airo: fix setting zero length WEP key

2010-04-01T22:55:54Z

commit f09c256375c7cf1e112b8ef6306cdd313490d7c0 upstream. Patch prevents call set_wep_key() with zero key length. That fix long standing regression since commit c0380693520b1a1e4f756799a0edc379378b462a "airo: clean up WEP key operations". Additionally print call trace when someone will try to use improper parameters, and remove key.len = 0 assignment, because it is in not possible code path.

net: use symbolic values for ndo_start_xmit() return codes

2009-06-13T08:18:50Z

Convert magic values 1 and -1 to NETDEV_TX_BUSY and NETDEV_TX_LOCKED respectively. 0 (NETDEV_TX_OK) is not changed to keep the noise down, except in very few cases where its in direct proximity to one of the other values. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

airo: fix airo_get_encode{,ext} buffer overflow like I mean it...

2009-05-20T18:29:54Z

"airo: airo_get_encode{,ext} potential buffer overflow" was actually a no-op, due to an unrecognized type overflow in an assignment. Oddly, gcc only seems to tell me about it when using -Wextra...grrr... Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

Feeding the return code of get_wep_key directly to the length parameter of memcpy is a bad idea since it could be -1... Reported-by: Eugene Teo Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

airo: queue SIOCSIWAUTH-requested auth mode change for next commit

2009-04-16T14:39:10Z

Code was clearly wrong, plus callers expect the mode change to happen as soon as possible, not dropped on the floor until the next time some other config value changes and a commit happens. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

proc 2/2: remove struct proc_dir_entry::owner

2009-03-30T21:14:44Z

Setting ->owner as done currently (pde->owner = THIS_MODULE) is racy as correctly noted at bug #12454. Someone can lookup entry with NULL ->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting in module refcount underflow. We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops and ->data. But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment) and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give some thoughts. ->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for protection. rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm. And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular. We definitely don't want such modular code. Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller. So, let's nuke it. Kudos to Jeff Layton for reminding about this, let's say, oversight. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12454 Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan
