e33761e6f2 ssb: Fix range check in sprom write
The range check in the sprom image parser hex2sprom() is broken.
One sprom word is 4 hex characters.
This fixes the check and also adds much better sanity checks to the code.
We better make sure the image is OK by doing some sanity checks to avoid
bricking the device by accident.

3ba6018aa3 ssb: Fix SPROM writing
The SPROM writing routines were broken since we rewrote the suspend
handling on wireless devices, because SPROM writing depended on suspend.

This patch changes it and freezes devices with the driver remove(), probe()
callbacks instead. This also simplifies the whole logics a lot.

3681165235 iwlwifi: remove reset led_tpt from iwl_leds_init()
Current blinking rate is calculated based on the difference between
current tx/rx byte counts and priv->led_tpt.

priv->led_tpt should not get reset in iwl_leds_init(), this function can be
called by bring interface "up" or "down", or when uCode sysassert occurred.
resetting the led_tpt parameter will introduce incorrect led blinking behavior.

c341ddb283 iwlwifi: print limited number of event log when uCode error
To help iwlagn uCode debugging, event log will dump to syslog when driver
detect uCode error occurred, but this only happen when compile with
CONFIG_IWLWIFI_DEBUG and debug flag is enabled; which is not always
the case. Also, there is another problem, if the flag is set, the entire
event log buffer will be dump to syslog, it can flood the syslog and
make it very difficult to debug the problem.

Change the default to only dump last 20 entries of event log to syslog
unless the following condition meets:
1. both compile with CONFIG_IWLWIFI_DEBUG and debug flag
is enabled, and then dump the entire event buffer to syslog.
2. dump event log request from debugfs

74ba67edfc iwlagn: Use iwl_write8() for CSR_INT_COALESCING register
CSR_INT_COALESCING previously had only one, but now has two single-byte fields.
With only one single-byte field (lowest order byte) it was okay to write via
iwl_write32(), but now with two, an iwl_write32() to the lower order field
clobbers the other field (odd-address CSR_INT_PERIODIC_REG, offset 0x5), and an
iwl_write32() to CSR_INT_PERIODIC_REG could clobber the lowest byte of the
next-higher register (CSR_INT, offset 0x8).

Fortunately, no bad side effects have been produced by the iwl_write32()
usage, due to order of execution (low order byte was always written before
higher order byte), and the fact that writing "0" to the low byte of the
next higher register has no effect (only action is when writing "1"s).

Nonetheless, this cleans up the accesses so no bad side effects might occur
in the future, if execution order changes, or more bit fields get added to
CSR_INT_COALESCING.

Add some comments regarding periodic interrupt usage.

This rewrites the error handling policies in the TX status handler.
It tries to be error-tolerant as in "try hard to not crash the machine".
It won't recover from errors (that are bugs in the firmware or driver),
because that's impossible. However, it will return a more or less useful
error message and bail out. It also tries hard to use rate-limited messages

d8dd15781d sctp: Fix mis-ordering of user space data when multihoming in use
Recently had a bug reported to me, in which the user was sending
packets with a payload containing a sequence number.  The packets
were getting delivered in order according the chunk TSN values, but
the sequence values in the payload were arriving out of order.  At
first I thought it must be an application error, but we eventually
found it to be a problem on the transmit side in the sctp stack.

The conditions for the error are that multihoming must be in use,
and it helps if each transport has a different pmtu.  The problem
occurs in sctp_outq_flush.  Basically we dequeue packets from the
data queue, and attempt to append them to the orrered packet for a
given transport.  After we append a data chunk we add the trasport
to the end of a list of transports to have their packets sent at
the end of sctp_outq_flush.  The problem occurs when a data chunks
fills up a offered packet on a transport.  The function that does
the appending (sctp_packet_transmit_chunk), will try to call
sctp_packet_transmit on the full packet, and then append the chunk
to a new packet.  This call to sctp_packet_transmit, sends that
packet ahead of the others that may be queued in the transport_list
in sctp_outq_flush.  The result is that frames that were sent in one
order from the user space sending application get re-ordered prior
to tsn assignment in sctp_packet_transmit, resulting in mis-sequencing
of data payloads, even though tsn ordering is correct.

The fix is to change where we assign a tsn.  By doing this earlier,
we are then free to place chunks in packets, whatever way we
see fit and the protocol will make sure to do all the appropriate
re-ordering on receive as is needed.

245cba7e55 sctp: Remove useless last_time_used variable
The transport last_time_used variable is rather useless.
It was only used when determining if CWND needs to be updated
due to idle transport.  However, idle transport detection was
based on a Heartbeat timer and last_time_used was not incremented
when sending Heartbeats.  As a result the check for cwnd reduction
was always true.  We can get rid of the variable and just base
our cwnd manipulation on the HB timer (like the code comment sais).
We also have to call into the cwnd manipulation function regardless
of whether HBs are enabled or not.  That way we will detect idle
transports if the user has disabled Heartbeats.

37051f7386 sctp: allow setting path_maxrxt independent of SPP_PMTUD_ENABLE
Since draft-ietf-tsvwg-sctpsocket-15.txt, setting the
SPP_MTUD_ENABLE flag when changing pathmaxrxt via the
SCTP_PEER_ADDR_PARAMS setsockopt is not required any
longer.

90f2f5318b sctp: Update SWS avaoidance receiver side algorithm
We currently send window update SACKs every time we free up 1 PMTU
worth of data.  That a lot more SACKs then necessary.  Instead, we'll
now send back the actuall window every time we send a sack, and do
window-update SACKs when a fraction of the receive buffer has been
opened.  The fraction is controlled with a sysctl.

e0e9db178a sctp: Select a working primary during sctp_connectx()
When sctp_connectx() is used, we pick the first address as
primary, even though it may not have worked.  This results
in excessive retransmits and poor performance.  We should
select the address that the association was established with.

6383cfb3ed sctp: Fix malformed "Invalid Stream Identifier" error
The "Invalid Stream Identifier" error has a 16 bit reserved
field at the end, thus making the parameter length be 8 bytes.
We've never supplied that reserved field making wireshark
tag the packet as malformed.

b93d647174 sctp: implement the sender side for SACK-IMMEDIATELY extension
This patch implement the sender side for SACK-IMMEDIATELY
extension.

  Section 4.1.  Sender Side Considerations

  Whenever the sender of a DATA chunk can benefit from the
  corresponding SACK chunk being sent back without delay, the sender
  MAY set the I-bit in the DATA chunk header.

  Reasons for setting the I-bit include

  o  The sender is in the SHUTDOWN-PENDING state.

  o  The application requests to set the I-bit of the last DATA chunk
     of a user message when providing the user message to the SCTP
     implementation.

This patch implement the receiver side for SACK-IMMEDIATELY
extension:

  Section 4.2.  Receiver Side Considerations

  On reception of an SCTP packet containing a DATA chunk with the I-bit
  set, the receiver SHOULD NOT delay the sending of the corresponding
  SACK chunk and SHOULD send it back immediately.

   The only difference between the DATA chunk in Figure 1 and the DATA
   chunk defined in [RFC4960] is the addition of the I-bit in the flags
   field of the chunk header.
