[PATCH] changing CONFIG_LOCALVERSION rebuilds too much, for no good reason

2005-11-09T15:55:57+00:00

This patch removes almost all inclusions of linux/version.h.  The 3
#defines are unused in most of the touched files.

A few drivers use the simple KERNEL_VERSION(a,b,c) macro, which is
unfortunatly in linux/version.h.

There are also lots of #ifdef for long obsolete kernels, this was not
touched.  In a few places, the linux/version.h include was move to where
the LINUX_VERSION_CODE was used.

quilt vi `find * -type f -name "*.[ch]"|xargs grep -El '(UTS_RELEASE|LINUX_VERSION_CODE|KERNEL_VERSION|linux/version.h)'|grep -Ev '(/(boot|coda|drm)/|~$)'`

search pattern:
/UTS_RELEASE\|LINUX_VERSION_CODE\|KERNEL_VERSION\|linux\/\(utsname\|version\).h

[PATCH] hostap: Unregister netdevs before freeing local data

2005-10-04T02:00:09+00:00

Unregister all netdevs before freeing local data. I was unable to
trigger any crashes without this change when running busy loops for
driver operations when ejecting a Prism2 PC Card. Anyway, should there
be a race condition with this, better make it less likely to happen by
unregistering the netdevs first.

[PATCH] hostap: Do not free local->hw_priv before unregistering netdev

2005-10-04T02:00:08+00:00

local->hw_priv was being freed and set to NULL just before calling
prism2_free_local_data(). However, this may expose a race condition in
which something ends up trying to use hw_priv during shutdown. I
haven't noticed this happening, but better be safe than sorry, so
let's postpone hw_priv freeing to happen only after
prism2_free_local_data() has returned.

[PATCH] hostap: Fix hostap_pci build with PRISM2_IO_DEBUG

2005-10-04T02:00:08+00:00

The debug version of I/O functions in hostap_pci had not survived the
change to start using hw_priv pointer, so let's fix them to actually
define the local hw_priv variable.

[PATCH] hostap: Remove hw specific dev_open/close handlers

2005-10-04T02:00:08+00:00

Host AP driver used hardware model specific dev_open/close handlers
that were called on dev_open/close if the hardware driver had
registered the handler. These were only used for hostap_cs and only
for tracking whether any of the netdevs were UP. This information is
already available from local->num_dev_open, so there is not need for
the special open/close handler.

Let's get rid of these handlers. In addition to cleaning up the code,
this fixes a module refcounting issue for hostap_cs where ejecting the
card while any of the netdevs were open did not decrement refcount
properly.

[PATCH] hostap: Remove iwe_stream_add_event kludge

2005-09-24T07:33:51+00:00

Now that we are compiling with -fno-strict-aliasing (this is the
kernel default), we can drop the following kludge for
iwe_stream_add_event().

[PATCH] hostap: Add support for WE-19

2005-09-24T07:33:51+00:00

This patch adds support for WE-19 to the HostAP driver. One of
the major change is the use of an explicit flag to tell if iwstat is
in dBm or not.

[PATCH] hostap: Fix pci_driver name for hostap_plx and hostap_pci

2005-09-24T07:33:51+00:00

hostap_pci and hostap_plx drivers still use PCI driver names
"prism2_pci" and "prism2_plx" respectively.  This is unfriendly to
linux-wlan-ng, which uses the same names.  So, if e.g. hostap_pci and
prism2_pci are loaded, they will "share" /sys/bus/pci/drivers/prism2_plx
directory.

Change PCI driver names of hostap_pci and hostap_plx to be equal to
their module names.
