There's really no reason for mac80211 to be using its own interface type defines. Use the nl80211 types and simplify the configuration code a bit: there's no need to translate them any more now.

2008-09-05cfg80211: keep track of supported interface modesLuis R. Rodriguez
It is obviously good for userspace to know up front which interface modes a given piece of hardware might support (even if adding such an interface might fail later because of concurrency issues), so let's make cfg80211 aware of that. For good measure, disallow adding interfaces in all other modes so drivers don't forget to announce support for one mode when they add it.

2008-07-14mac80211: revamp beacon configurationJohannes Berg
This patch changes mac80211's beacon configuration handling to never pass skbs to the driver directly but rather always require the driver to use ieee80211_beacon_get(). Additionally, it introduces "change flags" on the config_interface() call to enable drivers to figure out what is changing. Finally, it removes the beacon_update() driver callback in favour of having IBSS beacon delivered by ieee80211_beacon_get() as well.

2008-05-21mac80211: move TX info into skb->cbJohannes Berg
This patch converts mac80211 and all drivers to have transmit information and status in skb->cb rather than allocating extra memory for it and copying all the data around. To make it fit, a union is used where only data that is necessary for all steps is kept outside of the union. A number of fixes were done by Ivo, as well as the rt2x00 part of this patch.

This patch modifies struct ieee80211_tx_control to give band info and the rate index (instead of rate pointers) to drivers.

2008-05-14mac80211: use hardware flags for signal/noise unitsBruno Randolf
trying to clean up the signal/noise code. the previous code in mac80211 had confusing names for the related variables, did not have much definition of what units of signal and noise were provided and used implicit mechanisms from the wireless extensions. this patch introduces hardware capability flags to let the hardware specify clearly if it can provide signal and noise level values and which units it can provide. this also anticipates possible new units like RCPI in the future. for signal: IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_UNSPEC - unspecified, unknown, hw specific IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DB - dB difference to unspecified reference point IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DBM - dBm, difference to 1mW for noise we currently only have dBm: IEEE80211_HW_NOISE_DBM - dBm, difference to 1mW if IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_UNSPEC or IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DB is used the driver has to provide the maximum value (max_signal) it reports in order for applications to make sense of the signal values. i tried my best to find out for each driver what it can provide and update it but i'm not sure (?) for some of them and used the more conservative guess in doubt. this can be fixed easily after this patch has been merged by changing the hardware flags of the driver.

2008-03-06zd1211rw: support for mesh interface and beaconingLuis Carlos Cobo
The previously unused CR_CAM_MODE register is set to MODE_AP_WDS. This makes the driver ack mesh (WDS) frames. It does not affect Infra functionality of the driver. Previously missing beaconing support has been added. This might also help implement a currently missing ah-hoc mode. Support for interrupts from the device have been added, but we are not handling most of them. Mesh interfaces are considered associated as long as the interface is up.

2008-02-29zd1211rw: Fix beacon filter flags thinkoMichael Buesch
We must not clear the FIF_BCN_PRBRESP_PROMISC bit in the new_flags. The zd-driver does support sending beacons and probe responses to the host. What the flag does is say "Send me all beacons and probe responses". And we actually do that. We always do that, so we ignore the case when the bit is disabled. But that is fine. But we must not clear the flag, as that tells mac80211 that we do not support passing beacons and probe responses to the stack. And that's not true.

2008-02-29cfg80211 API for channels/bitrates, mac80211 and driver conversionJohannes Berg
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.

2008-01-28mac80211: add unified BSS configurationJohannes Berg
This patch (based on Ron Rindjunsky's) creates a framework for a unified way to pass BSS configuration to drivers that require the information, e.g. for implementing power save mode. This patch introduces new ieee80211_bss_conf structure that is passed to the driver via the new bss_info_changed() callback when the BSS configuration changes. This new BSS configuration infrastructure adds the following new features: * drivers are notified of their association AID * drivers are notified of association status and replaces the erp_ie_changed() callback. The patch also does the relevant driver updates for the latter change.

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.

2007-10-10[PATCH] zd1211rw: consistent handling of ZD1211 specific ratesUlrich Kunitz
As pointed out by Daniel Drake, the zd1211rw driver used several different rate values and names throughout the driver. He has written a patch to change it and tweaked it after some pretty wild ideas from my side. But the discussion helped me to understand the problem better and I think I have nailed it down with this patch. A zd-rate will consist from now on of a four-bit "pure" rate value and a modulation type flag as used in the ZD1211 control set used for packet transmission. This is consistent with the usage in the zd_rates table. If possible these zd-rates should be used in the code.
