2008-01-28ath5k: use 3 instead of 0x00000003Bruno Randolf
reviewed beacon timer initialization with register traces from madwifi: what we are doing is correct :). one minor fix: use 3 instead of 0x00000003 - it's more readable. drivers/net/wireless/ath5k/hw.c: Changes-licensed-under: ISC Signed-off-by: Bruno Randolf <bruno@thinktube.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2008-01-28ath5k: Fix frame duration oopsLuis R. Rodriguez
This patch fixes an oops which was introduced as a regression by commit fd640775bd16e1df50c867cc547af0, on the patch titled, "mac80211: dont use interface indices in drivers". ieee80211_generic_frame_duration() now relies on sdata->flags which itself gets set upon bringing the interface up. We check for the virtual interface now before setting the rate duration registers. After the mode changes are introduced onto mac80211 we should revisit these changes. This patch was tested on the following cards: 1) BG card: Atheros AR5213A chip found (MAC: 0x59, PHY: 0x43) RF2112A 2GHz radio found (0x46) 2) ABG card: Atheros AR5213A chip found (MAC: 0x59,PHY: 0x43) RF5112A multiband radio found (0x36) Signed-off-by: Luis R.

2008-01-28mac80211: dont use interface indices in driversJohannes Berg
This patch gets rid of the if_id stuff where possible in favour of a new per-virtual-interface structure "struct ieee80211_vif". This structure is located at the end of the per-interface structure and contains a variable length driver-use data area. This has two advantages: * removes the need to look up interfaces by if_id, this is better for working with network namespaces and performance * allows drivers to store and retrieve per-interface data without having to allocate own lists/hash tables Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.
