2014-08-12PCI: Remove DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE macro useBenoit Taine
We should prefer `struct pci_device_id` over `DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE` to meet kernel coding style guidelines. This issue was reported by checkpatch. A simplified version of the semantic patch that makes this change is as follows (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/): // <smpl> @@ identifier i; declarer name DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE; initializer z; @@ - DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE(i) + const struct pci_device_id i[] = z; // </smpl> [bhelgaas: add semantic patch] Signed-off-by: Benoit Taine <benoit.taine@lip6.fr> Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com>
2014-06-25p54: use request_firmware_direct() for optional EEPROM overrideLuis R. Rodriguez
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. This was found with the following SmPL patch. @ firmware_not_critical @ expression cf; expression config_file; expression dev; int ret; identifier l; statement S; @@ - ret = request_firmware(&cf, config_file, dev); + ret = request_firmware_direct(&cf, config_file, dev); if (ret < 0) { ... when != goto l; when != return ret; when any } else { ... release_firmware(cf); ... } Cc: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de> Cc: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@googlemail.com> Cc: linux-wireless@vger.kernel.org Cc: cocci@systeme.lip6.fr Signed-off-by: Luis R.

John W. Linville says: ==================== Regarding the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says: "The big work here is from Marcel and Johan. They did a lot of work in the L2CAP, HCI and MGMT layers. The most important ones are the addition of a new MGMT command to enable/disable LE advertisement and the introduction of the HCI user channel to allow applications to get directly and exclusive access to Bluetooth devices." As to the ath10k bits, Kalle says: "Bartosz dropped support for qca98xx hw1.0 hardware from ath10k, it's just too much to support it. Michal added support for the new firmware interface. Marek fixed WEP in AP and IBSS mode. Rest of the changes are minor fixes or cleanups." And also: "Major changes are: * throughput improvements including aligning the RX frames correctly and optimising HTT layer (Michal) * remove qca98xx hw1.0 support (Bartosz) * add support for firmware version 999.999.0.636 (Michal) * firmware htt statistics support (Kalle) * fix WEP in AP and IBSS mode (Marek) * fix a mutex unlock balance in debugfs file (Shafi) And of course there's a lot of smaller fixes and cleanup." For the wl12xx bits, Luca says: "Here are some patches intended for 3.13. Eliad is upstreaming a bunch of patches that have been pending in the internal tree. Mostly bugfixes and other small improvements." Along with that... Arend and friends bring us a batch of brcmfmac updates, Larry Finger offers some rtlwifi refactoring, and Sujith sends the usual batch of ath9k updates.

2012-08-06p54pci: convert driver to use asynchronous firmware loadingLarry Finger
Drivers that load firmware from their probe routine have problems with the latest versions of udev as they get timeouts while waiting for user space to start. The problem is fixed by using request_firmware_nowait() and delaying the start of mac80211 until the firmware is loaded. To prevent the possibility of the driver being unloaded while the firmware loading callback is still active, a completion queue entry is used.
