hostap_cs: fix sleeping function called from invalid context

2011-03-31T18:57:53+00:00

commit 4e5518ca53be29c1ec3c00089c97bef36bfed515 upstream. pcmcia_request_irq() and pcmcia_enable_device() are intended to be called from process context (first function allocate memory with GFP_KERNEL, second take a mutex). We can not take spin lock and call them. It's safe to move spin lock after pcmcia_enable_device() as we still hold off IRQ until dev->base_addr is 0 and driver will not proceed with interrupts when is not ready.

hostap_pci: set dev->base_addr during probe

2010-07-14T17:49:46+00:00

"hostap: Protect against initialization interrupt" (which reinstated "wireless: hostap, fix oops due to early probing interrupt") reintroduced Bug 16111. This is because hostap_pci wasn't setting dev->base_addr, which is now checked in prism2_interrupt. As a result, initialization was failing for PCI-based hostap devices. This corrects that oversight.

hostap: Protect against initialization interrupt

Use an irq spinlock to hold off the IRQ handler until enough early card init is complete such that the handler can run without faulting. Signed-off-by: Tim Gardner Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

pcmcia: dev_node removal (write-only drivers)

2010-05-10T08:23:14+00:00

dev_node_t was only used to transport some minor/major numbers from the PCMCIA device drivers to deprecated userspace helpers. However, only a few drivers made use of it, and the userspace helpers are deprecated anyways. Therefore, get rid of dev_node_t . As a first step, remove any usage of dev_node_t from drivers which only wrote to this typedef/struct, but did not make use of it.

pcmcia: re-work pcmcia_request_irq()

2010-05-10T08:23:13+00:00

Instead of the old pcmcia_request_irq() interface, drivers may now choose between: - calling request_irq/free_irq directly. Use the IRQ from *p_dev->irq. - use pcmcia_request_irq(p_dev, handler_t); the PCMCIA core will clean up automatically on calls to pcmcia_disable_device() or device ejection. - drivers still not capable of IRQF_SHARED (or not telling us so) may use the deprecated pcmcia_request_exclusive_irq() for the time being; they might receive a shared IRQ nonetheless.
