2008-02-29cfg80211 API for channels/bitrates, mac80211 and driver conversionJohannes Berg
This patch creates new cfg80211 wiphy API for channel and bitrate registration and converts mac80211 and drivers to the new API. The old mac80211 API is completely ripped out. All drivers (except ath5k) are updated to the new API, in many cases I expect that optimisations can be done. Along with the regulatory code I've also ripped out the IEEE80211_HW_DEFAULT_REG_DOMAIN_CONFIGURED flag, I believe it to be unnecessary if the hardware simply gives us whatever channels it wants to support and we then enable/disable them as required, which is pretty much required for travelling. Additionally, the patch adds proper "basic" rate handling for STA mode interface, AP mode interface will have to have new API added to allow userspace to set the basic rate set, currently it'll be empty... However, the basic rate handling will need to be moved to the BSS conf stuff. I do expect there to be bugs in this, especially wrt. transmit power handling where I'm basically clueless about how it should work.

2008-02-29mac80211: dissolve pre-rx handlersJohannes Berg
These handlers do not really return a status and the compiler can do a much better job when they're simply static functions that it can inline if appropriate. Also makes the code shorter.

2008-02-29mac80211: A-MPDU Tx add session's and low level driver's APIRon Rindjunsky
This patch adds the API for 3 stages in A-MPDU Tx session flow: - request mac80211 to start/stop A-MPDU Tx session for specific TID. such a request should be issued by a load aware element, either mac80211 itself or external element. - requests by mac80211 to low-level driver to start/stop Tx aggregation. notice that low level driver responds now with Starting Sequence Number. - async feedback by low-level to mac80211 to inform that HW is ready for next A-MPDU Tx state. Changes in API to Rx A-MPDU were also made, reflected in iwlwifi changes as well. Signed-off-by: Ron Rindjunsky <ron.rindjunsky@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2008-02-29mac80211: allow sending multicast frames through virtual portsJohannes Berg
When reworking the port access control code, I forgot multicast frames and those are now always rejected because the destination station is not known. This changes the code to allow through multicast frames and also avoid the sta hash lookup (which is bound to fail) for them.

2008-02-28[IPV6]: Fix source address selection for ORCHID addressesJuha-Matti Tapio
Skip the prefix length matching in source address selection for orchid -> non-orchid addresses. Overlay Routable Cryptographic Hash IDentifiers (RFC 4843, 2001:10::/28) are currenty not globally reachable. Without this check a host with an ORCHID address can end up preferring those over regular addresses when talking to other regular hosts in the 2001::/16 range thus breaking non-orchid connections.

2008-02-28[IPV6]: Add ORCHID prefix to address label tableJuha-Matti Tapio
Add a new label for Overlay Routable Cryptographic Hash Identifiers (RFC 4843) prefix 2001:10::/28 to help proper source address selection. ORCHID addresses are used by for example Host Identity Protocol. They are global and routable, but they currently need support from both endpoints and therefore mixing regular and ORCHID addresses for source and destination is a bad idea in general case.

2008-02-28[SCTP]: Clean up naming conventions of sctp protocol/address family registrationNeil Horman
I noticed while looking into some odd behavior in sctp, that the variable name sctp_pf_inet6_specific was used twice to represent two different pieces of data (its both a structure name and a pointer to that type of structure), which is confusing to say the least, and potentially dangerous depending on the variable scope. This patch cleans that up, and makes the protocol and address family registration names in SCTP more regular, increasing readability.

2008-02-28[IPCOMP]: Disable BH on output when using shared tfmHerbert Xu
Because we use shared tfm objects in order to conserve memory, (each tfm requires 128K of vmalloc memory), BH needs to be turned off on output as that can occur in process context. Previously this was done implicitly by the xfrm output code. That was lost when it became lockless. So we need to add the BH disabling to IPComp directly.
