2007-10-10[BCM43XX]: Change radio hardware switch status printk from debug to regularLarry Finger
Some distros ship bcm43xx with debugging printout disabled. For those BCM43xx devices with radio on/off switches, this makes it impossible to know if the radio is on or off. This patch changes a pair of debug printk's into ordinary printk's. It also changes the message that prints when the radio is initialized to the off state as the old message seems to confuse users.

2007-09-14[PATCH] bcm43xx: Fix cancellation of work queue crashesLarry Finger
A crash upon booting that is caused by bcm43xx has been reported [1] and found to be due to a work queue being reinitialized while work on that queue is still pending. This fix modifies the shutdown of work queues and prevents periodic work from being requeued during shutdown. With this patch, no more crashes on reboot were observed by the original reporter. I do not get that particular failure on my system; however, when running a large number of ifdown/ifup sequences, my system would kernel panic with the 'caps lock' light blinking at roughly a 1 Hz rate. In addition, there were infrequent failures in the firmware that resulted in 'IRQ READY TIMEOUT' errors. With this patch, no more of the first type of failure occur, and incidence of the second type is greatly reduced.

2007-07-11PCI: Change all drivers to use pci_device->revisionAuke Kok
Instead of all drivers reading pci config space to get the revision ID, they can now use the pci_device->revision member. This exposes some issues where drivers where reading a word or a dword for the revision number, and adding useless error-handling around the read. Some drivers even just read it for no purpose of all. In devices where the revision ID is being copied over and used in what appears to be the equivalent of hotpath, I have left the copy code and the cached copy as not to influence the driver's performance. Compile tested with make all{yes,mod}config on x86_64 and i386.

In code manipulating the TM State Low register of 802.11 cores, two different magic numbers are used to reference the 'G Mode Enable' bit. One of these, 0x20000000, is clear, but the other, (0x800 << 18), is not. This patch replaces both types with a defined constant.

2007-03-16[PATCH] bcm43xx: MANUALWLAN fixesLarry Finger
During testing of bcm43xx interference mitigation, two problems were discovered: (1) When the MANUALWLAN mode was set, routines _stack_save and _stack_restore generated assertions that were traced to saving ILT registers with addresses > 0xFFF. This problem was fixed by adding one bit to the field used for the offset, and subtracting one bit from the space used for the id. (2) In MANUALWLAN mode, the IRQ XMIT errors are generated. The cause of these errors has not yet been located. Any suggestions on debugging this problem would be greatly appreciated.

2007-02-14[PATCH] bcm43xx: OFDM fix for rev 1 cardsLarry Finger
Nearly all of the writes to the bcm43xx internal lookup tables (ilt) involve 16-bit quantities. Accordingly, the ilt_write routine was coded to pass a u16 value. For one early GPHY chip, 32-bit quantities are needed. For those writes, the value was clipped to 16 bits. This patch adds an ilt_write32 routine that receives a 32-bit quantity and writes it to the appropriate locations. Signed-off-by: Larry Finger<Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

2007-02-14[PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.hTim Schmielau
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes. There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the course of cleaning it up. To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble. Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha, arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig, allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted by unnecessarily included header files).

2007-02-07[PATCH] bcm43xx: Enable fwpostfix in nondebug bcm43xxMichael Buesch
The in-kernel bcm43xx driver only works with V3 firmware, whereas the experimental version that incorporates the d80211 stack requires V4 firmware. In bcm43xx-d80211, the fwpostfix module parameter is used to differentiate between the versions. In bcm43xx-softmac, this module parameter is only enabled when debugging is on. This patch makes the module parameter available unconditionaly, and should ease the future transition from softmac to d80211.

Some versions of the bcm43xx chips only support 30-bit DMA, which means that the descriptors and buffers must be in the first 1 GB of RAM. On the i386 and x86_64 architectures with more than 1 GB RAM, an incorrect assignment may occur. This patch ensures that the various DMA addresses are within the capability of the chip.
