I think there is still a problem with the AIMD parameter update in
HighSpeed TCP code.

Line 125~138 of the code (net/ipv4/tcp_highspeed.c):

	/* Update AIMD parameters */
	if (tp->snd_cwnd > hstcp_aimd_vals[ca->ai].cwnd) {
		while (tp->snd_cwnd > hstcp_aimd_vals[ca->ai].cwnd &&
		       ca->ai < HSTCP_AIMD_MAX - 1)
			ca->ai++;
	} else if (tp->snd_cwnd < hstcp_aimd_vals[ca->ai].cwnd) {
		while (tp->snd_cwnd > hstcp_aimd_vals[ca->ai].cwnd &&
		       ca->ai > 0)
			ca->ai--;

In fact, the second part (decreasing ca->ai) never decreases since the
while loop's inequality is in the reverse direction. This leads to
unfairness with multiple flows (once a flow happens to enjoy a higher
ca->ai, it keeps enjoying that even its cwnd decreases)

Here is a tentative fix (I also added a comment, trying to keep the
change clear):

ok this is a real potential deadlock in a way, it takes two locks of 2

This patch addresses the "No queue exists" messages commonly seen during
authentication and associating.  These appear due to scheduling multiple
authentication attempts on the same network.  To prevent this, I added a
flag to stop multiple authentication attempts by the association layer.
I also added a check to the wx handler to see if we're connecting to a
different network than the one already in progress.  This scenario was
causing multiple requests on the same network because the network BSSID
was not being updated despite the fact that the ESSID changed.

In commit ba9b28d1, routine
ieee80211softmac_capabilities was added to ieee80211softmac_io.c. As
denoted by its name, it completes the capabilities IE that is
needed in the associate and reassociate requests sent to the
AP. For at least one AP, the Linksys WRT54G V5, the capabilities
field must set the 'short preamble' bit or the AP refuses to
associate. In the commit noted above, there is a call to the
new routine from ieee80211softmac_reassoc_req, but not from
ieee80211softmac_assoc_req. This patch fixes that oversight.

As noted in the subject, v2.6.17 is affected. My bcm43xx card had been
unable to associate since I was forced to buy a new AP. I finally was
able to get a packet dump and traced the problem to the capabilities
info. Although I had heard that a patch was "floating around", I had
not seen it before 2.6.17 was released. As this bug does not affect
security and I seem to have the only AP affected by it, there should
be no problem in leaving it for 2.6.18.
