2008-02-29ath5k: Port to new bitrate/channel APILuis R. Rodriguez
Author: Nick Kossifidis <mickflemm@gmail.com> Tested on 5211, 5213+5112, 5213A+2112A and it wors fine. Also i figured out a way to process rate vallue found on status descriptors, it's still buggy but we are getting closer (i think it improved stability a little).

2008-02-29wireless: Fix WARN_ON() with ieee802.11bIvo van Doorn
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: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2008-02-29wireless: fix ERP rate flagsJohannes Berg

2008-02-29rc80211-pid: fix rate adjustmentStefano Brivio
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.

2008-02-29mac80211: remove port control enable switch, clean up sta flagsJohannes Berg
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: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

2008-02-29mac80211: fix scan band off-by-one errorJohannes Berg
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.

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.

2008-02-29rt2x00: Move beacon and atim queue defines into rt2x00Ivo van Doorn
As Johannes Berg indicated the BEACON and AFTER_BEACON queue indeces in mac80211 should be removed because they are too hardware specific. This patch adds the queue index defines into rt2x00queue.h and removes the dependency of the defines inside mac80211.h. Also move rt2x00pci_beacon_update() into rt2400pci and rt2500pci individually since it is no longer a generic function since rt61 and rt2800 no longer use that.

2008-02-29rt2x00: Add per-interface structureIvo van Doorn
Rework the interface handling. Delete the interface structure and replace it with a per-interface structure. This changes the way rt2x00 handles the active interface drastically. Copy ieee80211_bss_conf to the this rt2x00_intf structure during the bss_info_changed() callback function. This will allow us to reference it later, and removes the requirement for the device flag SHORT_PREAMBLE flag which is interface specific. Drivers receive the option to give the maximum number of virtual interfaces the device can handle. Virtual interface support: rt2400pci: 1 sta or 1 ap, * monitor interfaces rt2500pci: 1 sta or 1 ap, * monitor interfaces rt2500usb: 1 sta or 1 ap, * monitor interfaces rt61pci: 1 sta or 4 ap, * monitor interfaces rt73usb: 1 sta or 4 ap, * monitor interfaces At the moment none of the drivers support AP and STA interfaces simultaneously, this is a hardware limitation so future support will be very unlikely. Each interface structure receives its dedicated beacon entry, with this we can easily work with beaconing while multiple master mode interfaces are currently active. The configuration handlers for the MAC, BSSID and type are often called together since they all belong to the interface configuration. Merge the 3 configuration calls and cleanup the API between rt2x00lib and the drivers. While we are cleaning up the interface configuration anyway, we might as well clean up the configuration handler as well. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2008-02-29rt2x00: Driver requiring firmware should select crc algoIvo van Doorn
The driver should select what CRC algorithm is required when performing a checksum on the firmware. rt61pci & rt73usb require crc-itu-t rt2800pci & rt2800usb require crc-ccitt Legacy 2800pci/usb driver uses crc-itu-t + bit order reversion, but that is just inefficient especially since the end result is the same as a different algorithm which is also available as library. ;) Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2008-02-29rt2x00: Enable master and adhoc mode againIvo van Doorn

2008-02-29rt2x00: don't write past the end when writing short descriptors on rt61Adam Baker

2008-02-29rt2x00: Queue handling overhaulIvo van Doorn
This introduces a big queue handling overhaul, this also renames "ring" to "queues". Move queue handling into rt2x00queue.c and the matching header, use Kerneldoc to improve rt2x00 library documentation. Access to the queues is now protected under a spinlock, this to prevent race conditions which could corrupt the indexing system of the queue. Each queue entry allocates x bytes for driver/device specific data, this cleans up the queue structure significantly and improves code readability. rt2500usb no longer needs 2 entries in the beacon queue to correctly send out the guardian byte. This is now handled in the entry specific structure. rt61 and rt73 now use the correct descriptor size for beacon frames, since this data is written into the registers not the entire TXD descriptor was used but instead of a subset of it named TXINFO. Finally this also fixes numerous other bugs related to incorrect beacon handling or beacon related code. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
