2012-01-24wireless: Save original maximum regulatory transmission power for the ↵Hong Wu
calucation of the local maximum transmit power The local maximum transmit power is the maximum power a wireless device allowed to transmit. If Power Constraint is presented, the local maximum power equals to the maximum allowed power defined in regulatory domain minus power constraint. The maximum transmit power is maximum power a wireless device capable of transmitting, and should be used in Power Capability element (7.3.2.16 IEEE802.11 2007). The transmit power from a wireless device should not greater than the local maximum transmit power. The maximum transmit power was not calculated correctly in the current Linux wireless/mac80211 when Power Constraint is presented. Signed-off-by: Hong Wu <hong.wu@dspg.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2011-12-16cfg80211: allow following country IE power for custom regdom cardsLuis R. Rodriguez
By definition WIPHY_FLAG_STRICT_REGULATORY was intended to allow the wiphy to adjust itself to the country IE power information if the card had no regulatory data but we had no way to tell cfg80211 that if the card also had its own custom regulatory domain (these are typically custom world regulatory domains) that we want to follow the country IE's noted values for power for each channel. We add support for this and document it. This is not a critical fix but a performance optimization for cards with custom regulatory domains that associate to an AP with sends out country IEs with a higher EIRP than the one on the custom regulatory domain. In practice the only driver affected right now are the Atheros drivers as they are the only drivers using both WIPHY_FLAG_STRICT_REGULATORY and WIPHY_FLAG_CUSTOM_REGULATORY -- used on cards that have an Atheros world regulatory domain. Cards that have been programmed to follow a country specifically will not follow the country IE power. So although not a stable fix distributions should consider cherry picking this.

2011-12-15cfg80211: validate nl80211 station handling betterJohannes Berg
The nl80211 station handling code is a bit messy and doesn't do a lot of validation. It seems like this could be an issue for drivers that don't use mac80211 to validate everything. As cfg80211 doesn't keep station state, move the validation of allowing supported_rates to change for TDLS only in station mode to mac80211.

2011-12-13cfg80211: Fix race in bss timeoutVasanthakumar Thiagarajan
It is quite possible to run into a race in bss timeout where the drivers see the bss entry just before notifying cfg80211 of a roaming event but it got timed out by the time rdev->event_work got scehduled from cfg80211_wq. This would result in the following WARN-ON() along with the failure to notify the user space of the roaming. The other situation which is happening with ath6kl that runs into issue is when the driver reports roam to same AP event where the AP bss entry already got expired. To fix this, move cfg80211_get_bss() from __cfg80211_roamed() to cfg80211_roamed().

2011-11-21wireless: Support ht-capabilities over-rides.Ben Greear
This allows users to disable features such as HT, HT40, and to modify the MCS, AMPDU, and AMSDU settings for drivers that support it. The MCS, AMPDU, and AMSDU features that may be disabled are are reported in the phy-info netlink message as a mask. Attemping to disable features that are not supported will take no affect, but will not return errors. This is to aid backwards compatibility in user-space apps that may not be clever enough to deal with parsing the the capabilities mask. This patch only enables the infrastructure.

So this patch helps to send P2P probe request/probe response/action frames being sent at non CCK rate in 2GHz without disabling 11b rates. This attribute is used with NL80211_CMD_TRIGGER_SCAN and NL80211_CMD_FRAME commands to disable CCK rate for management frame transmission.

2011-09-13cfg80211/nl80211: Indicate roaming feature capability to userspace.Vivek Natarajan
When the rssi of the current AP drops, both wpa_supplicant and the firmware may do a background scan to find a better AP and try to associate. Since firmware based roaming is faster, inform wpa_supplicant to avoid roaming and let the firmware decide to roam if necessary. For fullmac drivers like ath6kl, it is just enough to provide the ESSID and the firmware will decide on the BSSID. Since it is not possible to do pre-auth during roaming for fullmac drivers, the wpa_supplicant needs to completely disconnect with the old AP and reconnect with the new AP. This consumes lot of time and it is better to leave the roaming decision to the firmware. Signed-off-by: Vivek Natarajan <nataraja@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2011-08-12nl80211/cfg80211: Add extra IE configuration to AP mode setupJouni Malinen
The NL80211_CMD_NEW_BEACON command is, in practice, requesting AP mode operations to be started. Add new attributes to provide extra IEs (e.g., WPS IE, P2P IE) for drivers that build Beacon, Probe Response, and (Re)Association Response frames internally (likely in firmware).

2011-08-12nl80211/cfg80211: Add crypto settings into NEW_BEACONJouni Malinen
This removes need from drivers to parse the beacon tail/head data to figure out what crypto settings are to be used in AP mode in case the Beacon and Probe Response frames are fully constructed in the driver/firmware.

2011-08-12nl80211/cfg80211: Allow SSID to be specified in new beacon commandJouni Malinen
This makes it easier for drivers that generate Beacon and Probe Response frames internally (in firmware most likely) in AP mode. Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <jouni@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

Moving the parsing logic for retrieving the information elements stored in management frames, e.g. beacons or probe responses, and making it available to other cfg80211 drivers.

2011-08-11nl80211/cfg80211: Make addition of new sinfo fields saferJouni Malinen
Add a comment pointing out the use of enum station_info_flags for all new struct station_info fields. In addition, memset the sinfo buffer to zero before use on all paths in the current tree to avoid leaving uninitialized pointers in the data.

2011-08-11cfg80211: fix a crash in nl80211_send_stationFelix Fietkau
mac80211 leaves sinfo->assoc_req_ies uninitialized, causing a random pointer memory access in nl80211_send_station. Instead of checking if the pointer is null, use sinfo->filled, like the rest of the fields. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
