2010-02-12net: Micrel KSZ8841/2 PCI Ethernet driverTristram Ha
This is a new network driver for Micrel KSZ8841/KSZ8842 PCI Ethernet chips. The same driver can run both chips at the same time. It supports IPv4 TCP hardware checksumming and so can use scatter/gather transmission. The KSZ8842 switch has 2 ports. Some users like to take direct control of those ports. So KSZ8842 has a multiple devices mode in which the driver creates another network device so that users can specify which port to send packets. This mode is enabled by passing the "multi_dev=1" parameter to the driver during loading. The KSZ884X can receive huge frames with size up to 1916 bytes. To use this feature change the network device MTU from 1500 to 1898. The KSZ884X driver has 3 packet receive processing functions for the normal mode, multiple devices mode, and huge frame mode. Those functions are identical except for more checking for the new features. In normal programming point of view the huge frame version is the one to use because it covers all the cases, but this is done for performance consideration because the target clients for the KSZ884X chips are embedded systems, which unlike desktop PC may not have powerful CPU.

2010-02-12net: move am79c961's probe function to .devinit.textUwe Kleine-König
A pointer to am79c961_probe is passed to the core via platform_driver_register and so the function must not disappear when the .init sections are discarded. Otherwise (if also having HOTPLUG=y) unbinding and binding a device to the driver via sysfs will result in an oops as does a device being registered late. An alternative to this patch is using platform_driver_probe instead of platform_driver_register plus removing the pointer to the probe function from the struct platform_driver.

2010-02-12iwlwifi: fix AMSDU Rx after paged Rx patchShanyu Zhao
Previous patch "use paged Rx" broke AMSDU Rx functionality. If an AP sends out A-MSDU packets the station will crash. Fix it by linearizing skbuff for AMSDU packet before handing it to mac80211 since mac80211 doesn't support paged skbuff.

2010-02-12ath9k: add a workaround for ack timeout issuesFelix Fietkau
Adding support for setting the coverage class in some cases broke association and data transfer, as it overwrote the initial ACK timeout value from the initvals with a smaller value. I don't know why the new value works in 5 GHz (matches the initval there), but not in 2.4 GHz (initvals use 64us here), so until the problem is fully understood, the value should be increased again.

2010-02-11iwlwifi: Monitor and recover the aggregation TX flow failureTrieu 'Andrew' Nguyen
This change monitors the tx statistics to detect the drop in throughput. When the throughput drops, the ratio of the actual_ack_count and the expected_ ack_count also drops. At the same time, the aggregated ba_timeout (the number of ba timeout retries) also rises. If the actual_ack_count/expected_ack_count ratio is 0 and the number of ba timeout retries rises to 16, no tx packets (tcp, udp, or ping - icmp) can be delivered. The driver recovers from this situation by reseting the uCode firmware. If the actual_ack_count/expected_ ack_count ratio drops below 50% (but not 0) and the aggregated ba_timeout retries just exceed 5 (but not 16), then the driver can reset the radio to bring the throughput up.

While testing the station with the NIC 1000 family, it is found that the plcp error can easily exceed 50 value in 100mSecs. This creates unneccessary radio reset/tuning.

2010-02-11iwlwifi: reset card during probeReinette Chatre
To ensure that card is in a sane state during probe we add a reset call. This change was prompted by users of kdump who was not able to bring up the wireless driver in the kdump kernel. The problem here was that the primary kernel, which is not running at the time, left the wireless card up and running. When the kdump kernel starts it is thus possible to immediately receive interrupts from firmware after registering interrupt, but without being ready to deal with interrupts from firmware yet.

2010-02-11iwlwifi: fix scan raceReinette Chatre
There is a problem if an "internal short scan" is in progress when a mac80211 requested scan arrives. If this new scan request arrives within the "next_scan_jiffies" period then driver will immediately return success and complete the scan. The problem here is that the scan has not been fully initialized at this time (is_internal_short_scan is still set to true because of the currently running scan), which results in the scan completion never to be sent to mac80211. At this time also, evan though the internal short scan is still running the state (is_internal_short_scan) will be set to false, so when the internal scan does complete then mac80211 will receive a scan completion. Fix this by checking right away if a scan is in progress when a scan request arrives from mac80211. Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com>

2010-02-10via-velocity: Fix races on shared interruptsSimon Kagstrom
This patch fixes two potential races in the velocity driver: * Move the ACK and error handler to the interrupt handler. This fixes a potential race with shared interrupts when the other device interrupts before the NAPI poll handler has finished. As the velocity driver hasn't acked it's own interrupt, it will then steal the interrupt from the other device. * Use spin_lock_irqsave in velocity_poll. In the current code, the interrupt handler will deadlock if e.g., the NAPI poll handler is executing when an interrupt (for another device) comes in since it tries to take the already held lock. Also unlock the spinlock only after enabling the interrupt in velocity_poll. The error path is moved to the interrupt handler since this is where the ISR is checked now.
