* mac80211: change number of pre-assoc scansRon Rindjunsky2008-08-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes noticed problem in noisy environments of 50+ APs that scan fails to find the requested AP on first try, which leads to connection refusal. second scan has empirically proven to fix this problem in almost all cases.

* rt2x00: Add module parameter to disable HW cryptoIvo van Doorn2008-08-22
| | | | | | | | | | Add a module parameter to rt61 and rt73 to disable HW crypto. The option should only be checked when determining if the SUPPORT_HW_CRYPTO flag should be set or not. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
* rt2x00: Move lna_gain calculation to config() callbackIvo van Doorn2008-08-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | We can optimize lna calculation in IRQ context by calculating most of the value during the config() callback when most of the value is actually influenced. This will be required later by rt2800pci and rt2800usb as well, since they need the lna_gain value during config(). Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

* rt2x00: Implement HW encryptionIvo van Doorn2008-08-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Various rt2x00 devices support hardware encryption. Most of them require the IV/EIV to be generated by mac80211, but require it to be provided seperately instead of within the frame itself. This means that rt2x00lib should extract the data from the frame and place it in the frame descriptor. During RX the IV/EIV is provided in the descriptor by the hardware which means that it should be inserted into the frame by rt2x00lib.

* replace net_device arguments with ieee80211_{local,sub_if_data} as appropriateJasper Bryant-Greene2008-08-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch replaces net_device arguments to mac80211 internal functions with ieee80211_{local,sub_if_data} as appropriate. It also does the same for many 802.11s mesh functions, and changes the mesh path table to be indexed on sub_if_data rather than net_device. If the mesh part needs to be a separate patch let me know, but since mesh uses a lot of mac80211 functions which were being converted anyway, the changes go hand-in-hand somewhat. This patch probably does not convert all the functions which could be converted, but it is a large chunk and followup patches will be provided.

* rfkill: introduce RFKILL_STATE_MAXHenrique de Moraes Holschuh2008-08-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | While it is interesting to not add last-enum-markers because it allows gcc to warn us of switch() statements missing a valid state, we really should be handling memory corruption on a rfkill state with default clauses, anyway. So add RFKILL_STATE_MAX and use it where applicable. It makes for safer code in the long run.

* rfkill: add __must_check annotationsHenrique de Moraes Holschuh2008-08-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | rfkill is not a small, mere detail in wireless support. Once it starts supporting rfkill and users start counting on that support, a wireless device is at risk of operating in dangerous conditions should rfkill support fail to properly activate. Therefore, add the required __must_check annotations on some key functions of the rfkill API, for which the wireless drivers absolutely MUST handle the failure mode safely in order to avoid a potentially dangerous situation where the wireless transmitter is left enabled when the user don't want it to.

* rfkill: add default global states (v2)Henrique de Moraes Holschuh2008-08-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a second set of global states, "rfkill_default_states", to track the state that will be used when the first rfkill class of a given type is registered, and also to save "undo" information when rfkill_epo is called. Add a new exported function, rfkill_set_default(), which can be used by platform drivers to restore radio state saved by the platform across reboots or shutdown. Also, fix rfkill_epo to properly update rfkill_states, but still preserve a copy of the state so that we can undo the effect of rfkill_epo later if we want to. Add rfkill_restore_states() to restore rfkill_states from the copy. Signed-off-by: Henrique de Moraes Holschuh <hmh@hmh.eng.br> Acked-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
