2012-07-09nl80211: prepare for non-netdev wireless devsJohannes Berg
In order to support a P2P device abstraction and Bluetooth high-speed AMPs, we need to have a way to identify virtual interfaces that don't have a netdev associated. Do this by adding a NL80211_ATTR_WDEV attribute to identify a wdev which may or may not also be a netdev. To simplify things, use a 64-bit value with the high 32 bits being the wiphy index for this new wdev identifier in the nl80211 API. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2012-07-05{nl,cfg}80211: support high bitratesVladimir Kondratiev
Until now, a u16 value was used to represent bitrate value. With VHT bitrates this becomes too small. Introduce a new 32-bit bitrate attribute. nl80211 will report both the new and the old attribute, unless the bitrate doesn't fit into the old u16 attribute in which case only the new one will be reported. User space tools encouraged to prefer the 32-bit attribute, if available (since it won't be available on older kernels.)

2012-07-04cfg80211: fix locking regression in monitor channel trackingJohannes Berg
Michal's monitor channel tracking introduce a locking problem as it locked the rdev lock inside the netdev notifier which isn't allowed as we might already hold it if we get there by removing an interface that is up. Fix this by relying only on the RTNL to protect the interface counters, the RTNL is always held in these code paths anyway. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

.connect cannot be handled since the driver scans and connects on its own. It is up to the driver then to refuse a connection (with -EBUSY for example).

2012-06-29cfg80211: track monitor interfaces countMichal Kazior
Implements .set_monitor_enabled(wiphy, enabled). Notifies driver upon change of interface layout. If only monitor interfaces become present it is called with 2nd argument being true. If non-monitor interface appears then 2nd argument is false. Driver is notified only upon change. This makes it more obvious about the fact that cfg80211 supports single monitor channel. Once we implement multi-channel we don't want to allow setting monitor channel while other interface types are running.

When CONFIG_PM is disabled, no device can possibly support WoWLAN since it can't go to sleep to start with. Due to this, mac80211 had even rejected the hardware registration. By making all the code and data for WoWLAN depend on CONFIG_PM we can promote this runtime error to a compile-time error.

2012-06-20cfg80211: fix regression in multi-vif AP startFelix Fietkau
Commit "cfg80211: provide channel to start_ap function" assumes that the channel is always passed to the NL80211_CMD_START_AP command, however in case of multi-BSSID, hostapd only passes the channel for the first vif. This makes starting beaconing on secondary vifs fail with -EINVAL.

2012-06-05cfg80211: provide channel to join_mesh functionJohannes Berg
Just like the AP mode patch, instead of setting the channel and then joining the mesh network, provide the channel to join the network on to the join_mesh() function. Like in AP mode, you can also give the channel to the join-mesh nl80211 command now. Unlike AP mode, it picks a default channel if none was given. As libertas uses mesh mode interfaces but has no join_mesh callback and we can't simply break it, keep some compatibility code for that case and configure the channel directly for it. In the non-libertas case, where we store the channel until join, allow setting it while the interface is down. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

Instead of setting the channel first and then starting the AP, let cfg80211 store the channel and provide it as one of the AP settings.

Alternatively, it's now possible to give the channel as an attribute to the start-ap nl80211 command, overriding any preset channel.

2012-06-05cfg80211: simplify cfg80211_can_beacon_sec_chan APIJohannes Berg
Change cfg80211_can_beacon_sec_chan() to return true if there is no secondary channel to simplify all the current users of it. They all check the channel type before calling the function because it returns false if there's no secondary channel. Also actually document the return value.

2012-06-05cfg80211: deprecate CFG80211_WEXTJohannes Berg
Almost all wireless tools have transitioned to or at least added compatibility with nl80211 so there's no real need for CONFIG_CFG80211_WEXT any more. Mark it for removal, and also change the default to not be enabled. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2012-06-05cfg80211: fix interface combinations checkJohannes Berg
If a given interface combination doesn't contain a required interface type then we missed checking that and erroneously allowed it even though iface type wasn't there at all. Add a check that makes sure that all interface types are accounted for.
