Measuring time between _end_ of CTS-to-self and _end_ of datapacket (with a prism54 board and mac80211 hacked to let the MAC timestamp stay untouched in the radiotap header) resulted in about 300uS, while the datapacket itself should be by far shorter (less than 100uS) and IFS should be SIFS (10uS). This measure was confirmed whith a scope: about 250uS IFS has been seen between the two packets. This situation causes the CTS-to-self protection mechanism to work incorrectly due to the NAV expiring during, or even before beginning, the packet transmission, and it also causes the performances to be anyway reduced due to time waste. This problem has been seen at every packet TXed with CTS-to-self enabled on rtl8185 board. rtl8187se seems not affected (and rtl8180, being a 802.11b card, does not have CTS-to-self mechaninsm). This patch fixes this by adding a magic register write, making the board wait for correct SIFS after CTS-to-self packet.

BSSID register was written with six byte-writes. It seems that, similarly to what happens with MAC registers, they needs to be written with one 16-bit and one 32-bit writes, otherwise the write does not work. The byte write didn't work only on my rtl8185, while it worked on rtl8180 and rtl8187se, BTW since there are probably a number of different ASIC revisions out of there, I let the change to affect all cards. It shouldn't hurt anyway. Signed-off-by: Andrea Merello <andrea.merello@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

The patch fixes a couple of issues: - absence of deallocation of rsi_dev->rx_usb_urb[0] in the driver; - potential NULL pointer dereference because of lack of checks for memory allocation success in rsi_init_usb_interface(). By the way, it makes rsi_probe() returning error code instead of 1 and fixes comments regarding returning values. Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).

Earlier the listen interval is used to decide switching between operating and off-channels during bgscan and to improve throughput, the listen interval is reduced to 1. After optimiztion in scan state machine, listen period is not used for decision making and hence reverting it back to original value.

The p54 driver uses request_firmware() twice, once for actual firmware and then another time for an optional user overide on EEPROM, 3826.eeprom. The custom EEPROM is optional but if not present we'll introduce an extra lag of 60 seconds with udev present. Annotate we don't want udev nonsense here to avoid the lag in case its not present.

The users of the fwil put an error message in the log so there is no need to do the same in the lower level functions in fwil when the firmware on the device returns an error. Some errors can be ignored for the driver to function and this will avoid driver users to point at the low-level error message as potential bug.

Applying ++ to a bool is equivalent to setting it true, regardless of its initial value (bools are not uint1_t). Hence the function wl_get_vif_state_all can only ever return true/false. The only in-tree caller uses its return value as a boolean. So update its return type, and since the list traversal and bit testing have no side effects, just return true immediately. Its return value tells if any vif is in the specified state, so also rename it to brcmf_get_vif_state_any.
