* build algorithms into the mac80211 moduleAdrian Bunk2008-06-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The old infrastructure was: - the default algorithm is built into mac80211 - other algorithms get into their own modules The implementation of this complicated scheme was horrible (just look at net/mac80211/Makefile), and anyone adding a new algorithm would most likely not get it right at his first attempt. This patch therefore builds all enabled algorithms into the mac80211 module. The user interface for the rate control algorithms changes as follows: - first the user can choose which algorithms to enable (currently only MAC80211_RC_PID is available) - if more than one algorithm is enabled (currently not possible since only one algorithm is present) the user then chooses the default one Note: - MAC80211_RC_PID is always enables for CONFIG_EMBEDDED=n Technical changes: - all selected algorithms get into the mac80211 module - net/mac80211/Makefile can now become much less complicated - support for rc80211_pid_algo.c being modular is no longer required - this includes unexporting mesh_plink_broken Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch makes the mac80211 workqueue freezable making it interact a bit better with system suspend and not try to ping the AP while the hardware is down. This doesn't really help with implementing proper suspend in any way but makes some bad things trigger less. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

Also, explicit references to IW_EV_LCP_LEN are replaced with iwe_stream_lcp_len(info). With a lot of help and bug fixes from Masakazu Mokuno. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| * Revert "mac80211: Use skb_header_cloned() on TX path."David S. Miller2008-06-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit 608961a5eca8d3c6bd07172febc27b5559408c5d. The problem is that the mac80211 stack not only needs to be able to muck with the link-level headers, it also might need to mangle all of the packet data if doing sw wireless encryption. This fixes kernel bugzilla #10903. Thanks to Didier Raboud (for the bugzilla report), Andrew Prince (for bisecting), Johannes Berg (for bringing this bisection analysis to my attention), and Ilpo (for trying to analyze this purely from the TCP side). In 2.6.27 we can take another stab at this, by using something like skb_cow_data() when the TX path of mac80211 ends up with a non-NULL tx->key. The ESP protocol code in the IPSEC stack can be used as a model for implementation. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* | mac80211: eliminate IBSS warning in rate_lowest_index()Vladimir Koutny2008-06-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In IBSS mode prior to join/creation of new IBSS it is possible that a frame from unknown station is received and an ibss_add_sta() is called. This will cause a warning in rate_lowest_index() since the list of supported rates of our station is not initialized yet. The fix is to add ibss stations with a rate we received that frame at; this single-element set will be extended later based on beacon data. Also there is no need to store stations from a foreign IBSS. Signed-off-by: Vladimir Koutny <vlado@ksp.sk> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
