Fix nomenclature for USB and PCI wireless devices

2023-08-25T09:56:49+00:00

A mouse that uses a USB connection is called a "USB mouse" device (or "USB mouse" for short), not a "mouse USB" device. By analogy, a WiFi adapter that connects to the host computer via USB is a "USB wireless" device, not a "wireless USB" device. (The latter term more properly refers to a defunct Wireless USB specification, which described a technology for sending USB protocol messages over an ultra wideband radio link.) Similarly for a WiFi adapter card that plugs into a PCIe slot: It is a "PCIe wireless" device, not a "wireless PCIe" device. Rephrase the text in the kernel source where the word ordering is wrong.

wifi: drivers: Explicitly include correct DT includes

2023-08-01T14:48:38+00:00

The DT of_device.h and of_platform.h date back to the separate of_platform_bus_type before it as merged into the regular platform bus. As part of that merge prepping Arm DT support 13 years ago, they "temporarily" include each other. They also include platform_device.h and of.h. As a result, there's a pretty much random mix of those include files used throughout the tree. In order to detangle these headers and replace the implicit includes with struct declarations, users need to explicitly include the correct includes.

wifi: hostap: fix stringop-truncations GCC warning

With GCC 13.1 and W=1 hostap has a warning: drivers/net/wireless/intersil/hostap/hostap_ioctl.c:3633:17: warning: 'strncpy' specified bound 16 equals destination size [-Wstringop-truncation] fortify-string.h recommends not to use strncpy() so use strscpy() which fixes the warning.

wifi: orinoco: Fix an error handling path in orinoco_cs_probe()

2023-05-25T16:15:40+00:00

Should orinoco_cs_config() fail, some resources need to be released as already done in the remove function. While at it, remove a useless and erroneous comment. The probe is orinoco_cs_probe(), not orinoco_cs_attach().

wifi: add HAS_IOPORT dependencies

2023-05-25T16:08:30+00:00

In a future patch HAS_IOPORT=n will result in inb()/outb() and friends not being declared. We thus need to add HAS_IOPORT as dependency for those drivers using them.

wifi: orinoco: check return value of hermes_write_wordrec()

2023-01-16T16:22:24+00:00

There is currently no return check for writing an authentication type (HERMES_AUTH_SHARED_KEY or HERMES_AUTH_OPEN). It looks like it was accidentally skipped. This patch adds a return check similar to the other checks in __orinoco_hw_setup_enc() for hermes_write_wordrec(). Detected using the static analysis tool - Svace.
