libipw: switch from ieee80211_* to libipw_* naming policy

2009-08-28T18:40:28+00:00

This eliminates the dual definition of ieee80211_channel (and possibly
others), further clarifying who defines what and paving the way for
inclusion of cfg80211.h.

This is never changed by the function, so can be marked const.

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: Create IW_REQUEST_FLAG_COMPAT and set it as needed.

2008-06-17T01:34:49+00:00

Now low-level WEXT ioctl handlers can do compat handling
when necessary.

[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.

[PATCH] WE-20 for kernel 2.6.16

2006-03-23T12:12:57+00:00

	This is version 20 of the Wireless Extensions. This is the
completion of the RtNetlink work I started early 2004, it enables the
full Wireless Extension API over RtNetlink.

	Few comments on the patch :
	o totally driver transparent, no change in drivers needed.
	o iwevent were already RtNetlink based since they were created
(around 2.5.7). This adds all the regular SET and GET requests over
RtNetlink, using the exact same mechanism and data format as iwevents.
	o This is a Kconfig option, as currently most people have no
need for it. Surprisingly, patch is actually small and well
encapsulated.
	o Tested on SMP, attention as been paid to make it 64 bits clean.
	o Code do probably too many checks and could be further
optimised, but better safe than sorry.
	o RtNetlink based version of the Wireless Tools available on
my web page for people inclined to try out this stuff.

	I would also like to thank Alexey Kuznetsov for his helpful
suggestions to make this patch better.
