2010-12-06iwlwifi: jiffies based tx queues watchdogStanislaw Gruszka
This patch replace monitor/recover timer by watchdog based on time stamp. New code allow to discover hangs more precisely. Timeout values are currently doubled monitoring period values of previous timer. This have to be tuned based of firmware timing capabilities. Tested on 3945, 4965, 5300, 6300.

2010-12-06cfg80211/mac80211: add mesh join/leave commandsJohannes Berg
Instead of tying mesh activity to interface up, add join and leave commands for mesh. Since we must be backward compatible, let cfg80211 handle joining a mesh if a mesh ID was pre-configured when the device goes up. Note that this therefore must modify mac80211 as well since mac80211 needs to lose the logic to start the mesh on interface up. We now allow querying mesh parameters before the mesh is connected, which simply returns defaults. Setting them (internally renamed to "update") is only allowed while connected. Specify them with the new mesh join command instead where needed. In mac80211, beaconing must now also follow the mesh enabled/not enabled state, which is done by testing the mesh ID.

2010-12-06cfg80211: require add_virtual_intf to return new devJohannes Berg
cfg80211 used to do all its bookkeeping in the notifier, but some new stuff will have to use local variables so make the callback return the netdev pointer.

2010-12-06nl80211/mac80211: define and allow configuring mesh element TTLJavier Cardona

2010-12-06ath5k: Always free tx buffers before resetNick Kossifidis
* Always free tx buffers before reset, since we also empty hw queues. If we don't and a queue gets stuck, we'll never decrease txq_len and sw will keep thinking the queue is still stuck even after reset.

2010-12-06mac80211: speed up AP probing using nullfunc framesFelix Fietkau
If the nullfunc frame used to probe the AP was not acked, there is no point in waiting for the probe timeout, so advance to the next try (or disconnect) immediately. If we do reach the probe timeout without having received a tx status, the connection is probably really bad and worth disconnecting.

2010-12-06lib: Improve EWMA efficiency by using bitshiftsBruno Randolf

2010-12-06mac80211: Update last_tx_rate only for data framesHelmut Schaa
The last_tx_rate field was also updated for non-data frames that are often sent with a lower rate (for example management frames at 1 Mbps). This is confusing when the data rate is actually much higher. Hence, only update the last_tx_rate field with tx rate information gathered from last data frames. If the rate control algorithm filled in txrc.reported_rate we don't need to verify this information.
