6b63cd0f42 [PATCH] libertas: remove a hundred CMD_RET_xxx definitions
types.h contains the same amount of CMD_RET_xxx and CMD_xxx definitions.
They contains the same info: the firmware command opcode and, when the
firmware sends back a result, the command opcode ORed with 0x8000.

Having the same data twice in the source code is redundant and can lead to
errors (e.g. if you update or delete only one instance). This patch removed
all CMD_RET_xxx definitions and introduces a simple CMD_RET() macro.

ece5619193 [PATCH] libertas: make the hex dumper nicer
Currently, when you define LBS_DEB_HEX, you get every hex dump in the
whole driver, e.g. for LBS_DEB_CMD, LBS_DEB_RX, LBS_DEB_TX etc. This
patch makes sure that you only get the hexdump that you're interested in.

Renamed lbs_dbg_hex() into lbs_deb_hex(), like the other lbs_deb_XXX()
macros.

Made lbs_deb_hex() issue a line feed (and a new prompt) after 16 bytes.

As lbs_deb_hex() now prints the ":" after the prompt by itself, removed
the misc colons in the various *.c files.

lbs_deb_XXX() now print the debug category as well.

As lbs_deb_XXX() --- and especially lbs_deb_11d() --- now print the
category, I removed various "11D:" prefixes in 11d.c as well.

1df4e8fe91 [PATCH] libertas: remove fw.c
Firmware download is quite different for different hardware. The SDIO and CF
cards have two flat files that need to be downloaded, whereas the USB driver
needs only one file, but with an internal structure.

The code that handles this (USB only) structured file is currently in fw.c.
This patch moves this code into if_usb.c. The remaining functions in fw.c
have not much to do with firmware, they are various card- and network-stack
initialisation functions. I've moved them into main.c.

8c51276575 [PATCH] libertas: simplify and clean up data rate handling
Remove unused/duplicated fields and consolidate static data rate arrays,
for example the libertas_supported_rates[] and datarates[] arrays in
the bss_descriptor structure, and the libertas_supported_rates field
in the wlan_adapter structure.

Introduce libertas_fw_index_to_data_rate and libertas_data_rate_to_fw_index
functions and use them everywhere firmware requires a rate index rather
than a rate array.

The firmware requires the 4 basic rates to have the MSB set, but most
other stuff doesn't, like WEXT and mesh ioctls.  Therefore, only set the MSB
on basic rates when pushing rate arrays to firmware instead of doing a ton
of (rate & 0x7f) everywhere.

1e838bf31c [PATCH] libertas: specific mesh scan for mshX interface
With this patch, scanning with mshX interface will only return mesh networks. To
differentiate them, a specific mesh IE in beacons/probe responses is used. This
IE has been introduced in firmware release 5.110.14. Note:

Even though there can be at most a single mesh per channel, this scan might
return several networks in the same channel.

If all nodes in a mesh network are associated to an AP, they won't produce
beacons/probe responses, thus the network will not be listed. This will be fixed
in future firmware releases.

Scan on ethX interface is not filtered, so it will list both mesh and non-mesh
networks.

ce286d3273 [NET]: Implement network device movement between namespaces
This patch introduces NETIF_F_NETNS_LOCAL a flag to indicate
a network device is local to a single network namespace and
should never be moved.  Useful for pseudo devices that we
need an instance in each network namespace (like the loopback
device) and for any device we find that cannot handle multiple
network namespaces so we may trap them in the initial network
namespace.

This patch introduces the function dev_change_net_namespace
a function used to move a network device from one network
namespace to another.  To the network device nothing
special appears to happen, to the components of the network
stack it appears as if the network device was unregistered
in the network namespace it is in, and a new device
was registered in the network namespace the device
was moved to.

This patch sets up a namespace device destructor that
upon the exit of a network namespace moves all of the
movable network devices  to the initial network namespace
so they are not lost.

881d966b48 [NET]: Make the device list and device lookups per namespace.
This patch makes most of the generic device layer network
namespace safe.  This patch makes dev_base_head a
network namespace variable, and then it picks up
a few associated variables.  The functions:
dev_getbyhwaddr
dev_getfirsthwbytype
dev_get_by_flags
dev_get_by_name
__dev_get_by_name
dev_get_by_index
__dev_get_by_index
dev_ioctl
dev_ethtool
dev_load
wireless_process_ioctl

were modified to take a network namespace argument, and
deal with it.

vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their
hooks will receive a network namespace argument.

So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was
affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle
multiple network namespaces.  The rest of the network stack was
simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network
namespace.  This can be fixed when those components of the network
stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces.

For now the ifindex generator is left global.

Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else
we will have corner case problems with migration when
we get that far.

At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack
that the ifindex of a network device won't change.  Making
the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until
the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when
you change namespaces, and the like.

e9dc865340 [NET]: Make device event notification network namespace safe
Every user of the network device notifiers is either a protocol
stack or a pseudo device.  If a protocol stack that does not have
support for multiple network namespaces receives an event for a
device that is not in the initial network namespace it quite possibly
can get confused and do the wrong thing.

To avoid problems until all of the protocol stacks are converted
this patch modifies all netdev event handlers to ignore events on
devices that are not in the initial network namespace.

As the rest of the code is made network namespace aware these
checks can be removed.

e730c15519 [NET]: Make packet reception network namespace safe
This patch modifies every packet receive function
registered with dev_add_pack() to drop packets if they
are not from the initial network namespace.

This should ensure that the various network stacks do
not receive packets in a anything but the initial network
namespace until the code has been converted and is ready
for them.

1b8d7ae42d [NET]: Make socket creation namespace safe.
This patch passes in the namespace a new socket should be created in
and has the socket code do the appropriate reference counting.  By
virtue of this all socket create methods are touched.  In addition
the socket create methods are modified so that they will fail if
you attempt to create a socket in a non-default network namespace.

Failing if we attempt to create a socket outside of the default
network namespace ensures that as we incrementally make the network stack
network namespace aware we will not export functionality that someone
has not audited and made certain is network namespace safe.
Allowing us to partially enable network namespaces before all of the
exotic protocols are supported.

Any protocol layers I have missed will fail to compile because I now
pass an extra parameter into the socket creation code.

457c4cbc5a [NET]: Make /proc/net per network namespace
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.

ab0049b4a2 [TG3]: remove sparse warnings
Removed sparse warnings from tg3 driver.  The new logic seems fine (I
don't immediately see where we are running over values for any of the
variables that need to be saved).

This patch compiles fine and I'm currently using a tg3 with the patched
driver to post this patch as a basic proof of concept.
