2015-04-24mac80211: remove support for IFF_PROMISCJohannes Berg
This support is essentially useless as typically networks are encrypted, frames will be filtered by hardware, and rate scaling will be done with the intended recipient in mind. For real monitoring of the network, the monitor mode support should be used instead. Removing it removes a lot of corner cases. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2014-09-15ath9k_htc: fix random decryption failureJohannes Stezenbach
In v3.15 the driver stopped to accept network packets after successful authentification, which could be worked around by passing the nohwcrypt=1 module parameter. This was not reproducible by everyone, and showed random behaviour in some tests. It was caused by an uninitialized variable introduced in 4ed1a8d4a257 ("ath9k_htc: use ath9k_cmn_rx_accept") and used in 341b29b9cd2f ("ath9k_htc: use ath9k_cmn_rx_skb_postprocess").

2013-08-22ath9k_htc: Restore skb headroom when returning skb to mac80211Helmut Schaa
ath9k_htc adds padding between the 802.11 header and the payload during TX by moving the header. When handing the frame back to mac80211 for TX status handling the header is not moved back into its original position. This can result in a too small skb headroom when entering ath9k_htc again (due to a soft retransmission for example) causing an skb_under_panic oops. Fix this by moving the 802.11 header back into its original position before returning the frame to mac80211 as other drivers like rt2x00 or ath5k do.

2013-02-27ath9k_htc: fix signal strength handling issuesFelix Fietkau
The ath9k commit 2ef167557c0a26c88162ecffb017bfcc51eb7b29 (ath9k: fix signal strength reporting issues) fixed an issue where the reported per-frame signal strength reported to mac80211 was being overwritten with an internal average. The same issue is also present in ath9k_htc. In addition to preventing the driver from overwriting the value, this commit also ensures that the internal average (which is used for ANI) only tracks beacons of the AP that we're connected to.

2011-04-13ath9k_htc: Drain pending TX frames properlySujith Manoharan
When doing a channel set or a reset operation the pending frames queued up for transmission have to be flushed and sent to mac80211.

This patch adds proper support for draining and all the callsites namely, channel change/reset/idle/stop are fixed. A separate queue is used for handling failed frames.

For all packets sent through the USB_WLAN_TX_PIPE endpoint, the private area of the SKB's tx_info can be used to store driver-specific information. For packets sent through USB_REG_OUT_PIPE, this will not make a difference since they are routed through a separate routine that doesn't access the private region.
