2009-02-27nl80211: Avoid AP mode BUG_ON hang with invalid lock assertJouni Malinen
"cfg80211: add assert_cfg80211_lock() to ensure proper protection" added assert_cfg80211_lock() calls into various places. At least one of them, nl80211_send_wiphy(), should not have been there. That triggers the BUG_ON in assert_cfg80211_lock() and pretty much kills the kernel whenever someone runs hostapd.. Remove that call and make assert_cfg80211_lock() use WARN_ON instead of BUG_ON to be a bit more friendly to users.

2009-02-27mac80211: Don't merge with the same BSSIDAlina Friedrichsen
It was not a good idea to do a TSF reset on strange IBSS merges to the same BSSID. For example it will break the TSF sync of ath9k completely and it is unnecessary as all hardware I have tested do a TSF sync to a higher value automatically and IBSS merges are only done to higher TSF values. It only need a TSF reset to accept a lower value, when the IBSS network is changed manually. Signed-off-by: Alina Friedrichsen <x-alina@gmx.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

2009-02-27orinoco: prevent accessing memory outside the firmware imageDavid Kilroy
Do this by indicating the end of the appropriate regions of memory. Note that MAX_PDA_SIZE should only apply to the PDA block read from flash/EEPROM, and has been erronously applied to the pdr elements. Remove the macro, and use the actual PDA size passed down by the caller. We also fix up some of the types used, marking as much as possible const, and using void* for the end pointers.

2009-02-27at76c50x-usb: additional disconnect fixesJason Andryuk
Additional attempts to fix Oops on disconnect, that appear to be successful. However, some may be extraneous. The cancel_delayed_work call is probably the most necessary. The device_unplugged check may not be necessary. del_timer_sync may not be necessary either, but the Oops I was receiving was related to timers. Hence the addition.

2009-02-27ath9k: follow beacon hints on reg_notifier when world roamingLuis R. Rodriguez

2009-02-27cfg80211: Add AP beacon regulatory hintsLuis R. Rodriguez
When devices are world roaming they cannot beacon or do active scan on 5 GHz or on channels 12, 13 and 14 on the 2 GHz band. Although we have a good regulatory API some cards may _always_ world roam, this is also true when a system does not have CRDA present. Devices doing world roaming can still passive scan, if they find a beacon from an AP on one of the world roaming frequencies we make the assumption we can do the same and we also remove the passive scan requirement. This adds support for providing beacon regulatory hints based on scans. This works for devices that do either hardware or software scanning. If a channel has not yet been marked as having had a beacon present on it we queue the beacon hint processing into the workqueue. All wireless devices will benefit from beacon regulatory hints from any wireless device on a system including new devices connected to the system at a later time. Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <lrodriguez@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2009-02-27cfg80211: enable 5 GHz world roaming channelsLuis R. Rodriguez
The current static world regulatory domain is too restrictive, we can use some 5 GHz channels world wide so long as they do not touch frequencies which require DFS. The compromise is we must also enforce passive scanning and disallow usage of a mode of operation that beacons: (AP | IBSS | Mesh) Signed-off-by: Luis R.

2009-02-27cfg80211: protect first access of last_request on 11d hint under mutexLuis R. Rodriguez
We were not protecting last_request there is a small possible race between an 11d hint and another routine which calls reset_regdomains() which can prevent a valid country IE from being processed. This is not critical as it will still be procesed soon after but locking prior to it is correct. Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <lrodriguez@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2009-02-27cfg80211: propagate -ENOMEM during regulatory_init()Luis R. Rodriguez
Calling kobject_uevent_env() can fail mainly due to out of memory conditions. We do not want to continue during such conditions so propagate that as well instead of letting cfg80211 load as if everything is peachy. Additionally lets clarify that when CRDA is not called during cfg80211's initialization _and_ if the error is not an -ENOMEM its because kobject_uevent_env() failed to call CRDA, not because CRDA failed. For those who want to find out why we also let you do so by enabling the kernel config CONFIG_CFG80211_REG_DEBUG -- you'll get an actual stack trace. So for now we'll treat non -ENOMEM kobject_uevent_env() failures as non fatal during cfg80211's initialization. CC: Greg KH <greg@kroah.com> Signed-off-by: Luis R.

2009-02-27nl80211: disallow user requests prior to regulatory_init()Luis R. Rodriguez
If cfg80211 is built into the kernel there is perhaps a small time window betwen nl80211_init() and regulatory_init() where cfg80211_regdomain hasn't yet been initialized to let the wireless core do its work. During that rare case and time frame (if its even possible) we don't allow user regulatory changes as cfg80211 is working on enabling its first regulatory domain. To check for cfg80211_regdomain we now contend the entire operation using the cfg80211_mutex. Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <lrodriguez@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
