p54: connect to 11w protected networks

2012-09-24T19:02:08+00:00

Previously, it was not possible to connect to
networks which requires 11w to be supported by
the stations.

Note:

As all current (and old) firmwares corrupt
incoming, protected management frames, the
decryption offloading needs to be disabled.
This will be done automatically if needed.

p54: fix off-by-one null pointer bug in p54_tx_80211

2012-09-11T19:13:54+00:00

This patch fixes a regression which was introduced in:
"mac80211: move TX station pointer and restructure TX"

p54_tx_80211 function is called as part of the
beacon update. The caller p54_bss_info_changed
has to supply a valid tx control struct, or
the control->sta will lead to a null pointer
dereference.

USB: p54usb: remove __devinit* from the struct usb_device_id table

2012-08-18T00:50:44+00:00

This structure needs to always stick around, even if CONFIG_HOTPLUG
is disabled, otherwise we can oops when trying to probe a device that
was added after the structure is thrown away.

Thanks to Fengguang Wu and Bjørn Mork for tracking this issue down.

p54: fix powerpc gcc warnings

2012-08-13T19:28:35+00:00

My commit "p54: parse output power table" introduced
the following compiler warnings for powerpc-allmodconfig

eeprom.c: In function 'p54_get_maxpower':
eeprom.c:291 warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast
eeporm.c:292 warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast
eeprom.c:293 warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast
eeprom.c:294 warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast

This patch fixes those by using max_t(u16
which forces a type cast.

p54: parse output power table

2012-08-10T19:17:14+00:00

For the upcoming tpc changes, the driver needs
to provide sensible max output values for each
supported channel.

And while the eeprom always had a output_limit
table, which defines the upper limit for each
frequency and modulation, it was never really
useful for anything... until now.

Note: For anyone wondering about what your card
is calibrated for: check "iw list".
