2016-04-12cfg80211: remove enum ieee80211_bandJohannes Berg
This enum is already perfectly aliased to enum nl80211_band, and the only reason for it is that we get IEEE80211_NUM_BANDS out of it. There's no really good reason to not declare the number of bands in nl80211 though, so do that and remove the cfg80211 one. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2014-10-23ath9k_common: always update value in ath9k_cmn_update_txpowFelix Fietkau
In some cases the limit may be the same as reg->power_limit, but the actual value that the hardware uses is not up to date. In that case, a wrong value for current tx power is tracked internally. Fix this by unconditionally updating it. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2011-10-11ath9k_hw: clean up tx power handlingFelix Fietkau
The code for handling various restrictions concerning regulatory limits, antenna gain, etc. is very convoluted and duplicated across various EEPROM parsing implementations, making it hard to review. This patch partially cleans up the mess by unifying regulatory limit handling in one function and simplifying handling of antenna gain. It also removes unused transmit power scaling arrays from the EEPROM code, which belonged to an unimplemented API that isn't supposed to be in the driver anyway.

2010-08-31ath9k: fix spurious MIC failure reportsFelix Fietkau
According to the hardware documentation, the MIC failure bit is only valid if the frame was decrypted using a valid TKIP key and is not a fragment. In some setups I've seen hardware-reported MIC failures on an AP that was configured for CCMP only, so it's clear that additional checks are necessary.

2010-08-16mac80211: use cipher suite selectorsJohannes Berg
Currently, mac80211 translates the cfg80211 cipher suite selectors into ALG_* values. That isn't all too useful, and some drivers benefit from the distinction between WEP40 and WEP104 as well. Therefore, convert it all to use the cipher suite selectors. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Acked-by: Gertjan van Wingerde <gwingerde@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2010-07-02ath9k: fix crash with WEP in ad-hoc modeFelix Fietkau
Commit eed8e22f0133e8278b1f8079fcb452f1f9692f9d added support for using multicast key lookup to support per-vif/sta keys for AP and ad-hoc. Unfortunately, it also introduced a crash in ad-hoc mode when the sta pointer is NULL, which happens when setting up an interface with WEP keys.

This patch replaces the buggy 'ath9k: Group Key fix for VAPs' change. For AP mode group keys, use the BSSID as lookup mac address, with the multicast keysearch bit set.

2010-05-07ath9k_common: drop incomming frames with an invalid hardware rateLuis R. Rodriguez
ath9k_common (used by ath9k and ath9k_htc) trusts the frames blessed by hardware as OK are infact correct even if the rate seen by the driver is unrecognized. ath9k_common just treats these frames in mac80211 as frames as frames under 1 mbps rate. It seems this might not be the best thing to do as other parts of the frame might not be valid so just drop these frames for now. Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <lrodriguez@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2010-05-07ath9k_common: move the rate status setting into ath9k_process_rate()Luis R. Rodriguez
This has no real functional change, this just moves the setting the the mac80211 rate index into ath9k_process_rate(). This allows us to eventually make ath9k_process_rate() return a negative value in case we have detected a specific case rate situation which should have been ignored. Signed-off-by: Luis R.

2010-05-07ath9k: fix another source of corrupt framesFelix Fietkau
Atheros hardware supports receiving frames that span multiple descriptors and buffers. In this case, the rx status of every descriptor except for the last one is invalid and may contain random data. Because the driver does not support this, it needs to drop such frames. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

The calculation of RX filter is fairly different between ath9k and ath9k_htc, trying to make this common between the two drivers would result in code churn.

2009-11-28ath9k: Proper padding/unpadding for the TX/RX path.Benoit Papillault
Software padding is done on the TX path and software unpadding is done on the RX path. This patch corrects the position where the padding occurs. A specific function computes the pad position and this function is used in the TX and RX path.

2009-11-11ath9k_common: clarify and correct jumbogram processingLuis R. Rodriguez
Jumbograms are frames put together linked together through more than one descriptor. For example ath9k_htc will use this to send from the target a large frame split up into 2 or more segments. The driver then would be in charge of putting the frame back together. When jumbograms are constructed the rx_stats->rs_more will bet set and rx_stats->rs_status will not have any valid content as the actual status will only be avialable at the end of the chained descriptors.

2009-11-11ath9k_common: add new module to share 802.11n driver helpersLuis R. Rodriguez
ath9k and ath9k_htc share a lot of common hardware characteristics. They only differ in that ath9k_htc works with a target CPU and ath9k works directly with the hardware. ath9k_htc will do *some* things in the firmware, but a lot of others on the host. The common 802.11n hardware code is already shared through the ath9k_hw module. Common helpers amongst all Atheros drivers can use the ath module, this includes ath5k and ar9170 as users. But there is some common driver specific helpers which are not exactly hardware code which ath9k and ath9k_htc can share. We'll be using ath9k_common for this to avoid bloating the ath module and the common 802.11n hardware module ath9k_hw. We start by sharing skb pre and post processing in preparation for a hand off to mac80211. Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <lrodriguez@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
