| * | 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. The rt2x00 driver update was done by Ivo, thanks. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Having drivers start queues is just confusing, their ->start() callback can block and do whatever is necessary, so let mac80211 start queues and have drivers wake queues when necessary (to get packets flowing again right away.)

| * | mac80211: separate Tx and Rx MCS when configuring HTRon Rindjunsky2008-05-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch follows the 11n spec in separation between Tx and Rx MCS capabilities. Up until now, when configuring the HT possible set of Tx MCS only Rx MCS were considered, assuming they are the same as the Tx MCS. This patch fixed this by looking at low level driver Tx capabilities.

But, this one is called 1. from mesh_path_add() after an old hash is hidden and synchronize_rcu() is calld 2. mesh_pathtbl_unregister(), when the module is being unloaded and no devices exist to mess with this hash.

This in turn will allow drivers to check for that flag before reporting the TX status to mac80211. This is very usefull when frames (like beacons, RTS and CTS-to-self) should not be reported back to mac80211.

| * | mac80211: proper STA info lockingJohannes Berg2008-05-14

Many don't, but one of the especially bad ones is the 'flags' member that can currently be clobbered when RX and TX is being processed on different CPUs at the same time. Because having four spinlocks for different, mostly exclusive parts of a single structure is overkill, this patch also kills the ampdu and mesh plink spinlocks and uses just a single one for everything. Because none of the spinlocks are nested, this is safe. It remains to be seen whether or not we should make the sta flags use atomic bit operations instead, for now though this is a safe thing and using atomic operations instead will be very simple using the new static inline functions this patch introduces for accessing sta->flags. Since spin_lock_bh() is used with this lock, there shouldn't be any contention even if aggregation is enabled at around the same time as both requires frame transmission/reception which is in a bh context.

| * fix irq flags in mac80211 codeSteven Rostedt2008-05-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A file in the net/mac80211 directory uses "int" for flags. This can cause hard to find bugs on some architectures. This patch converts the flags to use "long" instead. This bug was discovered by doing an allyesconfig make on the -rt kernel where checks are done to ensure all flags are of size sizeof(long).

| * mac80211: Do not free net device after it is unregistered.Pavel Emelyanov2008-05-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The error path in ieee80211_register_hw() may call the unregister_netdev() and right after it - the free_netdev(), which is wrong, since the unregister releases the device itself. So the proposed fix is to NULL the local->mdev after unregister is done and check this before calling free_netdev(). I checked - no code uses the local->mdev after unregister in this error path (but even if some did this would be a BUG). Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In commit e100bb64bf7cdeae7f742a65ee1985649a7fd1b4 (mac80211: QoS related cleanups) I accidentally changed a variable from int to u16 causing a warning that a comparison for < 0 was always false. John thought this was a missing deletion of code and removed the warning by deleting the never executed branch of code in commit 3df5ee60f1ee559b1417397461891f8b483e8089 (wireless: fix warning introduced by "mac80211: QoS related cleanups") but the problem really was my mistake of using a u16 variable for the queue variable when that variable can also contain an error code. This patch restores the original code and variable type. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This * makes the queue number passed to drivers a u16 (as it will be with skb_get_queue_mapping) * removes the useless queue number defines * splits hw->queues into hw->queues/ampdu_queues * removes the debugfs files for per-queue counters * removes some dead QoS code * removes the beacon queue configuration for IBSS so that the drivers now never get a queue number bigger than (hw->queues + hw->ampdu_queues - 1) for tx and only in the range 0..hw->queues-1 for conf_tx.
