This adds API to cfg80211 to allow wireless drivers to inform us if their firmware can handle regulatory considerations *and* they cannot map these regulatory domains to an ISO / IEC 3166 alpha2. In these cases we skip the first regulatory hint instead of expecting the driver to build their own regulatory structure, providing us with an alpha2, or using the reg_notifier().

This adds country IE parsing to mac80211 and enables its usage within the new regulatory infrastructure in cfg80211. We parse the country IEs only on management beacons for the BSSID you are associated to and disregard the IEs when the country and environment (indoor, outdoor, any) matches the already processed country IE. To avoid following misinformed or outdated APs we build and use a regulatory domain out of the intersection between what the AP provides us on the country IE and what CRDA is aware is allowed on the same country. A secondary device is allowed to follow only the same country IE as it make no sense for two devices on a system to be in two different countries. In the case the AP is using country IEs for an incorrect country the user may help compliance further by setting the regulatory domain before or after the IE is parsed and in that case another intersection will be performed. CONFIG_WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY is supported but requires CRDA present. Signed-off-by: Luis R.

kobject_uevent_env() can return an error but it just tells us if the uvent was built/sent or not, it doesn't tell us anything about what happened in userspace, whether the udev rule was present nor does it tell us if CRDA was present or not. So remove the informative complaint about it assuming it will tell us such things. Note that you can determine if CRDA is present after loading cfg80211 by using: is_old_static_regdom(cfg80211_regdomain) but this doesn't account for possible user install after initial boot, and also for when the user uses the static EU regulatory domain.

When intersecting it is possible that set_regdom() was called with a regulatory domain which we'll only use as an aid to build a final regulatory domain. Signed-off-by: Luis R.

So far the __set_regdom() code is pretty generic as the intersection case is fairly straight forward; this will however change when 802.11d support is added so lets separate intersection code for now in preparation for 802.11d support. This patch only has slight functional changes. Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <lrodriguez@atheros.com> Acked-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

We have complete control over REGDOM_SET_BY_* enum passed down to __regulatory_hint() as such there is no need to account for unexpected REGDOM_SET_BY_*'s, lets just remove the switch statement as this code does not change and won't change even when we add 802.11d support.

The patch rewrites the mac80211 configure_filter handler to better mapping mac80211 filter flags to iwlwifi hardware filter flags. We now can support 5 mac80211 filter flags: FIF_OTHER_BSS, FIF_ALLMULTI, FIF_PROMISC_IN_BSS, FIF_BCN_PRBRESP_PROMISC and FIF_CONTROL. This patch also avoids reconnecting if the filter flags are changed when the STA is associated. Because rx_assoc is used when full rxon is not necessary.

The callback function write_tx_data() can only fail when our ENTRY_OWNER_DEVICE_DATA flag on a queue entry failed to determine the entry was not available and it is in fact still owned by the hardware. This means that if that function fails the queue must be stopped in mac80211. When rt2x00queue_get_queue() returns NULL in the TX path, it means mac80211 has passed us an invalid queue, although this should be impossible, it shouldn't hurt if we send mac80211 a signal to stop the queue either. Both issues can simply be resolved by removing their manual failure handler and making them use the failure path provided in rt2x00mac_tx().

rt2500usb and rt73usb have different register word sizes, for that reason the register access wrappers were never moved into rt2x00usb. With rt2800usb on its way, we should favor the 32bit register access and move those wrappers into rt2x00usb. That saves duplicate code, since only rt2500usb will need the special 16bit wrappers.

All code which accessed indirect registers was similar in respect to the for-loop, the given timeout, etc. Move it into a seperate function, which for PCI drivers can be moved into rt2x00pci. This allows us to cleanup the cleanup the code further by removing the goto statementsand making the codepath look a bit nicer. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

A new structure hso_mutex_table had to be declared statically & used as as hso_device mutex_lock(&serial->parent->mutex) etc is freed in hso_serial_open & hso_serial_close by kref_put while the mutex is still in use.

Moved serial_open_count in hso_serial_open to prevent crashes owing to the serial structure being made NULL when hso_serial_close is called even though hso_serial_open returned -ENODEV, Alan Cox pointed out this happens, also put in sanity check in hso_serial_close to check for a valid serial structure which should prevent the most reproducable crash in the driver when the hso device is disconnected while in use.

This caused me to get repeatably: tcpdump: pcap_loop: recvfrom: Bad address Happens occassionally when I tcpdump my for-looped test xfers: while [ : ]; do echo -n "$(date '+%s.%N') "; ./sendfile; sleep 20; done Rest of the relevant commands: ethtool -K eth0 tso off tc qdisc add dev eth0 root netem drop 4% tcpdump -n -s0 -i eth0 -w sacklog.all Running net-next under kvm, connection goes to the same host (basically just out of kvm). The connection itself works ok and data gets sent without corruption even with a large number of tests while tcpdump fails usually within less than 5 tests. Whether it only happens because of this change or not, I don't know for sure but it's the only thing with which I've seen that error. The non-cloned variant works w/o it for much longer time. I'm yet to debug where the error actually comes from. Signed-off-by: Ilpo Järvinen <ilpo.jarvinen@helsinki.fi> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The earlier version was just very basic one which is "playing safe" by always clearing the hints. However, clearing of a hint is extremely costly operation with large windows, so it must be avoided at all cost whenever possible, there is a way with shifting too achieve not-clearing.
