2009-09-23wireless: default CONFIG_WLAN to yLuis R. Rodriguez
When this was added no defaults were set and it seems this implies n. Default this to y. Reported-by: Jouni Malinen <jouni.malinen@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <lrodriguez@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2009-09-23ath9k: Fix bug in ANI channel handlingSujith
When processing MIB interrupts, OFDM and CCK error handling routines for low RSSI values have to be invoked only when the channel mode is 11G/11B. Since HT channels will also fall under the bands 2Ghz/5Ghz, check appropriately. Signed-off-by: Sujith <Sujith.Manoharan@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2009-09-23hostap: Revert a toxic part of the conversion to net_device_opsMartin Decky
As the hostap driver was converted to use net_device_ops, a mistake was made in hostap_main.c (commit 5ae4efbcd2611562a8b93596be034e63495706a5). Originally, the tx_queue_len was set to 0 for every other interface than HOSTAP_INTERFACE_MASTER, but the new fragment of code sets tx_queue_len to 0 only for HOSTAP_INTERFACE_MASTER. The opposite of the previous behavior makes the driver to drop all packets in AP mode. Change the way 0 is assigned to tx_queue_len according to the original logic.

2009-09-09wireless: mark prism54 as deprecated and mark for removalLuis R. Rodriguez
The preferred module is p54pci which also supports FullMAC PCI / Cardbus devices. We schedule removal for 2.6.34. Reason to remove this is no one really is testing prism54 anymore, and while it works p54pci provides support for the same hardware. It should be noted I have been told some FullMAC devices may not have worked with the SoftMAC driver but to date we have yet to recieve a single bug report regarding this. If there are users out there please let us know!

2009-09-09b43: Really disable QoS, if requestedMichael Buesch
Currently, when QoS-disable is requested, we would leave QoS enabled in firmware, but only queue frames on one queue. Change that and also tell firmware about disabled QoS, so it completely ignores all the QoS parameters. Also don't upload the parameters, if QoS is disabled.

2009-09-09rt2x00: Hardcode TX ack timeout and consume timeIvo van Doorn
The calculated values for the ACK timeout and ACK consume time are different then the values as used by the Legacy drivers. After testing from James Ledwith it appeared that the calculated values caused a high amount of TX failures, and the values from the Legacy drivers were the most optimal to prevent TX failure due to excessive retries. The symptoms of this problem: - Rate control module always falls back to 1Mbs - Low throughput when bitrate was fixed Possible side-effects (not confirmed but highly likely) - Problems with DHCP - Broken connections due to lack of probe response This should fix at least: Kernel bugzilla reports: [13362], [13009], [9273] Fedora bugzilla reports: [443203] but possible some additional bugs as well.

2009-09-08ath,ar9170: implemented conformance test limit calc. for tx powerJoerg Albert
apply the conformance test limits (CTL) stored in the eeprom upon the values calculated for the tx power (ar->power_*). This is based on the implementation in the vendor driver (hal/hpmain.c, line 3700 ff.) with one difference: If any ctl mode isn't found in the eeprom, we fall back to the "lower", legacy modes (5GHT20,11A or 2GHT20,11G,11B). Otus only did 5GHT20->11A. Currently CTL are applied for the FCC group only. Signed-off-by: Joerg Albert <jal2@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2009-09-08b43: Use a threaded IRQ handlerMichael Buesch
Use a threaded IRQ handler to allow locking the mutex and sleeping while executing an interrupt. This removes usage of the irq_lock spinlock, but introduces a new hardirq_lock, which is _only_ used for the PCI/SSB lowlevel hard-irq handler. Sleeping busses (SDIO) will use mutex instead.

2009-09-08ath9k: Fix channelFlags for 2GHZSujith
CHANNEL_G has to be set for 2GHZ channels since IS_CHAN_G() checks for this in channelFlags and not in chanmode. To make things messier, ath9k_hw_process_ini() checks for CHANNEL_G in chanmode and not in channelFlags. The supreme, brain-searing fix is to set the flag in both cases.

We've cleaned up ath_init_device() and its children enough to pass meaninful errors back from probe.

2009-09-01iwmc3200wifi: Handle UMAC stalls and UMAC assert properlySamuel Ortiz
When UMAC stalls or asserts, we want to reset the device. But when we're associated, the current reset worker will end up calling cfg80211_connect_result() with the cfg80211 sme layer knowing that we're reassociating. That ends up with some ugly warnings. With this patch we're telling the upper layer that we've roamed if reassociation succeeds, and that we're disconnected if it fails.

2009-09-01iwmc3200wifi: New initial LMAC calibrationSamuel Ortiz
The LMAC calibration API got broken mostly by having a configuration bitmap being different than the result one.

2009-09-01iwmc3200wifi: add disconnect workZhu Yi
When the driver receives "connection terminated" event from device, it could be caused by 2 reasons: the firmware is roaming or the connection is lost (AP disappears). For the former, an association complete event is supposed to come within 3 seconds. For the latter, the driver won't receive any event except the connection terminated. So we kick a delayed work (5*HZ) when we receive the connection terminated event. It will be canceled if it turns out to be a roaming event later. Otherwise we notify SME and userspace the disconnection. Signed-off-by: Zhu Yi <yi.zhu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Samuel Ortiz <sameo@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
