catch the oops details, I reboot but they have not appeared in the logs, it must be crashing so hard that the kernel does not get a chance to write them out. On Thu, 2009-03-12 at 13:19 +1100, Geoffrey McRae wrote: > Patched, compiled and running with it now... > > Throughput is still

[ath5k-devel] AR2425 Low Throughput

2009-03-11 Thread Geoffrey McRae
Hi All, I have a laptop with an AR2425 in it, which the latest compat-wireless works great on, all except for the throughput. If I leave the rate to auto, it seems to settle at 36M, but if I force it to 54M, I loose all RX/TX, even though I am less then one meter from the AP. When I do a xfer fr

Isn't that patch slightly wrong anyway? If the length of the ssid is 0 why check its first byte? Without looking at the surrounding code, if that buffer is not allocated and we check the bytes value, it could cause a seg fault. I would think that the better way to write this would be: if ((ssid_

I can see the reason why this seg faults... ani_state = kzalloc(sizeof(struct ath5k_ani_state), GFP_KERNEL); shoud be *ani_state = kzalloc(sizeof(struct ath5k_ani_state), GFP_KERNEL); On Wed, 2008-09-24 at 08:49 -0400, Bob Copeland wrote: > > b) During attach i do a bad memory allocation > >

[ath5k-devel] Support for AR5513

2008-08-31 Thread Geoffrey McRae
Hi All, I have one of these devices in a DLink DWL-G520M, it is currently not supported according to the madwifi wiki in ath5k. I have had a quick look through the source, and it looks to not be supported there either, can anyone please confirm. If not, I will try to provide some traces over the

[ath5k-devel] AR2425 TX Power

2008-07-28 Thread Geoffrey McRae
Hey All, I am using nick's patched driver with ar2425 support. iwconfig is reporting that my TX power is 27dBm, thats about 500mw, is this correct, can this device actually transmit at those levels? In Australia the max legal limit is 100mw as far as I know. Can anyone clear this up? I mean, it w

[ath5k-devel] AR2454 Trace and Development

2008-06-10 Thread Geoffrey McRae
Hi everyone, I am new to hardware hacking and I am looking to get the AR2454 device working in ath5k, however, due to my lack of understanding of the terms used (ie, what is a PHY?), I am finding it very hard to reverse engineer from trace dumps. I have managed to add mmiotrace to a x86_64 2.6.25
