We update the version stamp at this time to distinguish the in-kernel driver from the out of tree driver. The out of tree driver currently has version number 1.2.25, but the latest driver code can only be found in this in-kernel driver. Having a later version number will reduce confusion between the two versions as we transition from out of tree to in-kernel. Signed-off-by:

When we want to go multiqueue, we will need to know the number of queues the hardware has for registering the master netdev. This number is only available in ieee80211_register_hw() rather than ieee80211_alloc_hw(), so defer allocation of the master device to ieee80211_register_hw(). Signed-off-by:

This patch removes the IWL4965_QOS and IWL3945_QOS defines from Kconfig file along with all uses of it. These defines were relevant for the period QoS code was tested to be stable in driver's flows. Signed-off-by:

This adds "cooked" monitor mode to mac80211. A monitor interface in "cooked" mode will see all frames that mac80211 has not used internally. Signed-off-by:

There is some duplicated code that sits in front of each function call to ieee80211_invoke_rx_handlers() that can very well be part of that function if it gets slightly different arguments. Signed-off-by:
-
Johannes Berg authored
It doesn't really make sense to have extra pointers to the RX/TX handler arrays instead of just using the arrays directly, that also allows us to make them static. Signed-off-by:

Johannes Berg authored
Uninline ieee80211_invoke_rx_handlers to save .text space, make the code more readable in some places and remove the "optimisation" that is hit only very few times and unclear to start with. Signed-off-by:

Some instances of RX_DROP mean that the frame was useless, others mean that the frame should be visible in userspace on "cooked" monitor interfaces. This patch splits up RX_DROP and changes each instance appropriately. Signed-off-by:
-
Johannes Berg authored
The _DROP result will need to be split in the RX path but not in the TX path, so for preparation split up the type into two types, one for RX and one for TX. Also make sure (via sparse) that they cannot be confused. Signed-off-by:

Add kerneldoc for vendor request functions in rt2x00usb. Add asynchroneous vendor request function in rt2x00usb. With the availability of the asynchroneuous vendor request we can now enable LED class support for rt2500usb and rt73usb. Since LED handling is not important, it doesn't really matter if a register call fails (This solution is better then no LED class support at all). Signed-off-by:

Ivo van Doorn authored
Make use of the led triggers provided by mac80211 to control the led status. This can be enabled through a per-driver configuration option which will automatically enable the generic handler in rt2x00lib. This has been enabled for rt2500usb and rt73usb for the moment since the led class will call set_brightness in irq context which will not work correctly with the usb drivers who need to sleep.

rt2500usb initialized the SIFS and EIFS without using the values coming from rt2x000lib. After this is fixed HWMODE_{A,B,G} is now unused and can be removed in favour of the ieee80211_band enumeration which could still be usefull later. Signed-off-by: -

Recent changes to the rate structure registration broke rt2x00, the hw_value was reduced from 32bits to 16bits while rt2x00 used the full 32bits. However the way rt2x00 used the value was inflexible and needed to be changed anyway. This patch creates a array containing information for each rate, the hw_value passed to mac80211 is the index value for that array including a field to indicate if short preamble should be enabled.

This patch finishes the port and enables debug as an build option. This was tested on: Atheros AR5213A chip found (MAC: 0x59, PHY: 0x43) RF5112A multiband radio found (0x36) Note: For 2 GHz band on the above card I noticed we get negative channel numbers. Will look into this unless someone beats me to it.

Apologoes, this is a re-post of patch-04, forgot to git-add our Kconfig... New series (only 2 patches needed fixing, which I am reposting) can be found here: http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/mcgrof/patches/ath5k/2008-02-04.v2/ Use our own Kconfig file, we'll be expanding this shortly.

Luis R. Rodriguez authored
Cleanup after API changes patch (checkpatch.pl stuff) and on ath5k_hw_channel() make use of the existing ath5k_channel_ok() instead of re-implementing the checks again. This was necessary to make the code cleaner and fit the 80-chars wide limit so sending it within the same patch. Finally make a note that we *may* eventually move cap_range stuff to struct wiphy (band frequency range capabilities). This information can later be exported to userspace, for example, and giving it access to mac80211 and drivers in general can come in handy.

When the driver registers a IEEE80211_BAND_2GHZ band, it can either be 802.11b or 802.11g. But when 802.11b rates are registered "want" will be 3 (since 4 rates are being registered, and each of those 4 rates will decrease "want"). Since this is a correct situation, there is no need to trigger a WARN_ON() for this. Signed-off-by:

Merge rate_control_pid_shift_adjust() to rate_control_pid_adjust_rate() in order to make the learning algorithm aware of constraints on rates. Also add some comments and rename variables. This fixes a bug which prevented 802.11b/g non-AP STAs from working with 802.11b only AP STAs. Signed-off-by:

This patch removes the 802.1X port acess control enable flag since it is not required. Instead, set the authorized flag for each station that we normally communicate with (WDS peers, IBSS peers and APs we're associated to) and require hostapd to set the authorized flag for all stations when port control is not enabled. Also, since I was working in that area, this documents station flags and removes the unused "permanent" one. Signed-off-by:

When checking for the next band to advance to, there was an off-by-one error that could lead to an access to an invalid array index. Additionally, the later check for scan_band >= IEEE80211_NUM_BANDS is not required since that will never be true. This also improves the comments related to that code. Signed-off-by:

This makes nl80211 export the hardware bitrate/channel capabilities as registered in a wiphy. Signed-off-by:
-
Johannes Berg authored
This patch creates new cfg80211 wiphy API for channel and bitrate registration and converts mac80211 and drivers to the new API. The old mac80211 API is completely ripped out. All drivers (except ath5k) are updated to the new API, in many cases I expect that optimisations can be done. Along with the regulatory code I've also ripped out the IEEE80211_HW_DEFAULT_REG_DOMAIN_CONFIGURED flag, I believe it to be unnecessary if the hardware simply gives us whatever channels it wants to support and we then enable/disable them as required, which is pretty much required for travelling. Additionally, the patch adds proper "basic" rate handling for STA mode interface, AP mode interface will have to have new API added to allow userspace to set the basic rate set, currently it'll be empty... However, the basic rate handling will need to be moved to the BSS conf stuff. I do expect there to be bugs in this, especially wrt. transmit power handling where I'm basically clueless about how it should work. Signed-off-by:
