2010-12-20hostap: remove netif_stop_queue from initMeelis Roos
Fix runtime warning with backtrace from hostap by removing netif_stop_queue() call before register_netdev. Tested to work fine on hostap_pci Prism 2.5. (This removes a warning about calling netif_stop_queue before register_netdev is called. -- JWL) Signed-off-by: Meelis Roos <mroos@linux.ee> Acked-by: David S.

2010-12-20mac80211/rt2x00: add ieee80211_tx_status_ni()Johannes Stezenbach
All rt2x00 drivers except rt2800pci call ieee80211_tx_status() from a workqueue, which causes "NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 08" messages. To fix it, add ieee80211_tx_status_ni() similar to ieee80211_rx_ni() which can be called from process context, and call it from rt2x00lib_txdone(). For the rt2800pci special case a driver flag is introduced. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24892 Signed-off-by: Johannes Stezenbach <js@sig21.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

2010-12-09iwlagn: implement layout-agnostic EEPROM readingWey-Yi Guy
From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> The current EEPROM reading code has some layout assumptions that now turned out to be false with some newer versions of the EEPROM. Luckily, we can avoid all such assumptions by using data in the EEPROM itself, so implement using that. However, for risk mitigation purposes, keep the old reading code for current hardware for now.

2010-12-08orinoco: fix TKIP countermeasure behaviourDavid Kilroy
Enable the port when disabling countermeasures, and disable it on enabling countermeasures. This bug causes the response of the system to certain attacks to be ineffective. It also prevents wpa_supplicant from getting scan results, as wpa_supplicant disables countermeasures on startup - preventing the hardware from scanning. wpa_supplicant works with ap_mode=2 despite this bug because the commit handler re-enables the port. The log tends to look like: State: DISCONNECTED -> SCANNING Starting AP scan for wildcard SSID Scan requested (ret=0) - scan timeout 5 seconds EAPOL: disable timer tick EAPOL: Supplicant port status: Unauthorized Scan timeout - try to get results Failed to get scan results Failed to get scan results - try scanning again Setting scan request: 1 sec 0 usec Starting AP scan for wildcard SSID Scan requested (ret=-1) - scan timeout 5 seconds Failed to initiate AP scan.

2010-12-08orinoco: clear countermeasure setting on commitDavid Kilroy
... and interface up. In these situations, you are usually trying to connect to a new AP, so keeping TKIP countermeasures active is confusing. This is already how the driver behaves (inadvertently). However, querying SIOCGIWAUTH may tell userspace that countermeasures are active when they aren't. Clear the setting so that the reporting matches what the driver has done..

2010-11-08ath9k_hw: Fix AR9280 surprise removal during frequent idle on/offVasanthakumar Thiagarajan
Bit 22 of AR_WA should be set to fix the situation where chip reset is asynchronous to clock of analog shift registers, such that when reset is released, it could mess up the values of analog shift registers and cause some hw issue on AR9280. This bit is write only, but the driver does a read-modify-write on AR_WA without setting bit 22 in ar9002_hw_configpcipowersave() during radio disable. This causes surprise removal of hw. It can never recover from this state and the hw will become usable only after a power on/off cycle, and sometimes only during a cold reboot. This issue can be triggered by doing frequent roaming with the simple/test-roam script available from the wifi-test project [1] when roaming between APs quickly. When roaming there is a is a high possibility that the device being put into idle (radio disable) state by mac80211 during AUTH->ASSOC. A device hardware reset would fail and the kernel would output: [40251.363799] ath: AWAKE -> FULL-SLEEP [40251.363815] ieee80211 phy17: device no longer idle - working [40251.363817] ath: Marking phy17 as not-idle [40251.363819] ath: FULL-SLEEP -> AWAKE [40251.415978] pciehp 0000:00:1c.3:pcie04: Card not present on Slot(3) [40251.419896] ath: ah->misc_mode 0x4 [40251.428138] pciehp 0000:00:1c.3:pcie04: Card present on Slot(3) [40251.532247] ath: timeout (100000 us) on reg 0x9860: 0xffffffff & 0x00000001 != 0x00000000 [40251.532250] ath: Unable to reset channel (2462 MHz), reset status -5 [40251.532422] ath: Set channel: 5745 MHz [40251.540639] ath: Failed to stop TX DMA in 100 msec after killing last frame [40251.548826] ath: Failed to stop TX DMA in 100 msec after killing last frame [40251.557023] ath: Failed to stop TX DMA in 100 msec after killing last frame [40251.565211] ath: Failed to stop TX DMA in 100 msec after killing last frame [40251.573415] ath: Failed to stop TX DMA in 100 msec after killing last frame [40251.581603] ath: Failed to stop TX DMA in 100 msec after killing last frame [40251.581606] ath: Failed to stop TX DMA.

2010-11-08libertas: terminate scan when stopping interfaceDaniel Drake
There are currently no provisions in place to ensure that the scanning task has been stopped when the interface is stopped or removed. This can result in a WARNING at net/wireless/core.c:643 and other badness when you remove the module while a scan is happening. Terminate the scanning task during interface stop.

2010-11-08ath9k: check old power mode before clearing cycle countersFelix Fietkau
ath9k_ps_wakeup() clears the cycle counters after waking up the hardware using ath9k_hw_setpower, however if power save is disabled, then the counters will contain useful data, which then gets discarded. Fix this by checking the old power mode before discarding any data. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2010-11-08ath9k: Avoid HW opmode overridden on monitor mode changesRajkumar Manoharan
The HW opmode is blindly set to monitor type on monitor mode change notification. This overrides the opmode when one of the interfaces is still running as non-monitor iftype. So the monitoring information needs to be maintained seperately. Signed-off-by: Rajkumar Manoharan <rmanoharan@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2010-11-08libipw: fix proc entry removalLinus Torvalds
This bug seems to be due to commit 27ae60f8f7aac ("ipw2x00: replace "ieee80211" with "libipw" where appropriate"), where Pavel did this: - libipw_proc = proc_mkdir(DRV_NAME, init_net.proc_net); + libipw_proc = proc_mkdir("ieee80211", init_net.proc_net); but then the cleanup was kept as remove_proc_entry(DRV_NAME, init_net.proc_net); in both places (both in the failure case and in the unload case). The error string is also total crap, and says "Unable to create " DRV_NAME " proc directory\n"); Even though it doesn't actually create a proc directory named DRV_NAME at all. So that patch looks like total and utter crap to me. The commit message says "Keep /proc/net/ieee80211 under the original name to avoid breaking user interface." but the thing is, it really didn't fix anything but that one create thing. It needs to fix all the other cases too. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Tested-by: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
