orinoco_usb: fix interface sanity check

2020-05-22T20:19:19+00:00

commit b73e05aa543cf8db4f4927e36952360d71291d41 upstream.

Make sure to use the current alternate setting when verifying the
interface descriptors to avoid binding to an invalid interface.

Failing to do so could cause the driver to misbehave or trigger a WARN()
in usb_submit_urb() that kernels with panic_on_warn set would choke on.

USB: orinoco_usb: remove CONFIG_USB_DEBUG support

2014-05-29T18:22:47+00:00

Now that the config option is gone, the driver needs to be converted
over to using the dynamic_debug infrastructure, like all other USB
drivers have been already.

cfg80211: constify more pointers in the cfg80211 API

2014-05-19T15:53:16+00:00

This also propagates through the drivers.

The orinoco driver uses the cfg80211 API structs for internal
bookkeeping, and so needs a (void *) cast that removes the
const - but that's OK because it allocates those pointers.

orinoco_usb: Fix broken firmware load error checking

2014-05-13T19:56:35+00:00

The check of ezusb_firmware_download() return value (added by commit
488ec878034eccb852267b0e27ce9d511f75c587) is broken because
ezusb_firmware_download() returns 1 on success.
This causes the driver not to work with the following error:
orinoco_usb: probe of 3-3:1.0 failed with error -14

Check the return value only for negative values.

This fix should be applied to -stable kernels too.

orinoco: replace function ieee80211_{dsss_chan_to_freq, freq_to_dsss_chan}

2014-02-28T19:12:36+00:00

Replace ieee80211_{dsss_chan_to_freq, freq_to_dsss_chan} with more
generic ieee80211_{channel_to_frequency, frequency_to_channel}.

File  has already been included. It's safe to use
IEEE80211_BAND_2GHZ here.

This change is a preparation for the removal of function
ieee80211_{dsss_chan_to_freq, freq_to_dsss_chan}.

wireless: delete non-required instances of include

2014-01-03T20:37:01+00:00

None of these files are actually using any __init type directives
and hence don't need to include .  Most are just a
left over from __devinit and __cpuinit removal, or simply due to
code getting copied from one driver to the next.

Just some minor conflicts between the wireless-next changes
and Joe Perches's "extern" removal from function prototypes
in header files.

John W. Linville says:

====================
Regarding the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says:

"The big work here is from Marcel and Johan. They did a lot of work
in the L2CAP, HCI and MGMT layers. The most important ones are the
addition of a new MGMT command to enable/disable LE advertisement
and the introduction of the HCI user channel to allow applications
to get directly and exclusive access to Bluetooth devices."

As to the ath10k bits, Kalle says:

"Bartosz dropped support for qca98xx hw1.0 hardware from ath10k, it's
just too much to support it. Michal added support for the new firmware
interface. Marek fixed WEP in AP and IBSS mode. Rest of the changes are
minor fixes or cleanups."

And also:

"Major changes are:

* throughput improvements including aligning the RX frames correctly and
  optimising HTT layer (Michal)

* remove qca98xx hw1.0 support (Bartosz)

* add support for firmware version 999.999.0.636 (Michal)

* firmware htt statistics support (Kalle)

* fix WEP in AP and IBSS mode (Marek)

* fix a mutex unlock balance in debugfs file (Shafi)

And of course there's a lot of smaller fixes and cleanup."

For the wl12xx bits, Luca says:

"Here are some patches intended for 3.13.  Eliad is upstreaming a bunch
of patches that have been pending in the internal tree.  Mostly bugfixes
and other small improvements."

Along with that...

Arend and friends bring us a batch of brcmfmac updates, Larry Finger
offers some rtlwifi refactoring, and Sujith sends the usual batch of
ath9k updates.  As usual, there are a number of other small updates
from a variety of players as well.

wireless: orinoco: remove unnecessary pci_set_drvdata()

2013-09-26T19:13:44+00:00

The driver core clears the driver data to NULL after device_release
or on probe failure. Thus, it is not needed to manually clear the
device driver data to NULL.
