staging: r8712u: Fix possible out-of-bounds index with TKIP and AES keys

2011-10-11T16:02:49+00:00

Array XGrpKey has only 2 elements and uses (keyid - 1) as the index, which
allows the possibility of memory corruption from an out-of-bounds index.

This problem was reported by a new version of smatch.

staging: r8712u: Most return-values changed from -1 to proper errno macros.

2011-09-07T00:00:36+00:00

The ioctl handlers were frequently returning -1 upon failure. Most of
these have now been changed to proper errno macros.
The few remaining ones have been left untouched because either the
handler is not called (and so cannot be tested), or the function never
fails (and so cannot be system-tested), or requires new code to
distinguish its failures.

staging: r8712u: Tracking kmemleak false positives.

2011-09-07T00:00:35+00:00

The frame buffers allocated in _r8712_init_recv_priv() are not tracked
by kmemleak, but they are freed when the driver is unloaded. To help
find any real leaks, these false positives are annotated for kmemleak.

staging: r8712u: Merging Realtek's latest (v2.6.6). Tx aggregation.

2011-09-07T00:00:35+00:00

Tx Aggregation (CONFIG_R8712_TX_AGGR, known as CONFIG_USB_TX_AGGR in the
Realtek tarball) is now added.

However, its tests have not been successful! The default in the Realtek
tarball is to not build it -- and the Release Notes does not seem to list this
as a feature. I have tested the driver with and without this feature; the
former does not successfully associate when WPA2 is used.
