* carl9170: advertise interface combinationsChristian Lamparter2011-05-16
| | | | | | | | | In order to provide multiple interfaces for a single device, the driver will be required to advertise all possible interface configurations to the stack. Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
* carl9170: utilize fw seq counter for mgmt/non-QoS data framesChristian Lamparter2011-01-27
| | | | | | | | | | "mac80211 will properly assign sequence numbers to QoS-data frames but cannot do so correctly for non-QoS-data and management frames because beacons need them from that counter as well and mac80211 cannot guarantee proper sequencing."

* ath9k/carl9170: advertise P2PJohannes Berg2010-11-29
| | | | | | | | | | With some upcoming changes we'd like to use the interface types for P2P capability tests. Enable them now so that when we add those tests in wpa_supplicant, nothing will break.

* carl9170: support firmware-based rx filterChristian Lamparter2010-10-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The hardware rx-filter was essentially disabled, because of a serve, yet unidentifiable problem with iwlagn. Due to these circumstances the driver and mac80211 were left with the job of filtering. This is very unfortunate and has proven to be expensive in terms of latency, memory and load. Therefore the new 1.8.8.3 firmware introduces a flexible filtering infrastructure which allows the driver to offload some of the checks (FCS & PLCP crc check, RA match, control frame filter, etc...) whenever possible. Note: This patch also includes all changes to the shared headers files since the inclusion. Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
