2011-05-05mac80211: add basic support for WoWLANJohannes Berg
This adds basic support for the new WoWLAN configuration in mac80211. The behaviour is completely offloaded to the driver though, with two new callbacks (suspend/resume). Options for the driver include a complete reconfiguration after wakeup, and exposing all the triggers it wants to support.

This is based on (but now quite far from) the original work from Luis and Eliad. Add support for configuring WoWLAN triggers, and getting the configuration out again. Changes from the original patchset are too numerous to list, but one important change needs highlighting: the suspend() callback is passed NULL for the trigger configuration if userspace has not configured WoWLAN at all.

2011-05-05nl80211: Fix set_key regression with some driversJouni Malinen
Commit dbd2fd656f2060abfd3a16257f8b51ec60f6d2ed added a mechanism for user space to indicate whether a default key is being configured for only unicast or only multicast frames instead of all frames. This commit added a driver capability flag for indicating whether separate default keys are supported and validation of the set_key command based on that capability. However, this single capability flag is not enough to cover possible difference based on mode (AP/IBSS/STA) and the way this change was introduced resulted in a regression with drivers that do not indicate the new capability (i.e.., more or less any non-mac80211 driver using cfg80211) when using a recent wpa_supplicant snapshot. Fix the regression by removing the new check which is not strictly speaking needed. The new separate default key functionality is needed only for RSN IBSS which has a separate capability indication.

2011-05-05mac80211: Postpond ps timer if tx is stopped by othersRajkumar Manoharan
Whenever the driver's queue depth reaches the max, the queues are stopped by the driver till the driver can accept the frames. At the mean time dynamic_ps_timer can be expired due to not receiving packet from upper layer which could restart the transmission at the end of ps work. Due to the mismatch with driver state, mac80211 is unneccesarity buffering all the frames till the driver wakes up the queue. Check whether there is no transmit or the tx queues were stopped by some reasons. If any of the queue was stopped, the postpond ps timer and do not restart netif_tx.

netif_tx_start_all_queues is used to allow the upper layer to transmit frames but it does not restart transmission. To restart the trasmission use netif_tx_wake_all_queues. Not doing so, sometimes stalls the transmission and the application has to be restarted to proceed further.

2011-05-05net: Add sendmmsg socket system callAnton Blanchard
This patch adds a multiple message send syscall and is the send version of the existing recvmmsg syscall. This is heavily based on the patch by Arnaldo that added recvmmsg. I wrote a microbenchmark to test the performance gains of using this new syscall: http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/sendmmsg_test.c The test was run on a ppc64 box with a 10 Gbit network card. The benchmark can send both UDP and RAW ethernet packets. 64B UDP batch pkts/sec 1 804570 2 872800 (+ 8 %) 4 916556 (+14 %) 8 939712 (+17 %) 16 952688 (+18 %) 32 956448 (+19 %) 64 964800 (+20 %) 64B raw socket batch pkts/sec 1 1201449 2 1350028 (+12 %) 4 1461416 (+22 %) 8 1513080 (+26 %) 16 1541216 (+28 %) 32 1553440 (+29 %) 64 1557888 (+30 %) We see a 20% improvement in throughput on UDP send and 30% on raw socket send.

2011-05-05net: call dev_alloc_name from register_netdeviceJiri Pirko
Force dev_alloc_name() to be called from register_netdevice() by dev_get_valid_name(). That allows to remove multiple explicit dev_alloc_name() calls. The possibility to call dev_alloc_name in advance remains. This also fixes veth creation regresion caused by 84c49d8c3e4abefb0a41a77b25aa37ebe8d6b743 Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko <jpirko@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2011-05-05Bluetooth: Remove l2cap_sk_listGustavo F. Padovan
A new list was added to replace the socket based one. This new list doesn't depent on sock and then fits better inside l2cap_core.c code. It also rename l2cap_chan_alloc() to l2cap_chan_create() and l2cap_chan_free() to l2cap_chan_destroy) Signed-off-by: Gustavo F. Padovan <padovan@profusion.mobi>
