Jussi Kivilinna 77593ae28c rndis_wlan: disable stall workaround
Stall workaround doesn't work with bcm4320a devices like with bcm4320b.
This workaround actually causes more stalls/device freeze on bcm4320a.
Therefore disable stall workaround by default.

Jussi Kivilinna c1f8ca1d83 rndis_wlan: fix buffer overflow in rndis_query_oid
rndis_query_oid overwrites *len which stores buffer size to return full size
of received command and then uses *len with memcpy to fill buffer with
command.

Ofcourse memcpy should be done before replacing buffer size.

Wey-Yi Guy 3681165235 iwlwifi: remove reset led_tpt from iwl_leds_init()
Current blinking rate is calculated based on the difference between
current tx/rx byte counts and priv->led_tpt.

priv->led_tpt should not get reset in iwl_leds_init(), this function can be
called by bring interface "up" or "down", or when uCode sysassert occurred.
resetting the led_tpt parameter will introduce incorrect led blinking behavior.

Wey-Yi Guy c341ddb283 iwlwifi: print limited number of event log when uCode error
To help iwlagn uCode debugging, event log will dump to syslog when driver
detect uCode error occurred, but this only happen when compile with
CONFIG_IWLWIFI_DEBUG and debug flag is enabled; which is not always
the case. Also, there is another problem, if the flag is set, the entire
event log buffer will be dump to syslog, it can flood the syslog and
make it very difficult to debug the problem.

Change the default to only dump last 20 entries of event log to syslog
unless the following condition meets:
1. both compile with CONFIG_IWLWIFI_DEBUG and debug flag
is enabled, and then dump the entire event buffer to syslog.
2. dump event log request from debugfs

Ben Cahill 74ba67edfc iwlagn: Use iwl_write8() for CSR_INT_COALESCING register
CSR_INT_COALESCING previously had only one, but now has two single-byte fields.
With only one single-byte field (lowest order byte) it was okay to write via
iwl_write32(), but now with two, an iwl_write32() to the lower order field
clobbers the other field (odd-address CSR_INT_PERIODIC_REG, offset 0x5), and an
iwl_write32() to CSR_INT_PERIODIC_REG could clobber the lowest byte of the
next-higher register (CSR_INT, offset 0x8).

Fortunately, no bad side effects have been produced by the iwl_write32()
usage, due to order of execution (low order byte was always written before
higher order byte), and the fact that writing "0" to the low byte of the
next higher register has no effect (only action is when writing "1"s).

Nonetheless, this cleans up the accesses so no bad side effects might occur
in the future, if execution order changes, or more bit fields get added to
CSR_INT_COALESCING.

Add some comments regarding periodic interrupt usage.

This rewrites the error handling policies in the TX status handler.
It tries to be error-tolerant as in "try hard to not crash the machine".
It won't recover from errors (that are bugs in the firmware or driver),
because that's impossible. However, it will return a more or less useful
error message and bail out. It also tries hard to use rate-limited messages

Johannes Berg a58ce43f2f mac80211: avoid spurious deauth frames/messages
With WEXT, it happens frequently that the SME
requests an authentication but then deauthenticates
right away because some new parameters came along.
Every time this happens we print a deauth message
and send a deauth frame, but both of that is rather
confusing. Avoid it by aborting the authentication
process silently, and telling cfg80211 about that.

The patch looks larger than it really is:
__cfg80211_auth_remove() is split out from
cfg80211_send_auth_timeout(), there's no new code
except __cfg80211_auth_canceled() (a one-liner) and

Right now all frames mac80211 hands to the driver
have the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS flag set to
request TX status. This isn't really necessary, only
the injected frames need TX status (the latter for
hostapd) so move setting this flag.

The rate control algorithms also need TX status, but
they don't require it.

Also, rt2x00 uses that bit for its own purposes and
seems to require it being set for all frames, but
that can be fixed in rt2x00.

This doesn't really change anything for any drivers
but in the future drivers using hw-rate control may
opt to not report TX status for frames that don't
have the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_REQ_TX_STATUS flag set.

Johannes Berg ad4bb6f888 cfg80211: disallow bridging managed/adhoc interfaces
A number of people have tried to add a wireless interface
(in managed mode) to a bridge and then complained that it
doesn't work. It cannot work, however, because in 802.11
networks all packets need to be acknowledged and as such
need to be sent to the right address. Promiscuous doesn't
help here. The wireless address format used for these
links has only space for three addresses, the
 * transmitter, which must be equal to the sender (origin)
 * receiver (on the wireless medium), which is the AP in
   the case of managed mode
 * the recipient (destination), which is on the APs local
   network segment

In an IBSS, it is similar, but the receiver and recipient
must match and the third address is used as the BSSID.

To avoid such mistakes in the future, disallow adding a
wireless interface to a bridge.

Felix has recently added a four-address mode to the AP
and client side that can be used (after negotiating that
it is possible, which must happen out-of-band by setting
up both sides) for bridging, so allow that case.

Also, keep track of 4addr in cfg80211 (wireless_dev)

improved for the VLAN case by not looking at the

Johannes Berg 98d3a7ca92 cfg80211: re-join IBSS when privacy changes
When going from/to a WEP protected IBSS, we need to
leave this one and join a new one to take care of
the changed capability.

Jouni Malinen 24b6b15f7d cfg80211: Allow reassociation in associated state
cfg80211 rejects all association requests when in associated state. This
prevents clean roaming within an ESS since one would first need to
disassociate before being able to request reassociation.

Accept the reassociation request and let the old association to be
dropped when the new one is completed. This fixes nl80211-based
roaming with the current snapshot version of wpa_supplicant (that has
code for requesting reassociation explicitly withthe previous BSSID
attribute).

Johannes Berg af65cd96dd mac80211: make software rate control optional
Some devices implement the entire rate control in
firmware in some way, like wl1271 or like iwlwifi
which does some things in software but not a lot.
Therefore generic software rate control is rather
useless for them and just adds avoidable overhead
to the transmit path.

It's fairly simple to let drivers indicate that
they do not need rate control, but they need to
fulfil a number of conditions that we encode in
WARN_ONs.

David-John Willis c95cf3d09a wl1251: add NVS in EEPROM support
wl1251 supports also that NVS is stored in a separate EEPROM, add support
for that.

kvalo: use platform data instead Kconfig and use kernel style
