2006-10-16[PATCH] bcm43xx-softmac: Fix system hang for x86-64 with >1GB RAMLarry Finger
The bcm43xx-softmac software currently fails when running on x86_64 systems with more than 1GB RAM and one of the card variants with 30-bit DMA addressing. This patch uses the address extension bits in the hardware to set the correct DMA mask for the specific card in use. Signed-off-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

2006-10-16[PATCH] bcm43xx-softmac: check returned value from pci_enable_deviceLarry Finger
Linus's tree now has a configuration option that prints a warning whenever the returned value of any routine is ignored. This patch fixes the only such warning for bcm43xx. Signed-off-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2006-10-16[PATCH] bcm43xx: fix race condition in periodic work handlerMichael Buesch
There is a potential race condition in the periodic_work_handler routine of bcm43xx-softmac. In addition to fixing this condition, the size of code is reduced by moving the mutex lock outside the if.

2006-10-05IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlersDavid Howells
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the Linux kernel. The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path (ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()). Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception handling. Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing. I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers. I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile with minimal configurations. This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy. Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one: struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs); And put the old one back at the end: set_irq_regs(old_regs); Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ(). In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary: - update_process_times(user_mode(regs)); - profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs); + update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs())); + profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING); I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself, except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode(). Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers: (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in the input_dev struct. (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs pointer or not. (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type irq_handler_t.

2006-09-25[PATCH] bcm43xx-softmac: improve wrong firmware messageLarry Finger

2006-07-27[PATCH] bcm43xx: init routine rewriteMichael Buesch
Rewrite of the bcm43xx initialization routines. This fixes several issues: * up-down-up-down-up... stale data issue (May fix some DHCP issues) * Fix the init vs IRQ handler race (and remove the workaround) * Fix init for cards with multiple cores (APHY) As softmac has no internal PHY handling (unlike dscape), this adds the file "phymode" to sysfs. The active PHY can be selected by writing either a, b or g to this file. Current PHY can be determined by reading from it. * Fix the controller restart code.

2006-07-27[PATCH] softmac: do shared key auth in workqueueDaniel Drake
Johann Uhrmann reported a bcm43xx crash and Michael Buesch tracked it down to a problem with the new shared key auth code (recursive calls into the driver) This patch (effectively Michael's patch with a couple of small modifications) solves the problem by sending the authentication challenge response frame from a workqueue entry. I also removed a lone \n from the bcm43xx messages relating to authentication mode - this small change was previously discussed but not patched in.

2006-07-05[PATCH] bcm43xx: workaround init_board vs. IRQ raceMichael Buesch
Place the Init-vs-IRQ workaround before any card register access, because we might not have the wireless core mapped at all times in init.

The problem here is that the bcm34xx driver and the ieee80211 stack do not agree on what channels are possible for 802.11a. The ieee80211 stack only wants channels between 34 and 165, while the bcm43xx driver accepts anything from 0 to 200.
