Simplify the rt2x00queue_insert_l2pad function by handling the alignment operations one by one. Do not special case special circumstances. Basically first perform header alignment, and then perform payload alignment (if any payload does exist). This results in a properly aligned skb. The end result is better readable code, with better results, as now L2 padding is inserted only when a payload is actually present in the frame.

With the improved L2 padding code, this flag is no longer necessary, as the rt2x00queue_remove_l2pad is capable of detecting by itself if L2 padding is applied. For received frames the RX descriptor flag is still being checked. Signed-off-by: Gertjan van Wingerde <gwingerde@gmail.com> Acked-by: Ivo van Doorn <ivdoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

Fix a couple of more bugs in the L2 padding code: 1. Compute the amount of L2 padding correctly (in 3 places). 2. Trim the skb correctly when the L2 padding has been applied. Also introduce a central macro the compute the L2 padding size. Signed-off-by: Gertjan van Wingerde <gwingerde@gmail.com> Acked-by: Ivo van Doorn <ivdoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

Otherwise we end up truncating the skb before removing the l2pad thus we might have the truncated part become garbage while getting it back in remove_l2pad. For the same issue: remove the skb_trim from the rt2800 fill_rxdone (it is done after l2pad removal in rt2x00lib_rxdone).

Do not need to log error when fail the sensitivity command, driver will send sensitivity write command to uCode after each sensitivity calibration if station is associated with AP. It is a normal case when user unload the module or shutdown the system while still associated with the AP, since uCode already on the way down, it will not reply the sensitivity write request; report error in this case will give misleading information, remove the error checking here to provide a clean shutdown if no other error detected.

This feature enables the on-screen uCode event log dump. The original method will append the event log to syslog; with this capability, we also enable the user to write script to capture the events which provide additional flexibility to help uCode debugging Method 1) change to debugfs directory (sys/kernel/debug/phyX/iwlagn/data) 2) #cat log_event Signed-off-by: Wey-Yi Guy <wey-yi.w.guy@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

In order to help uCode debugging, adding the capability to provide continuous uCode event logging function. uCode events is located in round-robin event queue and filled by uCode, by enable continuous event logging, driver check the write pointer and log the newly added events in iwl_bg_ucode_trace() timer function. There is still possibility of missing events if event queue being wrapped before next event dump; but with this capability, we can have much better understanding of the uCode behavior during runtime; it can help to debug the uCode related issues. Methods to enable/disable the continuous event log: step 1: enable ucode trace timer "echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phyX/iwlagn/debug/ucode_tracing" step 2: start ftrace sudo ./trace-cmd record -e iwlwifi_ucode:* sleep 1d step 3: stop ftrace sudo ./trace-cmd report trace.dat step 4: disable ucode trace timer "echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phyX/iwlagn/debug/ucode_tracing" use "ucode_tracing" debugfs file to display number of event queue wrapped when driver attempt the continuous event logging. If event queue being wrapped more than once when driver has opportunity to log the event; it indicated there are events missing in the event log trace. This continuous event log function only available for 4965 and newer NICs.

This patch provides infrastructure for machine translation of the regulatory rules database used by CRDA into a C data structure. It includes code for searching that database as an alternative to dynamic regulatory rules updates via CRDA. Most people should use CRDA instead of this infrastructure, but it provides a better alternative than the WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY infrastructure (which can now be removed). Signed-off-by: John W.

The payload alignment warning enabled by MAC80211_DEBUG_PACKET_ALIGNMENT is difficult. To fix it, a firmware change is needed but in most cases that's very difficult. So the benefit from the warning is low and most probably it just creates more confusion for people who just enable all warnings (like it did for me). Remove the unaligned IP payload warning and the kconfig option. But leave the unaligned packet warning, it will be enabled with MAC80211_VERBOSE_DEBUG.

For bluetooth 3, we will most likely not have a netdev for a virtual interface (sdata), so prepare for that by reducing the reliance on having a netdev. This patch moves the name and address fields into the sdata struct and uses them from there all over. Some work is needed to keep them sync'ed, but that's not a lot of work and in slow paths anyway. In doing so, this also reduces the number of pointer dereferences in many places, because of things like sdata->dev->dev_addr becoming sdata->vif.addr.

The station management currently uses the virtual interface, but you cannot add the same station to multiple virtual interfaces if you're communicating with it in multiple ways. This restriction should be lifted so that in the future we can, for instance, support bluetooth 3 with an access point that mac80211 is already associated to. We can do that by requiring all sta_info_get users to provide the virtual interface and making the RX code aware that an address may match more than one station struct. Thanks to the previous patches this one isn't all that large and except for the RX and TX status paths changes has low complexity.

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/254837 Spurious shared interrupts or early probing interrupts can cause the hostap interrupt handler to oops before the driver has fully configured the IO base port addresses. In some cases the oops can be because the hardware shares an interrupt line, on other cases it is due to a race condition between probing for the hardware and configuring the IO base port. The latter occurs because the probing is required to determin the hardware port address which is only determined when the probe can interrupt the hardware (catch 22). This patch catches this pre-configured condition to avoid the oops.

Previously, cfg80211 had reported "0" for MCS (i.e. 802.11n) bitrates through the wireless extensions interface. However, nl80211 was converting MCS rates into a reasonable bitrate number. This patch moves the nl80211 code to cfg80211 where it is now shared between both the nl80211 interface and the wireless extensions interface. Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
