2008-05-14atmel_lcdfb: fix initialization of a pre-allocated framebufferNicolas Ferre
Fix initialization of framebuffer not calling ioremap_writecombine() function and not using internal SRAM for at91sam9rl. This is a little rework of the "Don't initialize a pre-allocated framebuffer" patch that corrects the call to ioremap_writecombine() function. It also cuts the use of internal SRAM for at91sam9rl : it is a bit small for a framebuffer.

2008-05-14mm: fix infinite loop in filemap_faultMiklos Szeredi
filemap_fault will go into an infinite loop if ->readpage() fails asynchronously. AFAICS the bug was introduced by this commit, which removed the wait after the final readpage: commit d00806b183152af6d24f46f0c33f14162ca1262a Author: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Date: Thu Jul 19 01:46:57 2007 -0700 mm: fix fault vs invalidate race for linear mappings Fix by reintroducing the wait_on_page_locked() after ->readpage() to make sure the page is up-to-date before jumping back to the beginning of the function. I've noticed this while testing nfs exporting on fuse. The patch fixes it.

2008-05-14pnp: add ISAPnP MPU option quirksRene Herman
The AD181x and AZT230 chips don't support an IRQ-less MPU401 option but work fine without one. This adds (priority functional) IRQ-less options for each port option to help systems with few available IRQs. The AD1815 quirk can't use pnp_register_irq_resource() due to doubly penalizing the IRQ. Also, while not a practical issue due to no IRQ option being present for the dependents, this needs to add in front, not back. Doesn't use pnp_register_port_resource() for symetry with above. This does not delete the AD1815 independent option even though it should be empty after the IRQ transfer due to AD1816 coming with an empty but still present independent option by default. Was tested on AD1815, AD1816 and AZT2320. The ALSA snd-ad1818a driver also support the AZT2002 ID for MPU401 but this doesn't as I was unable to test it.

2008-05-14pnp: add pnp_build_option() to the APIRene Herman
The subsequent AD181x quirk patch would like this as part of the API. pnp_register_dependent_option() adds to the same dependent chain the quirk is walking which is fairly unclean. This enables a private option chain build which it can then just add onto the end when done.

2008-05-14fix "lxfb: extend PLL table to support dotclocks below 25 MHz"Jens Rottmann
The following patch caused a regression with OLPC panels: commit 3888d4639e78802c4ec1086127124e890461b9e4 lxfb: extend PLL table to support dotclocks below 25 MHz Extends the PLL frequency table of the AMD Geode-LX frame buffer driver to make use of the DIV4 bit, thus adding support for dotclocks between 6 and 25 MHz. These are needed for small LCDs (e.g. 320x240). Also inserts some intermediate steps between pre-existing frequencies. The problem was the insertion of intermediate steps into the frequency table; they would cause the wrong frequency to be matched. This patch drops those intermediate frequencies while keeping the sub-25MHz frequencies.

2008-05-149p: fix error path during early mountEric Van Hensbergen
There was some cleanup issues during early mount which would trigger a kernel bug for certain types of failure. This patch reorganizes the cleanup to get rid of the bad behavior. This also merges the 9pnet and 9pnet_fd modules for the purpose of configuration and initialization. Keeping the fd transport separate from the core 9pnet code seemed like a good idea at the time, but in practice has caused more harm and confusion than good.

2008-05-14add match_strlcpy() us it to make v9fs make uname and remotename parsing ↵Markus Armbruster
more robust match_strcpy() is a somewhat creepy function: the caller needs to make sure that the destination buffer is big enough, and when he screws up or forgets, match_strcpy() happily overruns the buffer. There's exactly one customer: v9fs_parse_options(). I believe it currently can't overflow its buffer, but that's not exactly obvious. The source string is a substing of the mount options. The kernel silently truncates those to PAGE_SIZE bytes, including the terminating zero. See compat_sys_mount() and do_mount(). The destination buffer is obtained from __getname(), which allocates from name_cachep, which is initialized by vfs_caches_init() for size PATH_MAX. We're safe as long as PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE. PATH_MAX is 4096. As far as I know, the smallest PAGE_SIZE is also 4096. Here's a patch that makes the code a bit more obviously correct. It doesn't depend on PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE.

2008-05-14ath5k: Fix loop variable initializationsBob Copeland
In ath5k_tasklet_rx, both status structures 'rxs' and 'rs' are initialized at the top of the tasklet, but not within the loop. If the loop is executed multiple times in the tasklet then the variables may see changes from previous packets. For TKIP, this results in 'Invalid Michael MIC' errors if two packets are processed in the tasklet: rxs.flag gets set to RX_DECRYPTED by mac80211 when it decrypts the first encrypted packet. The subsequent packet will have RX_DECRYPTED set upon entry to mac80211, so mac80211 will not try to decrypt it. We currently initialize all but two fields in the structures, so fix the other two.

All interfaces should set the IEEE80211_TXPD_REQ_TX_STATUS flag for all TX frames which will force the master interface to set the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS flag. This in turn will allow drivers to check for that flag before reporting the TX status to mac80211. This is very usefull when frames (like beacons, RTS and CTS-to-self) should not be reported back to mac80211.

2008-05-14mac80211: use hardware flags for signal/noise unitsBruno Randolf
trying to clean up the signal/noise code. the previous code in mac80211 had confusing names for the related variables, did not have much definition of what units of signal and noise were provided and used implicit mechanisms from the wireless extensions. this patch introduces hardware capability flags to let the hardware specify clearly if it can provide signal and noise level values and which units it can provide. this also anticipates possible new units like RCPI in the future. for signal: IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_UNSPEC - unspecified, unknown, hw specific IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DB - dB difference to unspecified reference point IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DBM - dBm, difference to 1mW for noise we currently only have dBm: IEEE80211_HW_NOISE_DBM - dBm, difference to 1mW if IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_UNSPEC or IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DB is used the driver has to provide the maximum value (max_signal) it reports in order for applications to make sense of the signal values. i tried my best to find out for each driver what it can provide and update it but i'm not sure (?) for some of them and used the more conservative guess in doubt. this can be fixed easily after this patch has been merged by changing the hardware flags of the driver.

2008-05-14iwl3945: do not delay hardware scan if it is a direct scanBill Moss
iwl3945 <---> mac80211 <----> wpa_supplicant <---> NetworkManager When a hardware scan is completed and another scan is requested in less than two seconds, iwlwifi will not do the second scan and will pass the error code -EAGAIN back to mac80211 where it quickly dies. The error code is not passed along to the calling program wpa_supplicant. After a timeout, wpa_supplicant will just give up but it will not know why the scan failed. This is a weakness in the design. I ran into this issue when I was trying to figure out why it takes more an a minute for NetworkManager to connect after Networking has been disabled and then re-enabled. I found a good deal of unnecessary work being done because mac80211 requests authentication when the interface is not configured, the ANY mode. I created an experimental passive (NOTANY) mode for mac80211 to eliminate this case. Then NetworkManager became so fast that I ran into the iwlwifi 2 second delay next scan issue which we are discussing. The patch resolves the problem by bypassing the delay if the scan request is a direct scan. It should do less harm to the hardware.
