mac80211: notify drivers on sta rate table changes

2014-11-19T18:15:50+00:00

This allows drivers with a firmware or chip-based rate lookup table to
use the most recent default rate selection without having to get it from
per-packet data or explicit ieee80211_get_tx_rate calls

mac80211: allow drivers to support NL80211_SCAN_FLAG_RANDOM_ADDR

2014-11-19T17:46:09+00:00

Allow drivers to support NL80211_SCAN_FLAG_RANDOM_ADDR with software
based scanning and generate a random MAC address for them for every
scan request with the flag.

mac80211: add TDLS channel-switch Rx flow

2014-11-19T17:45:26+00:00

When receiving a TDLS channel switch request or response, parse the frame
and call a new tdls_recv_channel_switch op in the low level driver with
the parsed data.

mac80211: introduce TDLS channel switch ops

2014-11-19T17:45:21+00:00

Implement the cfg80211 TDLS channel switch ops and introduce new mac80211
ones for low-level drivers.
Verify low-level driver support for the new ops when using the relevant
wiphy feature bit. Also verify the peer supports channel switching before
passing the command down.

Add a new STA flag to track the off-channel state with the TDLS peer and
make sure to cancel the channel-switch if the peer STA is unexpectedly
removed.

mac80211: replace restart_complete() with reconfig_complete()

2014-11-04T12:49:00+00:00

Drivers might want to know also when mac80211 has
completed reconfiguring after resume (e.g. in order
to know when frames can be passed to mac80211).

Rename restart_complete() to a more-generic reconfig_complete(),
and add a new enum to indicate the reconfiguration type.

Update the current users with the new prototype.

mac80211: 802.11p OCB mode support

2014-11-04T12:18:21+00:00

This patch adds 802.11p OCB (Outside the Context of a BSS) mode
support.

When communicating in OCB mode a mandatory wildcard BSSID
(48 '1' bits) is used.

The EDCA parameters handling function was changed to support
802.11p specific values.

The insertion of a newly discovered STAs is done in the similar way
as in the IBSS mode -- through the deferred insertion.

The OCB mode uses a periodic 'housekeeping task' for expiration of
disconnected STAs (in the similar manner as in the MESH mode).

New Kconfig option for verbose OCB debugging outputs is added.

mac80211: add support for driver tx power reporting

2014-11-04T09:15:09+00:00

The configured tx power is often limited by hardware capabilities,
channel settings, antenna configuration, etc.

mac80211: sanity check CW_min/CW_max towards driver

2014-10-22T08:42:09+00:00

There's no reason to ever set invalid CW_min/CW_max to the
drivers, we should catch it in higher layers. However, the
consequences of setting it wrong can be quite severe, so
double-check at a low level and error out for invalid data.

mac80211: allow channel switch with multiple channel contexts

2014-10-09T09:30:09+00:00

Channel switch with multiple channel contexts should now work fine.
Remove check that disallows switches when multiple contexts are in
use.

mac80211: add post_channel_switch driver operation

2014-10-09T09:30:09+00:00

As a counterpart to the pre_channel_switch operation, add a
post_channel_switch operation.  This allows the drivers to go back to
a normal configuration after the channel switch is completed.
