| * [PATCH] ipw2200: Add IEEE80211_RADIOTAP_TSFT for promiscuous modeZhu Yi2006-12-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The ipw2200 BSS firmware passes on the TSF information within ipw_rx_frame, but monitor firmware doesn't. I add back the IEEE80211_RADIOTAP_TSFT flags so that we can get the MAC timestamp if we use the rtap interface. We will see the MAC timestamp equals to zero if we capture the packets with a monitor mode interface. But this is the expected behaviour.

* IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlersDavid Howells2006-10-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the Linux kernel. The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path (ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()). Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception handling. Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing. I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers. I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile with minimal configurations. This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy. Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one: struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs); And put the old one back at the end: set_irq_regs(old_regs); Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ(). In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary: - update_process_times(user_mode(regs)); - profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs); + update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs())); + profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING); I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself, except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode(). Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers: (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in the input_dev struct. (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs pointer or not. (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type irq_handler_t.

| * [PATCH] ipw2200: enable wireless extension passive scanZhu Yi2006-08-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch enables the ipw2200 driver to support passive scanning as offered by the wireless extensions. For this, I enhanced the ipw_wx_set_scan function in such a way that it differentiates between a passive and an active scan request. Additionally, I added a new function called ipw_request_passive_scan that is similiar to the ipw_request_scan function to perform passive scans. Last but not least, I added a field (in fact it is a work_struct struct) called request_passive_scan to the ipw_priv struct.

| * [PATCH] ipw2200: SIOCGIWFREQ ioctl returns frequency rather than channelZhu Yi2006-08-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The SIOCGIWFREQ ioctl fills the request structure's freq field by setting the exponent to 0 and the mantissa to the current channel number. The iwconfig tool works around this behaviour by looking up the frequency from the channel table if a frequency below 1kHz is returned, other tools (e.g. kwlaninfo) don't. According to the comment in the iwconfig source the driver is supposed to return the frequency, not the channel number.

* [PATCH] ipw2200: Enable rtap interface for RF promiscuous mode while associatedZhu Yi2006-04-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With this patch, a new promiscuous mode is enabled. If the module is loaded with the rtap_iface=1 module parameter, two interfaces will be created (instead of just one). The second interface is prefixed 'rtap' and provides received 802.11 frames on the current channel to user space in a radiotap header format. Example usage: % modprobe ipw2200 rtap_iface=1 % iwconfig eth1 essid MyNetwork % dhcpcd eth1 % tcpdump -i rtap0 If you do not specify 'rtap_iface=1' then the rtap interface will not be created and you will need to turn it on via: % echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ipw2200/*/rtap_iface You can filter out what type of information is passed to user space via the rtap_filter sysfs entry. Currently you can tell the driver to transmit just the headers (which will provide the RADIOTAP and IEEE 802.11 header but not the payload), to filter based on frame control type (Management, Control, or Data), and whether to report transmitted frames, received frames, or both. The transmit frame reporting is based on a patch by Stefan Rompf. Filters can be get and set via a sysfs interface. For example, set the filter to only send headers (0x7), don't report Tx'd frames (0x10), and don't report data frames (0x100): % echo 0x117 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ipw2200/*/rtap_filter All your packets are belong to us: % tethereal -n -i rtap0 Signed-off-by: James Ketrenos <jketreno@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Zhu Yi <yi.zhu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
