4776c6e7f6 cfg80211: return immediately if num reg rules > NL80211_MAX_SUPP_REG_RULES
This has no functional change except we save a kfree(rd) and
allows us to clean this code up a bit after this. We do
avoid an unnecessary kfree(NULL) but calling that was OK too.

We do not need to do this in ath_isr() and it looks like the modified

e3da574a0d cfg80211: allow wext to remove keys that don't exist
Some applications using wireless extensions expect to be able to
remove a key that doesn't exist. One example is wpa_supplicant
which doesn't actually change behaviour when running into an
error while trying to do that, but it prints an error message
which users interpret as wpa_supplicant having problems.

The safe thing to do is not change the behaviour of wireless
extensions any more, so when the driver reports -ENOENT let
the wext bridge code return success to userspace. To guarantee
this, also document that drivers should return -ENOENT when the
key doesn't exist.

73606d0036 mac80211_hwsim: Group radios
Currently all radios receive all traffic on the simulated air
if they are tuned to the same channel. This patch introduces
the concept of grouping, which allows to assign a radio to
certain group. Only radios in the same group can 'see' each other.

Each bit in /debug/ieee80211/phy*/hwsim/group
represents one group. By default all radios belong to the same group "1",
e.g. bit 1 is set. Additionally a radio can belong to several groups.

ff561ac84e p54spi: use firmware/DMA bug workaround that work under hight load in p54spi_rx
Under high load first data word, read after available data size
is sometimes lost in p54spi_rx. It seems to depend on frequency
of interrupts and latency of data read request relatively to
'data available' interrupt. The worst consequence of this bug
is loss of packet transmission acknowledgement, which in turn
causes overflow of tx queues and permanent link loss.

Read data size and first data word in one SPI transaction.
No packets from LMAC should have length less than 1 word,
so this shouldn't interfere with the next read transaction.

Also call p54spi_sleep if p54spi_wake succeeded.

69712e926b p54spi: cosmetic fixes: use even byte count in SPI write; drop unused interrupt status read
When SPI write of odd length is requested, p54spi_write splits it
into two parts: one for all data, except the last byte, and one
for last byte and padding byte. Unfortunately, the length of
first part is not amended. It works because all meaningful bytes
have proper value and the last byte of odd length SPI write
transaction is ignored.

5bb644a0fd mac80211: cancel/restart all timers across suspend/resume
We forgot to cancel all timers in mac80211 when suspending.
In particular we forgot to deal with some things that can
cause hardware reconfiguration -- while it is down.

While at it we go ahead and add a warning in ieee80211_sta_work()
if its run while the suspend->resume cycle is in effect. This
should not happen and if it does it would indicate there is
a bug lurking in either mac80211 or mac80211 drivers.

With this now wpa_supplicant doesn't blink when I go to suspend
and resume where as before there where issues with some timers
running during the suspend->resume cycle. This caused a lot of
incorrect assumptions and would at times bring back the device
in an incoherent, but mostly recoverable, state.

cc32abd494 mac80211: move channel switch code
The channel switch code is currently in the spectrum
management file, where arguably it belongs. However,
it is for managed mode only and uses the structures
for that mode only so having it in a more generic

gets simpler with the code here.

When/if we ever implement this for IBSS or mesh then
we will need to rework the structures it uses anyway
at which point we could move the code back.

cc65965cbb ath9k: Fix PS mode operation to receive buffered broadcast/multicast frames
The previous implementation was moving back to NETWORK SLEEP state
immediately after receiving a Beacon frame. This means that we are
unlikely to receive all the buffered broadcast/multicast frames that
would be sent after DTIM Beacon frames. Fix this by parsing the Beacon
frame and remaining awake, if needed, to receive the buffered
broadcast/multicast frames. The last buffered frame will trigger the
move back into NETWORK SLEEP state.

If the last broadcast/multicast frame is not received properly (or if
the AP fails to send it), the next Beacon frame will work as a backup
trigger for returning into NETWORK SLEEP.

A new debug type, PS (debug=0x800 module parameter), is added to make
it easier to debug potential power save issues in the
future. Currently, this is only used for the Beacon frame and buffered
broadcast/multicast receiving.

038659e7c6 cfg80211: Process regulatory max bandwidth checks for HT40
We are not correctly listening to the regulatory max bandwidth
settings. To actually make use of it we need to redesign things
a bit. This patch does the work for that. We do this to so we
can obey to regulatory rules accordingly for use of HT40.

We end up dealing with HT40 by having two passes for each channel.

The first check will see if a 20 MHz channel fits into the channel's
center freq on a given frequency range. We check for a 20 MHz
banwidth channel as that is the maximum an individual channel
will use, at least for now. The first pass will go ahead and
check if the regulatory rule for that given center of frequency
allows 40 MHz bandwidths and we use this to determine whether
or not the channel supports HT40 or not. So to support HT40 you'll
need at a regulatory rule that allows you to use 40 MHz channels
but you're channel must also be enabled and support 20 MHz by itself.

The second pass is done after we do the regulatory checks over
an device's supported channel list. On each channel we'll check
if the control channel and the extension both:

 o exist
 o are enabled
 o regulatory allows 40 MHz bandwidth on its frequency range

This work allows allows us to idependently check for HT40- and
HT40+.

4fddbf5d78 sit: strictly restrict incoming traffic to tunnel link device
Check link device when looking up a tunnel. When a tunnel is
linked to a interface, traffic from a different interface must not
reach the tunnel.

This also allows creating of multiple tunnels with the same
endpoints, if the link device differs.

8db99e5717 sit: Fail to create tunnel, if it already exists
When locating the tunnel, do not continue if it is found. Otherwise
a different tunnel with similar configuration would be returned and
parts could be overwritten.

9643f45512 ipv4: teach ipconfig about the MTU option in DHCP
The DHCP spec allows the server to specify the MTU.  This can be useful
for netbooting with UDP-based NFS-root on a network using jumbo frames.
This patch allows the kernel IP autoconfiguration to handle this option
correctly.

It would be possible to use initramfs and add a script to set the MTU,
but that seems like a complicated solution if no initramfs is otherwise
necessary, and would bloat the kernel image more than this code would.

This patch was originally submitted to LKML in 2003 by Hans-Peter Jansen.

fd2120ca0d net: use NLMSG_DEFAULT_SIZE in nlmsg_new() allocations
nlmsg_new() adds the size of the netlink header to the value
that has been passed as parameter. If NLMSG_GOODSIZE is selected,
we request an allocation of one memory page plus the size of the
header. Instead, NLMSG_DEFAULT_SIZE should be used since it
already substracts the size of the Netlink header.

I have the impression that the similar naming in both constant
is error prone when using it with nlmsg_new(). This is already
documented in include/net/netlink.h

We can slightly reduce size of teqlN structure, not duplicating stats
structure in teql_master but using stats field from net_device.stats
for tx_errors and from netdev_queue for tx_bytes/tx_packets/tx_dropped

when we configure our Tx and Rx feature sets, and makes the code more
readable and maintainable.
