2009-01-29airo: re-arrange WPA capability checksDan Williams
The capability register has to be read for other (upcoming) stuff, so fold the WPA test function back into _init_airo_card() and move the netdevice registration stuff above it so that the netdevice has a name by the time the card's capabilities are printed out.

2009-01-29iwlwifi: Remove IWL3945_DEBUGSamuel Ortiz
IWL3945_DEBUG is pointless and obsolete. We already have an IWLWIFI_DEBUG symbol, that needs to be set if we actually want to get 3945 debug (see iwl-debug.h).

By adding the eeprom ops to the 3945 code, we can now use the iwlcore eeprom routines (defined in iwl-eeprom.c).

By adding an additional hw_params (tfd_size) and a new iwl_lib ops (txq_init), we can now use the iwlcore TX queue management routines. We had to add a new hw_params because we need to allocate the right DMA buffer for TFDs, and those have a different sizes depending if you're on 3945 or agn.

2009-01-29iwlwifi: make iwl_tx_queue->tfds void*Samuel Ortiz

2009-01-29b43: Automatically probe for opensource firmwareMichael Buesch
First probe for proprietary firmware and then probe for opensource firmware. This way around it's a win-win situation. 1) If proprietary fw is available, it will work. 2) If opensource firmware is available, but no proprietary (Distros can only ship open fw) it might work. 3) If both open and proprietary are available, it will work, because it selects the proprietary. We currently don't prefer the open fw in this case, because it doesn't work on all devices. It would introduce a regression otherwise. The remaining FIXMEs in this patch are harmless, because they only matter on multiband devices, which are not implemented yet anyway.

2009-01-29rtl8187: Fix driver to return TX retry info for RTL8187LLarry Finger
Current code for the RTL8187 is not returning valid retry information, thus the rate-setting mechanism is not functioning. As a further complication, this info is only obtained by reading a register, which cannot be read while in interrupt context. This patch implements the TX status return to mac80211 through the use of a work queue. One additional problem is that the driver currently enables the rate fallback mechanism of the device, which conflicts with the mac80211 rate-setting algorithm. This version of the patch disables rate fallback.

2009-01-29libertas: fix CF firmware loading for some cardsDan Williams
if_cs_poll_while_fw_download() returned the number of iterations remaining on success, which in turn got returned as the value from if_cs_prog_real() and if_cs_prog_helper(). But since if_cs_probe() interprets non-zero return values from firmware load functions as an error, this sometimes caused spurious firmware load failures.

2009-01-29ath9k: simplify regulatory codeLuis R. Rodriguez
Now that cfg80211 has its own regulatory infrastructure we can condense ath9k's regulatory code considerably. We only keep data we need to provide our own regulatory_hint(), reg_notifier() and information necessary for calibration. Atheros hardware supports 12 world regulatory domains, since these are custom we apply them through the the new wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory(). Although we have 12 we can consolidate these into 5 structures based on frequency and apply a different set of flags that differentiate them on a case by case basis through the reg_notifier(). If CRDA is not found our own custom world regulatory domain is applied, this is identical to cfg80211's except we enable passive scan on most frequencies. Signed-off-by: Luis R.

2009-01-29mac80211: allow mac80211 drivers to get to struct ieee80211_hw from wiphyLuis R. Rodriguez
If a driver is given a wiphy and it wants to get to its private mac80211 driver area it can use wiphy_to_ieee80211_hw() to get first to its ieee80211_hw and then access the private structure via hw->priv. The wiphy_priv() is already being used internally by mac80211 and drivers should not use this. This can be helpful in a drivers reg_notifier(). Signed-off-by: Luis R.

2009-01-29cfg80211: Allow for strict regulatory settingsLuis R. Rodriguez
This allows drivers to request strict regulatory settings to be applied to its devices. This is desirable for devices where proper calibration and compliance can only be gauranteed for for the device's programmed regulatory domain. Regulatory domain settings will be ignored until the device's own regulatory domain is properly configured. If no regulatory domain is received only the world regulatory domain will be applied -- if OLD_REG (default to "US") is not enabled. If OLD_REG behaviour is not acceptable to drivers they must update their wiphy with a custom reuglatory prior to wiphy registration. Signed-off-by: Luis R.

2009-01-29cfg80211: pass more detailed regulatory request information on reg_notifier()Luis R. Rodriguez
Drivers may need more information than just who set the last regulatory domain, as such lets just pass the last regulatory_request receipt. To do this we need to move out to headers struct regulatory_request, and enum environment_cap. While at it lets add documentation for enum environment_cap. Signed-off-by: Luis R.

2009-01-29cfg80211: move check for ignore_reg_update() on wiphy_update_regulatory()Luis R. Rodriguez
This ensures that the initial REGDOM_SET_BY_CORE upon wiphy registration respects the wiphy->custom_regulatory setting. Without this and if OLD_REG is disabled (which will be default soon as we remove it) the wiphy->custom_regulatory is simply ignored. Signed-off-by: Luis R.

2009-01-29cfg80211: ignore consecutive equal regulatory hintsLuis R. Rodriguez
We ignore regulatory hints for the same alpha2 if we already have processed the same alpha2 on the current regulatory domain.
