2008-06-09ipw2200: queue direct scansDan Williams
When another scan is in progress, a direct scan gets dropped on the floor. However, that direct scan is usually the scan that's really needed by userspace, and gets stomped on by all the broadcast scans the ipw2200 driver issues internally. Make sure the direct scan happens eventually, and as a bonus ensure that the passive scan worker is cleaned up when appropriate. The change of request_passive_scan form a struct work to struct delayed_work is only to make the set_wx_scan() code a bit simpler, it's still only used with a delay of 0 to match previous behavior.

2008-06-04ipw2200: expire and use oldest BSS on adhoc createDan Williams
If there are no networks on the free list, expire the oldest one when creating a new adhoc network. Because ipw2200 and the ieee80211 stack don't actually cull old networks and place them back on the free list unless they are needed for new probe responses, over time the free list would become empty and creating an adhoc network would fail due to the ! list_empty(...) check.

2008-04-08[NET]: Undo code bloat in hot paths due to print_mac().David S. Miller
If print_mac() is used inside of a pr_debug() the compiler can't see that the call is redundant so still performs it even of pr_debug() ends up being a nop. So don't use print_mac() in such cases in hot code paths, use MAC_FMT et al. instead. As noted by Joe Perches, pr_debug() could be modified to handle this better, but that is a change to an interface used by the entire kernel and thus needs to be validated carefully. This here is thus the less risky fix for 2.6.25 Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Commit bada339ba24dee9e143bfb42e1dc61f146619846 enforces that all interfaces have a valid MAC address before they are brought up. ipw2200 does not assign a MAC address to it's radiotap interface, meaning that the radiotap interface cannot be brought up in 2.6.24. https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215714 Fix this by copying the MAC address from the real interface.

2008-01-28introduce WEXT scan capabilitiesDan Williams
Introduce scan capabilities to WEXT so that userspace can do intelligent things with scan behavior such as handling hidden SSIDs more gracefully. If the driver reports a specific scan capability, the driver must respect the options specified in the iw_scan_req structure when handling the SIOCSIWSCAN call, unless it's mode or state does not allow it to do so, in which case it must return an error. This version switches to Dave Kilroy's suggestion of claiming unused padding space for the scan_capa field. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dcbw@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2007-10-10[PATCH] ipw2200: batch non-user-requested scan result notificationsDan Williams
ipw2200 makes extensive use of background scanning when unassociated or down. Unfortunately, the firmware sends scan completed events many times per second, which the driver pushes directly up to userspace. This needlessly wakes up processes listening for wireless events many times per second. Batch together scan completed events for non-user-requested scans and send them up to userspace every 4 seconds. Scan completed events resulting from an SIOCSIWSCAN call are pushed up without delay.

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.
