bcm43xx and ipw2100 currently duplicate the same simplistic get_stats
handler. Additionally, zd1211rw requires the same handler to fix a
bug where all stats are reported as 0.
This patch adds a generic implementation to the ieee80211 layer,
which drivers are free to override.

zd1211rw's support for IW_FREQ_AUTO is broken: when specified, the driver
tries to change to a channel specified in an uninitialized integer. As
IW_FREQ_AUTO is hard to implement properly, the solution (at least for now)
is to drop support for it and start ignoring the flags like all other wireless
drivers do.
This has the added advantage that kismet also starts working with zd1211rw,
even though kismet requesting IW_FREQ_AUTO is also a bug (fixed in their svn)

When the periodic work function in bcm43xx was converted for voluntary preemption
to reduce latency, a new function was created to estimate the "badness" of
each step, and this quantity was used to determine if preemption should be
enabled when periodic work was undertaken. This concept was quite useful
while debugging of periodic work was in progress. Now that this routine
seems to be working correctly, it is time to simplify the code. This
patch keeps the functionality intact, but simplifies the code.

values other than the default, which executes an assertion placed in the
default case of a following switch statement. This patch makes the leds

This fixes a netdev watchdog timeout problem.
The software needs to call netif_tx_disable before running the
hardware calibration code. The problem condition can be shown by the
following timegraph.
|---5secs - ~10 jiffies time---|---|OOPS
^ ^
last real TX periodic work stops netif
At OOPS, the following happens:
The watchdog timer triggers, because the timeout of 5secs
is over. The watchdog first checks for stopped TX.
_Usually_ TX is only stopped from the TX handler to indicate
a full TX queue. But this is different. We need to stop TX here,
regardless of the TX queue state. So the watchdog recognizes
the stopped device and assumes it is stopped due to full
TX queues (Which is a _wrong_ assumption in this case). It then
tests how far the last TX has been in the past. If it's more than
5secs (which is the case for low or no traffic), it will fire
a TX timeout.

The length of the manfid CIS should be at least 4, and it's normally 4.
It's incorrect to require it to be at least 5. This breaks support for
most (if not all) cards.
The right place to ensure that we don't access beyond the CIS buffer is
to strengthen another check. Make sure that the next tuple begins at
least at the CIS buffer end (in which case we stop processing) or
before that.

- Eliminate check for irq handler 'dev_id==NULL' where the
condition never occurs.
- Eliminate needless casts to/from void*
Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.
The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).
Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.
Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.
I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.
This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:
struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);
And put the old one back at the end:
set_irq_regs(old_regs);
Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().
In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:
- update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
- profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
+ update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
+ profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);
I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().
Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:
(*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in
the input_dev struct.
(*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does
something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
pointer or not.
(*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
irq_handler_t.
