Commit 06e8935f adds an IRQ handling optimization for single-function SDIO cards like this one, but at the same time exposes a small hardware bug. During hardware init, an interrupt is generated with (apparently) no source. Previously, mmc threw this interrupt away, but now (due to the optimization), the mmc layer passes this onto libertas, before it is ready (and before it has enabled interrupts), causing a crash. Work around this hardware bug by registering the IRQ handler later and making it capable of handling interrupts with no cause. The change that makes the IRQ handler registration happen later actually eliminates the spurious interrupt as well. Signed-off-by:

We use priv->mutex to avoid race conditions between iwl_chswitch_done() and iwlagn_mac_channel_switch(), when marking channel switch in progress. But iwl_chswitch_done() can be called in atomic context from iwl_rx_csa() or with mutex already taken from iwlagn_commit_rxon().

Commit 0a35d36d ("cfg80211: Use capability info to detect mesh beacons") assumed that probe response with both ESS and IBSS bits cleared means that the frame was sent by a mesh sta. However, these capabilities are also being used in the p2p_find phase, and the mesh-validation broke it. Rename the WLAN_CAPABILITY_IS_MBSS macro, and verify that mesh ies exist before assuming this frame was sent by a mesh sta. Signed-off-by:

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'.

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. Signed-off-by:

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. Signed-off-by:

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). Signed-off-by:

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. Signed-off-by:

Several crashes in cleanup_once() were reported in recent kernels. Commit d6cc1d64 (inetpeer: various changes) added a race in unlink_from_unused(). One way to avoid taking unused_peers.lock before doing the list_empty() test is to catch 0->1 refcnt transitions, using full barrier atomic operations variants (atomic_cmpxchg() and atomic_inc_return()) instead of previous atomic_inc() and atomic_add_unless() variants. We then call unlink_from_unused() only for the owner of the 0->1 transition. Add a new atomic_add_unless_return() static helper With help from Arun Sharma.

Larry Finger authored
To handle amsdu_8k capability, the PCI routine of this driver must allocate receive buffers of order 2. Under heavy load, this causes fragmentation of memory. The present code releases the current buffer before checking to see if a new one is availble. Recovery from allocation failures is not possible, which results in kernel panics. The fix is to reorder the code to check that a new buffer can be allocated before the old one is released. If not possible, the received frame is dropped and the old one is reused. Without this change, it is impossible to transfer a 2 GB file without a kernel panic. Signed-off-by:

In both trigger_scan and sched_scan operations, we were checking for the SSID length before assigning the value correctly. Since the memory was just kzalloc'ed, the check was always failing and SSID with over 32 characters were allowed to go through. This was causing a buffer overflow when copying the actual SSID to the proper place. This bug has been there since 2.6.29-rc4. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by:

While decoding received event packet from firmware, 4 bytes of interface header are already removed unconditionally. So for handling event only 4 more bytes needs to be pulled. This is achieved by changing event header length to 4. Almost all the events, except BA stream related and AMSDU aggregation control events, do not have the payload in their event skb. Such events handling depends only on the event ID. This event ID is the first four bytes of the event skb, which is copied to a separate variable before pulling the skb header. Hence event handling worked only for those events that didn't have payload in event skb. This patch fixes the broken event path of the events with payload in their event skb without harming existing working event path for the events without payload. Signed-off-by:
