iwl4965: correctly validate temperature value

2011-06-01T18:41:13+00:00

In some cases we can read wrong temperature value. If after that
temperature value will not be updated to good one, we badly configure
tx power parameters and device is unable to send a data.

ath9k: fix two more bugs in tx power

2011-06-01T18:35:54+00:00

This is the same fix as

   commit 841051602e3fa18ea468fe5a177aa92b6eb44b56
   Author: Matteo Croce 
   Date:   Fri Dec 3 02:25:08 2010 +0100

   The ath9k driver subtracts 3 dBm to the txpower as with two radios the
   signal power is doubled.
   The resulting value is assigned in an u16 which overflows and makes
   the card work at full power.

in two more places. I grepped the ath tree and didn't find any others.

zd1211rw: fix to work on OHCI

2011-05-31T18:47:26+00:00

zd1211 devices register 'EP 4 OUT' endpoint as Interrupt type on USB 2.0:

      Endpoint Descriptor:
        bLength                 7
        bDescriptorType         5
        bEndpointAddress     0x04  EP 4 OUT
        bmAttributes            3
          Transfer Type            Interrupt
          Synch Type               None
          Usage Type               Data
        wMaxPacketSize     0x0040  1x 64 bytes
        bInterval               1

However on USB 1.1 endpoint becomes Bulk:

      Endpoint Descriptor:
        bLength                 7
        bDescriptorType         5
        bEndpointAddress     0x04  EP 4 OUT
        bmAttributes            2
          Transfer Type            Bulk
          Synch Type               None
          Usage Type               Data
        wMaxPacketSize     0x0040  1x 64 bytes
        bInterval               0

Commit 37939810b937aba830dd751291fcdc51cae1a6cb assumed that endpoint is
always interrupt type and changed usb_bulk_msg() calls to usb_interrupt_msg().

Problem here is that usb_bulk_msg() on interrupt endpoint selfcorrects the
call and changes requested pipe to interrupt type (see usb_bulk_msg).
However with usb_interrupt_msg() on bulk endpoint does not correct the
pipe type to bulk, but instead URB is submitted with interrupt type pipe.

So pre-2.6.39 used usb_bulk_msg() and therefore worked with both endpoint
types, however in 2.6.39 usb_interrupt_msg() with bulk endpoint causes
ohci_hcd to fail submitted URB instantly with -ENOSPC and preventing zd1211rw
from working with OHCI.

Fix this by detecting endpoint type and using correct endpoint/pipe types
for URB. Also fix asynchronous zd_usb_iowrite16v_async() to use right
URB type on 'EP 4 OUT'.

wl12xx: fix oops in sched_scan when forcing a passive scan

2011-05-31T18:47:26+00:00

Fix kernel oops when trying to use passive scheduled scans.  The
reason was that in passive scans there are no SSIDs, so there was a
NULL pointer dereference.

To solve the problem, we now check the number of SSIDs provided in the
sched_scan request and only access the list if there's one or more
(ie. passive scan is not forced).  We also force all the channels to
be passive by adding the IEEE80211_CHAN_PASSIVE_SCAN flag locally
before the checks in the wl1271_scan_get_sched_scan_channels()
function.

wl12xx: add separate config value for DFS dwell time on sched scan

2011-05-31T18:47:25+00:00

Use a different value for DFS dwell time when performing a scheduled
scan.  Previously we were using the same value as for normal passive
scans.  This adds some flexibility between these two different types
of passive scan.

For now we use 150 TUs for DFS channel dwell time.  This may need to
be fine-tuned in the future.

wl12xx: fix DFS channels handling in scheduled scan

2011-05-31T18:47:25+00:00

DFS channels were never getting included in the scheduled scans,
because they always contain the passive flag as well and the call was
asking for DFS and active channels.

Fix this by ignoring the passive flag when collecting DFS channels.
Also, move the DFS channels in the channel list before the 5GHz active
channels (this was implemented in the FW differently than specified).

wl12xx: fix passive and radar channel generation for scheduled scan

2011-05-31T18:47:24+00:00

We were comparing bitwise AND results with a boolean, so when the
boolean was set to true, it was not matching as it should.

Fix this by booleanizing the bitwise AND results with !!.

libertas: Set command sequence number later to ensure consistency

2011-05-31T18:47:23+00:00

Before this patch, the command sequence number is being set before
lbs_queue_cmd() adds the command to the queue. However, lbs_queue_cmd()
sometimes forces commands to queue-jump (e.g. CMD_802_11_WAKEUP_CONFIRM).
It currently does this without considering that sequence numbers might need
adjusting to keep things running in order.

Fix this by setting the sequence number at a later stage, just before
we're actually submitting the command to the hardware. Also fixes a
possible race where seqnum was being modified outside of the driver
lock.
