2009-05-11cfg80211: put wext data into substructureJohannes Berg
To make it more apparent in the code what is for wext only (and needs to be #ifdef'ed) put all the info for wext into a substruct in each wireless_dev. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2009-04-22nl80211: allow configuring IBSS beacon intervalJohannes Berg
Make the JOIN_IBSS command look at the beacon interval attribute to see if the user requested a specific beacon interval, if not default to 100 TU (wext too). Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2009-04-22cfg80211: clear WEXT SSID when clearing IBSSJohannes Berg
When we leave an IBSS, we should clear the SSID and not just the BSSID, but since WEXT allows configuring while the interface is down we must not clear it when leaving due to taking the iface down, so some complications are needed.

2009-04-22cfg80211: clean up includesJohannes Berg
Trying to separate header files into net/wireless.h and net/cfg80211.h has been a source of confusion. Remove net/wireless.h (because there also is the linux/wireless.h) and subsume everything into net/cfg80211.h -- except the definitions for regulatory structures which get moved to a new header net/regulatory.h. The "new" net/cfg80211.h is now divided into sections. There are no real changes in this patch but code shuffling and some very minor documentation fixes. I have also, to make things reflect reality, put in a copyright line for Luis to net/regulatory.h since that is probably exclusively written by him but was formerly in a file that only had my copyright line.

2009-04-22cfg80211/nl80211: add IBSS APIJohannes Berg
This adds IBSS API along with (preliminary) wext handlers. The wext handlers can only do IBSS so you need to call them from your own wext handlers if the mode is IBSS. The nl80211 API requires * an SSID * a channel (frequency) for the case that a new IBSS has to be created It optionally supports * a flag to fix the channel * a fixed BSSID The cfg80211 code also takes care to leave the IBSS before the netdev is set down. If wireless extensions are used, it also caches values when the interface is down and instructs the driver to join when the interface is set up.
