| * vfs: Rename generic_file_aio_write_nolockChristoph Hellwig2009-09-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | generic_file_aio_write_nolock() is now used only by block devices and raw character device. Filesystems should use __generic_file_aio_write() in case generic_file_aio_write() doesn't suit them. So rename the function to blkdev_aio_write() and move it to fs/blockdev.c.

Fixed up trivial conflicts: - arch/x86/include/asm/socket.h converted to <asm-generic/socket.h> in the x86 tree. The generic header has the same new #define's, so that works out fine. - drivers/net/tun.c fix conflict between 89f56d1e9 ("tun: reuse struct sock fields") that switched over to using 'tun->socket.sk' instead of the redundantly available (and thus removed) 'tun->sk', and 2b980dbd ("lsm: Add hooks to the TUN driver") which added a new 'tun->sk' use. Noted in 'next' by Stephen Rothwell.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Ethernet framing is used for a lot of devices these days. Most prominent are WiFi and WiMAX based devices. However for userspace application it is important to classify these devices correctly and not only see them as Ethernet devices. The daemons like HAL, DeviceKit or even NetworkManager with udev support tries to do the classification in userspace with a lot trickery and extra system calls. This is not good and actually reaches its limitations. Especially since the kernel does know the type of the Ethernet device it is pretty stupid. To solve this problem the underlying device type needs to be set and then the value will be exported as DEVTYPE via uevents and available within udev. # cat /sys/class/net/wlan0/uevent DEVTYPE=wlan INTERFACE=wlan0 IFINDEX=5 This is similar to subsystems like USB and SCSI that distinguish between hosts, devices, disks, partitions etc. The new SET_NETDEV_DEVTYPE() is a convenience helper to set the actual device type. All device types are free form, but for convenience the same strings as used with RFKILL are choosen. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

After testing from James Ledwith it appeared that the calculated values caused a high amount of TX failures, and the values from the Legacy drivers were the most optimal to prevent TX failure due to excessive retries. The symptoms of this problem: - Rate control module always falls back to 1Mbs - Low throughput when bitrate was fixed Possible side-effects (not confirmed but highly likely) - Problems with DHCP - Broken connections due to lack of probe response This should fix at least: Kernel bugzilla reports: [13362], [13009], [9273] Fedora bugzilla reports: [443203] but possible some additional bugs as well.

This is based on the implementation in the vendor driver (hal/hpmain.c, line 3700 ff.) with one difference: If any ctl mode isn't found in the eeprom, we fall back to the "lower", legacy modes (5GHT20,11A or 2GHT20,11G,11B). Otus only did 5GHT20->11A. Currently CTL are applied for the FCC group only. Signed-off-by: Joerg Albert <jal2@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
