But when a SMP pairing fails, the SMP layer sends the SMP reason as the error status to the management layer. This commit maps all SMP reasons to HCI_ERROR_AUTH_FAILURE, which will be converted to MGMT_STATUS_AUTH_FAILED in the management layer.

| 6fe7cc7 | Sven Eckelmann | 29 October 2012, 12:25:20 UTC | ath9k: Test for TID only in BlockAcks while checking tx status The ath9k xmit functions for AMPDUs can send frames as non-aggregate in case only one frame is currently available. The client will then answer using a normal Ack instead of a BlockAck. This acknowledgement has no TID stored and therefore the hardware is not able to provide us the corresponding TID. The TID set by the hardware in the tx status descriptor has to be seen as undefined and not as a valid TID value for normal acknowledgements. Doing otherwise results in a massive amount of retransmissions and stalls of connections. Users may experience low bandwidth and complete connection stalls in environments with transfers using multiple TIDs. This regression was introduced in b11b160defc48e4daa283f785192ea3a23a51f8e ("ath9k: validate the TID in the tx status information").

This leads to ath9k potentially using less tx power than it can use, which can decrease performance/range in some rare cases. Rather than going through every single driver, this patch initializes chan->orig_mag in wiphy_register(), ignoring whatever value the driver left in there. If a driver for some reason wishes to limit it independent from regulatory rulesets, it can do so internally.

"remained_buf_len" has to be large enough to hold the value from "mgmt_ie_buf_len". That variable is type u32, but it only holds small values so I have changed to both variables to int. Also I removed the bogus initialization from "mgmt_ie_buf_len" so that GCC can detect if it is used unitialized. I moved the declaration of "remained_buf_len" closer to where it is used so it's easier to read.

I checked this with Paul Mackerras before I created the patch and he suggested some extra bits to unexport. (2) Remove linux/blk_types.h entirely from the UAPI as none of it is userspace applicable, and remove from the UAPI that part of linux/fs.h that was the reason for linux/blk_types.h being exported in the first place. I discussed this with Jens Axboe before creating the patch. (3) The big patch of the series to disintegrate include/linux/*.h as a unit. This could be split up, though there would be collisions in moving stuff between the two Kbuild files when the parts are merged as that file is sorted alphabetically rather than being grouped by subsystem. Of this set of headers, 17 files have changed in the UAPI exported region since the 4th and only 8 since the 9th so there isn't much change in this area - as one might expect. It should be pretty obvious and straightforward if it does come to fixing up: stuff in __KERNEL__ guards stays where it is and stuff outside moves to the same file in the include/uapi/linux/ directory. If a new file appears then things get a bit more complicated as the "headers +=" line has to move to include/uapi/linux/Kbuild.

| 7950e38 | Jeff Layton | 10 October 2012, 20:43:13 UTC | vfs: embed struct filename inside of names_cache allocation if possible In the common case where a name is much smaller than PATH_MAX, an extra allocation for struct filename is unnecessary. Before allocating a separate one, try to embed the struct filename inside the buffer first. If it turns out that that's not long enough, then fall back to allocating a separate struct filename and redoing the copy.

| adb5c24 | Jeff Layton | 10 October 2012, 20:43:13 UTC | audit: make audit_inode take struct filename Keep a pointer to the audit_names "slot" in struct filename. Have all of the audit_inode callers pass a struct filename ponter to audit_inode instead of a string pointer. If the aname field is already populated, then we can skip walking the list altogether and just use it directly.

| 669abf4 | Jeff Layton | 10 October 2012, 20:43:10 UTC | vfs: make path_openat take a struct filename pointer ...and fix up the callers. For do_file_open_root, just declare a struct filename on the stack and fill out the .name field. For do_filp_open, make it also take a struct filename pointer, and fix up its callers to call it appropriately. For filp_open, add a variant that takes a struct filename pointer and turn filp_open into a wrapper around it.
