| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix bug in nvram write function. If the starting nvram address offset happens to be the last dword of the page, the NVRAM_CMD_LAST bit will not get set in the existing code. This patch fixes the bug by changing the "else if" to "if" so that the last dword condition always gets checked. Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| * [TG3]: Add reset_phy parameter to chip reset functionsGary Zambrano2006-04-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a reset_phy parameter to tg3_reset_hw() and tg3_init_hw(). With the full chip reset during MAC address change, the automatic PHY reset during chip reset will cause a link down and bonding will not work properly as a result. With this reset_phy parameter, we can do a chip reset without link down when changing MAC address or MTU.

| * | [PATCH] ipw2200: Enable rtap interface for RF promiscuous mode while associatedZhu Yi2006-04-24

If the module is loaded with the rtap_iface=1 module parameter, two interfaces will be created (instead of just one). The second interface is prefixed 'rtap' and provides received 802.11 frames on the current channel to user space in a radiotap header format. Example usage: % modprobe ipw2200 rtap_iface=1 % iwconfig eth1 essid MyNetwork % dhcpcd eth1 % tcpdump -i rtap0 If you do not specify 'rtap_iface=1' then the rtap interface will not be created and you will need to turn it on via: % echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ipw2200/*/rtap_iface You can filter out what type of information is passed to user space via the rtap_filter sysfs entry. Currently you can tell the driver to transmit just the headers (which will provide the RADIOTAP and IEEE 802.11 header but not the payload), to filter based on frame control type (Management, Control, or Data), and whether to report transmitted frames, received frames, or both. The transmit frame reporting is based on a patch by Stefan Rompf. Filters can be get and set via a sysfs interface. For example, set the filter to only send headers (0x7), don't report Tx'd frames (0x10), and don't report data frames (0x100): % echo 0x117 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ipw2200/*/rtap_filter All your packets are belong to us: % tethereal -n -i rtap0 Signed-off-by: James Ketrenos <jketreno@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Zhu Yi <yi.zhu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
