2012-05-18USB: Disable hub-initiated LPM for comms devices.Sarah Sharp
Hub-initiated LPM is not good for USB communications devices. Comms devices should be able to tell when their link can go into a lower power state, because they know when an incoming transmission is finished. Ideally, these devices would slam their links into a lower power state, using the device-initiated LPM, after finishing the last packet of their data transfer. If we enable the idle timeouts for the parent hubs to enable hub-initiated LPM, we will get a lot of useless LPM packets on the bus as the devices reject LPM transitions when they're in the middle of receiving data. Worse, some devices might blindly accept the hub-initiated LPM and power down their radios while they're in the middle of receiving a transmission. The Intel Windows folks are disabling hub-initiated LPM for all USB communications devices under a xHCI USB 3.0 host. In order to keep the Linux behavior as close as possible to Windows, we need to do the same in Linux. Set the disable_hub_initiated_lpm flag for for all USB communications drivers. I know there aren't currently any USB 3.0 devices that implement these class specifications, but we should be ready if they do.

2012-05-03iwlwifi: fix skb truesize underestimationEric Dumazet
By default, iwlwifi uses order-1 pages (8 KB) to store incoming frames, but doesnt say so in skb->truesize. This makes very possible to exhaust kernel memory since these skb evade normal socket memory accounting. As struct ieee80211_hdr is going to be pulled before calling IP stack, there is no need to use dev_alloc_skb() to reserve NET_SKB_PAD bytes. alloc_skb() is ok in this driver, allowing more tailroom. Pull beginning of frame in skb header, in the hope we can reuse order-1 pages in the driver immediately for small frames and reduce their truesize to the minimum (linear skbs) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Cc: Wey-Yi Guy <wey-yi.w.guy@intel.com> Cc: "John W.

2012-05-02Revert "ath9k_hw: Fix incorrect spur_freq_sd for AR9003"Rajkumar Manoharan
This reverts commit a844adfd7bee4edc66d337de6c33b348e83552a8. The commit a844adfd is degrading rx sensitivity of lower rate in HT40 mode and it is confirmed that reverting the change is improving rx sensitivity. spur_freq_sd (for self-corr in AGC) is defined with respect to the center of each 20MHz channel while spur_phase_delta (for self-corr in Rx and spur data filter) is defined with respect to the center of current RF channel. So in short, we need to subtract spur_freq_sd (for self-corr in AGC) by the offset between the center of primary20 and the center of RF channel in SW. This offset could be +/10 MHz for dynamic 40.

Currently SDIO glue frees it's own structure before calling wl1251_free_hw(), which in turn calls ieee80211_unregister_hw(). The later call may result in a need to communicate with the chip to stop it (as it happens now if the interface is still up before rmmod), which means calls are made back to the glue, resulting in freed memory access.

2012-04-24iwlwifi: fix hardware queue programmingJohannes Berg
Newer devices have 20 (5000 series) or 30 (6000 series) hardware queues, rather than the 16 that 4965 had. This was added to the driver a long time ago, but improperly: the queue registers for the higher queues aren't just continuations of the registers for the first 16 queues, they are in other places. Therefore, the hardware would lock up when trying to activate queue 16 or above and the device would have to be restarted. Thanks goes to Emmanuel who identified this and told me how the queue programming should be done. Note that we don't use queues 20 and higher today and doing so needs more work than this.

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.

2012-04-23ath9k: fix tx power settings for AR9287Gabor Juhos
The 'ath9k_hw_update_regulatory_maxpower' helper function has been introduced by commit a55f858852e4345d0a31af593c46738ca8614bff (ath9k_hw: Cleanup TX power calculation for AR9287). Updating of the max_power_level value has been moved into the helper function in that change, however the removed code from 'ath9k_hw_ar9287_set_txpower' has not been replaced with a call of the new helper function. Due to that missing call, retrieving tx power for 2x2 and 3x3 chainmask is not handled properly. During the calculation of the tx power for 2x2 and 3x3 chainmasks the values are reduced. Those reductions must be compensated during retrieving. Fix this by adding the missing call of the helper function.

2012-04-23ath9k: add an extra boolean parameter to ath9k_hw_apply_txpowerGabor Juhos
In order to unifying regulatory limit handling commit ca2c68cc7bc80fc4504fb420df04cce99c9ee6ec (ath9k_hw: clean up tx power handling) introduced a new helper function 'ath9k_hw_apply_txpower', and the direct calls of 'ah->eep_ops->set_txpower' has been replaced by a call of the helper function. This caused a change in the behaviour of the 'ath9k_hw_set_txpowerlimit' function. The purpose of that function is to calculate and store the rate txpower table and the regulatory limit without touching the hardware registers. Before the commit, the 'test' parameter of the function was passed to the 'ah->eep_ops->set_txpower'. Now the calling of the 'set_txpower' function happens indirectly through 'ath9k_hw_apply_txpower', so the 'test' argument of the 'set_txpower' is always 'false'. This patch restores the original behaviour of 'ath9k_hw_set_txpowerlimit' by adding a new argument to 'ath9k_hw_apply_txpower.'

2012-04-11rtlwifi: Preallocate USB read buffers and eliminate kalloc in read routineLarry Finger
The current version of rtlwifi for USB operations uses kmalloc to acquire a 32-bit buffer for each read of the device. When _usb_read_sync() is called with the rcu_lock held, the result is a "sleeping function called from invalid context" BUG. This is reported for two cases in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42775. The first case has the lock originating from within rtlwifi and could be fixed by rearranging the locking; however, the second originates from within mac80211. The kmalloc() call is removed from _usb_read_sync() by creating a ring buffer pointer in the private area and allocating the buffer data in the probe routine.

When the rate-control indexing is incorrectly set up, mac80211 issues a warning and returns NULL from the call to ieee80211_get_tx_rate(). When this happens, avoid a NULL pointer dereference.

2012-04-05simple_open: automatically convert to simple_open()Stephen Boyd
Many users of debugfs copy the implementation of default_open() when they want to support a custom read/write function op. This leads to a proliferation of the default_open() implementation across the entire tree. Now that the common implementation has been consolidated into libfs we can replace all the users of this function with simple_open(). This replacement was done with the following semantic patch: <smpl> @ open @ identifier open_f != simple_open; identifier i, f; @@ -int open_f(struct inode *i, struct file *f) -{ ( -if (i->i_private) -f->private_data = i->i_private; | -f->private_data = i->i_private; ) -return 0; -} @ has_open depends on open @ identifier fops; identifier open.open_f; @@ struct file_operations fops = { ... -.open = open_f, +.open = simple_open, ... }; </smpl> [akpm@linux-foundation.org: checkpatch fixes] Signed-off-by: Stephen Boyd <sboyd@codeaurora.org> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@lip6.fr> Acked-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-asm_system Pull "Disintegrate and delete asm/system.h" from David Howells: "Here are a bunch of patches to disintegrate asm/system.h into a set of separate bits to relieve the problem of circular inclusion dependencies. I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can and made sure that they don't break. The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2(). This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h. The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h. It holds a number of low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg. memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that aren't used in many places (eg. switch_to()). These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces: (1) asm/barrier.h Move memory barriers here. This already done for MIPS and Alpha. (2) asm/switch_to.h Move switch_to() and related stuff here. (3) asm/exec.h Move arch_align_stack() here. Other process execution related bits could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h. (4) asm/cmpxchg.h Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg(). (5) asm/bug.h Move die() and related bits. (6) asm/auxvec.h Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here. Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis." Fixed up some conflicts from other header file cleanups and moving code around that has happened in the meantime, so David's testing is somewhat weakened by that.

2012-03-26rtlwifi: rtl8192ce: rtl8192cu: rtl8192de: Fix low-gain setting when scanningLarry Finger
In https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=770207, slowdowns of driver rtl8192ce are reported. One fix (commit a9b89e2) has already been applied, and it helped, but the maximum RX speed would still drop to 1 Mbps. As in the previous fix, the initial gain was determined to be the problem; however, the problem arises from a setting of the gain when scans are started. Driver rtl8192de also has the same code structure - this one is fixed as well.

2012-03-26ath9k: reduce listen time periodRajkumar Manoharan
When we have downlink traffic alone and the station is going thru bgscan, the client is out of operating channel for around 1000ms which is too long. The mac80211 decides when to switch back to oper channel based on tx queue, bad latency and listen time. As the station does not have tx traffic, the bgscan can easily affect downlink throughput. By reducing the listen time, it helps the associated AP to retain the downstream rate.
