2012-05-18USB: Disable hub-initiated LPM for comms devices.Sarah Sharp
Hub-initiated LPM is not good for USB communications devices. Comms devices should be able to tell when their link can go into a lower power state, because they know when an incoming transmission is finished. Ideally, these devices would slam their links into a lower power state, using the device-initiated LPM, after finishing the last packet of their data transfer. If we enable the idle timeouts for the parent hubs to enable hub-initiated LPM, we will get a lot of useless LPM packets on the bus as the devices reject LPM transitions when they're in the middle of receiving data. Worse, some devices might blindly accept the hub-initiated LPM and power down their radios while they're in the middle of receiving a transmission. The Intel Windows folks are disabling hub-initiated LPM for all USB communications devices under a xHCI USB 3.0 host. In order to keep the Linux behavior as close as possible to Windows, we need to do the same in Linux. Set the disable_hub_initiated_lpm flag for for all USB communications drivers. I know there aren't currently any USB 3.0 devices that implement these class specifications, but we should be ready if they do.

This field is never set to anything non-zero in mac80211, so we should be able to remove it.

2012-02-29mac80211: handle non-bufferable MMPDUs correctlyJohannes Berg
This renames the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_POLL_RESPONSE TX flag to IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER and also uses it for non-bufferable MMPDUs (all MMPDUs but deauth, disassoc and action frames.) Previously, mac80211 would let the MMPDU through but not set the flag so drivers supporting some hardware aids for avoiding the PS races would then reject the frame.

2012-01-27mac80211: make beacon filtering per virtual interfaceJohannes Berg
Due to firmware limitations, we may not be able to support beacon filtering on all virtual interfaces. To allow this in mac80211, introduce per-interface driver capability flags that the driver sets when an interface is added.

2012-01-06Merge branch 'driver-core-next' into Linux 3.2Greg Kroah-Hartman
This resolves the conflict in the arch/arm/mach-s3c64xx/s3c6400.c file, and it fixes the build error in the arch/x86/kernel/microcode_core.c file, that the merge did not catch. The microcode_core.c patch was provided by Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> who was invaluable in the merge issues involved with the large sysdev removal process in the driver-core tree.

2011-12-20module_param: make bool parameters really bool (net & drivers/net)Rusty Russell
module_param(bool) used to counter-intuitively take an int. In fddd5201 (mid-2009) we allowed bool or int/unsigned int using a messy trick. It's time to remove the int/unsigned int option. For this version it'll simply give a warning, but it'll break next kernel version. (Thanks to Joe Perches for suggesting coccinelle for 0/1 -> true/false). Cc: "David S.

2011-11-28wireless: Remove redundant spi driver bus initializationLars-Peter Clausen
In ancient times it was necessary to manually initialize the bus field of an spi_driver to spi_bus_type. These days this is done in spi_driver_register(), so we can drop the manual assignment. The patch was generated using the following coccinelle semantic patch: // <smpl> @@ identifier _driver; @@ struct spi_driver _driver = { .driver = { - .bus = &spi_bus_type, }, }; // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Lars-Peter Clausen <lars@metafoo.de> Cc: Dan Williams <dcbw@redhat.com> Cc: "John W.
