2011-11-21mac80211: Support ht-cap over-rides.Ben Greear
This implements ht-cap over-rides for mac80211 drivers. HT may be disabled, making an /a/b/g/n station act like an a/b/g station. HT40 may be disabled forcing the station to be HT20 even if the AP and local hardware support HT40. MAX-AMSDU may be disabled. AMPDU-Density may be increased. AMPDU-Factor may be decreased. This has been successfully tested with ath9k using patched wpa_supplicant and iw. Signed-off-by: Ben Greear <greearb@candelatech.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2011-11-21wireless: Support ht-capabilities over-rides.Ben Greear
This allows users to disable features such as HT, HT40, and to modify the MCS, AMPDU, and AMSDU settings for drivers that support it. The MCS, AMPDU, and AMSDU features that may be disabled are are reported in the phy-info netlink message as a mask. Attemping to disable features that are not supported will take no affect, but will not return errors. This is to aid backwards compatibility in user-space apps that may not be clever enough to deal with parsing the the capabilities mask. This patch only enables the infrastructure. An additional patch will enable the feature in mac80211. Signed-off-by: Ben Greear <greearb@candelatech.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2011-11-21cfg80211/mac80211: Revert "move information element parsing logic to cfg80211"Johannes Berg
No other driver ever ended up using this, and the commit forgot to move the prototype so no driver could have used it. Revert it, if any driver shows up and needs it it can be moved again, but until then it's more efficient to have it in mac80211 where the only user is.

2011-11-21mac80211: transmit fragment list to driversJohannes Berg
Drivers can usually handle fragmented packets much easier when they get the entire list of fragments at once. The only thing they need to do is keep enough space on the queues for up to ten fragments of a single MSDU. This allows them to implement this with a new operation tx_frags.

2011-11-21mac80211: use skb list for fragmentsJohannes Berg
We are currently linking the skbs by using skb->next directly. This works, but the preferred way is to use a struct sk_buff_head instead. That also prepares for passing that to drivers directly.

2011-11-21netfilter: possible unaligned packet header in ip_route_me_harderPaul Guo
This patch tries to fix the following issue in netfilter: In ip_route_me_harder(), we invoke pskb_expand_head() that rellocates new header with additional head room which can break the alignment of the original packet header. In one of my NAT test case, the NIC port for internal hosts is configured with vlan and the port for external hosts is with general configuration. If we ping an external "unknown" hosts from an internal host, an icmp packet will be sent. We find that in icmp_send()->...->ip_route_me_harder()->pskb_expand_head(), hh_len=18 and current headroom (skb_headroom(skb)) of the packet is 16. After calling pskb_expand_head() the packet header becomes to be unaligned and then our system (arch/tile) panics immediately.

2011-11-20batman-adv: use unregister_netdevice() when softif_create failsSimon Wunderlich
When entering softif_create(), the rtnl lock has already been acquired by store_mesh_iface(). (store_mesh_iface() -> hardif_enable_interface() -> softif_create) In case of an error, we should therefore call unregister_netdevice() instead of unregister_netdev(). unregister_netdev() tries to acquire the rtnl lock itself and deadlocks in this situation. unregister_netdevice() assumes that the rtnl lock is already been held.

2011-11-20batman-adv: create a common substructure for tt_global/local_entryAntonio Quartulli
Several functions in the translation table management code assume that the tt_global_entry and tt_local_entry structures have the same initial fields such as 'addr' and 'hash_entry'. To improve the code readability and to avoid mistakes in later changes, a common substructure that substitute the shared fields has been introduced (struct tt_common_entry).

2011-11-20batman-adv: directly write tt entries without bufferingSimon Wunderlich
When the translation tables (global and local) are written for debugfs, it is not neccesary to allocate a buffer, we can directly use seq_printf() to print them out. This might actually be safer if the table changes between size calculation and traversal, and we can't estimate the required size wrong.

2011-11-20batman-adv: fixed hash functions type to uint32_t instead of intAntonio Quartulli
There are two reasons for this fix: - the result of choose_orig() and vis_choose() is an index and therefore it can't be negative. Hence it is correct to make the return type unsigned too. - sizeof(int) may not be the same on ALL the architectures. Since we plan to use choose_orig() as DHT hash function, we need to guarantee that, given the same argument, the result is the same. Then it is correct to explicitly express the size of the return type (and the second argument). Since the expected length is currently 4, uint32_t is the most convenient choice.

2011-11-20batman-adv: use orig_hash_find() instead of get_orig_node() in TT codeAntonio Quartulli
get_orig_node() tries to retrieve an orig_node object based on a mac address and creates it if not present. This is not the wanted behaviour in the translation table code as we don't want to create new orig_code objects but expect a NULL pointer if the object does not exist.

commit f39925dbde77 (ipv4: Cache learned redirect information in inetpeer.) introduced a regression in ICMP redirect handling. It assumed ipv4_dst_check() would be called because all possible routes were attached to the inetpeer we modify in ip_rt_redirect(), but thats not true. commit 7cc9150ebe (route: fix ICMP redirect validation) tried to fix this but solution was not complete.
