From 2f561feb386d6adefbad63c59a1fcd298ac6a79c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ivo van Doorn Date: Sat, 10 May 2008 13:40:49 +0200 Subject: mac80211: Add RTNL version of ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces Since commit e38bad4766a110b61fa6038f10be16ced8c6cc38 mac80211: make ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces not need rtnl rt2500usb and rt73usb broke down due to attempting register access in atomic context (which is not possible for USB hardware). This patch restores ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces() to use RTNL lock, and provides the non-RTNL version under a new name: ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces_atomic() So far only rt2x00 uses ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces(), and those drivers require the RTNL version of ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces(). Since they already call that function directly, this patch will automatically fix the USB rt2x00 drivers. v2: Rename ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces_rtnl Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn Acked-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W.
