This removes need from drivers to parse the beacon tail/head data to figure out what crypto settings are to be used in AP mode in case the Beacon and Probe Response frames are fully constructed in the driver/firmware.

ath9k_hw_4k_get_eeprom() overrides the eeprom value for txgain if the minor version is not 19 or above with a value of 0. ar9002_hw_init_mode_gain_regs() relies on this information to determine whether this is a high power wifi card or not. The override caused the driver to always use the 'normal' power tables even for high power devices if their minor version was not high enough. Thus leading to reduced power output. This isn't needed for the AR9285; the check originated with the AR9280 setup code which requires the EEPROM version check.

Add a comment pointing out the use of enum station_info_flags for all new struct station_info fields. In addition, memset the sinfo buffer to zero before use on all paths in the current tree to avoid leaving uninitialized pointers in the data.

When a PREQ or PREP is received from an intermediate node, it contains useful information for path selection but it doesn't include the originator's sequence number. Therefore, when updating the mesh path to that intermediate node, we should not set the MESH_PATH_SN_VALID flag. BUT, if the flag is set, it should not be unset as we might have received a valid sequence number for that intermediate node in the past. This issue was reported, fixed and tested by Ya Bo (游波) and Pedro Larbig (ASPj). Signed-off-by: Javier Cardona <javier@cozybit.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

When toggle_irq is called for PCI devices to disable device interrupts it used tasklet_disable to wait for a possibly running tasklet to finish. However, on SMP systems the tasklet might still be scheduled on another CPU. Instead, use tasklet_kill to ensure that all scheduled tasklets are finished before returning from toggle_irq. Furthermore, it was possible that a tasklet reenabled its interrupt even though interrupts have been disabled already. Fix this by checking the DEVICE_STATE_ENABLED_RADIO flag before reenabling single interrupts during tasklet processing. While at it also enable/kill the TBTT and PRETBTT tasklets in the toggle_irq callback and only use tasklet_kill in stop_queue to wait for a currently scheduled beacon update before returning.

Let us enable/disable interrupts based on reference count. By doing this we can ensure that interrupts are never be enabled in the middle of tasklet processing. Instead of addressing corner cases like "ath9k: avoid enabling interrupts while processing rx", this approach handles it in generic manner.

At preset set_interrupt also enables interrupt after changing mask. This is not necessary in all cases and also sometime it breaks the assumption that interrupt was disabled. So let us enable the interrupt explicity if it was disabled earlier. This could also avoid unnecessary register ops and also helps the follow up patch to have global ref count for interrupts ops.

Modify the driver so that it does not function when the interface is down, in preparation for runtime power management. No commands can be run while the interface is down, so the ndo_dev_stop routine now directly does all necessary work (including asking the device to disconnect from the network and disabling multicast functionality) directly. power_save and power_restore hooks are added meaning that card drivers can take steps to turn the device off when the interface is down. The MAC address can now only be changed when all interfaces are down; the new address will be programmed when an interface gets brought up. This matches mac80211 behaviour. Also, some small cleanups/simplifications were made in the surrounding device handling logic. Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake <dsd@laptop.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

Some drivers (ath9k for example) are using skb->protocol to treat EAPOL frames somehow special (disallow aggregation for example). When running in AP mode hostapd injects the EAPOL frames through a monitor interface and thus skb->protocol isn't set at all. Hence, if the injected frame is a data frame and carries a rfc1042 headaer update the skb->protocol field accordingly. Signed-off-by: Helmut Schaa <helmut.schaa@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
