All its members (vif, mac_addr, type) are now available in the vif struct directly, so we can pass that instead of the conf struct.

2009-12-28b43: Allow PIO mode to be selected at module loadLarry Finger
If userencounter the "Fatal DMA Problem" with a BCM43XX device, and still wish to use b43 as the driver, their only option is to rebuild the kernel with CONFIG_B43_FORCE_PIO. This patch removes this option and allows PIO mode to be selected with a load-time parameter for the module. Note that the configuration variable CONFIG_B43_PIO is also removed. Once the DMA problem with the BCM4312 devices is solved, this patch will likely be reverted.

2009-12-10b43: Remove reset after fatal DMA errorLarry Finger

2009-11-10b43: work around a locking issue in ->set_tim()Felix Fietkau
ops->set_tim() must be atomic, so b43 trying to acquire a mutex leads to a kernel crash. This patch trades an easy to trigger crash in AP mode for an unlikely race condition. According to Michael, the real fix would be to allow set_tim() to sleep, since b43 is not the only driver that needs to sleep in all callbacks.

2009-10-30mac80211: remove RX_FLAG_RADIOTAPJohannes Berg
While there may be a case for a driver adding its own bits of radiotap information, none currently does. Also, drivers would have to copy the code to generate the radiotap bits that now mac80211 generates. If some driver in the future needs to add some driver-specific information I'd expect that to be in a radiotap vendor namespace and we can add a different way of passing such data up and having mac80211 include it. Additionally, rename IEEE80211_CONF_RADIOTAP to IEEE80211_CONF_MONITOR since it's still used by b43(legacy) to obtain per-frame timestamps. The purpose of this patch is to simplify the RX code in mac80211 to make it easier to add paged skb support. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

2009-10-27b43: Fix Bugzilla #14181 and the bug from the previous 'fix'Larry Finger
"b43: Fix PPC crash in rfkill polling on unload" fixed the bug reported in Bugzilla No. 14181; however, it introduced a new bug. Whenever the radio switch was turned off, it was necessary to unload and reload the driver for it to recognize the switch again. This patch fixes both the original bug in #14181 and the bug introduced by the previous patch. It must be stated, however, that if there is a BCM4306/3 with an rfkill switch (not yet proven), then the driver will need an unload/reload cycle to turn the device back on.

2009-08-20mac80211: allow configure_filter callback to sleepJohannes Berg
Over time, a whole bunch of drivers have come up with their own scheme to delay the configure_filter operation to a workqueue. To be able to simplify things, allow configure_filter to sleep, and add a new prepare_multicast callback that drivers that need the multicast address list implement. This new callback must be atomic, but most drivers either don't care or just calculate a hash which can be done atomically and then uploaded to the hardware non-atomically. A cursory look suggests that at76c50x-usb, ar9170, mwl8k (which is actually very broken now), rt2x00, wl1251, wl1271 and zd1211 should make use of this new capability.

2009-08-04mac80211: redefine usage of the mac80211 workqueueLuis R. Rodriguez
The mac80211 workqueue exists to enable mac80211 and drivers to queue their own work on a single threaded workqueue. mac80211 takes care to flush the workqueue during suspend but we never really had requirements on drivers for how they should use the workqueue in consideration for suspend. We extend mac80211 to document how the mac80211 workqueue should be used, how it should not be used and finally move raw access to the workqueue to mac80211 only. Drivers and mac80211 use helpers to queue work onto the mac80211 workqueue: * ieee80211_queue_work() * ieee80211_queue_delayed_work() These helpers will now warn if mac80211 already completed its suspend cycle and someone is trying to queue work. mac80211 flushes the mac80211 workqueue prior to suspend a few times, but we haven't taken the care to ensure drivers won't add more work after suspend. To help with this we add a warning when someone tries to add work and mac80211 already completed the suspend cycle. Drivers should ensure they cancel any work or delayed work in the mac80211 stop() callback. Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <lrodriguez@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
