wext: Emit event stream entries correctly when compat.

2008-06-17T01:50:49+00:00

Three major portions to this change:

1) Add IW_EV_COMPAT_LCP_LEN, IW_EV_COMPAT_POINT_OFF,
   and IW_EV_COMPAT_POINT_LEN helper defines.

2) Delete iw_stream_check_add_*(), they are unused.

3) Add iw_request_info argument to iwe_stream_add_*(), and use it to
   size the event and pointer lengths correctly depending upon whether
   IW_REQUEST_FLAG_COMPAT is set or not.

4) The mechanical transformations to the drivers and wireless stack
   bits to get the iw_request_info passed down into the routines
   modified in #3.  Also, explicit references to IW_EV_LCP_LEN are
   replaced with iwe_stream_lcp_len(info).

With a lot of help and bug fixes from Masakazu Mokuno.

wext: Dispatch and handle compat ioctls entirely in net/wireless/wext.c

2008-06-17T01:32:46+00:00

Next we can kill the hacks in fs/compat_ioctl.c and also
dispatch compat ioctls down into the driver and 80211 protocol
helper layers in order to handle iw_point objects embedded in
stream replies which need to be translated.

WEXT: Add support for passing PMK and capability flags to WEXT

2008-06-03T19:00:28+00:00

This defines the flags for setting the PMK to the driver and the
capability flag for this so that the user space program can figure out
whether the target driver wants to do 4-way hand shake by itself and
pass the PMK which is needed before 4-way handshake to the driver.

introduce WEXT scan capabilities

2008-01-28T22:58:25+00:00

Introduce scan capabilities to WEXT so that userspace can do intelligent
things with scan behavior such as handling hidden SSIDs more gracefully.
If the driver reports a specific scan capability, the driver must
respect the options specified in the iw_scan_req structure when handling
the SIOCSIWSCAN call, unless it's mode or state does not allow it to do
so, in which case it must return an error.

This version switches to Dave Kilroy's suggestion of claiming unused
padding space for the scan_capa field.

[PATCH] Update my email address from jkmaline@cc.hut.fi to j@w1.fi

2007-04-28T15:01:01+00:00

After 13 years of use, it looks like my email address is finally going
to disappear. While this is likely to drop the amount of incoming spam
greatly ;-), it may also affect more appropriate messages, so let's
update my email address in various places. In addition, Host AP mailing
list is subscribers-only and linux-wireless can also be used for
discussing issues related to this driver which is now shown in
MAINTAINERS.

[PATCH] WE-22 : prevent information leak on 64 bit

2007-03-27T18:10:26+00:00

 	Johannes Berg discovered that kernel space was leaking to
userspace on 64 bit platform. He made a first patch to fix that. This
is an improved version of his patch.
