* b43legacy: drop packets we are not able to encryptStefano Brivio2008-02-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We must drop any packets we are not able to encrypt. We must not send them unencrypted or with an all-zero-key (which basically is the same as unencrypted, from a security point of view). This might only trigger shortly after resume before mac80211 reassociated and reconfigured the keys. It is safe to drop these packets, as the association they belong to is not guaranteed anymore anyway. This is a security fix in the sense that it prevents information leakage. This patch by Michael Buesch has been ported to b43legacy. Cc: Michael Buesch <mb@bu3sch.de> Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <stefano.brivio@polimi.it> Signed-off-by: John W.

* mac80211: dont use interface indices in driversJohannes Berg2008-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch gets rid of the if_id stuff where possible in favour of a new per-virtual-interface structure "struct ieee80211_vif". This structure is located at the end of the per-interface structure and contains a variable length driver-use data area. This has two advantages: * removes the need to look up interfaces by if_id, this is better for working with network namespaces and performance * allows drivers to store and retrieve per-interface data without having to allocate own lists/hash tables Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

* wireless: make drivers include the TSF RX flag where appropriateJohannes Berg2008-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | These drivers pass full mactime information to the stack, make them indicate this via the new RX_FLAG_TSFT to get mac80211 to show this information in monitor mode.
