* wireless: Print wiphy name in sysfs.Ben Greear2010-10-12
| | | | | | | | | | The index cannot be used to reliably reconstruct a phy name, so explicitly add the phy name to sysfs so that scripts can figure out the parent phy device for a particular wireless interface.

* cfg80211: support sysfs namespacesJohannes Berg2010-08-16
| | | | | | | | | | | Enable using network namespaces with wireless devices even when sysfs is enabled using the same infrastructure that was built for netdevs. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Acked-by: "Eric W.

* cfg80211: export multiple MAC addresses in sysfsJohannes Berg2010-01-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a device has multiple MAC addresses, userspace will need to know about that. Similarly, if it allows the MAC addresses to vary by a bitmask. If a driver exports multiple addresses, it is assumed that it will be able to deal with that many different addresses, which need not necessarily match the ones programmed into the device; if a mask is set then the device should deal addresses within that mask based on an arbitrary "base address". To test it all and show how it is used, add support to hwsim even though it can't actually deal with addresses different from the default.

* cfg80211: rename cfg80211_registered_device's idx to wiphy_idxLuis R. Rodriguez2009-02-27

* cfg80211: age scan results on resumeDan Williams2009-02-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | Scanned BSS entries are timestamped with jiffies, which doesn't increment across suspend and hibernate. On resume, every BSS in the scan list looks like it was scanned within the last 10 seconds, irregardless of how long the machine was actually asleep. Age scan results on resume with the time spent during sleep so userspace has a clue how old they really are. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dcbw@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

* cfg80211: add PM hooksJohannes Berg2009-01-29
| | | | | | | | | | | This should help implement suspend/resume in mac80211, these hooks will be run before the device is suspended and after it resumes. Therefore, they can touch the hardware as much as they want to. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: Bob Copeland <me@bobcopeland.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

* wireless: clean up sysfs code using %pMJohannes Berg2008-11-21
| | | | | | | | | | Remove converting the MAC address to a string by a direct byte conversion and use %pM instead, since the code is now boilerplate use a macro to define the show functions, and also use the shorter __ATTR_RO macro to define the attributes.

* Driver core: change add_uevent_var to use a structKay Sievers2007-10-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This changes the uevent buffer functions to use a struct instead of a long list of parameters. It does no longer require the caller to do the proper buffer termination and size accounting, which is currently wrong in some places. It fixes a known bug where parts of the uevent environment are overwritten because of wrong index calculations. Many thanks to Mathieu Desnoyers for finding bugs and improving the error handling.

* [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.
