Radio calibration (chain noise and sensitivity) should be allowed to be disabled from debugfs if compiled with CONFIG_IWLWIFI_DEBUGFS. For both 6000g2a and 6000g2b, the parameters are missing in "cfg", which cause user can not disable the radio calibration manually; add the support to allow the operation.

When resuming from hibernate or suspend, the status of the rfkill switch isn't known since it might have been toggled while the system was asleep. Therefore, we need to read out the status at resume time to make sure the system knows about an up-to-date status.

The rate table in the bcast LQ is computed only when the station is allocated, and chooses the lowest rate for the band. Because of when this occurs, this is the 2.4 GHz band and uses the 0x420a (CCK, 1 Mbps) rate. In 5 GHz beaconing mode, this rate will prevent beacons from being sent and any other packets from being received. We can fix this by re-initializing the bcast station's LQ command when the channel is changed.

This bit need to be set for both RTS/CTS or CTS-to-self protection, if CTS-to-self is used, then uCode will check the RXON_FLG_SELF_CTS_EN status. Change the name from TX_CMD_FLG_RTS_CTS_MSK to TX_CMD_FLAG_PROT_REQUIRE_MSK to match the behavior of the bit setting.

When building tx command, always set TX_CMD_FLAG_PROT_REQUIRE_MSK for 5000 series and up. Without setting this bit the firmware will not examine the RTS/CTS setting and thus not send traffic with the appropriate protection. RTS/CTS is is required for HT traffic in a noisy environment where, without this setting, connections will stall on some hardware as documented in the patch that initially attempted to address this: commit 1152dcc2 Author: Wey-Yi Guy <wey-yi.w.guy@intel.com> Date: Fri Jan 15 13:42:58 2010 -0800 iwlwifi: Fix throughput stall issue in HT mode for 5000 Similar to 6000 and 1000 series, RTS/CTS is the recommended protection mechanism for 5000 series in HT mode based on the HW design. Using RTS/CTS will better protect the inner exchange from interference, especially in highly-congested environment, it also prevent uCode encounter TX FIFO underrun and other HT mode related performance issues. For 3945 and 4965, different flags are used for RTS/CTS or CTS-to-Self protection. Signed-off-by: Wey-Yi Guy <wey-yi.w.guy@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com>

commit 3474ad63 Author: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Date: Thu Apr 29 04:43:05 2010 -0700 iwlwifi: apply filter flags directly broke multicast. The reason, it turns out, is that the code previously checked if ALLMULTI _changed_, which the new code no longer did, and normally it _never_ changes. Had somebody changed it manually, the code prior to my patch there would have been broken already. The reason is that we always, unconditionally, ask the device to pass up all multicast frames, but the new code made it depend on ALLMULTI which broke it since now we'd pass up multicast frames depending on the default filter in the device, which isn't necessarily what we want (since we don't program it right now). Fix this by simply not checking allmulti as we have allmulti behaviour enabled already anyway.

In preparation for a TX power setting interface in the nl80211, change the .set_tx_power function to use mBm units instead of dBm for greater accuracy and smaller power levels. Also, already in advance move the tx_power_setting enumeration to nl80211. This change affects the .tx_set_power function prototype. As a result, the corresponding changes are needed to modules using it. These are mac80211, iwmc3200wifi and rndis_wlan.

The driver at76c50x-usb is unable to authenticate with an AP since kernel 2.6.31 for the following reason: The join command of the firmware needs to be sent with the right bssid before any transmission can start. Before kernel 2.6.31 mac80211 informed its drivers about the changing bssid early enough for at76c50x-usb but during the development of 2.6.31 mac80211's behaviour changed. Now a new bssid is set after the association. This patch changes the tx routine of the driver at76c50x-usb in such a way that a new bssid is extracted from an authentication frame and the join command with that bssid is processed.

This patch does a simple code move of at76_join() so that at76_mac80211_tx() follows at76_join() in the driver's source file. This is a preparatory patch for the following patch where we need to call at76_join() from at76_mac80211_tx() in order to authenticate successfully with a bssid.

While mesh_rx_plink_frame holds sta->lock... mesh_rx_plink_frame -> mesh_plink_inc_estab_count -> ieee80211_bss_info_change_notify ...but ieee80211_bss_info_change_notify is allowed to sleep. A driver taking advantage of that allowance can cause a scheduling while atomic bug. Similar paths exist for mesh_plink_dec_estab_count, so work around those as well. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16099 Also, correct a minor kerneldoc comment error (mismatched function names).

There are few places where ANI is started without checking if it is right to start. This might lead to a case where ani timer would be left undeleted and cause improper memory acccess during module unload. This bug is clearly exposed with paprd support where the driver detects tx hang and does a chip reset. During this reset ani is (re)started without checking if it needs to be started. This would leave a timer scheduled even after all the resources are freed and cause a panic. This patch introduces a bit in sc_flags to indicate if ani needs to be started in sw_scan_start() and ath_reset(). This would fix the following panic. This issue is easily seen with ar9003 + paprd.
