orinoco: replace function ieee80211_{dsss_chan_to_freq, freq_to_dsss_chan}

2014-02-28T19:12:36+00:00

Replace ieee80211_{dsss_chan_to_freq, freq_to_dsss_chan} with more generic ieee80211_{channel_to_frequency, frequency_to_channel}. File has already been included. It's safe to use IEEE80211_BAND_2GHZ here. This change is a preparation for the removal of function ieee80211_{dsss_chan_to_freq, freq_to_dsss_chan}. Signed-off-by: Zhao, Gang Signed-off-by: John W.

wireless: delete non-required instances of include

2014-01-03T20:37:01+00:00

None of these files are actually using any __init type directives and hence don't need to include . Most are just a left over from __devinit and __cpuinit removal, or simply due to code getting copied from one driver to the next.

John W. Linville says: ==================== Regarding the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says: "The big work here is from Marcel and Johan. They did a lot of work in the L2CAP, HCI and MGMT layers. The most important ones are the addition of a new MGMT command to enable/disable LE advertisement and the introduction of the HCI user channel to allow applications to get directly and exclusive access to Bluetooth devices." As to the ath10k bits, Kalle says: "Bartosz dropped support for qca98xx hw1.0 hardware from ath10k, it's just too much to support it. Michal added support for the new firmware interface. Marek fixed WEP in AP and IBSS mode. Rest of the changes are minor fixes or cleanups." And also: "Major changes are: * throughput improvements including aligning the RX frames correctly and optimising HTT layer (Michal) * remove qca98xx hw1.0 support (Bartosz) * add support for firmware version 999.999.0.636 (Michal) * firmware htt statistics support (Kalle) * fix WEP in AP and IBSS mode (Marek) * fix a mutex unlock balance in debugfs file (Shafi) And of course there's a lot of smaller fixes and cleanup." For the wl12xx bits, Luca says: "Here are some patches intended for 3.13. Eliad is upstreaming a bunch of patches that have been pending in the internal tree. Mostly bugfixes and other small improvements." Along with that... Arend and friends bring us a batch of brcmfmac updates, Larry Finger offers some rtlwifi refactoring, and Sujith sends the usual batch of ath9k updates. As usual, there are a number of other small updates from a variety of players as well. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

wireless: orinoco: remove unnecessary pci_set_drvdata()

2013-09-26T19:13:44+00:00

The driver core clears the driver data to NULL after device_release or on probe failure. Thus, it is not needed to manually clear the device driver data to NULL. Signed-off-by: Jingoo Han Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

orinoco: Remove extern from function prototypes

2013-09-25T01:06:22+00:00

There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern in the kernel sources. Standardize on not using extern for function prototypes. Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern. extern is assumed by the compiler. Its use is as unnecessary as using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.

orinoco_usb: fix memory leak in ezusb_access_ltv() when device disconnected

2013-06-14T17:37:16+00:00

If "device is disconnected" check occurs to be true in ezusb_access_ltv(), it just return -ENODEV. But that means request_context is leaked since there are no any references to it anymore. The patch adds a call to ezusb_request_context_put() before return. Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org). Signed-off-by: Alexey Khoroshilov Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

Pull networking updates from David Miller: "Highlights (1721 non-merge commits, this has to be a record of some sort): 1) Add 'random' mode to team driver, from Jiri Pirko and Eric Dumazet. 2) Make it so that any driver that supports configuration of multiple MAC addresses can provide the forwarding database add and del calls by providing a default implementation and hooking that up if the driver doesn't have an explicit set of handlers. From Vlad Yasevich. 3) Support GSO segmentation over tunnels and other encapsulating devices such as VXLAN, from Pravin B Shelar. 4) Support L2 GRE tunnels in the flow dissector, from Michael Dalton. 5) Implement Tail Loss Probe (TLP) detection in TCP, from Nandita Dukkipati. 6) In the PHY layer, allow supporting wake-on-lan in situations where the PHY registers have to be written for it to be configured. Use it to support wake-on-lan in mv643xx_eth. From Michael Stapelberg. 7) Significantly improve firewire IPV6 support, from YOSHIFUJI Hideaki. 8) Allow multiple packets to be sent in a single transmission using network coding in batman-adv, from Martin Hundebøll. 9) Add support for T5 cxgb4 chips, from Santosh Rastapur. 10) Generalize the VXLAN forwarding tables so that there is more flexibility in configurating various aspects of the endpoints. From David Stevens. 11) Support RSS and TSO in hardware over GRE tunnels in bxn2x driver, from Dmitry Kravkov. 12) Zero copy support in nfnelink_queue, from Eric Dumazet and Pablo Neira Ayuso. 13) Start adding networking selftests. 14) In situations of overload on the same AF_PACKET fanout socket, or per-cpu packet receive queue, minimize drop by distributing the load to other cpus/fanouts.

From Yuchung Cheng. 19) Provide netlink socket diag of netlink sockets ("Yo dawg, I hear you like netlink, so I implemented netlink dumping of netlink sockets.") From Andrey Vagin. 20) Remove ugly passing of rtnetlink attributes into rtnl_doit functions, from Thomas Graf. 21) Allow userspace to be able to see if a configuration change occurs in the middle of an address or device list dump, from Nicolas Dichtel. 22) Support RFC3168 ECN protection for ipv6 fragments, from Hannes Frederic Sowa. 23) Increase accuracy of packet length used by packet scheduler, from Jason Wang. 24) Beginning set of changes to make ipv4/ipv6 fragment handling more scalable and less susceptible to overload and locking contention, from Jesper Dangaard Brouer. 25) Get rid of using non-type-safe NLMSG_* macros and use nlmsg_*() instead. From Hong Zhiguo. 26) Optimize route usage in IPVS by avoiding reference counting where possible, from Julian Anastasov. 27) Convert IPVS schedulers to RCU, also from Julian Anastasov. 28) Support cpu fanouts in xt_NFQUEUE netfilter target, from Holger Eitzenberger. 29) Network namespace support for nf_log, ebt_log, xt_LOG, ipt_ULOG, nfnetlink_log, and nfnetlink_queue.
