     rt2x00: Write the BSSID to register when interface is added

mananged mode in rt2500pci was broken, due to intf->bssid containing
random data rather then the expected 00:00:00:00:00:00

This is corrected by sending the BSSID to rt2x00lib_config_intf
only in AP mode where the bssid is set to a valid value.

Johannes Berg [Wed, 14 Jul 2010 16:34:50 +0000 (09:34 -0700)]
iwlagn: fix firmware loading TLV error path

gcc complains about the firmware loading:

iwl-agn.c: In function ‘iwlagn_load_firmware’:
iwl-agn.c:1860: warning: ‘tlv_len’ may be used uninitialized in this function
iwl-agn.c:1861: warning: ‘tlv_type’ may be used uninitialized in this function
iwl-agn.c:1862: warning: ‘tlv_data’ may be used uninitialized in this function

This is almost correct but we do do break out of the TLV
parsing loop when setting ret. However, the code is hard
to follow, and clearly even the compiler is having issues
with it too.

Additionally, however, the current code is wrong. If there
is a TLV length check error, the code will report
invalid TLV after parsing: ...
because "len" will still be non-zero as we broke out of
the loop.

So to remove the warning and fix that issue, make the code
easier to read by doing length checking with an error label.
As a result, we can completely remove the "ret" variable.

Also, while at it, remove the "fixed_tlv_size" variable
since each TLV type has its own specified length, it just
happens that we have only variable length, flags (0 length)
and u32 TLVs right now. It should still be checked with more
explicit length checks to make it easier to understand.

mac80211: fix IBSS lockdep complaint

Bob reported a lockdep complaint originating in
the mac80211 IBSS code due to the common work
struct patch. The reason is that the IBSS and
station mode code have different locking orders
for the cfg80211 wdev lock and the work struct
(where "locking" implies running/canceling).

Fix this by simply not canceling the work in
the IBSS code, it is not necessary since when
the REQ_RUN bit is cleared, the work will run
without effect if it runs. When the interface
is set down, it is flushed anyway, so there's
no concern about it running after memory has
been invalidated either.

This fixes
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16419

Additionally, looking into this I noticed that
there's a small window while the IBSS is torn
down in which the work may be rescheduled and
the REQ_RUN bit be set again after leave() has
cleared it when a scan finishes at exactly the
same time. Avoid that by setting the ssid_len
to zero before clearing REQ_RUN which signals
to the scan finish code that this interface is
not active.

mac80211: move QoS-enable to BSS info

    mac80211: explicitly disable/enable QoS

mac80211 is telling drivers, in particular
iwlwifi, whether QoS is enabled or not.

However, this is only relevant for station mode,
since only then will any device send nullfunc
frames and need to know whether they should be
QoS frames or not. In other modes, there are
(currently) no frames the device is supposed to
send.

When you now consider virtual interfaces, it
becomes apparent that the current mechanism is
inadequate since it enables/disables QoS on a
global scale, where for nullfunc frames it has
to be on a per-interface scale.

Due to the above considerations, we can change
the way mac80211 advertises the QoS state to
drivers to only ever advertise it as "off" in
station mode, and make it a per-BSS setting.

ath5k: clean up rxlink handling

There were a few places where the sc->rxlink pointer was set to NULL "just in
case". This helps nothing - quite to the contrary it is problematic since it
can create self-linked rx descriptors in the middle of the list of receive
buffers.

Here is an example how this could happen (thanks Bob!):

cpu 0:                                      cpu 1:

ath5k_rx_stop
                                            ath5k_tasklet_rx
sc->rxlink = NULL;   /* just in case */

                                              // buffer to prev.
                                              ath5k_rxbuf_setup()

In the case of ath5k_rx_stop() and ath5k_stop_locked() buffers/descriptors are
not changed so rxlink should not be changed as well.

In ath5k_intr() we seem to  try to work around a hardware bug, as the comment
(which is copied 1:1 from the HAL) suggests. I don't see how this could help.
Also the HAL does not set rxlink in this case (So where does this code come
from? It has been there since the first import of ath5k). Changed to just
increment a statistics counter.

After this patch rxlink is only set to NULL before we initialize rx descriptors
and updated when the descriptors are linked together.

ath9k_hw: fix antenna diversity on AR9285

On AR9285, the antenna switch configuration register uses more than just
16 bits. Because of an arbitrary mask applied to the EEPROM value that
stores this configuration, diversity was broken in some cases, leading
to a significant degradation in signal strength.
Fix this by changing the callback to return a 32 bit value and remove
the arbitrary mask.

rt2x00: Remove set_tim callback from PCI drivers

Using the set_tim callback without managing the DTIM count and the
broad- and multicast buffering in hw, fw or the driver results in wrong
DTIM count values being sent out in beacons. Since all PCI drivers
fetch new beacons periodically and hence get an updated TIM we can just
remove the set_tim callback from these.

The rt2x00 USB drivers don't update the beacon periodically and thus
rely on the set_tim callback to get a correct TIM for beacon
transmission. USB devices still suffer from the DTIM count being wrong
under some circumstances but removing the set_tim callback from these
would cause more harm then good.
