net/ieee80211 -> drivers/net/ipw2x00/libipw_* rename

2008-11-21T16:08:18+00:00

The old ieee80211 code only remains as a support library for the ipw2100 and ipw2200 drivers. So, move the code and rename it appropriately to reflects it's true purpose and status. Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

lib80211: absorb crypto bits from net/ieee80211

2008-11-21T16:08:17+00:00

These bits are shared already between ipw2x00 and hostap, and could probably be shared both more cleanly and with other drivers. This commit simply relocates the code to lib80211 and adjusts the drivers appropriately. Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

net/ieee80211: adjust error handling

2008-08-22T20:29:49+00:00

Converts a test in error handling code to a sequence of labels. The semantic match that found the problem is: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // @@ expression E,E1,E2; @@ E = alloc_etherdev(...) ... when != E = E1 if (...) { ... free_netdev(E); ... return ...; } ... when != E = E2 ( if (...) { ... when != free_netdev(E); return dev; } | * if (...) { ... when != free_netdev(E); return ...; } | register_netdev(E) ) // Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall Signed-off-by: John W.

[NET]: Convert init_timer into setup_timer

2008-01-28T22:53:35+00:00

Many-many code in the kernel initialized the timer->function and timer->data together with calling init_timer(timer). There is already a helper for this. Use it for networking code. The patch is HUGE, but makes the code 130 lines shorter (98 insertions(+), 228 deletions(-)). Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov Acked-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[NET]: Make /proc/net per network namespace

2007-10-10T23:49:06+00:00

This patch makes /proc/net per network namespace. It modifies the global variables proc_net and proc_net_stat to be per network namespace. The proc_net file helpers are modified to take a network namespace argument, and all of their callers are fixed to pass &init_net for that argument. This ensures that all of the /proc/net files are only visible and usable in the initial network namespace until the code behind them has been updated to be handle multiple network namespaces. Making /proc/net per namespace is necessary as at least some files in /proc/net depend upon the set of network devices which is per network namespace, and even more files in /proc/net have contents that are relevant to a single network namespace.

[PATCH] ieee80211: add missing global needed by IEEE80211_DEBUG_XXXX

2007-04-28T15:01:05+00:00

Using any of the IEEE80211_DEBUG_XXXX macros in any ieee80211_crypt routine built as a module results in a missing global for 'ieee80211_debug_level'. The fix is to export the symbol in ieee80211. Signed-off-by: Larry Finger Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

[PATCH] Update my email address from jkmaline@cc.hut.fi to j@w1.fi

2007-04-28T15:01:01+00:00

After 13 years of use, it looks like my email address is finally going to disappear. While this is likely to drop the amount of incoming spam greatly ;-), it may also affect more appropriate messages, so let's update my email address in various places. In addition, Host AP mailing list is subscribers-only and linux-wireless can also be used for discussing issues related to this driver which is now shown in MAINTAINERS.
