2014-02-05mac80211: add length check in ieee80211_is_robust_mgmt_frame()Johannes Berg4-4/+4
A few places weren't checking that the frame passed to the function actually has enough data even though the function clearly documents it must have a payload byte. Make this safer by changing the function to take an skb and checking the length inside. The old version is preserved for now as the rtl* drivers use it and don't have a correct skb.

2014-02-05mac80211: remove module handling from rate control opsJohannes Berg1-1/+0
There's not a single rate control algorithm actually in a separate module where the module refcount would be required. Similarly, there's no specific rate control module. Therefore, all the module handling code in rate control is really just dead code, so remove it. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2014-02-05mac80211: make rate control ops constJohannes Berg1-1/+1
Change the code to allow making all the rate control ops const, nothing ever needs to change them. Also change all drivers to make use of this and mark the ops const. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2014-01-04rtlwifi: use ether_addr_equal_64bitsJulia Lawall2-4/+4
Ether_addr_equal_64bits is more efficient than ether_addr_equal, and can be used when each argument is an array within a structure that contains at least two bytes of data beyond the array.

2013-11-11rtlwifi: Fix endian error in extracting packet typeMark Cave-Ayland2-57/+42
All of the rtlwifi drivers have an error in the routine that tests if the data is "special". If it is, the subsequant transmission will be at the lowest rate to enhance reliability. The 16-bit quantity is big-endian, but was being extracted in native CPU mode. One of the effects of this bug is to inhibit association under some conditions as the TX rate is too high. Based on suggestions by Joe Perches, the entire routine is rewritten. One of the local headers contained duplicates of some of the ETH_P_XXX definitions. These are deleted.

Instead, don't free the elements of efuse_word if kmalloc failed. Also, kmalloc of any of the arrays in efuse_word[] can also fail, leading to undefined contents in the remaining elements leading to problems when free'ing these elements later on.

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 <davem@davemloft.net>
