* p54: Fix for TX sequence number problemLarry Finger2008-08-072-0/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Following "mac80211: fix TX sequence numbers", if a packet has the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_ASSIGN_SEQ assigned, a sequence number must be supplied, either by hardware or software. AFAIK, no such hardware exists for the p54, thus it must be done in software. With this patch, a connection qith p54usb is stable, whereas the interface went off-line in 2-3 hours without this change. Note that this code will have to be reworked for proper sequence numbers on beacons. In addition, the sequence number has been placed in the hardware state, not the vif state.

* p54: Fix potential concurrent access to private dataLarry Finger2008-08-042-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | Experience with the rtl8187 driver has shown that mac80211 can make calls to the config callback routine in rapid succession. This patch creates a mutex that protects the private data in several of the routines called by mac80211. Signed-off-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

* | p54: Add quality output to iwlist and iwconfigLarry.Finger@lwfinger.net2008-07-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The p54 driver family reports a quality of 0 in iwconfig and iwlist output. This patch calculates a quality number as a percentage of the rssi to the maximum signal of 127 reported as the maximum signal.

* | p54: fix skb->cb tx info conversionJohannes Berg2008-06-031-5/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When I moved the TX info into skb->cb apparently I forgot to change a few places to put the p54-internal data into info->driver_data rather than skb->cb. This should fix it. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
* | mac80211: use multi-queue master netdeviceJohannes Berg2008-05-211-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch updates mac80211 and drivers to be multi-queue aware and use that instead of the internal queue mapping. Also does a number of cleanups in various pieces of the code that fall out and reduces internal mac80211 state size. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

* | mac80211: move TX info into skb->cbJohannes Berg2008-05-212-53/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch converts mac80211 and all drivers to have transmit information and status in skb->cb rather than allocating extra memory for it and copying all the data around. To make it fit, a union is used where only data that is necessary for all steps is kept outside of the union. A number of fixes were done by Ivo, as well as the rt2x00 part of this patch.

* | mac80211: use rate index in TX controlJohannes Berg2008-05-211-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch modifies struct ieee80211_tx_control to give band info and the rate index (instead of rate pointers) to drivers. This mostly serves to reduce the TX control structure size to make it fit into skb->cb so that the fragmentation code can put it there and we can think about passing it to drivers that way in the future. The rt2x00 driver update was done by Ivo, thanks. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

* | mac80211: let drivers wake but not start queuesJohannes Berg2008-05-212-4/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Having drivers start queues is just confusing, their ->start() callback can block and do whatever is necessary, so let mac80211 start queues and have drivers wake queues when necessary (to get packets flowing again right away.)

* | mac80211: use hardware flags for signal/noise unitsBruno Randolf2008-05-141-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | trying to clean up the signal/noise code. the previous code in mac80211 had confusing names for the related variables, did not have much definition of what units of signal and noise were provided and used implicit mechanisms from the wireless extensions. this patch introduces hardware capability flags to let the hardware specify clearly if it can provide signal and noise level values and which units it can provide. this also anticipates possible new units like RCPI in the future. for signal: IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_UNSPEC - unspecified, unknown, hw specific IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DB - dB difference to unspecified reference point IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DBM - dBm, difference to 1mW for noise we currently only have dBm: IEEE80211_HW_NOISE_DBM - dBm, difference to 1mW if IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_UNSPEC or IEEE80211_HW_SIGNAL_DB is used the driver has to provide the maximum value (max_signal) it reports in order for applications to make sense of the signal values. i tried my best to find out for each driver what it can provide and update it but i'm not sure (?) for some of them and used the more conservative guess in doubt. this can be fixed easily after this patch has been merged by changing the hardware flags of the driver.
