2012-02-10Merge tag 'staging-3.3-rc3' into staging-nextGreg Kroah-Hartman
This was done to resolve some merge issues with the following files that had changed in both branches: drivers/staging/rtl8712/rtl871x_sta_mgt.c drivers/staging/tidspbridge/rmgr/drv_interface.c drivers/staging/zcache/zcache-main.c Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2012-02-09staging: r8712u: Simplify semaphoresLarry Finger
I am preparing to convert this driver from semaphore to mutex locking, The first step has been to eliminate a number of semaphores that were initialized but never used, and one whose only use was a single "up" after initialization. A total of 9 semaphores were removed in this process. One other change was to remove some inline semaphore routines that were unused. In addition, several cases had the following structure: down() if () { ... } up() The locking overhead was reduced by moving the up/down inside the if block.

2012-02-08staging: r8712u: Use asynchronous firmware loadingLarry Finger
In https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/27996, failure of driver r8712u is reported, with a timeout during module loading due to synchronous loading of the firmware. The code now uses request_firmware_nowait(). Signed-off-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> Cc: stable <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

2011-08-23staging: r8712u: Sets to SSID, and to AP MAC#, can now be done when the ↵Ali Bahar
interface is Down. The original Realtek code assumed that ioctl Sets get done after the interface is Up. This included the set to Essid and to the AP MAC#; and it fit Realtek's installation procedure. But there is no such necessity for the adapter, and no stated requirement found elsewhere. Also, wireless drivers typically permit this. A typical error message used to be: Error for wireless request "Set ESSID" (8B1A) : SET failed on device wlan0 ; Operation not permitted.

2010-08-20staging: r8712u: Add the new driver to the mainline kernelLarry Finger
This code is for a completely new version of the Realtek 8192 USB devices such as the D-Link DWA-130. The Realtek code, which was originally for Linux, Windows XP and Windows CE, has been stripped of all code not needed for Linux. In addition, only one additional configuration variable, which enables AP mode, remains.
