2012-03-07staging: r8712u: Fix Smatch warningLarry Finger1-4/+4
The patch 2080913e017a: "staging: r8712u: Fix regression caused by commit 8c213fa" from Feb 25, 2012, leads to the following Smatch complaint: drivers/staging/rtl8712/usb_intf.c:629 r871xu_dev_remove() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'padapter' (see line 625) The fix is to move the new statements inside the block where padapter is not NULL.

2012-03-02Staging: rtl8712/rtl8192u: move USB device ID within staging drivers.Martin Krause1-0/+1
It seems the USB device ID 0bda:8192 is wrongly assigned to the RTL8192SU chip and not to the RTL8191SU chip in the USB database. So this patch moves this device ID from the rtl8192u staging driver to the rtl8712 staging driver. This patch was tested with a Radicom WIFIHU embedded wireless module with a RTL8191SU chip and the USB device ID 0bda:8192. Without the patch the rtl8192u driver claims this device, but it does not work. With the patch the rtl8712 driver services this device and it works.

2012-02-29staging: r8712u: Fix regression in signal level after commit c6dc001Larry Finger1-7/+1
In commit c6dc001 "staging: r8712u: Merging Realtek's latest (v2.6.6). Various fixes", the returned qual.qual member of the iw_statistics struct was changed. For strong signals, this change made no difference; however for medium and weak signals it results in a low signal that shows considerable fluctuation, When using wicd for a medium-strength AP, the value reported in the status line is reduced from 100% to 60% by this bug. This problem is reported in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42826.

2012-02-29staging: r8712u: Fix regression caused by commit 8c213faLarry Finger2-3/+5
In commit 8c213fa "staging: r8712u: Use asynchronous firmware loading", the command to release the firmware was placed in the wrong routine. In combination with the bug introduced in commit a5ee652 "staging: r8712u: Interface-state not fully tracked", the driver attempts to upload firmware that had already been released. This bug is the source of one of the problems in https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/27996#comment89833.

2012-02-29staging: r8712u: Fix regression introduced by commit a5ee652Larry Finger1-2/+0
In commit a5ee652 "staging: r8712u: Interface-state not fully tracked", the private boolean "bup" was set false when the interface was brought down, as that seemed appropriate. This change has not caused any problems when using NetworkManager or manual control of the device; however, when wicd control is used, there is a locking problem in wpa_supplicant, as shown in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42818. This fix reverts the only code change in commit a5ee652. My analysis is that "bup" is badly named. In its present form, it seems to indicate the up/down state of the device, but its usage is more consistent with an initialized/uninitialized state. That problem will be addressed in a later patch. Note: Commit 8c213fa, which introdued asynchronous firmware loading for this driver, exposed this bug to a greater extent. That bug is addressed in the next patch in this series. This bug is also responsible for the bug in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42815. and this bug is also part of the problems discussed at https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/27996#comment89950.

2012-02-10staging: r8712u: Add missing initialization and remove configuration parameter CONFIG_R8712_APLarry Finger3-15/+1
When this driver was upgraded to the vendor 20100831 version in commit 93c55dda092c7 et al,, one listhead initialization was missed. This broke complete operation of the driver whenever AP mode was enabled. This fixes https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/27996. The configuration parameter R8712_AP is misleading as the driver cannot function as an AP without a heavily hacked version of hostapd. Thus, it makes sense to remove the parameter; however the code and data configured for the option is left in.

2012-02-09staging: r8712u: Simplify semaphoresLarry Finger13-42/+4
I am preparing to convert this driver from semaphore to mutex locking, The first step has been to eliminate a number of semaphores that were initialized but never used, and one whose only use was a single "up" after initialization. A total of 9 semaphores were removed in this process. One other change was to remove some inline semaphore routines that were unused. In addition, several cases had the following structure: down() if () { ... } up() The locking overhead was reduced by moving the up/down inside the if block.

The ioctl handlers were frequently returning -1 upon failure. Most of these have now been changed to proper errno macros. The few remaining ones have been left untouched because either the handler is not called (and so cannot be tested), or the function never fails (and so cannot be system-tested), or requires new code to distinguish its failures.

2011-08-23staging: rtl8712: remove r8712_cmd_thread()->daemonize()Oleg Nesterov1-1/+0
daemonize() is only needed when a user-space task does kernel_thread(). r8712_cmd_thread() is kthread_create()'ed and thus it doesn't need the soon-to-be-deprecated daemonize(). It is the only caller of thread_enter() which actually does the call. Note: - we are going to remove the sigdelset(blocked) code from allow_signal(), this means that without this patch thread_enter() can't work after that. Not to mention daemonize() should be deprecated. - as a side effect, this patch changes ->comm. Hopefully this is fine, and padapter->pnetdev->name probably makes more sense anyway.
