2006-03-17[PATCH] ieee80211: Don't update network statistics from off-channel packets.James Ketrenos
This patch fixes a problem in the ieee80211 probe response and beacon reception code that would use the packet statistics for a network even if they were received on a channel other than that which the network exists on. This causes a problem in overlapping channels where, for example, a strong AP on channel 2 could have its beacons received on channels 1 and 3, but at much lower signal levels. If scanning was done sequentially, this means the beacon received on channel 3 would update the AP's signal level as being much lower than it really is, which subsequently could cause that AP to be passed over and an alternate AP selected.

2006-03-15[PATCH] ieee80211: Fix QoS is not active problemHong Liu
Fix QoS is not active even the network and the card is QOS enabled. The problem is we pass the wrong ieee80211_network address to ipw_handle_beacon/ipw_handle_probe_response, thus the ieee80211_network->qos_data.active will not be set, causing the driver not sending QoS frames at all.

2006-02-27[PATCH] ieee80211_geo.c: remove frivolous BUG_ON'sPete Zaitcev
I have come to consider BUG_ON generally harmful. The idea of an assert is to prevent a program to execute past a point where its state is known erroneous, thus preventing it from dealing more damage to the data (or hiding the traces of malfunction). The problem is, in kernel this harm has to be balanced against the harm of forced reboot. The last straw was our softmac tree, where "iwlist eth1 scan" causes a lockup. It is absolutely frivolus and provides no advantages a normal assert has to provide. In fact, doing this impedes debugging. Signed-off-by: Pete Zaitcev <zaitcev@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2006-01-30[PATCH] ieee80211: common wx auth codeLarry Finger
This patch creates two functions ieee80211_wx_set_auth and ieee80211_wx_get_auth that can be used by drivers for the wireless extension handlers instead of writing their own, if the implementation should be software only. These patches enable using bcm43xx devices with WPA and this seems (as far as I can tell) to be the only difference between the stock ieee80211 and softmac's ieee80211 left.

2006-01-27[PATCH] ieee80211: Add helpers for IBSS DFS handlingZhu Yi
To support IEEE 802.11h in IBSS, an ibss_dfs field is added to struct ieee80211_network. In IBSS, if one STA sends a beacon with DFS info (for radar detection), all the other STAs should receive and store this DFS. All STAs should send the DFS as one of the information element in the beacon they are scheduled to send (if possible) in the future. Since the ibss_dfs has variable length, it must be allocated dynamically. ieee80211_network_reset() is added to clear the ibss_dfs field. ieee80211_network_free() is also updated to free the ibss_dfs field if it is not NULL.

2006-01-09[PATCH] ieee80211: enable hw wep where host has to build IVJohannes Berg
This patch fixes some of the ieee80211 crypto related code so that instead of having the host fully do crypto operations, the host_build_iv flag works properly (for WEP in this patch) which, if turned on, requires the hardware to do all crypto operations, but the ieee80211 layer builds the IV. The hardware also has to build the ICV. Previously, the host_build_iv flag couldn't be used at all for WEP, and not alone (with both host_decrypt and host_encrypt disabled) because the crypto algorithm wasn't assigned. This is also fixed. I have tested this patch both in host crypto mode and in hw crypto mode (with the Broadcom chipset).
