2017-09-20	b43legacy: fix unitialized reads of ret by initializing the array to zero	Colin Ian King
	The u8 char array ret is not being initialized and elements outside the range start to end contain just garbage values from the stack. This results in a later scan of the array to read potentially uninitialized values. Fix this by initializing the array to zero. This seems to have been an issue since the very first commit.

2017-06-16	networking: introduce and use skb_put_data()	Johannes Berg
	A common pattern with skb_put() is to just want to memcpy() some data into the new space, introduce skb_put_data() for this. An spatch similar to the one for skb_put_zero() converts many of the places using it: @@ identifier p, p2; expression len, skb, data; type t, t2; @@ ( -p = skb_put(skb, len); +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, len); \| -p = (t)skb_put(skb, len); +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, len); ) ( p2 = (t2)p; -memcpy(p2, data, len); \| -memcpy(p, data, len); ) @@ type t, t2; identifier p, p2; expression skb, data; @@ t p; ... ( -p = skb_put(skb, sizeof(t)); +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, sizeof(t)); \| -p = (t )skb_put(skb, sizeof(t)); +p = skb_put_data(skb, data, sizeof(t)); ) ( p2 = (t2)p; -memcpy(p2, data, sizeof(p)); \| -memcpy(p, data, sizeof(p)); ) @@ expression skb, len, data; @@ -memcpy(skb_put(skb, len), data, len); +skb_put_data(skb, data, len); (again, manually post-processed to retain some comments) Reviewed-by: Stephen Hemminger <stephen@networkplumber.org> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2017-03-06	wireless: Set NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_CQM_RSSI_LIST in multiple drivers	Andrew Zaborowski
	Set the NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_CQM_RSSI_LIST wiphy extended feature wholesale in all mac80211-based drivers that do not set the IEEE80211_VIF_BEACON_FILTER flags on their interfaces. mac80211 will be processing supplied RSSI values in ieee80211_rx_mgmt_beacon and will detect when the thresholds set by ieee80211_set_cqm_rssi_range_config are crossed. Remaining (few) drivers need code to enable the firmware to monitor the thresholds. This is mostly only compile-tested.

2016-10-27	wireless: deprecate WDS and disable by default	Johannes Berg
	The old WDS 4-addr frame support is very limited, e.g. * no encryption is possible on such links * it cannot support rate/HT/VHT negotiation * management APIs are very restricted These make the WDS legacy mode useless in practice. All of these are resolved by the 4-addr AP/client support, so there's also no reason to improve WDS in the future. Therefore, add a Kconfig option to disable legacy WDS. This gives people an "emergency valve" while they migrate to the better-supported 4-addr AP/client option; we plan to remove it (and the associated cfg80211/mac80211 code, which is the ultimate goal) in the future.

2016-09-21	b43legacy: fix debugfs crash	Christian Lamparter
	This patch fixes a crash that happens because b43legacy's debugfs code expects file->f_op to be a pointer to its own b43legacy_debugfs_fops struct.

2016-04-12	cfg80211: remove enum ieee80211_band	Johannes Berg
	This enum is already perfectly aliased to enum nl80211_band, and the only reason for it is that we get IEEE80211_NUM_BANDS out of it. There's no really good reason to not declare the number of bands in nl80211 though, so do that and remove the cfg80211 one. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
