mac80211: sparse RCU annotations

2011-05-16T18:10:41+00:00

This adds sparse RCU annotations to most of
mac80211, only the mesh code remains to be
done.

Due the the previous patches, the annotations
are pretty simple. The only thing that this
actually changes is removing the RCU usage of
key->sta in debugfs since this pointer isn't
actually an RCU-managed pointer (it only has
a single assignment done before the key even
goes live). As that is otherwise harmless, I
decided to make it part of this patch.

mac80211: don't start the dynamic ps timer if not associated

2011-05-10T19:35:43+00:00

When we are disconnecting, we set PS off, but this happens before we
send the deauth/disassoc request.  When the deauth/disassoc frames are
sent, we trigger the dynamic ps timer, which then times out and turns
PS back on.  Thus, PS remains on after disconnecting, causing problems
when associating again.

This can be fixed by preventing the timer to start when we're not
associated anymore.

mac80211: set TID of internal mgmt packets to 7

2011-05-05T18:59:06+00:00

The queue mapping of internal mgmt packets is set to VO. Set the TID
value to match the queue mapping. Otherwise drivers that only look at
the TID might get confused.

mac80211: Skip tailroom reservation for full HW-crypto devices

2011-04-28T18:53:21+00:00

In xmit path, devices that do full hardware crypto (including
TKIP MMIC) need no tailroom. For such devices, tailroom
reservation can be skipped if all the keys are programmed into
the hardware (i.e software crypto is not used for any of the
keys) and none of the keys wants software to generate Michael
MIC.

2011-04-12T20:57:37+00:00

To NL80211_MESH_SETUP_IE. This reflects our ability to insert any ie
into a mesh beacon, not simply path selection ies.
