| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | iwconfig txpower can now be used to set tx power to fixed or auto. If set to auto the default firmware settings are used. The command CMD_802_11_PA_CFG is only sent to older firmware, as Dan Williams noted the command was no longer supported in firmware V9+.

| * iwlwifi: fix searching for best rate in new search columnGuy Cohen2008-09-111-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a bug in Rate Scaling. When moving from SISO to MIMO we need to choose the lowest higher rate, instead of choosing the highest in MIMO. No doing this can lead to a high packet loss in the highest rate in MIMO, leading not to move MIMO although lower in MIMO could give a better TPT.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch makes usage of the results from disconnected antenna alg to know how many antennas are connected. It also synchronizes between the chain noise alg and the W/A that disables power management during association. All the antennas must be enables during the chain noise algorithm. Hence, power management is restored only after the completion of the algorithm. In the future, we will need to update the AP that we don't support MIMO if there is only one antenna connected. We also need to update the rate scaling algorithm.

Previously, broken hardreset could go unnoticed as it wasn't used during probing but when something goes wrong or after hotplug the problem will surface and bite hard. OSDL bug 11195 reports that sata_nv generic flavor falls into this category. Hardreset itself succeeds but PHY stays offline after hardreset. I tried longer debounce timing but the result was the same. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11195 So, it seems we'll have to drop hardreset from the generic flavor.

Jeff added the Marvell device identifiers to the ahci driver without making the AHCI driver handle the PATA port. This means a lot of users can't use current kernels and in most distro cases can't even install. This has been going on since March 2008 for the 6121 Marvell, and late 2007 for the 6145!!! This was all pointed out at the time and repeatedly ignored. Bugs assigned to Jeff about this are ignored also. To quote Jeff in email > "Just switch the order of 'ahci' and 'pata_marvell' in > /etc/modprobe.conf, then use Fedora's tools regenerate the initrd. > See? It's not rocket science, and the current configuration can be > easily made to work for Fedora users." (Which isn't trivial, isn't end user, shouldn't be needed, and as it usually breaks at install time is in fact impossible) To quote Jeff in August 2007 > " mv-ahci-pata > Marvell 6121/6141 PATA support. Needs fixing in the 'PATA controller > command' area before it is usable, and can go upstream." Only he add the ids anyway later and caused regressions, adding a further id in March causing more regresions. The actual fix for the moment is very simple. If the user has included the pata_marvell driver let it drive the ports. If they've only selected for SATA support give them the AHCI driver which will run the port a fraction faster. Allow the user to control this decision via ahci.marvell_enable as a module parameter so that distributions can ship 'it works' defaults and smarter users (or config tools) can then flip it over it desired.

This results in less pointer hopping when many fingers are on the trackpad. In addition, a finger counting method based on pressure information from all fingers is introduced. Together with a pressure hysteresis window, this yields a more stable counting of the number of fingers on the trackpad.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current check for monotonicity is way too weak: Andreas Mohr reports ( http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/8/10/77 ) that on one of his test systems the current check only triggers in 50% of all cases, leading to catastrophic timer behaviour. To fix this issue, expand the check for monotonicity by doing ten consecutive tests instead of one.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On all hardware (some Intel ICH4, PIIX4 and PIIX4E chipsets) affected by a hardware errata there's about a 4.2% chance that initialization of the ACPI PMTMR fails. On those chipsets, we need to read out the timer value at least three times to get a correct result, for every once in a while (i.e. within a 3 ns window every 69.8 ns) the read returns a bogus result. During normal operation we work around this issue, but during initialization reading a bogus value may lead to -EINVAL even though the hardware is usable. Thanks to Andreas Mohr for spotting this issue.

| * | | | drivers/mmc/card/block.c: fix refcount leak in mmc_block_open()Andrew Morton2008-09-051-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | mmc_block_open() increments md->usage although it returns with -EROFS when default mounting a MMC/SD card with write protect switch on. This reference counting bug prevents /dev/mmcblkX from being released on card removal, and situation worsen with reinsertion until the minor number range runs out.
