Now that IBSS no longer needs to insert stations from atomic context, we can get rid of all the special cases for that, and even get rid of the sta_lock (though it needs to stay as tim_lock.) This makes the station management code much more straight-forward. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

In order to notify drivers and simplify the station management code, defer IBSS station insertion to a work item and don't do it directly while receiving a frame. This increases the complexity in IBSS a little bit, but it's pretty straight forward and it allows us to reduce the station management complexity (next patch) considerably.

Currently, each AP interface will send multicast traffic if any interface has a station entry even if that station entry is allocated only. With the new station state management we can easily fix it by adding a counter that counts each authorized station only and send multicast traffic only when the correct interface has at least one authorized station.

Station entries can have various states, the most important ones being auth, assoc and authorized. This patch prepares us for telling the driver about these states, we don't want to confuse drivers with strange transitions, so with this we enforce that they move in the right order between them (back and forth); some transitions might happen before the driver even knows about the station, but at least runtime transitions will be ordered correctly. As a consequence, IBSS and MESH stations will now have the ASSOC flag set (so they can transition to AUTHORIZED), and we can get rid of a special case in TX processing. When freeing a station, unwind the state so that other parts of the code (or drivers later) can rely on the transitions. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

There's no need to use RCU here, we can just lock the station mutex instead. This allows the code to sleep, which is necessary for later patches. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

The nl80211 station handling code is a bit messy and doesn't do a lot of validation. It seems like this could be an issue for drivers that don't use mac80211 to validate everything. As cfg80211 doesn't keep station state, move the validation of allowing supported_rates to change for TDLS only in station mode to mac80211.

When compiling wl12xx for x86, there was a warning complaining about the size of the buffer we were allocating in the stack: drivers/net/wireless/wl12xx/debugfs.c: In function 'driver_state_read': drivers/net/wireless/wl12xx/debugfs.c:380:1: warning: the frame size of 1040 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes To prevent this, allocate the buffer in the heap instead.

We need to set the extended radio parameters for wl127x only. Currently, we were only calling this command with wl127x STA mode, but we should also do it for AP mode. Move the call to the extended radio paramaters to the common hw_init and use a single if for the chip type to do everything at once. Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>

We should not get an hlid value bigger than WL12XX_MAX_LINKS from wl1271_rx_handle_data(). We have a WARN_ON in case it happens. But despite the warning, we would still go ahead and write the hlid bit into active_hlids (a stack variable). This would cause us to overwrite other data in the stack. To avoid this problem, we now skip the write when issuing the warning, so at least we don't corrupt data. Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com>

This patch is an initial implementation for the NFC Logical Link Control protocol. It's also known as NFC peer to peer mode. This is a basic implementation as it lacks SDP (services Discovery Protocol), frames aggregation support, and frame rejecion parsing. Follow up patches will implement those missing features. This code has been tested against a Nexus S phone implementing LLCP 1.0. Signed-off-by: Samuel Ortiz <sameo@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

cfg_workqueue was added to notify cfg80211 that scan, connect or disconnect is done by calling respective completion handlers. We can avoid use of this workqueue by calling those handlers from other places. 1) Call connect, disconnect completion handlers in their callback functions. ex. Call cfg80211_connect_result() in mwifiex_cfg80211_connect() 2) Call scan completion handler after parsing response of last scan command in a queue. After removing the workqueue, variables (assoc_request etc.) and checks used for mutual exclusion become redundant. Those are also removed in this patch.
