Correct channel setting function must be used for AR2317. When I tested ahb patch on bullet2 all seemed to work fine, but it couldn't connect another host (using ibss for example). During an analysis I observed that it's transmitting on another channel. I looked into madwifi code and understood that the problem is in channel setting function. So atheros RF2317 not fully handled in the current ath5k version and must be patched. Signed-off-by:

Low level driver could pass rx frames to us after disassociate, what can lead to run conn_mon_timer by ieee80211_sta_rx_notify(). That is obviously wrong, but nothing happens until we unload modules and resources are used after free. If kernel debugging is enabled following warning could be observed: WARNING: at lib/debugobjects.c:259 debug_print_object+0x65/0x70() Hardware name: HP xw8600 Workstation ODEBUG: free active (active state 0) object type: timer_list Modules linked in: iwlagn(-) iwlcore mac80211 cfg80211 aes_x86_64 aes_generic fuse cpufreq_ondemand acpi_cpufreq freq_table mperf xt_physdev ipt_REJECT nf_conntrack_ipv4 nf_defrag_ipv4 iptable_filter ip_tables ip6t_REJECT nf_conntrack_ipv6 nf_defrag_ipv6 xt_state nf_conntrack ip6table_filter ip6_tables ipv6 ext3 jbd dm_mirror dm_region_hash dm_log dm_mod uinput hp_wmi sparse_keymap sg wmi arc4 microcode serio_raw ecb tg3 shpchp rfkill ext4 mbcache jbd2 sr_mod cdrom sd_mod crc_t10dif firewire_ohci firewire_core crc_itu_t mptsas mptscsih mptbase scsi_transport_sas ahci libahci pata_acpi ata_generic ata_piix floppy nouveau ttm drm_kms_helper drm i2c_algo_bit i2c_core video [last unloaded: cfg80211] Pid: 13827, comm: rmmod Tainted: G W 2.6.38-rc4-wl+ #22 Call Trace: [<ffffffff810649cf>] ? warn_slowpath_common+0x7f/0xc0 [<ffffffff81064ac6>] ? warn_slowpath_fmt+0x46/0x50 [<ffffffff81226fc5>] ? debug_print_object+0x65/0x70 [<ffffffff81227625>] ? debug_check_no_obj_freed+0x125/0x210 [<ffffffff8109ebd7>] ? debug_check_no_locks_freed+0xf7/0x170 [<ffffffff81156092>] ? kfree+0xc2/0x2f0 [<ffffffff813ec5c5>] ? netdev_release+0x45/0x60 [<ffffffff812f1067>] ? device_release+0x27/0xa0 [<ffffffff81216ddd>] ? kobject_release+0x8d/0x1a0 [<ffffffff81216d50>] ? kobject_release+0x0/0x1a0 [<ffffffff812183b7>] ? kref_put+0x37/0x70 [<ffffffff81216c57>] ? kobject_put+0x27/0x60 [<ffffffff813d5d1b>] ? netdev_run_todo+0x1ab/0x270 [<ffffffff813e771e>] ? rtnl_unlock+0xe/0x10 [<ffffffffa0581188>] ? ieee80211_unregister_hw+0x58/0x120 [mac80211] [<ffffffffa0377ed7>] ? iwl_pci_remove+0xdb/0x22a [iwlagn] [<ffffffff8123cde2>] ? pci_device_remove+0x52/0x120 [<ffffffff812f5205>] ? __device_release_driver+0x75/0xe0 [<ffffffff812f5348>] ? driver_detach+0xd8/0xe0 [<ffffffff812f4111>] ? bus_remove_driver+0x91/0x100 [<ffffffff812f5b62>] ? driver_unregister+0x62/0xa0 [<ffffffff8123d194>] ? pci_unregister_driver+0x44/0xa0 [<ffffffffa0377df5>] ? iwl_exit+0x15/0x1c [iwlagn] [<ffffffff810ab492>] ? sys_delete_module+0x1a2/0x270 [<ffffffff81498889>] ? trace_hardirqs_on_thunk+0x3a/0x3f [<ffffffff8100bf42>] ? system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Acked-by:

The DMA latency issue is observed only in Intel pinetrail platforms but in the driver we had a default PM-QOS value of 55. This caused unnecessary power consumption and battery drain in other platforms. Remove the pm-qos thing in the driver code and address the throughput issue in Intel pinetrail platfroms in user space using any one of the scripts in below links: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/mcgrof/scripts/cpudmalatency.c http://johannes.sipsolutions.net/files/netlatency.c.txt More details can be found in the following bugzilla link: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27532 This reverts the following commits: 98c316e3 4dc3530d 10598c12Signed-off-by:

Patch fixes: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=654599 Many users report very low speed problem on 3945 devices, this patch fixes problem, but only for some of them. For unknown reason, sometimes after hw scanning, device is not able to receive frames at high rate. Since plcp health check may request hw scan to "reset radio", performance problem start to be observable after update kernel to .35, where plcp check was introduced. Bug reporter confirmed that removing plcp check fixed problem for him. Reported-and-tested-by:

Using skb_header_cloned to check if it's safe to write to the skb is not enough - mac80211 also touches the tailroom of the skb. Initially this check was only used to increase a counter, however this commit changed the code to also skip skb data reallocation if no extra head/tailroom was needed: commit 4cd06a34 mac80211: skip unnecessary pskb_expand_head calls It added a regression at least with iwl3945, which is fixed by this patch.

When the off-channel TX is done with remain-on-channel offloaded to hardware, the reported cookie is wrong as in that case we shouldn't use the SKB as the cookie but need to instead use the corresponding r-o-c cookie (XOR'ed with 2 to prevent API mismatches). Fix this by keeping track of the hw_roc_skb pointer just for the status processing and use the correct cookie to report in this case. We can't use the hw_roc_skb pointer itself because it is NULL'ed when the frame is transmitted to prevent it being used twice. This fixes a bug where the P2P state machine in the supplicant gets stuck because it never gets a correct result for its transmitted frame. Signed-off-by:

This patch fixes a minor issue that two connection responses will be sent for one L2CAP connection request. If the L2CAP connection request is first blocked due to security reason and responded with reason "security block", the state of the connection remains BT_CONNECT2. If a pairing procedure completes successfully before the ACL connection is down, local host will send another connection complete response.

While unloading the driver, the ps_usecount is incremented before configuring gpio registers in deinit_device. But it is failed to restore the ps_usecount after that. The problem is that the chip is forcibly moved to FULL SLEEP by radio_disable when mac80211 is reporting as idle though ps_usecount is not zero. This patch retores ps_usecount properly and ensures that the chip is always moved to full sleep only if ps usage count is zero which also helps in debugging deadbeef on multivif case. And also fixes the following warning. ath: DMA failed to stop in 10 ms AR_CR=0xdeadbeef AR_DIAG_SW=0xdeadbeef ath: Could not stop RX, we could be confusing the DMA engine when we start RX up ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: at drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/recv.c:536 ath_stoprecv+0xf4/0x100 [ath9k]() Cc: stable@kernel.org Cc: Paul Stewart <pstew@google.com> Signed-off-by:

We do not kill any scheduled tasklets when stopping device, that may cause usage of resources after free. Disable interrupts, kill tasklets and then works in correct order. Cc: stable@kernel.org Tested-by:

We do not kill any scheduled tasklets when stopping device, that may cause usage of resources after free. Moreover we enable interrupts in tasklet function, so we could potentially end with interrupts enabled when driver is not ready to receive them. I think patch should fix Ben's kernel crash from: http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=129438358921501&w=2 Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by:

The ath5k version of ieee80211_generic_frame_duration() returns an __le16 for standard modes but a cpu-endian int for turbo/half/ quarter rates. Make it always return cpu-endian values. Signed-off-by:

Review spotted a problem with the error handling in ath5k_hw_dma_stop: a successful return from ath5k_hw_stop_tx_dma will be treated as an error, so we always bail out of the loop after processing a single active queue. As a result, we may not actually stop some queues during reset. Signed-off-by:

When the source code from Realtek was prepared for kernel inclusion, some routines were refactored to reduce the level of indentation. This patch repairs errors introduced in that process. Signed-off-by:

Some drivers (e.g. ath9k) do not always disable beacons when they're supposed to. When an interface is changed using the change_interface op, the mode specific sdata part is in an undefined state and trying to get a beacon at this point can produce weird crashes. To fix this, add a check for ieee80211_sdata_running before using anything from the sdata. Signed-off-by:

In drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/pci.c::_rtl_pci_rx_interrupt() we call dev_alloc_skb(), which may fail and return NULL, but we do not check the returned value against NULL before dereferencing the returned pointer. This may lead to a NULL pointer dereference which means we'll crash - not good. In a separate call to dev_alloc_skb(), the debug level is changed so that the failure message will always be logged.

There are several places where ath_reset() was called without proper calls to ath9k_ps_wakeup/ath9k_ps_restore. To fix this, add those calls directly to ath_reset and drop them from callers where it makes sense. Also add them to the config callback around ath_update_txpow to fix a crash that happens when the tx power changed before any vif is brought up. Signed-off-by:

AR9003's PAPRD was enabled prematurely, and is causing some large discrepancies on throughput and network connectivity. For example downlink (RX) throughput against an AR9280 AP can vary widlely from 43-73 Mbit/s while disabling this gets AR9382 (2x2) up to around 93 Mbit/s in a 2.4 GHz HT20 setup.

For all the new devices, the sku information should read from EEPROM but for legacy devices such as 4965, appearly the EEPROM does not contain the necessary information. so skip the read from EEPROM and go back to use software configuration. Reported-by:

The conn->sec_level value is supposed to represent the current level of security that the connection has. However, by assigning to it before requesting authentication it will have the wrong value during the authentication procedure. To fix this a pending_sec_level variable is added which is used to track the desired security level while making sure that sec_level always represents the current level of security. Signed-off-by:

When there is an existing connection l2cap_check_security needs to be called to ensure that the security level of the new socket is fulfilled. Normally l2cap_do_start takes care of this, but that function doesn't get called for SOCK_RAW type sockets. This patch adds the necessary l2cap_check_security call to the appropriate branch in l2cap_do_connect. Signed-off-by:
