2008-01-28mac80211: dont use interface indices in driversJohannes Berg
This patch gets rid of the if_id stuff where possible in favour of a new per-virtual-interface structure "struct ieee80211_vif". This structure is located at the end of the per-interface structure and contains a variable length driver-use data area. This has two advantages: * removes the need to look up interfaces by if_id, this is better for working with network namespaces and performance * allows drivers to store and retrieve per-interface data without having to allocate own lists/hash tables Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

2008-01-28rt2x00: Move start() and stop() handlers into rt2x00lib.cIvo van Doorn
suspend & resume was broken since it called rt2x00mac_start() and rt2x00mac_stop() which would fail to execute because the DEVICE_PRESENT flag was not set. Move the start and stop handlers into rt2x00lib.c which are called from rt2x00mac_start() and rt2x00mac_stop() after they have checked the DEVICE_PRESENT flag, while suspend and resume handlers can directly call those functions.

2008-01-28rt2x00: Always call ieee80211_stop_queue() when return NETDEV_TX_BUSYIvo van Doorn
Apparently it was possible that ieee80211_stop_queue() was not full while NETDEV_TX_BUSY was being reported back. I think that is what causing the WARN_ON(). This moves all calls to ieee80211_stop_queue() in rt2x00mac.c where it is easier to determine if the queue should be halted. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2008-01-28rt2x00: Use IEEE80211_IF_TYPE_INVALID directlyIvo van Doorn
No need to use a seperate define INVALID_INTERFACE while we can use IEEE80211_IF_TYPE_INVALID directly. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2008-01-28rt2x00: Replace DRV_NAME with KBUILD_MODNAMEIvo van Doorn
DRV_NAME was always set to the KBUILD_MODNAME value, lets clean everything up by removing DRV_NAME and just use KBUILD_MODNAME directly. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2007-11-10rt2x00: Block adhoc & master modeIvo van Doorn
rt2x00 is broken when it comes down to adhoc and master mode. The main problem is the beaconing, which is completely failing. Untill a solution has been found, both beacon requiring modes must be disabled to prevent numerous bug reports. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2007-10-10[PATCH] rt2x00: Reorganize configuration handlerIvo van Doorn
Reorganize configuration handling by creating a extra structure which contains precalculated values based on the mac80211 values which are usefull for all individual drivers. This also fixes the preamble configuration problem, up untill now preamble was never configured since by default the rate->val value was used when changing the mode. Now rate->val will only be used to set the basic rate mask. The preamble configuration will now be done correctly through the erp_ie_changed callback function.

2007-10-10[PATCH] rt2x00: Pass dev_state to rt2x00lib_toggle_rxIvo van Doorn
Directly pass a value from the enum dev_state with rt2x00lib_toggle_rx, this will save us a ? : statement, and it is clearer then passing a 1 0 argument. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2007-10-10[PATCH] rt2x00: Reorganize rt2x00dev->flagsIvo van Doorn
The rt2x00dev->flags has become a chaos over time, this will reorganize the flags by renaming, deleting, adding and properly implement the flags. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2007-10-10[PATCH] mac80211: revamp interface and filter configurationJohannes Berg
Drivers are currently supposed to keep track of monitor interfaces if they allow so-called "hard" monitor, and they are also supposed to keep track of multicast etc. This patch changes that, replaces the set_multicast_list() callback with a new configure_filter() callback that takes filter flags (FIF_*) instead of interface flags (IFF_*). For a driver, this means it should open the filter as much as necessary to get all frames requested by the filter flags. Accordingly, the filter flags are named "positively", e.g. FIF_ALLMULTI. Multicast filtering is a bit special in that drivers that have no multicast address filters need to allow multicast frames through when either the FIF_ALLMULTI flag is set or when the mc_count value is positive. At the same time, drivers are no longer notified about monitor interfaces at all, this means they now need to implement the start() and stop() callbacks and the new change_filter_flags() callback. Also, the start()/stop() ordering changed, start() is now called *before* any add_interface() as it really should be, and stop() after any remove_interface(). The patch also changes the behaviour of setting the bssid to multicast for scanning when IEEE80211_HW_NO_PROBE_FILTERING is set; the IEEE80211_HW_NO_PROBE_FILTERING flag is removed and the filter flag FIF_BCN_PRBRESP_PROMISC introduced. This is a lot more efficient for hardware like b43 that supports it and other hardware can still set the BSSID to all-ones.
