* [PATCH] ipw2200: Update ipw2200 version stamp to 1.1.1Zhu Yi2006-03-171-1/+1

* [PATCH] ipw2200: switch to the new ipw2200-fw-3.0 image formatJames Ketrenos2006-03-171-101/+64
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch modifies the driver to support the ipw2200-fw-3.0 image format. The 3.0 fw image does not add any new capabilities, but as a result of image format changes, it should fix two problems experienced by users: 1) Race conditions with the request_firmware interface and udev/hotplug are improved as only a single request_firmware call is now required to load the firmware and microcode (vs. 3 separate calls previously) 2) The monitor mode firmware (sniffer) is now packaged with the correct boot image so it can now function without frequent restarts. Note: Once you apply this patch, you will also need to upgrade your firmware image to the 3.0 version available from: http://ipw2200.sf.net/firmware.php Signed-off-by: James Ketrenos <jketreno@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Zhu Yi <yi.zhu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

* [PATCH] ipw2200: Set a meaningful silence threshold valueCahill, Ben M2006-03-172-7/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Set a meaningful silence threshold value (replacing our previous "0" default), which gets rid of the gratuitous "Link deterioration" notifications that we've been receiving from firmware. This notification feature tells the driver information to help it determine when to pre-emptively restart the firmware/ucode in anticipation of firmware errors! But since setting this new threshold, I haven't seen any such notifications. At least it keeps the logs a little less busy.

* [PATCH] ipw2200: Add signal level to iwlist scan outputBill Moss2006-03-171-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | This patch does two things. It uses the parameter IW_QUAL_DBM which is new in WE-19 to cause signal level and noise to be reported in dBm by the wireless tools. It also defines the signal level as an unsigned integer so that the signal level will be reported by iwlist iface scan.

* [PATCH] ipw2200: stop netdev queue if h/w doesn't have space for new packetsJames Ketrenos2006-03-171-5/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The patch roll back the change we made to support for the ability to start/stop independent Tx queues within a single net device in order to support 802.11e QoS. We need to be able to indicate to the upper layers that packets of a given priority can not be sent any more without halting transmission of all packets, and without rescheduling high priority packets down to the next priority level. So we return NETDEV_TX_BUSY in this case and rely on the stack would take care of rescheduling... which it apparently does immediately and consumes the CPU. This caused the ksoftirqd kernel thread consuming almost all the CPU... To put the code back to the way it was before we made these changes we put the call netif_queue_stop back in ipw_tx_skb. This effectively disables multiple priority based transmit queues for 802.11e, but given that its broken anyway...

| | | | | | | | | | | | As stated in a comment, the ipw2200 driver uses several routines that were borrowed from ieee80211_geo.c. As ipw2200 requires ieee80211, these routines are duplicated. The attached patch, which is sent as an attachment to preserve whitespace, converts ipw2200.c to use the ieee80211 versions, thereby reducing bloat in both the source and binary.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add DMA workaround for chips that do not support full 64-bit DMA addresses. 5714, 5715, and 5780 chips only support DMA addresses less than 40 bits. On 64-bit systems with IOMMU, set the dma_mask to 40-bit so that pci_map_xxx() calls will map the DMA address below 40 bits if necessary. On 64-bit systems without IOMMU, set the dma_mask to 64-bit and check for DMA addresses exceeding the limit in tg3_start_xmit(). 5788 only supports 32-bit DMA so need to set the mask appropriately also. Thanks to Chris Elmquist at SGI for reporting and helping to debug the problem on 5714. Thanks to David Miller for explaining the HIGHMEM and DMA stuff.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As documented in National application note 1287 the RX state machine on the natsemi chip can lock up under some conditions (mostly related to heavy load).
