With CONFIG_IWLWIFI_DEVICE_TRACING=y, these functions are rather large, too big for inlining. With this .config: http://busybox.net/~vda/kernel_config, after uninlining these functions have sizes and callsite counts as follows: iwl_read32 475 bytes, 51 callsites iwl_write32 477 bytes, 90

[PATCH v3 0/5] mesh AID fixes

2015-07-14 Thread Bob Copeland
This patchset removes usage of peer link ID as a stand-in for AID, in order to follow the standard in this regard. This revision gained two patches: one was an existing bugfix that was buried in a reorg patch, and the other is a fix for a missing length check found while reviewing the code. Bob

[PATCH v3 5/5] mac80211: select an AID when creating new mesh STAs

2015-07-14 Thread Bob Copeland
Instead of using peer link id for AID, generate a new AID when creating mesh STAs in the kernel peering manager. This enables smaller TIM elements and more closely follows the standard, and it also enables mesh to work on drivers that require a valid AID when the STA is inserted (ath10k firmware

[PATCH v3 4/5] mac80211: mesh: separate plid and aid concepts

2015-07-14 Thread Bob Copeland
According to 802.11-2012 13.3.1, a mesh STA should assign an AID upon receipt of a mesh peering open frame rather than using the link id of the peer. Using the peer link id has two potential issues: it may not be unique among the peers, and by its nature it is random, so the TIM may not compress
