* cfg80211: keep track of supported interface modesLuis R. Rodriguez2008-09-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is obviously good for userspace to know up front which interface modes a given piece of hardware might support (even if adding such an interface might fail later because of concurrency issues), so let's make cfg80211 aware of that. For good measure, disallow adding interfaces in all other modes so drivers don't forget to announce support for one mode when they add it.

* mac80211/cfg80211: HT capabilities for NEW_STAJouni Malinen2008-08-29
| | | | | | | | | Allow userspace (e.g., hostapd) to set HT capabilities for associated STAs. This is based on a patch from Zhu Yi <yi.zhu@intel.com> (only the NL80211_ATTR_HT_CAPABILITY for NEW_STA part is included here).

* mac80211/cfg80211: Add BSS configuration options for AP modeJouni Malinen2008-08-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | This change adds a new cfg80211 command, NL80211_CMD_SET_BSS, to allow AP mode BSS parameters to be changed from user space (e.g., hostapd). The drivers using mac80211 are expected to be modified with separate changes to use the new BSS info parameter for short slot time in the bss_info_changed() handler.

* mac80211: Let drivers have access to TKIP key offets for TX and RX MICLuis R. Rodriguez2008-06-27
| | | | | | | | | Some drivers may want to to use the TKIP key offsets for TX and RX MIC so lets move this out. Lets also clear up a bit how this is used internally in mac80211. Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <lrodriguez@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

* cfg80211/nl80211: implement station attribute retrievalJohannes Berg2008-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | After a station is added to the kernel's structures, userspace has to be able to retrieve statistics about that station, especially whether the station was idle and how much bytes were transferred to and from it. This adds the necessary code to nl80211. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [WIRELESS] cfg80211: New wireless config infrastructure.Johannes Berg2007-04-26
This patch creates the core cfg80211 code along with some sysfs bits. This is a stripped down version to allow mac80211 to function, but doesn't include any configuration yet except for creating and removing virtual interfaces. This patch includes the nl80211 header file but it only contains the interface types which the cfg80211 interface for creating virtual interfaces relies on.
