* cfg80211: assimilate and export ieee80211_bss_get_ieJohannes Berg2009-07-10
| | | | | | | | This function from mac80211 seems generally useful, and I will need it in cfg80211 soon. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
* cfg80211: implement get_wireless_statsJohannes Berg2009-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | By dropping the noise reporting, we can implement wireless stats in cfg80211. We also make the handler return NULL if we have no information, which is possible thanks to the recent wext change. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

* cfg80211: implement IWRATEJohannes Berg2009-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | For now, let's implement that using a very hackish way: simply mirror the wext API in the cfg80211 API. This will have to be changed later when we implement proper bitrate API.

* cfg80211: managed mode wext compatibilityJohannes Berg2009-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds code to make it possible to use the cfg80211 connect() API with wireless extensions, and because the previous patch added emulation of that API with auth() and assoc(), by extension also supports wext on that. At the same time, removes code from mac80211 for wext, but doesn't yet clean up mac80211's mlme code more.

* cfg80211: emulate connect with auth/assocJohannes Berg2009-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | This adds code to cfg80211 so that drivers (mac80211 right now) that don't implement connect but rather auth/assoc can still be used with the nl80211 connect command. This will also be necessary for the wext compat code. Signed-off-by: Samuel Ortiz <samuel.ortiz@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

* cfg80211: connect/disconnect APISamuel Ortiz2009-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch introduces the cfg80211 connect/disconnect API. The goal here is to run the AUTH and ASSOC steps in one call. This is needed for some fullmac cards that run both steps directly from the target, after the host driver sends a connect command. Additionally, all the new crypto parameters for connect() are now also valid for associate() -- although associate requires the IEs to be used, the information can be useful for drivers and should be given.

* cfg80211: introduce nl80211 testmode commandJohannes Berg2009-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This introduces a new NL80211_CMD_TESTMODE for testing and calibration use with nl80211. There's no multiplexing like like iwpriv had, and the command is not available by default, it needs to be explicitly enabled in Kconfig and shouldn't be enabled in most kernels. The command requires a wiphy index or interface index to identify the device to operate on, and the new TESTDATA attribute. There also is API for sending replies to the command, and testmode multicast messages (on a testmode multicast group). I've also updated mac80211 to be able to pass through the command to the driver, since it itself doesn't implement the testmode command. Additionally, to give people an idea of how to use the command, I've added a little code to hwsim that makes use of the new command to set the powersave mode, this is currently done via debugfs and should remain there, and the testmode command only serves as an example of how to use this best -- with nested netlink attributes in the TESTDATA attribute. A hwsim testmode tool can be found at http://git.sipsolutions.net/hwsim.git/. This tool is BSD licensed so people can easily use it as a basis for their own internal fabrication and validation tools.

| | | | | | | | | | | Instead of hardcoding GFP_ATOMIC everywhere, add a new function parameter that gets the flags from the caller.

* mac80211: push rx status into skb->cbJohannes Berg2009-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Within mac80211, we often need to copy the rx status into skb->cb. This is wasteful, as drivers could be building it in there to start with. This patch changes the API so that drivers are expected to pass the RX status in skb->cb, now accessible as IEEE80211_SKB_RXCB(skb). It also updates all drivers to pass the rx status in there, but only by making them memcpy() it into place before the call to the receive function (ieee80211_rx(_irqsafe)). Each driver can now be optimised on its own schedule. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

| * net: adding memory barrier to the poll and receive callbacksJiri Olsa2009-07-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Adding memory barrier after the poll_wait function, paired with receive callbacks. Adding fuctions sock_poll_wait and sk_has_sleeper to wrap the memory barrier. Without the memory barrier, following race can happen. The race fires, when following code paths meet, and the tp->rcv_nxt and __add_wait_queue updates stay in CPU caches. CPU1 CPU2 sys_select receive packet ... ... __add_wait_queue update tp->rcv_nxt ... ... tp->rcv_nxt check sock_def_readable ... { schedule ... if (sk->sk_sleep && waitqueue_active(sk->sk_sleep)) wake_up_interruptible(sk->sk_sleep) ... } If there was no cache the code would work ok, since the wait_queue and rcv_nxt are opposit to each other. Meaning that once tp->rcv_nxt is updated by CPU2, the CPU1 either already passed the tp->rcv_nxt check and sleeps, or will get the new value for tp->rcv_nxt and will return with new data mask. In both cases the process (CPU1) is being added to the wait queue, so the waitqueue_active (CPU2) call cannot miss and will wake up CPU1. The bad case is when the __add_wait_queue changes done by CPU1 stay in its cache, and so does the tp->rcv_nxt update on CPU2 side. The CPU1 will then endup calling schedule and sleep forever if there are no more data on the socket.

We should switch the macro in the linker script to INIT_TASK_DATA. (Sorry that I missed this in reviewing the patch). Since the macros are new, there is only one user of the INIT_TASK in vmlinux.lds.h, arch/mn10300/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S. However, we are currently using INIT_TASK_DATA for laying down an entire .data.init_task section. So rename that to INIT_TASK_DATA_SECTION. I would be worried about changing the meaning of INIT_TASK_DATA, but the old INIT_TASK_DATA implementation had no users, and in fact if anyone had tried to use it, it would have failed to compile because it didn't pass the alignment to the old INIT_TASK.

This is currently only done upwards, when the packet size is reduced the sequence number is unchanged. This causes TCP conntrack to falsely detect unacknowledged data and decrease the timeout.

| * | | | perf_counter: Provide a way to enable counters on execPaul Mackerras2009-06-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This provides a way to mark a counter to be enabled on the next exec. This is useful for measuring the total activity of a program without including overhead from the process that launches it. This also changes the perf stat command to use this new facility.

| * | | | perf_counter: Rework the sample ABIPeter Zijlstra2009-06-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The PERF_EVENT_READ implementation made me realize we don't actually need the sample_type int the output sample, since we already have that in the perf_counter_attr information. Therefore, remove the PERF_EVENT_MISC_OVERFLOW bit and the event->type overloading, and imply put counter overflow samples in a PERF_EVENT_SAMPLE type. This also fixes the issue that event->type was only 32-bit and sample_type had 64 usable bits.

| * | | | perf_counter: Implement more accurate per task statisticsPeter Zijlstra2009-06-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With the introduction of PERF_EVENT_READ we have the possibility to provide accurate counter values for individual tasks in a task hierarchy. However, due to the lazy context switching used for similar counter contexts our current per task counts are way off. In order to maintain some of the lazy switch benefits we don't disable it out-right, but simply iterate the active counters and flip the values between the contexts. This only reads the counters but does not need to reprogram the full PMU.

In order to be useful, we log the counter parent ID, not the actual counter ID, since userspace can only relate parent IDs to perf_counter_attr constructs.
