This patch changes the string based list management to a handle base
implementation to help with the hot path use of pm-qos, it also renames
much of the API to use "request" as opposed to "requirement" that was
used in the initial implementation. I did this because request more
accurately represents what it actually does.
Also, I added a string based ABI for users wanting to use a string
interface. So if the user writes 0xDDDDDDDD formatted hex it will be
accepted by the interface. (someone asked me for it and I don't think
it hurts anything.)
This patch updates some documentation input I got from Randy.

As a third step, remove any usage of dev_node_t from drivers which
only wrote to this typedef/struct, except to determine whether
register_netdev() succeeded previously. However, the function calling
unregister_netdev() was only ever called by the PCMCIA core if
register_netdev() succeeded previously. The lonely exception was
easily fixed.

dev_node_t was only used to transport some minor/major numbers
from the PCMCIA device drivers to deprecated userspace helpers.
However, only a few drivers made use of it, and the userspace
helpers are deprecated anyways. Therefore, get rid of dev_node_t .
As a first step, remove any usage of dev_node_t from drivers which
only wrote to this typedef/struct, but did not make use of it.

Instead of the old pcmcia_request_irq() interface, drivers may now
choose between:
- calling request_irq/free_irq directly. Use the IRQ from *p_dev->irq.
- use pcmcia_request_irq(p_dev, handler_t); the PCMCIA core will
clean up automatically on calls to pcmcia_disable_device() or
device ejection.
- drivers still not capable of IRQF_SHARED (or not telling us so) may
use the deprecated pcmcia_request_exclusive_irq() for the time
being; they might receive a shared IRQ nonetheless.

This patch fixes a regression introduced by the following patch:
"ar9170: load firmware asynchronously"

or disconnect the usb device right away, we get into trouble:

Avoid that by waiting for the firmware loading to finish

Some firmware versions don't behave properly when
passive scanning is requested on radar channels
without enabling active scanning on receiving a
good frame. Work around that issue by asking the
firmware to only enable the active scanning after
receiving a huge number of good frames, a number
that can never be reached during our dwell time.

Hans de Goede identified a bug in p54p_check_tx_ring:
there are two ring indices. 1 => tx data and 3 => tx management.
But the old code had a constant "1" and this resulted in spurious
dma unmapping failures.

When an internal scan is started, nothing protects the
is_internal_short_scan variable which can cause crashes,
cf. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15667.
Fix this by making the short scan request use the mutex
for locking, which requires making the request go to a
work struct so that it can sleep.

The current algorithm will sometimes "detect" that
more chains are enabled than are really present in
the device because, for unknown reasons, the ucode
sends up all-zeroes signal values.
The simplest way of solving this is to restrict the
active chains mask to the chains we know are really
present on the device.
This fixes a bug with some devices where, since sometimes
more chains are enabled than really present, the system would hang.

We used to free all the Tx queues memory when interface is brought
down and reallocate them again in interface up. This requires
order-4 allocation for txq->cmd[]. In situations like s2ram, this
usually leads to allocation failure in the memory subsystem. The
patch fixed this problem by allocating the Tx queues memory only at
the first time. Later iwl_down/iwl_up only initialize but don't
free and reallocate them. The memory is freed at the device removal
time. BTW, we have already done this for the Rx queue.

When collecting tx data for non-aggregation packets in rate scaling, if
the tx data matches "other table", it still uses current table to update
the stats and calculate average throughput in function rs_collect_tx_data().
This can mess up the rate scaling data structure and cause a kernel panic
in a BUG_ON statement in rs_rate_scale_perform().
To fix this bug, we pass table pointer instead of window pointer (pointed
to by table pointer) to function rs_collect_tx_data() so that the table
being used is consistent.

iwlcore_init_geos() from drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-core.c.

Commit f661c6f8c67bd55e93348f160d590ff9edf08904 implemented a pipe type
check when CONFIG_USB_DEBUG is enabled. The check failed for all the ar9170
usb transfers and the driver could not configure the wifi dongle.
This went unnoticed until now because most people don't have

Previously in interrupt handling tasklet, iwlwifi driver only clear/ack
those interrupts that are enabled by the driver through inta_mask.
If the hardware generates unattended interrupts, driver will not ack them,
defeating the interrupt coalescing feature. This results in high number
of interrupts per second and high CPU utilization.
This patch addresses this issue by acking those unattended interrupts
in the tasklet. Local test showed an order of magnitude improvement
in terms of the number of interrupts without sacrificing networking
throughput. This is a workaround for hardware issue.

implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

iwl-devtrace.h is used to declare and define trace points and
including iwl-dev.h from the file, which in turn includes other
generic headers, can lead to problems like generating duplicate copies
of generic trace points depending on the order of includes. Don't
include iwl-dev.h from iwl-devtrace.h but include it from its users -
iwl-io.h and iwl-devtrace.c.

Commit a239a8b47cc0e5e6d7416a89f340beac06d5edaa introduced a
noisy message, that fills up the log very fast.
The error seems not to be fatal (the connection is stable and
performance is ok), so make it IWL_DEBUG_TX rather than IWL_ERR.

When I initially stumbled upon sequence number problems with PAE frames
in ath9k, I submitted a patch to remove all special cases for PAE
frames and let them go through the normal transmit path.
Out of concern about crypto incompatibility issues, this change was
merged instead:
commit 6c8afef551fef87a3bf24f8a74c69a7f2f72fc82
Author: Sujith <Sujith.Manoharan@atheros.com>
Date: Tue Feb 9 10:07:00 2010 +0530
ath9k: Fix sequence numbers for PAE frames
After a lot of testing, I'm able to reliably trigger a driver crash on
rekeying with current versions with this change in place.
It seems that the driver does not support sending out regular MPDUs with
the same TID while an A-MPDU session is active.
This leads to duplicate entries in the TID Tx buffer, which hits the
following BUG_ON in ath_tx_addto_baw():
index = ATH_BA_INDEX(tid->seq_start, bf->bf_seqno);
cindex = (tid->baw_head + index) & (ATH_TID_MAX_BUFS - 1);
BUG_ON(tid->tx_buf[cindex] != NULL);
I believe until we actually have a reproducible case of an
incompatibility with another AP using no PAE special cases, we should
simply get rid of this mess.
This patch completely fixes my crash issues in STA mode and makes it
stay connected without throughput drops or connectivity issues even
when the AP is configured to a very short group rekey interval.

we read the IQ correction values (i_cal and q_cal) for G mode from a wrong
location (the same shifts as for A mode is applied which is incorrect). use
correct locations, matching the docs and HAL sources.
also we should write IQ correction only when we have that information in the
EEPROM, starting from version 4. also write it in the same way as we do in the
periodic recalibration (enable last), just to be sure.

I/Q calibration was completely broken, resulting in a high number of CRC errors
on received packets. before i could see around 10% to 20% CRC errors, with this
patch they are between 0% and 3%.
1.) the removal of the mask in commit "ath5k: Fix I/Q calibration
(f1cf2dbd0f798b71b1590e7aca6647f2caef1649)" resulted in no mask beeing used
when writing the I/Q values into the register. additional errors in the
calculation of the values (see 2.) resulted too high numbers, exceeding the
masks, so wrong values like 0xfffffffe were written. to be safe we should
always use the bitmask when writing parts of a register.
2.) using a (s32) cast for q_coff is a wrong conversion to signed, since we
convert to a signed value later by substracting 128. this resulted in too low
numbers for Q many times, which were limited to -16 by the boundary check later
on.
3.) checked everything against the HAL sources and took over comments and minor
optimizations from there.
4.) we can't use ENABLE_BITS when we want to write a number (the number can
contain zeros). also always write the correction values first and set ENABLE
bit last, like the HAL does.
