2009-10-08cfg80211: fix netns error unwinding bugJohannes Berg
The error unwinding code in set_netns has a bug that will make it run into a BUG_ON if passed a bad wiphy index, fix by not trying to unlock a wiphy that doesn't exist. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2009-10-07b43: do not stack-allocate pio rx/tx header and tail buffersAlbert Herranz
The DMA-API debugging facility complains about b43 mapping memory from stack for SDIO-based cards. Indeed, b43 currently allocates the PIO RX/TX header and tail buffers from stack. The solution here is to use heap-allocated buffers instead. Signed-off-by: Albert Herranz <albert_herranz@yahoo.es> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2009-10-07b43: Fix PPC crash in rfkill polling on unloadLarry Finger
In Bugzilla No. 14181, a PowerMac G4 crashes on ifdown or module unload because the rfkill polling has not been stopped. For the x86 architectures, the attempt to reach a now unmapped register is not fatal as it is on PPC.

2009-10-07iwlwifi: incorrect method used for finding valid OTP blocksJay Sternberg
The address stored in the next link address is a word address but when reading the OTP blocks, a byte address is used. Also if the blocks are full and the last link pointer is not zero, then none of the blocks are valid so return an error. The algorithm is simply valid blocks have a next address and that address's contents is zero. Using the wrong address for the next link address gets arbitrary data, obviously. In cases seen, the first block is considered valid when it is not. If the block has in fact been invalidated there may be old data or there may be no data, bad data, or partial data, there is no way of telling. Without this patch it is possible that a device with valid OTP data is unable to work.

2009-10-07mac80211: fix vlan and optimise RXJohannes Berg
When receiving data frames, we can send them only to the interface they belong to based on transmitting station (this doesn't work for probe requests). Also, don't try to handle other frames for AP_VLAN at all since those interface should only receive data. Additionally, the transmit side must check that the station we're sending a frame to is actually on the interface we're transmitting on, and not transmit packets to functions that live on other interfaces, so validate that as well. Another bug fix is needed in sta_info.c where in the VLAN case when adding/removing stations we overwrite the sdata variable we still need.

2009-10-07ethoc: use system memory as bufferThomas Chou
This patch enabled the ethoc to allocate system memory as buffer when there is no dedicated buffer memory. Some hardware designs may not have dedicated buffer memory such as on chip or off chip SRAM. In this case, only one memory resource is supplied in the platform data instead of two. Then a DMA buffer can be allocated from system memory and used for the transfer.

2009-10-07ethoc: align received packet to make IP header at word boundaryThomas Chou
The packet buffer is allocated at 4 bytes boundary, but the IP header length and version bits is located at byte 14. These bit fields access as 32 bits word and caused exception on processors that do not support unaligned access. The patch adds 2 bytes offset to make the bit fields word aligned.

2009-10-07ethoc: fix buffer address mappingThomas Chou

It is not currently possible to instruct pktgen to use one selected tx queue.

I suspect a high performance setup on a eight txqueue device wants to use exactly eight cpus, and assign one tx queue to each sender. This patchs makes pktgen select the right tx queue, not the first one. Also updates Documentation to reflect Robert changes.
