The smp_chan_create function may return NULL, e.g. in the case of memory allocation failure, so we always need to check for this. Signed-off-by: Johan Hedberg <johan.hedberg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>

Since the whole HCI command, event and data packet processing has been migrated to use workqueues instead of tasklets, it makes sense to use struct delayed_work instead of struct timer_list for the timeout handling. This patch converts the hdev->cmd_timer to use workqueue as well. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org> Signed-off-by: Johan Hedberg <johan.hedberg@intel.com>

The SKB for L2CAP sockets are all allocated in a central callback in the socket support.

There are several exit path from the PCI probe function. Some of them, that are taken in case of errors, forget to set the "err" variable, that is returned by the probe function. This can lead to the kernel thinking the probe function succeeds while it didn't, and this in turn causes extra calls to the "remove" function. This patch fix this problem by ensuring "err" variable is assigned to a proper non-zero value in each exit path. Signed-off-by: Andrea Merello <andrea.merello@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

All boards supported by this driver could work using PIO or MMIO for accessing registers. This driver tries to access HW by using MMIO, and, if this fails for somewhat reason, the driver tries to fall back to PIO mode. MMIO-mode is straightforward on all boards. PIO-mode is straightforward on rtl8180 only. On rtl8185 and rtl8187se boards not all registers are directly available in PIO mode (they are paged). On rtl8185 there are two pages and it is known how to switch page. PIO mode works, except for only one access to a register out of default page, recently added by me in the initialization code with patch: rtl818x_pci: Fix rtl8185 excessive IFS after CTS-to-self This can be easily fixed to work in both cases (MMIO and PIO). On rtl8187se, for a number of reasons, there is much more work to do to fix PIO access. PIO access is currently broken on rtl8187se, and it never worked. This patch fixes the said register write for rtl8185 and makes the driver to fail cleanly if PIO mode is attempted with rtl8187se boards. While doing this, I converted also a couple of printk(KERN_ERR) to dev_err(), in order to make checkpatch happy. Signed-off-by: Andrea Merello <andrea.merello@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

Currently the driver configures mac80211 to provide two rates for each TX frame: One initial rate and one alternate fallback rate, each one with its retry count. HW does not support fully this: rtl8180 doesn't have support for rate scaling at all, and rtl8185/rtl8187SE supports it in a way that does not fit with mac80211: The HW does automatically fall back to the next lower rate, and only a lower limit can be specified, so the HW may TX also on rates in between the two rates specified by mac80211. Furthermore only the total TX retry count can be specified for each packet, while the number of TX attempts before scaling rate can be configured only globally (not per each packet). Currently the driver sets the HW auto rate fallback mechanism to quickly scale rate after a couple of retries, and it uses the alternate rate requested by mac80211 as fallback limit rate (and it does this even wrongly). The HW indeed will behave differently than what mac80211 mandates, that is probably undesirable, and the reported TX retry count may not refer to what mac80211 thinks, and this could fool mac80211. This patch makes the driver to declare to mac80211 to support only one rate configuration for each packet, and it does disable the HW auto rate fallback mechanism, relying only on SW and letting mac80211 to do all by itself. This should ensure correct operation and fairness respect to mac80211. Indeed here tests with iperf do not show significant performance differences.

HW is programmed with wrong retry count value for TX: Mac80211 passes to driver the number of times the TX should be attempted. The HW, instead, wants the number of time the TX should be retried if it fails the first time (assuming we have to TX it at least one time). This patch correct this.

Rtl8187se support has been added to the rtl818x_pci driver by extracting a lot of information from a rtl8187se Linux staging driver included in the kernel at the time rtl8187se support was added. The rtl818x_pci main file has a comment that advertises this. Recently this staging driver has been removed from the kernel, but I still feel it can be useful as "reference" code (in case of bugs, or to implement improvements in rtl818x_pci driver). This one-line patch adds a comment in rtl818x_pci driver to point people searching for that "reference code" to the last kernel version still containing it (3.14).

Measuring time between _end_ of CTS-to-self and _end_ of datapacket (with a prism54 board and mac80211 hacked to let the MAC timestamp stay untouched in the radiotap header) resulted in about 300uS, while the datapacket itself should be by far shorter (less than 100uS) and IFS should be SIFS (10uS). This measure was confirmed whith a scope: about 250uS IFS has been seen between the two packets. This situation causes the CTS-to-self protection mechanism to work incorrectly due to the NAV expiring during, or even before beginning, the packet transmission, and it also causes the performances to be anyway reduced due to time waste. This problem has been seen at every packet TXed with CTS-to-self enabled on rtl8185 board. rtl8187se seems not affected (and rtl8180, being a 802.11b card, does not have CTS-to-self mechaninsm). This patch fixes this by adding a magic register write, making the board wait for correct SIFS after CTS-to-self packet.

BSSID register was written with six byte-writes. It seems that, similarly to what happens with MAC registers, they needs to be written with one 16-bit and one 32-bit writes, otherwise the write does not work. The byte write didn't work only on my rtl8185, while it worked on rtl8180 and rtl8187se, BTW since there are probably a number of different ASIC revisions out of there, I let the change to affect all cards. It shouldn't hurt anyway. Signed-off-by: Andrea Merello <andrea.merello@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

The patch fixes a couple of issues: - absence of deallocation of rsi_dev->rx_usb_urb[0] in the driver; - potential NULL pointer dereference because of lack of checks for memory allocation success in rsi_init_usb_interface(). By the way, it makes rsi_probe() returning error code instead of 1 and fixes comments regarding returning values. Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).

Earlier the listen interval is used to decide switching between operating and off-channels during bgscan and to improve throughput, the listen interval is reduced to 1. After optimiztion in scan state machine, listen period is not used for decision making and hence reverting it back to original value.
