wifi: cfg80211: Avoid clashing function prototypes When built with Control Flow Integrity, function prototypes between caller and function declaration must match. These mismatches are visible at compile time with the new -Wcast-function-type-strict in Clang[1]. Fix a total of 73 warnings like these: drivers/net/wireless/intersil/orinoco/wext.c:1379:27: warning: cast from 'int (*)(struct net_device *, struct iw_request_info *, struct iw_param *, char *)' to 'iw_handler' (aka 'int (*)(struct net_device *, struct iw_request_info *, union iwreq_data *, char *)') converts to incompatible function type [-Wcast-function-type-strict] IW_HANDLER(SIOCGIWPOWER, (iw_handler)orinoco_ioctl_getpower), ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ../net/wireless/wext-compat.c:1607:33: warning: cast from 'int (*)(struct net_device *, struct iw_request_info *, struct iw_point *, char *)' to 'iw_handler' (aka 'int (*)(struct net_device *, struct iw_request_info *, union iwreq_data *, char *)') converts to incompatible function type [-Wcast-function-type-strict] [IW_IOCTL_IDX(SIOCSIWGENIE)] = (iw_handler) cfg80211_wext_siwgenie, ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ../drivers/net/wireless/intersil/orinoco/wext.c:1390:27: error: incompatible function pointer types initializing 'const iw_handler' (aka 'int (*const)(struct net_device *, struct iw_request_info *, union iwreq_data *, char *)') with an expression of type 'int (struct net_device *, struct iw_request_info *, struct iw_param *, char *)' [-Wincompatible-function-pointer-types] IW_HANDLER(SIOCGIWRETRY, cfg80211_wext_giwretry), ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The cfg80211 Wireless Extension handler callbacks (iw_handler) use a union for the data argument. Actually use the union and perform explicit member selection in the function body instead of having a function prototype mismatch. There are no resulting binary differences before/after changes. These changes were made partly manually and partly with the help of Coccinelle. Link: https://github.com/KSPP/linux/issues/234 Link: https://reviews.llvm.org/D134831 [1] Signed-off-by: Gustavo A. R.

cfg80211: remove unused wext handler exports A lot of code is dedicated to giving drivers the ability to use cfg80211's wext handlers without completely converting. However, only orinoco is currently using this, and it is only partially using it. We reduce the size of both the source and binary by removing those that nobody needs. If a driver shows up that needs it during conversion, we can add back those that are needed. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
