Newer devices have 20 (5000 series) or 30 (6000 series) hardware queues, rather than the 16 that 4965 had. This was added to the driver a long time ago, but improperly: the queue registers for the higher queues aren't just continuations of the registers for the first 16 queues, they are in other places. Therefore, the hardware would lock up when trying to activate queue 16 or above and the device would have to be restarted. Thanks goes to Emmanuel who identified this and told me how the queue programming should be done. Note that we don't use queues 20 and higher today and doing so needs more work than this.

Driver incorrectly validates command completion: instead of waiting for a command to be acknowledged it continues execution. Most of the time driver gets acknowledge of the command completion in a tasklet before it executes the next one. But sometimes it sends the next command before it gets acknowledge for the previous one. In such a case one of the following error messages appear in the log: Failed to send SYSTEM_CONFIG: Already sending a command. Failed to send ASSOCIATE: Already sending a command. Failed to send TX_POWER: Already sending a command. After that you need to reload the driver to get it working again. This bug occurs during roaming (reported by Sam Varshavchik) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=738508 and machine booting (reported by Tom Gundersen and Mads Kiilerich) https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/28097 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=802106 This patch doesn't fix the delay issue during firmware load.

The 'ath9k_hw_update_regulatory_maxpower' helper function has been introduced by commit a55f8588 (ath9k_hw: Cleanup TX power calculation for AR9287). Updating of the max_power_level value has been moved into the helper function in that change, however the removed code from 'ath9k_hw_ar9287_set_txpower' has not been replaced with a call of the new helper function. Due to that missing call, retrieving tx power for 2x2 and 3x3 chainmask is not handled properly. During the calculation of the tx power for 2x2 and 3x3 chainmasks the values are reduced. Those reductions must be compensated during retrieving. Fix this by adding the missing call of the helper function.

Gabor Juhos authored
In order to unifying regulatory limit handling commit ca2c68cc (ath9k_hw: clean up tx power handling) introduced a new helper function 'ath9k_hw_apply_txpower', and the direct calls of 'ah->eep_ops->set_txpower' has been replaced by a call of the helper function. This caused a change in the behaviour of the 'ath9k_hw_set_txpowerlimit' function. The purpose of that function is to calculate and store the rate txpower table and the regulatory limit without touching the hardware registers. Before the commit, the 'test' parameter of the function was passed to the 'ah->eep_ops->set_txpower'. Now the calling of the 'set_txpower' function happens indirectly through 'ath9k_hw_apply_txpower', so the 'test' argument of the 'set_txpower' is always 'false'. This patch restores the original behaviour of 'ath9k_hw_set_txpowerlimit' by adding a new argument to 'ath9k_hw_apply_txpower.'

Cooked monitor rx was recently changed to use ieee80211_add_rx_radiotap_header instead of generating only limited radiotap information. ieee80211_add_rx_radiotap_header assumes that FCS info is still present if the hardware supports receiving it, however when cooked monitor rx packets are processed, FCS info has already been stripped.

bcma should check for a fallback sprom every time it can not find a sprom on the card itself or a normal external sprom mapped into the memory of the chip. When otp sprom support was introduced it tried to read out the sprom from the wireless chip also if no otp sprom was available. This caused a Data bus error in bcma_sprom_get() when reading out the sprom for the SoC. This fixes a regression introduced in commit: commit 10d8493c Author: Arend van Spriel <arend@broadcom.com> Date: Tue Mar 6 15:50:48 2012 +0100 bcma: add support for on-chip OTP memory used for SPROM storage This patch was tested on a Netgear WNDR3400 (Broadcom BCM4718 SoC).

There have been reports about not being able to use access-points on channel 12 and 13 or having connectivity issues when these channels were part of the selected regulatory domain. Upon switching to these channels the brcmsmac driver suspends the transmit dma fifos. This patch resumes them upon handing over the first received beacon to mac80211. This patch is to be applied to the stable tree for kernel versions 3.2 and 3.3.

The current version of rtlwifi for USB operations uses kmalloc to acquire a 32-bit buffer for each read of the device. When _usb_read_sync() is called with the rcu_lock held, the result is a "sleeping function called from invalid context" BUG. This is reported for two cases in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42775. The first case has the lock originating from within rtlwifi and could be fixed by rearranging the locking; however, the second originates from within mac80211. The kmalloc() call is removed from _usb_read_sync() by creating a ring buffer pointer in the private area and allocating the buffer data in the probe routine.

I have a new optimized x86 "strncpy_from_user()" that will use these same helper functions for all the same reasons the name lookup code uses them. This is preparation for that. This moves them into an architecture-specific header file. It's architecture-specific for two reasons: - some of the functions are likely to want architecture-specific implementations. Even if the current code happens to be "generic" in the sense that it should work on any little-endian machine, it's likely that the "multiply by a big constant and shift" implementation is less than optimal for an architecture that has a guaranteed fast bit count instruction, for example. - I expect that if architectures like sparc want to start playing around with this, we'll need to abstract out a few more details (in particular the actual unaligned accesses). So we're likely to have more architecture-specific stuff if non-x86 architectures start using this. (and if it turns out that non-x86 architectures don't start using this, then having it in an architecture-specific header is still the right thing to do, of course) Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Fix from Eric Dumazet. 11) do_tcp_sendpage() unloads the send queue way too fast, because it invokes tcp_push() when it shouldn't. Let the natural sequence generated by the splice paths, and the assosciated MSG_MORE settings, guide the tcp_push() calls. Otherwise what goes out of TCP is spaghetti and doesn't batch effectively into GSO/TSO clusters. From Eric Dumazet. 12) Once we put a SKB into either the netlink receiver's queue or a socket error queue, it can be consumed and freed up, therefore we cannot touch it after queueing it like that. Fixes from Eric Dumazet. 13) PPP has this annoying behavior in that for every transmit call it immediately stops the TX queue, then calls down into the next layer to transmit the PPP frame. But if that next layer can take it immediately, it just un-stops the TX queue right before returning from the transmit method. Besides being useless work, it makes several facilities unusable, in particular things like the equalizers. Well behaved devices should only stop the TX queue when they really are full, and in PPP's case when it gets backlogged to the downstream device. David Woodhouse therefore fixed PPP to not stop the TX queue until it's downstream can't take data any more. 14) IFF_UNICAST_FLT got accidently lost in some recent stmmac driver changes, re-add. From Marc Kleine-Budde. 15) Fix link flaps in ixgbe, from Eric W. Multanen. 16) Descriptor writeback fixes in e1000e from Matthew Vick. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: (47 commits) net: fix a race in sock_queue_err_skb() netlink: fix races after skb queueing doc, net: Update ndo_start_xmit return type and values doc, net: Remove instruction to set net_device::trans_start doc, net: Update netdev operation names doc, net: Update documentation of synchronisation for TX multiqueue doc, net: Remove obsolete reference to dev->poll ethtool: Remove exception to the requirement of holding RTNL lock MAINTAINERS: update for Marvell Ethernet drivers bonding: properly unset current_arp_slave on slave link up phonet: Check input from user before allocating tcp: tcp_sendpages() should call tcp_push() once ipv6: fix array index in ip6_mc_add_src() mlx4: allocate just enough pages instead of always 4 pages stmmac: re-add IFF_UNICAST_FLT for dwmac1000 bnx2x: Clear MDC/MDIO warning message bnx2x: Fix BCM57711+BCM84823 link issue bnx2x: Clear BCM84833 LED after fan failure bnx2x: Fix BCM84833 PHY FW version presentation bnx2x: Fix link issue for BCM8727 boards. ...
