* [MAC80211]: add "invalid" interface typeJohannes Berg2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | Since I cannot convince the lazy driver authors (hello Michael) to stop (ab)using the MGMT interface type internally in their drivers, this patch introduces a new _INVALID type especially for their use and changes all affected drivers to use it.

* [ZD1211RW]: Removed zd_util.c and zd_util.hUlrich Kunitz2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | The kernel now provides a generic hexdump implementation should we need it again, so we can remove it from zd1211rw. After removing that, only one single-user function is left in zd_util. Move that to zd_mac and remove zd_util.

* [HOSTAP]: set netdev type before registering AP interfaceDaniel Drake2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As detailed at https://bugs.gentoo.org/159646 hostap with hostapd confuses udev by presenting 2 interfaces with the same MAC address. Also, at the time of detection, the 'type' attribute is 1, identical to other hostap interfaces. The AP interface is supposed to have type ARPHRD_IEEE80211 (801), but this is not set until after registration. Setting it before register_netdev() is called allows us to avoid this confusion. We can do this by propogating the HOSTAP_INTERFACE type through to hostap_setup_dev(). Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

* [PATCH] rt2x00: Stop link tuning when radio is downIvo van Doorn2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | As pointed out by Modestas Vainius the link tuner could continue working while the radio is already down. This because at the start of disable_radio the ENABLED_RADIO flag is cleared and causes the toggle_rx to skip the stop_link_tuner() call. This will add a check to the start of the link tuner which will automatically stop the link tuner when the radio is disabled. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

* [PATCH] mac80211: revamp interface and filter configurationJohannes Berg2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Drivers are currently supposed to keep track of monitor interfaces if they allow so-called "hard" monitor, and they are also supposed to keep track of multicast etc. This patch changes that, replaces the set_multicast_list() callback with a new configure_filter() callback that takes filter flags (FIF_*) instead of interface flags (IFF_*). For a driver, this means it should open the filter as much as necessary to get all frames requested by the filter flags. Accordingly, the filter flags are named "positively", e.g. FIF_ALLMULTI. Multicast filtering is a bit special in that drivers that have no multicast address filters need to allow multicast frames through when either the FIF_ALLMULTI flag is set or when the mc_count value is positive. At the same time, drivers are no longer notified about monitor interfaces at all, this means they now need to implement the start() and stop() callbacks and the new change_filter_flags() callback. Also, the start()/stop() ordering changed, start() is now called *before* any add_interface() as it really should be, and stop() after any remove_interface(). The patch also changes the behaviour of setting the bssid to multicast for scanning when IEEE80211_HW_NO_PROBE_FILTERING is set; the IEEE80211_HW_NO_PROBE_FILTERING flag is removed and the filter flag FIF_BCN_PRBRESP_PROMISC introduced. This is a lot more efficient for hardware like b43 that supports it and other hardware can still set the BSSID to all-ones.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change cleans up the radio-related messages in several ways. (1) The state of the rfkill switch is assumed to be on, rather than tested. Now, any user without such a switch will not see any messages. For devices with such a switch, a message will be logged only if the initial state is off, or if the switch is toggled. (2) The routine for testing the switch state is no longer inline. (3) The LED handling routine is simplified. (4) The "Radio turned off" message that has confused some users has been changed to "Radio initialized". This patch is patterned after a similar change to b43 by Michael Buesch.
