* zd1211rw: treat MAXIM_NEW_RF(0x08) as UW2453_RF(0x09) for TP-Link WN322/422GHin-Tak Leung2009-02-111-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Three people (Petr Mensik <pihhan@cipis.net> ["si" should be U+0161 U+00ED], Stephen Ho <stephenhoinhk@gmail.com> on zd1211-devs and Ismael Ojeda Perez <iojedaperez@gmail.com> on linux-wireless) reported success in getting TP-Link WN322G/WN422G working by treating MAXIM_NEW_RF(0x08) as UW2453_RF(0x09) for rf chip hardware initialization.

* [PATCH] zd1211rw: Detect more AL2230S radiosDaniel Drake2007-07-101-1/+2
| | | | | | | | Zen Kato has a device which reports the 0xa RF type. The vendor driver treats this as AL2230S, the same as devices with the AL2230S bit in the POD. Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
* [PATCH] zd1211rw: Add UW2453 RF supportDaniel Drake2007-07-081-7/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds support for another radio appearing in new devices: the Ubec UW2453. It's more complicated than the other RF's we support, but Ubec publish full tech specs so we're able to understand the vendor code relatively well. Now that we support UW2453, we also support Atheros' new USB chip: the AR5007UG. From the little info we have, this appears to be just a rebranded ZD1211B. This RF code doesn't work very well -- lots more TX/RX errors than the other RFs. However, the vendor driver doesn't do any better, so this is all we can do for now.

* [PATCH] zd1211rw: Extend RF layerDaniel Drake2007-07-081-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | These changes are needed for UW2453 RF support: Add pointer which RF drivers can use to store private RF data Add exit hook so that RF drivers can free private data Allow RF's to disable the generic TX power integration handling code Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

* [PATCH] zd1211rw: rework band edge patchingDaniel Drake2007-04-281-0/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | This change allows RF drivers to provide their own 6M band edge patching implementation, while providing a generic implementation shared by most currently supported RF's. The upcoming ZD1211B/AL7230B code will use this to define its own patching function, which is different from the other RF configurations.

| | | | | | | | | | | ZD1211 appears to be back in production: a number of new devices have been appearing! Some of them are using new radios. This patch adds support for the next generation AL2230 RF chip which has been spotted in a few new devices. Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

* [PATCH] zd1211rw: cleanupsUlrich Kunitz2006-08-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add static to 2 internal functions. Thanks goes to Adrian Bunk, who found that. Also made some modifications to the clear functions: After a discussion on the mailing list, I implemented this code to have on the one hand sufficient test in debug mode, but on the other hand reduce the overhead for structure clearing to a minimum. A new macro ZD_MEMCLEAR is introduced, which produces code if DEBUG is set. Locks are not set anymore for structure clearing, but in debug mode, there is a verification, that the locks have not been set. Finally, removed a misleading comment regarding locking in the disconnect path. Signed-off-by: Ulrich Kunitz <kune@deine-taler.de> Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

* [PATCH] zd1211rw: Support AL7230B RFDaniel Drake2006-08-141-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | This patch adds support for another Airoha RF which is present in some ZD1211 adapters. This RF supports 802.11a as well as 802.11b/g, but 802.11a connectivity is not yet supported by this driver. Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

* [PATCH] ZyDAS ZD1211 USB-WLAN driverDaniel Drake2006-07-051-0/+151
There are 60+ USB wifi adapters available on the market based on the ZyDAS ZD1211 chip. Unlike the predecessor (ZD1201), ZD1211 does not have a hardware MAC, so most data operations are coordinated by the device driver. The ZD1211 chip sits alongside an RF transceiver which is also controlled by the driver. Our driver currently supports 2 RF types, we know of one other available in a few marketed products which we will be supporting soon. Our driver also supports the newer revision of ZD1211, called ZD1211B. The initialization and RF operations are slightly different for the new revision, but the main difference is 802.11e support. Our driver does not support the QoS features yet, but we think we know how to use them. This driver is based on ZyDAS's own GPL driver available from www.zydas.com.tw. ZyDAS engineers have been responsive and supportive of our efforts, so thumbs up to them. Additionally, the firmware is redistributable and they have provided device specs. This driver has been written primarily by Ulrich Kunitz and myself. Graham Gower, Greg KH, Remco and Bryan Rittmeyer have also contributed. The developers of ieee80211 and softmac have made our lives so much easier- thanks! We maintain a small info-page: http://zd1211.ath.cx/wiki/DriverRewrite If there is enough time for review, we would like to aim for inclusion in 2.6.18. The driver works nicely as a STA, and can connect to both open and encrypted networks (we are using software-based encryption for now). We will work towards supporting more advanced features in the future (ad-hoc, master mode, 802.11a, ...). Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: John W.
