* iwlagn: Fix a bug introduced by the HUGE command removalEmmanuel Grumbach2011-06-241-6/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Since we don't have HUGE command any more, there is no point in adding 1 to the num of slots in the command queue. Doing so is buggy and might corrupt memory.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Ignacy reports that sometimes after leaving an IBSS joining a new one didn't work because there still were stations on the list. He fixed it by flushing stations when attempting to join a new IBSS, but this shouldn't be happening in the first case. When I looked into it I saw a race condition in teardown that could cause stations to be added after flush, and thus cause this situation. Ignacy confirms that after applying my patch he hasn't seen this happen again.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When one of the SSID's length passed in a scan or sched_scan request is larger than 255, there will be an overflow in the u8 that is used to store the length before checking. This causes the check to fail and we overrun the buffer when copying the SSID. Fix this by checking the nl80211 attribute length before copying it to the struct. This is a follow up for the previous commit 208c72f4fe44fe09577e7975ba0e7fa0278f3d03, which didn't fix the problem entirely.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes 802.11n stability and performance regression we have since 2.6.35. It boost performance on my 5GHz N-only network from about 5MB/s to 8MB/s. Similar percentage boost can be observed on 2.4 GHz. These are test results of 5x downloading of approximately 700MB iso image: vanilla: 5.27 5.22 4.94 4.47 5.31 ; avr 5.0420 std 0.35110 patched: 8.07 7.95 8.06 7.99 7.96 ; avr 8.0060 std 0.055946 This was achieved with NetworkManager configured to do not perform periodical scans, by configuring constant BSSID. With periodical scans, after some time, performance downgrade to unpatched driver level, like in example below: patched: 7.40 7.61 4.28 4.37 4.80 avr 5.6920 std 1.6683 However patch still make better here, since similar test on unpatched driver make link disconnects with below messages after some time: wlan1: authenticate with 00:23:69:35:d1:3f (try 1) wlan1: authenticate with 00:23:69:35:d1:3f (try 2) wlan1: authenticate with 00:23:69:35:d1:3f (try 3) wlan1: authentication with 00:23:69:35:d1:3f timed out On 2.6.35 kernel patch helps against connection hangs with messages: iwlagn 0000:20:00.0: queue 10 stuck 3 time.

* libertas_sdio: handle spurious interruptsDaniel Drake2011-06-031-5/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 06e8935febe687e2a561707d4c7ca4245d261dbe adds an IRQ handling optimization for single-function SDIO cards like this one, but at the same time exposes a small hardware bug. During hardware init, an interrupt is generated with (apparently) no source. Previously, mmc threw this interrupt away, but now (due to the optimization), the mmc layer passes this onto libertas, before it is ready (and before it has enabled interrupts), causing a crash. Work around this hardware bug by registering the IRQ handler later and making it capable of handling interrupts with no cause. The change that makes the IRQ handler registration happen later actually eliminates the spurious interrupt as well. Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake <dsd@laptop.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

Problem here is that usb_bulk_msg() on interrupt endpoint selfcorrects the call and changes requested pipe to interrupt type (see usb_bulk_msg). However with usb_interrupt_msg() on bulk endpoint does not correct the pipe type to bulk, but instead URB is submitted with interrupt type pipe. So pre-2.6.39 used usb_bulk_msg() and therefore worked with both endpoint types, however in 2.6.39 usb_interrupt_msg() with bulk endpoint causes ohci_hcd to fail submitted URB instantly with -ENOSPC and preventing zd1211rw from working with OHCI. Fix this by detecting endpoint type and using correct endpoint/pipe types for URB. Also fix asynchronous zd_usb_iowrite16v_async() to use right URB type on 'EP 4 OUT'.

* wl12xx: fix oops in sched_scan when forcing a passive scanLuciano Coelho2011-05-311-3/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix kernel oops when trying to use passive scheduled scans. The reason was that in passive scans there are no SSIDs, so there was a NULL pointer dereference. To solve the problem, we now check the number of SSIDs provided in the sched_scan request and only access the list if there's one or more (ie. passive scan is not forced). We also force all the channels to be passive by adding the IEEE80211_CHAN_PASSIVE_SCAN flag locally before the checks in the wl1271_scan_get_sched_scan_channels() function.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before this patch, the command sequence number is being set before lbs_queue_cmd() adds the command to the queue. However, lbs_queue_cmd() sometimes forces commands to queue-jump (e.g. CMD_802_11_WAKEUP_CONFIRM). It currently does this without considering that sequence numbers might need adjusting to keep things running in order. Fix this by setting the sequence number at a later stage, just before we're actually submitting the command to the hardware.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We make oldconfig every time when a new kernel arrives, but if we don't have such a device(I guess this is the most common case for a new device), the default value should be 'n' so that the kernel size we build doesn't grow up too much quickly. For anyone who has the device, it is OK for them to turn it on by themselves. Cc: "John W.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Whenever there is a channel width change from 40 Mhz to 20 Mhz, the hardware is reconfigured to ht20. Meantime before doing the rate control updation, the packets are being transmitted are selected rate with IEEE80211_TX_RC_40_MHZ_WIDTH. While transmitting ht40 rate packets in ht20 mode is causing baseband panic with AR9003 based chips. ==== BB update: BB status=0x02001109 ==== ath: ** BB state: wd=1 det=1 rdar=0 rOFDM=1 rCCK=1 tOFDM=0 tCCK=0 agc=2 src=0 ** ath: ** BB WD cntl: cntl1=0xffff0085 cntl2=0x00000004 ** ath: ** BB mode: BB_gen_controls=0x000033c0 ** ath: ** BB busy times: rx_clear=99%, rx_frame=0%, tx_frame=0% ** ath: ==== BB update: done ==== Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Rajkumar Manoharan <rmanoharan@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Although a previous fix handles the kernel panics that result from failure to allocate a new RX buffer, memory fragmentation can be reduced if the amsdu_8k capability is disabled as new buffers need only be of O(0), not O(2).

| * rtlwifi: Fix kernel panic resulting from RX buffer allocation failureLarry Finger2011-05-261-13/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To handle amsdu_8k capability, the PCI routine of this driver must allocate receive buffers of order 2. Under heavy load, this causes fragmentation of memory. The present code releases the current buffer before checking to see if a new one is availble. Recovery from allocation failures is not possible, which results in kernel panics. The fix is to reorder the code to check that a new buffer can be allocated before the old one is released. If not possible, the received frame is dropped and the old one is reused. Without this change, it is impossible to transfer a 2 GB file without a kernel panic.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In both trigger_scan and sched_scan operations, we were checking for the SSID length before assigning the value correctly. Since the memory was just kzalloc'ed, the check was always failing and SSID with over 32 characters were allowed to go through. This was causing a buffer overflow when copying the actual SSID to the proper place. This bug has been there since 2.6.29-rc4.

| * mwifiex: correct event header lengthYogesh Ashok Powar2011-05-261-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While decoding received event packet from firmware, 4 bytes of interface header are already removed unconditionally. So for handling event only 4 more bytes needs to be pulled. This is achieved by changing event header length to 4. Almost all the events, except BA stream related and AMSDU aggregation control events, do not have the payload in their event skb. Such events handling depends only on the event ID. This event ID is the first four bytes of the event skb, which is copied to a separate variable before pulling the skb header. Hence event handling worked only for those events that didn't have payload in event skb. This patch fixes the broken event path of the events with payload in their event skb without harming existing working event path for the events without payload.
