* mwifiex: Fixing NULL pointer dereferenceYogesh Ashok Powar2011-06-151-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Following OOPS was seen when booting with card inserted BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000004c IP: [<f8b7718c>] cfg80211_get_drvinfo+0x21/0x115 [cfg80211] *pde = 00000000 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP Modules linked in: iwl3945 iwl_legacy mwifiex_sdio mac80211 11 sdhci_pci sdhci pl2303 'ethtool' on the mwifiex device returned this OOPS as wiphy_dev() returned NULL. Adding missing set_wiphy_dev() call to fix the problem. Signed-off-by: Yogesh Ashok Powar <yogeshp@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

* mwifiex: fix simultaneous assoc and scan issueAmitkumar Karwar2011-05-051-4/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When scan and assoc (infra/ibss) commands are simultaneously given in two terminals, association response is erroneously served while serving the scan response. mwifiex_cfg80211_results() is the common routine for sending ioctl (scan, assoc etc.) results to cfg80211 stack. In above scenario even if the common routine is called for scan ioctl context, it also tries to send information about assoc ioctl to cfg80211 because "priv->assoc_request/priv->ibss_join_request" flag is on at that time. Fix the issue by updating request variable after assoc handling and modifying the variable check in mwifiex_cfg80211_results.

* mwifiex: HT capability information handlingAmitkumar Karwar2011-04-281-7/+35
| | | | | | | | | | | | | 1) Initialise HT capabilities in cfg80211 properly. 2) Cfg80211 stack may modify "sband->ht_cap" to disable 40Mhz operation in 2.4GHz band (after recent patch "cfg80211: module_param to disable HT40 in 2.4GHz band") Therefore read "sband->ht_cap" instead of an adapter variable "hw_dot_11n_dev_cap" to get HT capabilities.

* mwifiex: return success in set_default_key for WPA/WPA2Amitkumar Karwar2011-04-071-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When testing wpa_supplicant with 'nl80211' driver to connect to an AP with WPA/WPA2 security, we notice the followings: 1) add_key is called firstly with the key from cfg80211 2) set_defaut_key is called next set_default_key() is specific to WEP keys and should not be called in case of WPA/WPA2 security. The set_default_key() won't be called if wpa_supplicant uses "-Dwext" option, but it's been called if "-Dnl80211" option is specified. We can fix this issue by adding a check to return from set_default_key() if WEP key is not configured.

* mwifiex: use IEEE80211_HT_CAP_ macros for 11n cap_infoMarc Yang2011-04-041-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The hw_dot_11n_dev_cap reported by firmware hw_spec has different format than the 11n capabilities. Hence a lot of SET_ and RESET_ bit operation macros were used to convert the dev_cap format to 11n capability format. However the locally defined 11n ht_cap macros are not necessary as we can use IEEE80211_HT_CAP_ macros directly. The 32-bit dev_cap bitmap is added as comment to explain the mapping between firmware and 11n spec. Some unused macros and unnecessary adapter variables are also removed.
