2011-05-10rtlwifi: Move 2 large arrays off stackLarry Finger
In driver rtlwifi, efuse_read() places two relatively large arrays on the stack - a 1D u8 array of size 128, and a 2D array of u16 with 128 * 4 elements. With driver rtl8192de, the sizes will be 256 and 256 * 4 respectively. As that will make the 2D array be 2048 bytes, I have changed the code to use kmalloc to allocate the space.

2011-05-10iwlagn: fix iwl_is_any_associatedJohannes Berg
The function iwl_is_any_associated() was intended to check both contexts, but due to an oversight it only checks the BSS context. This leads to a problem with scanning since the passive dwell time isn't restricted appropriately and a scan that includes passive channels will never finish if only the PAN context is associated since the default dwell time of 120ms won't fit into the normal 100 TU DTIM interval. Fix the function by using for_each_context() and also reorganise the other functions a bit to take advantage of each other making the code easier to read.

2011-05-06iwlwifi: support the svtool messages interactions through nl80211 test modeCindy H. Kao
This patch adds the feature to support the test mode operation through the generic netlink channel NL80211_CMD_TESTMODE between intel wireless device iwlwifi and the user space application svtool. The main purpose is to create a transportation layer between the iwlwifi device and the user space application so that the interaction between the user space application svtool and the iwlwifi device in the kernel space is in a way of generic netlink messaging. The detail specific functions are: 1. The function iwl_testmode_cmd() is added to digest the svtool test command from the user space application. The svtool test commands are categorized to three types : commands to be processed by the device ucode, commands to access the registers, and commands to be processed at the driver level(such as reload the ucode). iwl_testmode_cmd() dispatches the commands the corresponding handlers and reply to user space regarding the command execution status. Extra data is returned to the user space application if there's any. 2. The function iwl_testmode_ucode_rx_pkt() is added to multicast all the spontaneous messages from the iwlwifi device to the user space. Regardless the message types, whenever there is a valid spontaneous message received by the iwlwifi ISR, iwl_testmode_ucode_rx_pkt() is invoked to multicast the message content to user space. The message content is not attacked and the message parsing is left to the user space application. Implementation guidelines: 1. The generic netlink messaging for iwliwif test mode is through NL80211_CMD_TESTMODE channel, therefore, the codes need to follow the regulations set by cfg80211.ko to get the actual device instance ieee80211_ops via cfg80211.ko, so that the iwlwifi device is indicated with ieee80211_ops and can be actually accessed. Therefore, a callback iwl_testmode_cmd() is added to the structure iwlagn_hw_ops in iwl-agn.c. 2. It intends to utilize those low level device access APIs from iwlwifi device driver (ie. iwlagn.ko) rather than creating it's own set of device access functions. For example, iwl_send_cmd(), iwl_read32(), iwl_write8(), and iwl_write32() are reused. 3. The main functions are maintained in new files instead of spreading all over the existing iwlwifi driver files. The new files added are : drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-sv-open.c - to handle the user space test mode application command and reply the respective command status to the user space application. - to multicast the spontaneous messages from device to user space. drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-testmode.h - the commonly referenced definitions for the TLVs used in the generic netlink messages Signed-off-by: Cindy H.

2011-05-05ath9k_hw: fix power for the HT40 duplicate framesLuis R. Rodriguez
With AR9003 at about ~ 10 feet from an AP that uses RTS / CTS you will be able to associate but not not get data through given that the power for the rates used was set too low. This increases the power and permits data connectivity at longer distances from access points when connected with HT40. Without this you will not get any data through when associated to APs configured in HT40 at about more than 10 feet away.

2011-05-05ath9k_hw: do noise floor calibration only on required chainsRajkumar Manoharan
At present the noise floor calibration is processed in supported control and extension chains rather than required chains. Unnccesarily doing nfcal in all supported chains leads to invalid nf readings on extn chains and these invalid values got updated into history buffer. While loading those values from history buffer is moving the chip to deaf state. This issue was observed in AR9002/AR9003 chips while doing associate/dissociate in HT40 mode and interface up/down in iterative manner. After some iterations, the chip was moved to deaf state. Somehow the pci devices are recovered by poll work after chip reset. Raading the nf values in all supported extension chains when the hw is not yet configured in HT40 mode results invalid values.

2011-05-05carl9170: fix allmulticast modeNicolas Cavallari
Currently, the driver only disable multicast filtering when the FIF_ALLMULTI driver flag has been just set (ie, if changed_flags& FIF_ALLMULTI and *new_flags& FIF_ALLMULTI) or else it will reenable multicast filtering. But next time, this condition will be false and multicast filtering will be reenabled, even through FIF_ALLMULTI is still set. This mean that allmulticast only works for less than two minutes in ad-hoc mode. This patch fixes that to disable multicast filtering as long as FIF_ALLMULTI is set.

2011-05-05nl80211: Fix set_key regression with some driversJouni Malinen
Commit dbd2fd656f2060abfd3a16257f8b51ec60f6d2ed added a mechanism for user space to indicate whether a default key is being configured for only unicast or only multicast frames instead of all frames. This commit added a driver capability flag for indicating whether separate default keys are supported and validation of the set_key command based on that capability. However, this single capability flag is not enough to cover possible difference based on mode (AP/IBSS/STA) and the way this change was introduced resulted in a regression with drivers that do not indicate the new capability (i.e.., more or less any non-mac80211 driver using cfg80211) when using a recent wpa_supplicant snapshot. Fix the regression by removing the new check which is not strictly speaking needed. The new separate default key functionality is needed only for RSN IBSS which has a separate capability indication.

2011-05-05mwifiex: fix simultaneous assoc and scan issueAmitkumar Karwar
When scan and assoc (infra/ibss) commands are simultaneously given in two terminals, association response is erroneously served while serving the scan response. mwifiex_cfg80211_results() is the common routine for sending ioctl (scan, assoc etc.) results to cfg80211 stack. In above scenario even if the common routine is called for scan ioctl context, it also tries to send information about assoc ioctl to cfg80211 because "priv->assoc_request/priv->ibss_join_request" flag is on at that time.
