2009-06-15debugfs: Fix terminology inconsistency of dir name to mount debugfs filesystem.GeunSik Lim
Many developers use "/debug/" or "/debugfs/" or "/sys/kernel/debug/" directory name to mount debugfs filesystem for ftrace according to ./Documentation/tracers/ftrace.txt file. And, three directory names(ex:/debug/, /debugfs/, /sys/kernel/debug/) is existed in kernel source like ftrace, DRM, Wireless, Documentation, Network[sky2]files to mount debugfs filesystem. debugfs means debug filesystem for debugging easy to use by greg kroah hartman. "/sys/kernel/debug/" name is suitable as directory name of debugfs filesystem. - debugfs related reference: http://lwn.net/Articles/334546/ Fix inconsistency of directory name to mount debugfs filesystem. * From Steven Rostedt - find_debugfs() and tracing_files() in this patch.

This patch along with my previous patch in mac80211 "Fix the way ADDBA count..", fixes hang in tx when connected to an HT AP which rejects/times out on addba req. AGGR_ADDBA_PROGRESS should be cleared in aggr state when addba negotiation is terminated due to either addba response is timed out or addba is denied by the AP. With out clearing this bit, all frames are queued onto s/w queue for getting tx'd as aggr and will never be scheduled onto hw queue.

2009-06-10ar9170: xmit code revampChristian Lamparter
This patch is a back-port from aggregation testing code. In the past, we didn't limit the amount of active tx urbs. However, ar9170 only has a limited buffer reserved for pending data frames. This wasn't much of a problem with the slower 802.11b/g. We simply stopped the full queue and moved on to something different in the mean time. But - as you guessed it - this simple approach stands in way for a decent aggregation implementation. Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@web.de> Signed-off-by: John W.

2009-06-04iwl3945/iwlwifi: fix led bug when SW rfkillAbhijeet Kolekar
Patch fixes the bug at http://www.intellinuxwireless.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1903 when SW rfkill is invoked by 'iwconfig txpower off', the existing connection disassociates and led off command is sent to the device which returns error as rfkill is 'true'. Patch fixes this by just avoiding sending the led off/on command when disassociated. The main purpose of the led_disassociate callback is to start or stop the blinking. There are three states in led 1) Always on when radio is on 2) Always off when radio is off 3) blink when associated and if there is some traffic. In this callback 'allow_blinking' needs to be set false when associated, as LED will be always on.

2009-06-03libertas: improve function init/shutdown handling for SD8688Bing Zhao
This patch is to incorporate Dan Williams' comments for commit: "libertas: implement function init/shutdown commands for SD8688" 1. remove fn_init_required and fn_shutdown_required variables from lbs_private structure. If required, __lbs_cmd() will be called directly to send function init/shutdown command for SD8688 in if_sdio_probe() or if_sdio_remove() callback. 2. add global variable "user_rmmod" to distinguish between the module removal case and the card removal case. This flag will be checked in if_sdio_remove() against SD8688 card to determine whether or not the function shutdown command needs to be sent. 3. remove "card" from if_sdio_model structure as it cannot store card pointers for multiple cards.

2009-06-03ath9k: Add sanity check for beacon_int in adhoc/mesh caseJouni Malinen
It looks like mac80211 can request the driver to start beaconing with a beacon interval of zero in some cases (at least for mesh point). This does not sound correct and something may need to be fixed in mac80211. However, taken into account the unpleasantness of getting stuck in an infinite busy loop with rtnl_lock held, let's add a quick workaround in the driver to avoid the worst symptom while someone more familiar with the mesh implementation can figure out what should be done with mac80211 as far as beacon interval configuration is concerned.
