2009-07-21rtl8187: Fix for kernel oops when unloading with LEDs enabledLarry Finger
When rtl8187 is unloaded and CONFIG_RTL8187_LEDS is set, the kernel may oops when the module is unloaded as the workqueue for led_on was not being cancelled. This patch fixes the problem reported in http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=124742957615781&w=2.

2009-07-21ath5k: temporarily disable crypto for AP modeBob Copeland
Pavel Roskin reported some issues with using AP mode without nohwcrypt=1. Most likely this is similar to the problem fixed some time ago in ath9k by 3f53dd64f192450cb331c0fecfc26ca952fb242f, "ath9k: Fix hw crypto configuration for TKIP in AP mode." That only affects TKIP but it's easiest to just disable that and WEP too until we get a proper fix in. Signed-off-by: Bob Copeland <me@bobcopeland.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2009-07-21iwlwifi: only show active power level via sysfsReinette Chatre
This changes the power_level file to adhere to the "one value per file" sysfs rule. The user will know which power level was requested as it will be the number just written to this file. It is thus not necessary to create a new sysfs file for this value. In addition it fixes a problem where powertop's parsing expects this value to be the first value in this file without any descriptions.

2009-07-16E100: work around the driver using streaming DMA mapping for RX descriptors.Krzysztof Halasa
E100 places it's RX packet descriptors inside skb->data and uses them with bidirectional streaming DMA mapping. Unfortunately it fails to transfer skb->data ownership to the device after it reads the descriptor's status, breaking on non-coherent (e.g., ARM) platforms. This have to be converted to use coherent memory for the descriptors. Signed-off-by: Krzysztof Halasa <khc@pm.waw.pl> Acked-by: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-07-16bonding: clean muticast addresses when device changes typeMoni Shoua
Bonding device forbids slave device of different types under the same master. However, it is possible for a bonding master to change type during its lifetime. This can be either from ARPHRD_ETHER to ARPHRD_INFINIBAND or the other way arround. The change of type requires device level multicast address cleanup because device level multicast addresses depend on the device type. The patch adds a call to dev_close() before the bonding master changes type and dev_open() just after that. In the example below I enslaved an IPoIB device (ib0) under bond0. Since each bonding master starts as device of type ARPHRD_ETHER by default, a change of type occurs when ib0 is enslaved. This is how /proc/net/dev_mcast looks like without the patch 5 bond0 1 0 00ffffffff12601bffff000000000001ff96ca05 5 bond0 1 0 01005e000116 5 bond0 1 0 01005e7ffffd 5 bond0 1 0 01005e000001 5 bond0 1 0 333300000001 6 ib0 1 0 00ffffffff12601bffff000000000001ff96ca05 6 ib0 1 0 333300000001 6 ib0 1 0 01005e000001 6 ib0 1 0 01005e7ffffd 6 ib0 1 0 01005e000116 6 ib0 1 0 00ffffffff12401bffff00000000000000000001 6 ib0 1 0 00ffffffff12601bffff00000000000000000001 and this is how it looks like after the patch. 5 bond0 1 0 00ffffffff12601bffff000000000001ff96ca05 5 bond0 1 0 00ffffffff12601bffff00000000000000000001 5 bond0 1 0 00ffffffff12401bffff0000000000000ffffffd 5 bond0 1 0 00ffffffff12401bffff00000000000000000116 5 bond0 1 0 00ffffffff12401bffff00000000000000000001 6 ib0 1 0 00ffffffff12601bffff000000000001ff96ca05 6 ib0 1 0 00ffffffff12401bffff00000000000000000116 6 ib0 1 0 00ffffffff12401bffff0000000000000ffffffd 6 ib0 2 0 00ffffffff12401bffff00000000000000000001 6 ib0 2 0 00ffffffff12601bffff00000000000000000001 Signed-off-by: Moni Shoua <monis@voltaire.com> Signed-off-by: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Fixed by converting the involved locking code to use irq-safe locks. Review of other networking line disciplines shows that 6pack, both sync and async PPP and STRIP have similar issues. The ppp_async one is the most interesting one as it sorts out half of the issue as far back as 2004 in commit http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git;a=commitdiff;h=2996d8deaeddd01820691a872550dc0cfba0c37d Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> Reported-by: Guido Trentalancia <guido@trentalancia.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-07-12drivers/net/bonding: Adjust constant nameJulia Lawall
AD_SHORT_TIMEOUT and AD_STATE_LACP_ACTIVITY have the same value, but AD_STATE_LACP_ACTIVITY better reflects the intended semantics. [ J adds: AD_STATE_LACP_ACTIVITY is a value defined by the standard, and should be set here in accordance with 802.3ad 43.4.12; AD_SHORT_TIMEOUT is a constant specific to the Linux 802.3ad implementation that happens to have the same value ] The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // <smpl> @@ struct port_params p; @@ * p.port_state |= AD_SHORT_TIMEOUT // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Signed-off-by: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-07-10p54: fix queue stall due to underrunChristian Lamparter
Larry Finger discovered a weird behavior under load. In essence, the queue's length count under runs, which in turn renders the associated ac queue unusable.

2009-07-10p54usb: fix stalls caused by urb allocation failuresChristian Lamparter
This patch squashes a few old bugs, which have been around since the initial version of p54usb in one form or another. we never freed a orphaned frame, when were denied the resources, which are necessary to pass the data into the usb subsystem. As a result we could end up with a full queue that wasn't emptied, until the device was brought down. Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@web.de> Signed-off-by: John W.

2009-07-10ath5k: write PCU registers on initial resetBob Copeland
"Ath5k: unify resets" introduced a regression into 2.6.28 where the PCU registers are never initialized, due to ath5k_reset() always passing true for change_channel. We subsequently program a lot of these registers but several may start in an unknown state.
