2008-01-28[NET]: Convert init_timer into setup_timerPavel Emelyanov
Many-many code in the kernel initialized the timer->function and timer->data together with calling init_timer(timer). There is already a helper for this. Use it for networking code. The patch is HUGE, but makes the code 130 lines shorter (98 insertions(+), 228 deletions(-)).

2007-11-29ieee80211: fix unaligned access in ieee80211_copy_snapDaniel Drake

if (net_ratelimit()) IEEE80211_DEBUG_DROP(...) can pollute the logs with messages like: printk: 1 messages suppressed. printk: 2 messages suppressed. printk: 7 messages suppressed. if debugging information is disabled. These messages are printed by net_ratelimit(). Add a wrapper to net_ratelimit() that takes into account the log level, so that net_ratelimit() is called only when we really want to print something.

2007-11-10softmac: fix wext MLME request reason code endiannessJohannes Berg
The MLME request reason code is host-endian and our passing it to the low level functions is host-endian as well since they do the swapping. I noticed that the reason code 768 was sent (0x300) rather than 3 when wpa_supplicant terminates. This removes the superfluous cpu_to_le16() call.

Commits 58b053e4ce9d2fc3023645c1b96e537c72aa8d9a ("Update arch/ to use sg helpers") 45711f1af6eff1a6d010703b4862e0d2b9afd056 ("[SG] Update drivers to use sg helpers") fa05f1286be25a8ce915c5dd492aea61126b3f33 ("Update net/ to use sg helpers") converted many files to use the scatter gather helpers without ensuring that the necessary headerfile <linux/scatterlist> is included. This happened to work for ia64, powerpc, sparc64 and x86 because they happened to drag in that file via their <asm/dma-mapping.h>. On most of the others this probably broke. Instead of increasing the header file spider web I choose to include <linux/scatterlist.h> directly into the affectes files.

2007-10-10[IEEE80211]: Fix softmac lockdep reports.Johannes Berg
It seems I was actually able to hit this deadlock, on my quad G5 softmac locks up more often than not. This fixes it by using an own workqueue that can safely be flushed under RTNL. Not sure if the patch is correct with the workqueue naming. And don't think with the patch it doesn't continually lock up. It still does, just doesn't invoke lockdep warnings all the time.

2007-10-10[NET]: Make /proc/net per network namespaceEric W. Biederman
This patch makes /proc/net per network namespace. It modifies the global variables proc_net and proc_net_stat to be per network namespace. The proc_net file helpers are modified to take a network namespace argument, and all of their callers are fixed to pass &init_net for that argument. This ensures that all of the /proc/net files are only visible and usable in the initial network namespace until the code behind them has been updated to be handle multiple network namespaces. Making /proc/net per namespace is necessary as at least some files in /proc/net depend upon the set of network devices which is per network namespace, and even more files in /proc/net have contents that are relevant to a single network namespace.

2007-09-21[PATCH] softmac: Fix inability to associate with WEP networksLarry Finger
Commit 4cf92a3c was submitted as a fix for bug #8686 at bugzilla.kernel.org (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8686). Unfortunately, the fix led to a new bug, reported by Yoshifuji Hideaki, that prevented association for WEP encrypted networks that use ifconfig to control the device.

2007-04-25[SK_BUFF]: Convert skb->tail to sk_buff_data_tArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
So that it is also an offset from skb->head, reduces its size from 8 to 4 bytes on 64bit architectures, allowing us to combine the 4 bytes hole left by the layer headers conversion, reducing struct sk_buff size to 256 bytes, i.e. 4 64byte cachelines, and since the sk_buff slab cache is SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN... :-) Many calculations that previously required that skb->{transport,network, mac}_header be first converted to a pointer now can be done directly, being meaningful as offsets or pointers.

2007-02-14[PATCH] ieee80211softmac: Fix setting of initial transmit ratesLarry Finger
There is a bug in ieee80211softmac that always sets the user rate to 11Mbs, no matter the capabilities of the device. This bug was probably beneficial as long as the bcm43xx cards were rate limited; however, most are now capable of relatively high speeds. This patch fixes that bug and eliminates an assert that is no longer needed. Once the cards are capable of full OFDM speeds, the 24 Mbs rate will be changed to 54 Mbs.
