* [PATCH] bcm43xx: Fix cancellation of work queue crashesLarry Finger2007-09-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A crash upon booting that is caused by bcm43xx has been reported [1] and found to be due to a work queue being reinitialized while work on that queue is still pending. This fix modifies the shutdown of work queues and prevents periodic work from being requeued during shutdown. With this patch, no more crashes on reboot were observed by the original reporter. I do not get that particular failure on my system; however, when running a large number of ifdown/ifup sequences, my system would kernel panic with the 'caps lock' light blinking at roughly a 1 Hz rate. In addition, there were infrequent failures in the firmware that resulted in 'IRQ READY TIMEOUT' errors. With this patch, no more of the first type of failure occur, and incidence of the second type is greatly reduced.

* [PATCH] bcm43xx: Remove dead configuration variable CONFIG_947XXLarry Finger2007-05-081-19/+0
| | | | | | | | | | The CONFIG_BCM947XX configuration variable was designed for use by the embedded device used by the OpenWRT project. The device has been shifted to the ssb driver in bcm43xx-mac80211 and will not be used with SoftMAC. Accordingly, this "dead" configuration variable is removed.

* [PATCH] bcm43xx: init routine rewriteMichael Buesch2006-07-271-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rewrite of the bcm43xx initialization routines. This fixes several issues: * up-down-up-down-up... stale data issue (May fix some DHCP issues) * Fix the init vs IRQ handler race (and remove the workaround) * Fix init for cards with multiple cores (APHY) As softmac has no internal PHY handling (unlike dscape), this adds the file "phymode" to sysfs. The active PHY can be selected by writing either a, b or g to this file. Current PHY can be determined by reading from it. * Fix the controller restart code. Controller restart can now also be triggered through echo 1 > /debug/bcm43xx/ethX/restart Signed-off-by: Michael Buesch <mb@bu3sch.de> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
* [PATCH] Convert bcm43xx-softmac to use the ieee80211_is_valid_channel routineLarry Finger2006-07-051-24/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | The current version of bcm43xx-softmac uses local routines to check if a channel is valid. As noted in the comments, these routines do not take any regulatory information into account. This patch converts the code to use the equivalent routine in ieee80211, which is being converted to know about regulatory information.

* [PATCH] bcm43xx: Fix array overrun in bcm43xx_geo_initMichael Buesch2006-05-051-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The problem here is that the bcm34xx driver and the ieee80211 stack do not agree on what channels are possible for 802.11a. The ieee80211 stack only wants channels between 34 and 165, while the bcm43xx driver accepts anything from 0 to 200. I made the bcm43xx driver comply with the ieee80211 stack expectations, by using the proper constants.
