2008-12-19p54usb: bring first generation devices back to lifeChristian Lamparter
This patch fixes a serious regression (introduced by: "p54: fix memory management") that affected isl3886+net2280 usb devices operation. Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@web.de> Tested-by: Artur Skawina <art.08.09@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2008-12-19p54: remove free_on_tx parameterChristian Lamparter
This patch simplifies the tx code a bit and will be necessary for the upcoming stlc45xx<->p54 port. In detail: we no longer have to tell all back-end drivers directly, if we want to free a frame right after it was send to the firmware, or if we do it in the library callback later.

2008-12-19p54: move statistic timer update routine into a workqueueChristian Lamparter
This patch moves a good chunk of code from the former statistic update timer routine into a workqueue, which is kindly provided by mac80211. Also as a nice side-effect we can lay the foundation for other essential housekeeping features we want to do in the future. e.g: - drain the (clogged) tx_queue. - initiate bursts.

2008-12-12p54: fix oops on faulty devicesChristian Lamparter

2008-12-12mac80211: integrate sta_notify_ps cmds into sta_notifyChristian Lamparter
This patch replaces the newly introduced sta_notify_ps function, which can be used to notify the driver about every power state transition for all associated stations, by integrating its functionality back into the original sta_notify callback.

2008-12-12p54usb: rewriting rx/tx routines to make use of usb_anchor's facilitiesChristian Lamparter
Alan Stern found several flaws in p54usb's implementation and annotated: "usb_kill_urb() and similar routines do not expect an URB's completion routine to deallocate it.  This is almost obvious -- if the URB is deallocated before the completion routine returns then there's no way for usb_kill_urb to detect when the URB actually is complete." This patch addresses all known limitations in the old implementation and fixes khub's "use-after-freed" hang, when SLUB debug's poisoning option is enabled.

2008-12-05p54: fix lm87 checksum endiannessJohannes Berg
This fixes the checksum calculation for lm87 firmwares on big endian platforms, the device treats the data as an array of 32-bit little endian values so the driver needs to do that as well.

2008-12-05p54: per-device namesChristian Lamparter
This patch replaces the static "p54:" strings in front of most printk's with their corresponding per-device names. It was always a bit of a hassle to check which device was generating all the messages. Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@web.de> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2008-12-05p54: refactoringChristian Lamparter
Thanks to the introduction of "changed" flags, we no longer have to do the bookkeeping of p54's firmware state for everything. Thus we can cut down redundancy code. Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@web.de> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2008-12-05p54: include support for 2.13.24.0 USB LM87 FirmwaresChristian Lamparter

This patch addresses the problem in: http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=122727674810057&w=2 Thanks to Stefan Steuerwald <salsasepp@googlemail.com> extensive iPod touch tests. We could finally squash some bugs in p54's master mode / access point implementation.

2008-11-26p54: fix wmm queue settingsChristian Lamparter
This patch fixes a regression (introduced by "p54: more definitions form lmac_longbow.h and pda.h") It turned out that the "ret" variable wasn't initialized and this caused the following warnings/errors to appear: wmaster1: failed to set TX queue parameters for queue 2 wmaster1: failed to set TX queue parameters for queue 3 wmaster1: failed to set TX queue parameters for queue 1 wmaster1: failed to set TX queue parameters for queue 0 Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@web.de> Signed-off-by: John W.

2008-11-10p54: more definitions form lmac_longbow.h and pda.hChristian Lamparter
This patch ports more useful features to p54 - PDR definitions for the synth chips & regulatory domain. - honour IEEE80211_TX_CTL_ASSIGN_SEQ flag, if it's set. - adds some lost mutex_lock & mutex_unlock. - replace two more "magic values" that sneaked past.

2008-11-10p54: introduce new names for device firmwaresChristian Lamparter
Johannes thought it would have been a good idea to change the firmware names.

2008-10-31p54: fix memory managementChristian Lamparter
We have to be careful if multiple "control frames" are passed in a very short intervals to the device's firmware. As p54_assign_address always put them into same memory location. To guarantee that this won't happen anymore, we have to treat control frames like normal data frames in the devices own memory management.

2008-10-31mac80211/drivers: rewrite the rate control APIJohannes Berg
So after the previous changes we were still unhappy with how convoluted the API is and decided to make things simpler for everybody. This completely changes the rate control API, now taking into account 802.11n with MCS rates and more control, most drivers don't support that though.

2008-10-31mac80211: provide sequence numbersJohannes Berg
I've come to think that not providing sequence numbers for the normal STA mode case was a mistake, at least two drivers now had to implement code they wouldn't otherwise need, and I believe at76_usb and adm8211 might be broken. This patch makes mac80211 assign a sequence number to all those frames that need one except beacons. That means that if a driver only implements modes that do not do beaconing it need not worry about the sequence number. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2008-10-31p54: Move rx_mtu to struct bootrec_descLarry Finger

2008-10-31mac80211: introduce hw config change flagsJohannes Berg
This makes mac80211 notify the driver which configuration actually changed, e.g. channel etc. No driver changes, this is just plumbing, driver authors are expected to act on this if they want to. Also remove the HW CONFIG debug printk, it's incorrect, often we configure something else. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

This patch was made on behalf of Johannes request. "mac80211 and IEEE80211_CONF_SHORT_SLOT_TIME" Of course, bss_info_changed provides some more useful data. e.g.: basic_rates, dtim_period, beacon_int and maybe even more.
