* [MAC80211]: kill key_mgmt, use key_management_enabledJohannes Berg2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | The key_mgmt variable for STA interfaces doesn't seem well-defined nor do we actually use the values other than "NONE", so change it to be named better.

* [MAC80211]: implement ERP info change notificationsDaniel Drake2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | zd1211rw and bcm43xx are interested in being notified when ERP IE conditions change, so that they can reprogram a register which affects how control frames are transmitted. This patch adds an interface similar to the one that can be found in softmac. Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: Jiri Benc <jbenc@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: John W.

* [MAC80211]: improved short preamble handlingDaniel Drake2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Similarly to CTS protection, whether short preambles are used for 802.11b transmissions should be a per-subif setting, not device global. For STAs, this patch makes short preamble handling automatic based on the ERP IE. For APs, hostapd still uses the prism ioctls, but the write ioctl has been restricted to AP-only subifs. ieee80211_txrx_data.short_preamble (an unused field) was removed. Unfortunately, some API changes were required for the following functions: - ieee80211_generic_frame_duration - ieee80211_rts_duration - ieee80211_ctstoself_duration - ieee80211_rts_get - ieee80211_ctstoself_get Affected drivers were updated accordingly.

* [MAC80211]: improve locking of sta_info related structuresMichael Wu2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | The sta_info code has some awkward locking which prevents some driver callbacks from being allowed to sleep. This patch makes the locking more focused so code that calls driver callbacks are allowed to sleep. It also converts sta_lock to a rwlock.

* [PATCH] mac80211: regulatory domain cleanupDaniel Drake2007-07-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, a function misnamed ieee80211_init_client() is used to handle regulatory domain control. It is called from ieee80211_register_hwmode(), which typically runs 2 or 3 times (802.11a/b/g), but each time it iterates over all the modes. This patch cleans this up and removes the confusion: ieee80211_init_client was effectively renamed to ieee80211_set_default_regdomain and is now run on a per-mode basis (doesn't have to deal with netdevs). I also moved the regdomain handling code into its own file and added some documentation. Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org> Acked-by: Jiri Benc <jbenc@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: John W.

* [PATCH] mac80211: improved 802.11g CTS protectionDaniel Drake2007-07-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, CTS protection is partially implemented twice: 1. via prism2 ioctls, only used by hostapd 2. via STA beacon parsing, recorded in sta.use_protection but never used (other than printed in debugfs) Protection control should be implemented on a per-subif basis. For example, a single physical device may be running a soft AP on one channel, and a STA on another. The AP interface should use protection based on what hostapd told it, and the STA interface should use protection based on beacon parsing. These should operate independantly: one subif using protection should not influence the other. To implement this, I moved the use_protection flag into ieee80211_sub_if_data and removed the device-global cts_protect_erp_frames flag. I also made the PRISM2_PARAM_CTS_PROTECT_ERP_FRAMES write operation only available for AP interfaces, to avoid any possibility of the user messing with the behaviour of a STA.

* [PATCH] mac80211: ERP IE handling improvementsDaniel Drake2007-07-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The "protection needed" flag is currently parsed out of the ERP IE in beacons. This patch allows the ERP IE to be available at assocation time and causes the appropriate actions to be performed earlier. It is slightly complicated by the fact that most APs don't include the ERP IE in association responses. To work around this, we store ERP values in the ieee80211_sta_bss structure. Also added some WLAN_ERP defines for use by upcoming patches. Signed-off-by: Jiri Benc <jbenc@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

| | | | | | | | | | These aren't used anywhere (hostapd, wpa_supplicant) and until we have a proper interface to the rate control algorithms they don't make much sense either since e.g. rc80211_lowest won't honour them.
