rt2x00: Fix QOS sequence counting · 5adf6d63

Ivo van Doorn authored Jul 20, 2008

When IEEE80211_TX_CTL_ASSIGN_SEQ is not set,
the driver should disable hardware sequence counting
to make sure the mac80211 provided counter is used.
This fixes QOS sequence counting, since that is one
of the cases where mac80211 provides a seperate
sequence counter.

By moving the sequence counting code to rt2x00queue
we make sure that _all_ frames get the sequence counter,
including RTS/CTS and Beacon frames.

rt2x00: Fix the beacon length bug · b93ce437

Iwo Mergler authored Jul 19, 2008

When setting up a beacon template, the length of the beacon is
calculated with the assumption that the SKB already contains
the Tx descriptor. In the case of beacons it doesn't.

This patch undoes the damage by adding the Tx descriptor length
to the beacon length. This is safe, because the shortest possible
beacon is longer than the Tx header.

rt2x00: Support for large vendor requests · ed0dbeeb

Iwo Mergler authored Jul 19, 2008

Adds an extra rt2x00 vendor request function to support register
transfers beyond the CSR_CACHE_SIZE / USB packet size limit. This
is useful for firmware uploads, beacon templates and keys, all
of which are to large to do with a single USB request.

rt2x00: Fix EIFS timing value · f2fdbc48

Ivo van Doorn authored Jul 19, 2008

Olivier reported a difference between the EIFS
values used in the legacy driver and the one in
the rt2x00 drivers.

In rt2x00 the value was
	( SIFS + (8 * (IEEE80211_HEADER + ACK_SIZE)) )
which comes down to 314us while the legacy driver uses the value 364us

This was caused because EIFS is: SIFS + DIFS + AckTime
This patch will fix this by adding the DIFS by the above value,
and creating a SHORT_EIFS define which uses the SHORT_DIFS.

rfkill: mutex fixes · 064af111

Henrique de Moraes Holschuh authored Jul 21, 2008

There are two mutexes in rfkill:

rfkill->mutex, which protects some of the fields of a rfkill struct, and is
also used for callback serialization.

rfkill_mutex, which protects the global state, the list of registered
rfkill structs and rfkill->claim.

Make sure to use the correct mutex, and to not miss locking rfkill->mutex
even when we already took rfkill_mutex.

rfkill: fix led-trigger unregister order in error unwind · 37f55e9d

Henrique de Moraes Holschuh authored Jul 21, 2008

rfkill needs to unregister the led trigger AFTER a call to
rfkill_remove_switch(), otherwise it will not update the LED state,
possibly leaving it ON when it should be OFF.

To make led-trigger unregistering safer, guard against unregistering a
trigger twice, and also against issuing trigger events to a led trigger
that was unregistered.  This makes the error unwind paths more resilient.

Refer to "rfkill: Register LED triggers before registering switch".
