* iwlwifi: fix rs_get_rate WARN_ON()Abbas, Mohamed2009-01-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In ieee80211_sta structure there is u64 supp_rates[IEEE80211_NUM_BANDS] this is filled with all support rate from assoc_resp. If we associate with G-band AP only supp_rates of G-band will be set the other band supp_rates will be set to 0. If the user type this command this will cause mac80211 to set to new channel, mac80211 does not disassociate in setting new channel, so the active band is now A-band. then in handling the new essid mac80211 will kick in the assoc steps which involve sending disassociation frame. in this mac80211 will WARN_ON sta->supp_rates[A_BAND] == 0.

* iwl3945: Fix rate scale for B-mode connectionAbbas, Mohamed2008-12-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch make sure we use only CCK rate for B only network. For 3945 driver, it sets REPLY_RATE_SCALE command every time we connect to a new network. In this command we set for every rate the number of try and next rate. The problem mac80211 reports same mode for both B and G mode as IEEE80211_BAND_2GHZ which will cause using invalid rate other than CCK in B only network. THis patch on association will examine sta valid rate on association, if no OFDM rate in valid available rates it considers it as B only mode so we can set REPLY_RATE_SCALE command with valid B only network and only choose CCK rate in rate scaling.

* mac80211: remove rate_control_clearJohannes Berg2008-10-31
| | | | | | | | | | "Clearing" the rate control algorithm is pointless, none of the algorithms actually uses this operation and it's not even invoked properly for all channel switching. Also, there's no need to since rate control algorithms work per station. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
* mac80211/drivers: rewrite the rate control APIJohannes Berg2008-10-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | So after the previous changes we were still unhappy with how convoluted the API is and decided to make things simpler for everybody. This completely changes the rate control API, now taking into account 802.11n with MCS rates and more control, most drivers don't support that though.

* mac80211: clean up rate control APIJohannes Berg2008-09-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Long awaited, hard work. This patch totally cleans up the rate control API to remove the requirement to include internal headers outside of net/mac80211/. There's one internal use in the PID algorithm left for mesh networking, we'll have to figure out a way to clean that one up and decide how to do the peer link evaluation, possibly independent of the rate control algorithm or via new API. Additionally, ath9k is left using the cross-inclusion hack for now, we will add new API where necessary to make this work properly, but right now I'm not expert enough to do it. It's still off better than before. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

* mac80211: move TX info into skb->cbJohannes Berg2008-05-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch converts mac80211 and all drivers to have transmit information and status in skb->cb rather than allocating extra memory for it and copying all the data around. To make it fit, a union is used where only data that is necessary for all steps is kept outside of the union. A number of fixes were done by Ivo, as well as the rt2x00 part of this patch.

* mac80211: use rate index in TX controlJohannes Berg2008-05-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch modifies struct ieee80211_tx_control to give band info and the rate index (instead of rate pointers) to drivers. This mostly serves to reduce the TX control structure size to make it fit into skb->cb so that the fragmentation code can put it there and we can think about passing it to drivers that way in the future.

* mac80211: RCU-ify STA info structure accessJohannes Berg2008-03-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This makes access to the STA hash table/list use RCU to protect against freeing of items. However, it's not a true RCU, the copy step is missing: whenever somebody changes a STA item it is simply updated. This is an existing race condition that is now somewhat understandable. This patch also fixes the race key freeing vs. STA destruction by making sure that sta_info_destroy() is always called under RTNL and frees the key.

* cfg80211 API for channels/bitrates, mac80211 and driver conversionJohannes Berg2008-02-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch creates new cfg80211 wiphy API for channel and bitrate registration and converts mac80211 and drivers to the new API. The old mac80211 API is completely ripped out. All drivers (except ath5k) are updated to the new API, in many cases I expect that optimisations can be done. Along with the regulatory code I've also ripped out the IEEE80211_HW_DEFAULT_REG_DOMAIN_CONFIGURED flag, I believe it to be unnecessary if the hardware simply gives us whatever channels it wants to support and we then enable/disable them as required, which is pretty much required for travelling. Additionally, the patch adds proper "basic" rate handling for STA mode interface, AP mode interface will have to have new API added to allow userspace to set the basic rate set, currently it'll be empty... However, the basic rate handling will need to be moved to the BSS conf stuff. I do expect there to be bugs in this, especially wrt. transmit power handling where I'm basically clueless about how it should work.
