2013-07-18rtlwifi: Fix build errors for unusual casesLarry Finger
The present build configuration for the rtlwifi family of drivers will fail under two known conditions: (1) If rtlwifi is selected without selecting any of the dependent drivers, there are errors in the build. (2) If the PCI drivers are built into the kernel and the USB drivers are modules, or vice versa, there are missing globals. The first condition is fixed by never building rtlwifi unless at least one of the device drivers is selected. The second failure is fixed by splitting the PCI and USB codes out of rtlwifi, and creating their own mini drivers. If the drivers that use them are modules, they will also be modules. Although a number of files are touched by this patch, only Makefile and Kconfig have undergone significant changes. The only modifications to the other files were to export entry points needed by the new rtl_pci and rtl_usb units, or to rename two variables that had names that were likely to cause namespace collisions.

2013-04-01rtlwifi: Rework rtl_lps_leave() and rtl_lps_enter() to use work queueLarry Finger
In commit a5ffbe0, some of the calls to rtl_lps_leave() were switched to be called from a work queue to avoid a scheduling while atomic bug. This patch converts the remaining calls to use the work queue. In addition, the call to rtl_lps_enter() is also switched to the work queue. None of these newly converted calls had triggered the bug (yet), but this change make all of them fit a single pattern.

2013-03-18mac80211: pass queue bitmap to flush operationJohannes Berg

2013-01-03mac80211: split TX aggregation stop actionJohannes Berg
When TX aggregation is stopped, there are a few different cases: - connection with the peer was dropped - session stop was requested locally - session stop was requested by the peer - connection was dropped while a session is stopping The behaviour in these cases should be different, if the connection is dropped then the driver should drop all frames, otherwise the frames may continue to be transmitted, aggregated in the case of a locally requested session stop or unaggregated in the case of the peer requesting session stop. Split these different cases so that the driver can act accordingly; however, treat local and remote stop the same way and ask the driver to not send frames as aggregated packets any more. In the case of connection drop, the stop callback the driver is otherwise supposed to call is no longer required. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2012-06-06wireless: Remove casts to same typeJoe Perches
Adding casts of objects to the same type is unnecessary and confusing for a human reader. For example, this cast: int y; int *p = (int *)&y; I used the coccinelle script below to find and remove these unnecessary casts. I manually removed the conversions this script produces of casts with __force, __iomem and __user. @@ type T; T *p; @@ - (T *)p + p Neatened the mwifiex_deauthenticate_infra function which was doing odd things with array pointers and not using is_zero_ether_addr.

2012-01-30rtlwifi: Convert to asynchronous firmware loadLarry Finger
This patch addresses a kernel bugzilla report and two recent mail threads. The kernel bugzilla report is https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42632, which reports a udev timeout on boot. The first mail thread, which was on LKML (http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/ linux/kernel/1112.3/00965.html) was for a WARNING that occurs after a suspend/resume cycle for rtl8192cu. The scond mail thread (http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=132655490826766&w=2) concerned changes in udev that break drivers that delay while firmware is loaded on modprobe. This patch converts all rtlwifi-based drivers to use the asynchronous firmware loading mechanism. Drivers rtl8192ce, rtl8192cu and rtl8192de share a common callback routine. Driver rtl8192se needs different handling of the firmware, thus it has its own code. Signed-off-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> Cc: Stable <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

2011-02-25mac80211: make tx() operation return voidJohannes Berg
The return value of the tx operation is commonly misused by drivers, leading to errors. All drivers will drop frames if they fail to TX the frame, and they must also properly manage the queues (if they didn't, mac80211 would already warn). Removing the ability for drivers to return a BUSY value also allows significant cleanups of the TX TX handling code in mac80211. Note that this also fixes a bug in ath9k_htc, the old "return -1" there was wrong.

2011-01-19mac80211: track receiver's aggregation reorder buffer sizeJohannes Berg
The aggregation code currently doesn't implement the buffer size negotiation. It will always request a max buffer size (which is fine, if a little pointless, as the mac80211 code doesn't know and might just use 0 instead), but if the peer requests a smaller size it isn't possible to honour this request. In order to fix this, look at the buffer size in the addBA response frame, keep track of it and pass it to the driver in the ampdu_action callback when called with the IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_OPERATIONAL action. That way the driver can limit the number of subframes in aggregates appropriately. Note that this doesn't fix any drivers apart from the addition of the new argument -- they all need to be updated separately to use this variable!
