2012-10-18wireless: drivers: make use of WLAN_EID_VENDOR_SPECIFICArend van Spriel
The include file linux/ieee80211.h contains three definitions for the same thing in enum ieee80211_eid due to historic changes: /* Information Element IDs */ enum ieee80211_eid { : WLAN_EID_WPA = 221, WLAN_EID_GENERIC = 221, WLAN_EID_VENDOR_SPECIFIC = 221, : }; The standard refers to this as "vendor specific" element so the other two definitions are better not used. This patch changes the wireless drivers to use one definition, ie. WLAN_EID_VENDOR_SPECIFIC.

Pull networking changes from David Miller: 1) GRE now works over ipv6, from Dmitry Kozlov. 2) Make SCTP more network namespace aware, from Eric Biederman. 3) TEAM driver now works with non-ethernet devices, from Jiri Pirko. 4) Make openvswitch network namespace aware, from Pravin B Shelar. 5) IPV6 NAT implementation, from Patrick McHardy. 6) Server side support for TCP Fast Open, from Jerry Chu and others. 7) Packet BPF filter supports MOD and XOR, from Eric Dumazet and Daniel Borkmann. 8) Increate the loopback default MTU to 64K, from Eric Dumazet. 9) Use a per-task rather than per-socket page fragment allocator for outgoing networking traffic. This benefits processes that have very many mostly idle sockets, which is quite common. From Eric Dumazet. 10) Use up to 32K for page fragment allocations, with fallbacks to smaller sizes when higher order page allocations fail. Benefits are a) less segments for driver to process b) less calls to page allocator c) less waste of space. From Eric Dumazet. 11) Allow GRO to be used on GRE tunnels, from Eric Dumazet. 12) VXLAN device driver, one way to handle VLAN issues such as the limitation of 4096 VLAN IDs yet still have some level of isolation. From Stephen Hemminger. 13) As usual there is a large boatload of driver changes, with the scale perhaps tilted towards the wireless side this time around.

2012-10-02Merge branch 'for-3.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wqLinus Torvalds
Pull workqueue changes from Tejun Heo: "This is workqueue updates for v3.7-rc1. A lot of activities this round including considerable API and behavior cleanups. * delayed_work combines a timer and a work item. The handling of the timer part has always been a bit clunky leading to confusing cancelation API with weird corner-case behaviors. delayed_work is updated to use new IRQ safe timer and cancelation now works as expected. * Another deficiency of delayed_work was lack of the counterpart of mod_timer() which led to cancel+queue combinations or open-coded timer+work usages. mod_delayed_work[_on]() are added. These two delayed_work changes make delayed_work provide interface and behave like timer which is executed with process context. * A work item could be executed concurrently on multiple CPUs, which is rather unintuitive and made flush_work() behavior confusing and half-broken under certain circumstances. This problem doesn't exist for non-reentrant workqueues. While non-reentrancy check isn't free, the overhead is incurred only when a work item bounces across different CPUs and even in simulated pathological scenario the overhead isn't too high. All workqueues are made non-reentrant. This removes the distinction between flush_[delayed_]work() and flush_[delayed_]_work_sync(). The former is now as strong as the latter and the specified work item is guaranteed to have finished execution of any previous queueing on return. * In addition to the various bug fixes, Lai redid and simplified CPU hotplug handling significantly. * Joonsoo introduced system_highpri_wq and used it during CPU hotplug. There are two merge commits - one to pull in IRQ safe timer from tip/timers/core and the other to pull in CPU hotplug fixes from wq/for-3.6-fixes as Lai's hotplug restructuring depended on them." Fixed a number of trivial conflicts, but the more interesting conflicts were silent ones where the deprecated interfaces had been used by new code in the merge window, and thus didn't cause any real data conflicts. Tejun pointed out a few of them, I fixed a couple more. * 'for-3.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq: (46 commits) workqueue: remove spurious WARN_ON_ONCE(in_irq()) from try_to_grab_pending() workqueue: use cwq_set_max_active() helper for workqueue_set_max_active() workqueue: introduce cwq_set_max_active() helper for thaw_workqueues() workqueue: remove @delayed from cwq_dec_nr_in_flight() workqueue: fix possible stall on try_to_grab_pending() of a delayed work item workqueue: use hotcpu_notifier() for workqueue_cpu_down_callback() workqueue: use __cpuinit instead of __devinit for cpu callbacks workqueue: rename manager_mutex to assoc_mutex workqueue: WORKER_REBIND is no longer necessary for idle rebinding workqueue: WORKER_REBIND is no longer necessary for busy rebinding workqueue: reimplement idle worker rebinding workqueue: deprecate __cancel_delayed_work() workqueue: reimplement cancel_delayed_work() using try_to_grab_pending() workqueue: use mod_delayed_work() instead of __cancel + queue workqueue: use irqsafe timer for delayed_work workqueue: clean up delayed_work initializers and add missing one workqueue: make deferrable delayed_work initializer names consistent workqueue: cosmetic whitespace updates for macro definitions workqueue: deprecate system_nrt[_freezable]_wq workqueue: deprecate flush[_delayed]_work_sync() ...

2012-08-13workqueue: use mod_delayed_work() instead of cancel + queueTejun Heo
Convert delayed_work users doing cancel_delayed_work() followed by queue_delayed_work() to mod_delayed_work(). Most conversions are straight-forward. Ones worth mentioning are, * drivers/edac/edac_mc.c: edac_mc_workq_setup() converted to always use mod_delayed_work() and cancel loop in edac_mc_reset_delay_period() is dropped. * drivers/platform/x86/thinkpad_acpi.c: No need to remember whether watchdog is active or not. @fan_watchdog_active and related code dropped. * drivers/power/charger-manager.c: Seemingly a lot of delayed_work_pending() abuse going on here. [delayed_]work_pending() are unsynchronized and racy when used like this. I converted one instance in fullbatt_handler(). Please conver the rest so that it invokes workqueue APIs for the intended target state rather than trying to game work item pending state transitions. e.g. if timer should be modified - call mod_delayed_work(), canceled - call cancel_delayed_work[_sync](). * drivers/thermal/thermal_sys.c: thermal_zone_device_set_polling() simplified. Note that round_jiffies() calls in this function are meaningless. round_jiffies() work on absolute jiffies not delta delay used by delayed_work. v2: Tomi pointed out that __cancel_delayed_work() users can't be safely converted to mod_delayed_work(). They could be calling it from irq context and if that happens while delayed_work_timer_fn() is running, it could deadlock. __cancel_delayed_work() users are dropped.

We separate device bring up and registration with network stack to avoid the problem. After that Ben Hutchings' fix can be applied to fix the bug.

In 'net' we added a bug fix to make iwlwifi report a more accurate skb->truesize but this conflicted with RX path changes that happened meanwhile in net-next. In e1000e a conflict arose in the validation code for settings of adapter->itr. 'net-next' had more sophisticated logic so that logic was used. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2012-04-23ipw2200: Fix race condition in the command completion acknowledgeStanislav Yakovlev
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. But at least device now works as usual after boot. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Stanislav Yakovlev <stas.yakovlev@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

Driver doesn't report its supported cipher suites through cfg80211 interface. It still uses wext interface and probably will not work through nl80211, but will at least correctly advertise supported features.
