wireless: docs: fix 'make pdfdocs' failure

2015-01-28T07:53:58+00:00

'make pdfdocs' failed for 80211.tmpl and reported errors of the form:
'document type does not allow element "refentry" here'
Fix this by moving  tags to a location that makes sense,
this fixes the errors and the pdf looks OK in relevant areas.

cfg80211: docs: remove station_info_flags

I removed the enum earlier, but forgot to remove it from the
documentation - do that now.

cfg80211: refactor cfg80211_can_use_iftype_chan()

2014-04-09T08:55:39+00:00

Separate the code that counts the interface types and channels from
the code that check the interface combinations.  The new function that
checks for combinations is exported so it can be called by the
drivers.

This is done in preparation for moving the interface combinations
checks out of cfg80211.

cfg80211: docbook: add interface combinations documentation

2014-02-21T08:27:34+00:00

Add the ieee80211_iface_limit and the ieee80211_iface_combination
structures to docbook.  Reformat the examples of combinations
slightly, so it looks a bit better on docbook.

mac80211: add control port protocol TX control flag

2013-08-12T12:09:29+00:00

A lot of drivers check the frame protocol for ETH_P_PAE,
for various reasons (like making those more reliable).
Add a new flags bitmap to the TX control info and a new
flag indicating the control port protocol is in use to
let all drivers also apply such logic to other control
port protocols, should they be configured.

Also use the new flag in the iwlwifi drivers.

cfg80211/mac80211: use cfg80211 wdev mutex in mac80211

2013-05-24T22:02:16+00:00

Using separate locks in cfg80211 and mac80211 has always
caused issues, for example having to unlock in places in
mac80211 to call cfg80211, which even needed a framework
to make cfg80211 calls after some functions returned etc.

Additionally, I suspect some issues people have reported
with the cfg80211 state getting confused could be due to
such issues, when cfg80211 is asking mac80211 to change
state but mac80211 is in the process of telling cfg80211
that the state changed (in another way.)

mac80211: provide ieee80211_sta_eosp()

2013-03-07T13:33:21+00:00

The irqsafe version ieee80211_sta_eosp_irqsafe() exists, but
drivers must not mix calls to any irqsafe/non-irqsafe function.
Both ath9k and iwlwifi, the likely first users of this interface,
use non-irqsafe RX/TX/TX status so must also use a non-irqsafe
version of this function. Since no driver uses the _irqsafe()
version, remove that.
