* iwlwifi: don't access mac80211's AMPDU state machineJohannes Berg2008-09-15
| | | | | | | | | | There really is no need, at worst ieee80211_start_tx_ba_session will log a message when debugging is enabled, and poking such internals of mac80211 definitely doesn't belong into an RC algorithm.

* mac80211: share sta_info->ht_infoJohannes Berg2008-09-15

* mac80211: move txrate_idx into RC algorithmsJohannes Berg2008-09-15
| | | | | | | | | | The sta_info->txrate_idx member isn't used by all RC algorithms in the way it was intended to be used, move it into those that require it (only PID) and keep track in the core code of which rate was last used for reporting to userspace and the mesh MLME.

* mac80211 hwsim: verify sta pointersJohannes Berg2008-09-15
| | | | | | | | | In analogy with the previous patch to make mac80211-hwsim verify that the virtual interface pointers are correct, this makes it very that it knows about all station structs.

* mac80211: share STA information with driverJohannes Berg2008-09-15
| | | | | | | | | | | This patch changes mac80211 to share some more data about stations with drivers.

* mac80211 hwsim: verify vif pointersJohannes Berg2008-09-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | mac80211-hwsim is a debugging tool for mac80211, and as such it can very well verify that mac80211 isn't passing junk to drivers, especially the vif pointer is prone to this because for vlan interfaces the AP interface pointer needs to be passed. This makes mac80211-hwsim add a magic cookie to the private vif area and verify it whenever an operation is called that gets a vif pointer.

* libertas: remove unused generic RESET commandDan Williams2008-09-15
| | | | | | | | | | The generic reset command is unused.

* iwlwifi: fix searching for best rate in new search columnGuy Cohen2008-09-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a bug in Rate Scaling. When moving from SISO to MIMO we need to choose the lowest higher rate, instead of choosing the highest in MIMO. No doing this can lead to a high packet loss in the highest rate in MIMO, leading not to move MIMO although lower in MIMO could give a better TPT.

Remove driver specific RFKILL configuration options and make the rt2x00lib version depend on CONFIG_RFKILL and defaulting to 'y' to make sure it will always be enabled when RFKILL was enabled.

* iwlwifi: use the results from disconnected antenna algorithmGrumbach, Emmanuel2008-09-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch makes usage of the results from disconnected antenna alg to know how many antennas are connected. It also synchronizes between the chain noise alg and the W/A that disables power management during association. All the antennas must be enables during the chain noise algorithm. Hence, power management is restored only after the completion of the algorithm. In the future, we will need to update the AP that we don't support MIMO if there is only one antenna connected. We also need to update the rate scaling algorithm.
