* | Revert "mac80211: use a struct for bss->mesh_config"John W. Linville2008-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit 6c4711b4697d93424e4b1f76a9929ba844d714a5. That patch breaks mesh config comparison between beacons/probe reponses, so every beacon from a mesh network would be added as a new bss. Since the comparison has to be performed for every received beacon I believe it is best to save the mesh config in a format easy to compare, rather than do a bunch of unaligned accesses to compare field by field.

| * mac80211: trigger ieee80211_sta_work after opening interfaceJan Niehusmann2008-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ieee80211_sta_work is disabled while network interface is down. Therefore, if you configure wireless parameters before bringing the interface up, these configurations are not yet effective and association fails. A workaround from userspace is calling a command like 'iwconfig wlan0 ap any' after the interface is brought up. To fix this behaviour, trigger execution of ieee80211_sta_work from ieee80211_open when in STA or IBSS mode. Signed-off-by: Jan Niehusmann <jan@gondor.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

| * rc80211-pid: fix rate adjustmentStefano Brivio2008-03-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Merge rate_control_pid_shift_adjust() to rate_control_pid_adjust_rate() in order to make the learning algorithm aware of constraints on rates. Also add some comments and rename variables. This fixes a bug which prevented 802.11b/g non-AP STAs from working with 802.11b only AP STAs. This patch was originally destined for 2.6.26, and is being backported to fix a user reported problem in post-2.6.24 kernels.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the IBSS code tries to flush the STA list, it does so in an atomic context.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Calling sta_info_destroy() doesn't require RCU-synchronisation before-hand because it does that internally.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When STA structure insertion fails, it has been allocated but isn't really alive yet, it isn't reachable by any other code and also can't yet have much configured.

* | mac80211: filter scan results on unusable channelsJohannes Berg2008-03-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When you have an AP on channel 13, it will currently often enough be listed in scan results even when the regulatory domain restricts to channels 1-11. This is due to channel overlap. To avoid getting very strange failures, don't show such APs in the scan results. The failure mode will now go from "I can see the AP but not associate" to "I can't see the AP although I know it's there" which is easier to debug.

This is needed for drivers that don't do the rekeying by themselves (i.e. iwlwifi).
