Luiz Augusto von Dentz 6fdf658c9a Bluetooth: Fix L2CAP security check
With older userspace versions (using hciops) it might not have the
key type to check if the key has sufficient security for any security
level so it is necessary to check the return of hci_conn_auth to make
sure the connection is authenticated

Stanislaw Gruszka 42b70a5f6d iwlagn: use cts-to-self protection on 5000 adapters series
This patch fixes 802.11n stability and performance regression we have
since 2.6.35. It boost performance on my 5GHz N-only network from about
5MB/s to 8MB/s. Similar percentage boost can be observed on 2.4 GHz.

These are test results of 5x downloading of approximately 700MB iso
image:

vanilla: 5.27 5.22 4.94 4.47 5.31 ; avr 5.0420 std 0.35110
patched: 8.07 7.95 8.06 7.99 7.96 ; avr 8.0060 std 0.055946

This was achieved with NetworkManager configured to do not perform
periodical scans, by configuring constant BSSID. With periodical scans,
after some time, performance downgrade to unpatched driver level, like
in example below:

patched: 7.40 7.61 4.28 4.37 4.80 avr 5.6920 std 1.6683

However patch still make better here, since similar test on unpatched
driver make link disconnects with below messages after some time:

wlan1: authenticate with 00:23:69:35:d1:3f (try 1)
wlan1: authenticate with 00:23:69:35:d1:3f (try 2)
wlan1: authenticate with 00:23:69:35:d1:3f (try 3)
wlan1: authentication with 00:23:69:35:d1:3f timed out

On 2.6.35 kernel patch helps against connection hangs with messages:

iwlagn 0000:20:00.0: queue 10 stuck 3 time. Fw reload.
iwlagn 0000:20:00.0: On demand firmware reload

Daniel Drake d2ac49fe3c libertas_sdio: handle spurious interrupts
Commit 06e8935feb adds an IRQ handling
optimization for single-function SDIO cards like this one, but at the
same time exposes a small hardware bug.

During hardware init, an interrupt is generated with (apparently) no
source. Previously, mmc threw this interrupt away, but now (due to the
optimization), the mmc layer passes this onto libertas, before it is ready
(and before it has enabled interrupts), causing a crash.

Work around this hardware bug by registering the IRQ handler later and
making it capable of handling interrupts with no cause. The change that
makes the IRQ handler registration happen later actually eliminates
the spurious interrupt as well.

Stanislaw Gruszka 6f213ff191 iwlagn: fix channel switch locking
We use priv->mutex to avoid race conditions between iwl_chswitch_done()
and iwlagn_mac_channel_switch(), when marking channel switch in

These bugs were introduced by:

Jussi Kivilinna 59342f6a6b zd1211rw: fix to work on OHCI
zd1211 devices register 'EP 4 OUT' endpoint as Interrupt type on USB 2.0:

      Endpoint Descriptor:
        bLength                 7
        bDescriptorType         5
        bEndpointAddress     0x04  EP 4 OUT
        bmAttributes            3
          Transfer Type            Interrupt
          Synch Type               None
          Usage Type               Data
        wMaxPacketSize     0x0040  1x 64 bytes
        bInterval               1

However on USB 1.1 endpoint becomes Bulk:

      Endpoint Descriptor:
        bLength                 7
        bDescriptorType         5
        bEndpointAddress     0x04  EP 4 OUT
        bmAttributes            2
          Transfer Type            Bulk
          Synch Type               None
          Usage Type               Data
        wMaxPacketSize     0x0040  1x 64 bytes
        bInterval               0

Commit 37939810b9 assumed that endpoint is
always interrupt type and changed usb_bulk_msg() calls to usb_interrupt_msg().

Problem here is that usb_bulk_msg() on interrupt endpoint selfcorrects the
call and changes requested pipe to interrupt type (see usb_bulk_msg).
However with usb_interrupt_msg() on bulk endpoint does not correct the
pipe type to bulk, but instead URB is submitted with interrupt type pipe.

So pre-2.6.39 used usb_bulk_msg() and therefore worked with both endpoint
types, however in 2.6.39 usb_interrupt_msg() with bulk endpoint causes
ohci_hcd to fail submitted URB instantly with -ENOSPC and preventing zd1211rw
from working with OHCI.

Fix this by detecting endpoint type and using correct endpoint/pipe types
for URB. Also fix asynchronous zd_usb_iowrite16v_async() to use right
URB type on 'EP 4 OUT'.

Luciano Coelho 66870b1ccd wl12xx: fix oops in sched_scan when forcing a passive scan
Fix kernel oops when trying to use passive scheduled scans.  The
reason was that in passive scans there are no SSIDs, so there was a
NULL pointer dereference.

To solve the problem, we now check the number of SSIDs provided in the
sched_scan request and only access the list if there's one or more
(ie. passive scan is not forced).  We also force all the channels to
be passive by adding the IEEE80211_CHAN_PASSIVE_SCAN flag locally
before the checks in the wl1271_scan_get_sched_scan_channels()
function.

Daniel Drake 71005be40a libertas: Set command sequence number later to ensure consistency
Before this patch, the command sequence number is being set before
lbs_queue_cmd() adds the command to the queue. However, lbs_queue_cmd()
sometimes forces commands to queue-jump (e.g. CMD_802_11_WAKEUP_CONFIRM).
It currently does this without considering that sequence numbers might need
adjusting to keep things running in order.

Fix this by setting the sequence number at a later stage, just before
we're actually submitting the command to the hardware. Also fixes a
possible race where seqnum was being modified outside of the driver
lock.

Several crashes in cleanup_once() were reported in recent kernels.

Commit d6cc1d642d (inetpeer: various changes) added a race in
unlink_from_unused().

One way to avoid taking unused_peers.lock before doing the list_empty()
test is to catch 0->1 refcnt transitions, using full barrier atomic
operations variants (atomic_cmpxchg() and atomic_inc_return()) instead
of previous atomic_inc() and atomic_add_unless() variants.

We then call unlink_from_unused() only for the owner of the 0->1
transition.

Add a new atomic_add_unless_return() static helper

With help from Arun Sharma.

Hans Schillstrom c74c0bfe0b IPVS: bug in ip_vs_ftp, same list heaad used in all netns.
When ip_vs was adapted to netns the ftp application was not adapted
in a correct way.
However this is a fix to avoid kernel errors. In the long term another solution
might be chosen.  I.e the ports that the ftp appl, uses should be per netns.

Rajkumar Manoharan 1d38c16ce4 mac80211: stop queues before rate control updation
Stop tx queues before updating rate control to ensure
proper rate selection. Otherwise packets can be transmitted
in 40 Mhz whereas hw is configured in HT20.

Rajkumar Manoharan 41e2b05b95 ath9k: set 40 Mhz rate only if hw is configured in ht40
Whenever there is a channel width change from 40 Mhz to 20 Mhz,
the hardware is reconfigured to ht20. Meantime before doing
the rate control updation, the packets are being transmitted are
selected rate with IEEE80211_TX_RC_40_MHZ_WIDTH.

While transmitting ht40 rate packets in ht20 mode is causing
baseband panic with AR9003 based chips.

Larry Finger 0019a2c927 rtlwifi: Use order 2 RX buffer allocation only if necessary
Although a previous fix handles the kernel panics that result from
failure to allocate a new RX buffer, memory fragmentation can be
reduced if the amsdu_8k capability is disabled as new buffers need only
be of O(0), not O(2).

Larry Finger a9e1286975 rtlwifi: Fix kernel panic resulting from RX buffer allocation failure
To handle amsdu_8k capability, the PCI routine of this driver must
allocate receive buffers of order 2. Under heavy load, this causes
fragmentation of memory. The present code releases the current buffer
before checking to see if a new one is availble. Recovery from
allocation failures is not possible, which results in kernel panics.

The fix is to reorder the code to check that a new buffer can be
allocated before the old one is released. If not possible, the
received frame is dropped and the old one is reused. Without this
change, it is impossible to transfer a 2 GB file without a kernel panic.

Luciano Coelho 208c72f4fe nl80211: fix check for valid SSID size in scan operations
In both trigger_scan and sched_scan operations, we were checking for
the SSID length before assigning the value correctly.  Since the
memory was just kzalloc'ed, the check was always failing and SSID with
over 32 characters were allowed to go through.

This was causing a buffer overflow when copying the actual SSID to the
proper place.

This bug has been there since 2.6.29-rc4.

Yogesh Ashok Powar 21bc7af6e5 mwifiex: correct event header length
While decoding received event packet from firmware, 4 bytes
of interface header are already removed unconditionally.
So for handling event only 4 more bytes needs to be pulled.
This is achieved by changing event header length to 4.

Almost all the events, except BA stream related and AMSDU
aggregation control events, do not have the payload in their
event skb. Such events handling depends only on the event ID.
This event ID is the first four bytes of the event skb, which
is copied to a separate variable before pulling the skb header.
Hence event handling worked only for those events that didn't
have payload in event skb.

This patch fixes the broken event path of the events with
payload in their event skb without harming existing working
event path for the events without payload.

As reported by Ingo Molnar, we still have configuration combinations
where use of the WARN_RATELIMIT interfaces break the build because
dependencies don't get met.

Instead of going down the long road of trying to make it so that
ratelimit.h can get included by kernel.h or asm-generic/bug.h,
just move the interface into ratelimit.h and make users have
to include that.

Weiping Pan noticed that the module option description for
xmit_hash_policy was incorrect and was nice enough to post a patch to
fix it.  The text was correct, but created a line over 80 characters and
I would rather not add those.  I realized I could take a few minutes and
clean up all the descriptions and things would look much better.  This
is the result.
