2005-10-28[PATCH] Better fixup for the orinoco driverAlan Cox
The latest kernel added a pretty ugly fix for the orinoco etherleak bug which contains bogus skb->len checks already done by the caller and causes copies of all odd sized frames (which are quite common) While the skb->len check should be ripped out the other fix is harder to do properly so I'm proposing for this the -mm tree only until next 2.6.x so that it gets tested. Instead of copying buffers around blindly this code implements a padding aware version of the hermes buffer writing function which does padding as the buffer is loaded and thus more cleanly and without bogus 1.5K copies.

2005-10-04[PATCH] orinoco: Information leakage due to incorrect paddingPavel Roskin
The orinoco driver can send uninitialized data exposing random pieces of the system memory. This happens because data is not padded with zeroes when its length needs to be increased.

2005-09-28[PATCH] orinoco: Fix flood of kernel log with stupid WE warningsBenjamin Herrenschmidt
Latest wireless extensions moved a field from netdev -> wireless_handlers. The WE core will now printk a warning on every call to get_wireless_stats() on a driver that still uses the old field.

Signed-off-by: Pavel Roskin <proski@gnu.org> Remove inneeded system includes. Most system includes are not needed. In particular, the hardware backends don't need anything network related. Some includes have been moved from local headers to the C files where they are actually used. Includes that have to be in the local headers are no longer from the C sources.

2005-06-27[PATCH] orinoco: always use 802.11 header for rx processingChristoph Hellwig
If the frame has ToDS flag set, mark it by setting skb->pkt_type to PACKET_OTHERHOST, so that applications unaware of promiscous mode won't get uplink (STA->AP) packets for STA->STA transmissions relayed by the AP.

Don't attempt to manually set the channel in infrastructure mode, the firmware doesn't like that much.

2005-05-12 [PATCH] Orinoco: ignore_disconnect flagDavid Gibson
Adds an ignore_disconnect module parameter. When enabled, the driver will continue attempting to send packets even when the firmware has told us we've lost our link to the AP. On some firmwares this substantially increases the usable range of the card (presumably because we have an interrmittent connection, but the firmware is able to queue the packets for us until we're connected again). On some other cards, it causes the firmware to fall in a screaming heap :( (hence, default off).

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
