11 to hermes_txexc_data since it's only used to Tx exceptions. Reuse existing hermes_tx_descriptor structure. Remove fields after addr1 - they are not read from the card. Signed-off-by: Pavel Roskin <proski@gnu.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 2.6.17-rc1 changed the title for the entry CONFIG_NET_RADIO. I personally disagree with this change and want it reverted. Patch for 2.6.17-rc1. Rationale : WIRELESS_EXT is an invisible option. Therefore, the only way for a user to enable it is via NET_RADIO. Some users need to do that for out-of-tree drivers. Therefore it should be mentionned in the title of the option. Rationale2 : the option just below is called "Wireless Extension API over RtNetlink". Some users may confuse this option for the main "Wireless Extension" option. Therefore reverting this change help disambiguate the relation between those two options.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Airo firmware versions >= 5.30.17 send re-association events to the driver that are currently unrecognized, causing spurious disassociation events to be sent to user space. Loss of sync due to scan requests also results in disassociation events sent to user space. This patch traps those two events; suppressing sync-loss on scan, and sending the correct association event on re-association notifications.

* | [TG3]: Speed up SRAM access (2nd version)Michael Chan2006-04-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Speed up SRAM read and write functions if possible by using MMIO instead of config. cycles. With this change, the post reset signature done at the end of D3 power change must now be moved before the D3 power change. IBM reported a problem on powerpc blades during ethtool self test that was caused by the memory test taking excessively long. Config. cycles are very slow on powerpc and the memory test can take more than 10 seconds to complete using config. cycles. David Miller informed me that an earlier version of the patch caused problems on sparc64 systems with built-in tg3 chips. This version fixes the problem by excluding all SUN built-in tg3 chips from doing MMIO SRAM access. TG3_FLAG_EEPROM_WRITE_PROT is also set unconditionally when TG3_FLG2_SUN_570X is set. This should be sane as all SUN chips are built-in and do not require Vaux switching. Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Some laptops have their smsc-ircc chip not properly configured by the BIOS and needs some preconfiguration. Currently, this can be done from userspace with smcinit, a utility that comes with the irda-utils package. It messes with ioports and PCI settings, from userspace. Now with this patch, if we happen to be on one of the known to be faulty laptops, we preconfigure the chip from the driver.
