      ath9k_common: move the rate status setting into ath9k_process_rate() · 8e155994
      由 Luis R. Rodriguez 提交于 
      This has no real functional change, this just moves the setting the
the mac80211 rate index into ath9k_process_rate(). This allows us
to eventually make ath9k_process_rate() return a negative value
in case we have detected a specific case rate situation which should
have been ignored.

      由 John W. Linville 提交于 
      Device documentation suggests that hardware support for beaconing
is available.  But I implemented software-based beacon generation
as an experiment and it seems better to have that working now rather
than waiting for something better to materialize.

      rt2x00: Fix RF3052 channel initialization · 55f9321a
      由 Ivo van Doorn 提交于 
      Update channel initialization for the RF3052 chipset.
According to the Ralink drivers, the rt3x array must be
used for this chipset, rather then the rt2x array.

Furthermore RF3052 supports the 5GHz band, extend
the rt3x array with the 5GHz channels, and use them
for the RF3052 chip.

      The SIFS value is a constant and doesn't need to be updated on erp changes.
Furthermore the code used 10us for both, the OFDM SIFS and CCK SIFS time
which broke CTS protected 11g connections (see patch "rt2x00: rt2800: update

      rt2x00: rt2800: update initial SIFS values · a21c2ab4
      由 Helmut Schaa 提交于 
      Currently the CCK and OFDM SIFS value is set to 32us. This value is neither
used by the Ralink driver nor specified in 802.11.

Instead of using 10us for CCK SIFS (as defined in 802.11) use 16us like in the
Ralink drivers. And indeed using a SIFS value of 10us breaks connectivity with
11g + CTS protected connections. Add a comment to the code why we don't use 10us
for CCK SIFS value.

The OFDM SIFS value is set to 16us (as defined in 802.11 and also used by the
Ralink drivers).

      ath9k_htc: Fix beaconing in IBSS mode · 9c6dda4e
      由 Sujith 提交于 
      The current way of managing beaconing in ad-hoc
mode has a subtle race - the beacon obtained from mac80211
is freed in the SWBA handler rather than the TX
completion routine. But transmission of beacons goes
through the normal SKB queue maintained in hif_usb,
leading to a situation where __skb_dequeue() in the TX
completion handler goes kaput.

Fix this by simply getting a beacon from mac80211 for
every SWBA and free it in its completion routine.

      mac80211: improve HT channel handling · 0aaffa9b
      由 Johannes Berg 提交于 
      Currently, when one interface switches HT mode,
all others will follow along. This is clearly
undesirable, since the new one might switch to
no-HT while another one is operating in HT.

Address this issue by keeping track of the HT
mode per interface, and allowing only changes
that are compatible, i.e. switching into HT40+
is not possible when another interface is in
HT40-, in that case the second one needs to
fall back to HT20.

Also, to allow drivers to know what's going on,
store the per-interface HT mode (channel type)
in the virtual interface's bss_conf.

      cfg80211/mac80211: better channel handling · f444de05
      由 Johannes Berg 提交于 
      Currently (all tested with hwsim) you can do stupid
things like setting up an AP on a certain channel,
then adding another virtual interface and making
that associate on another channel -- this will make
the beaconing to move channel but obviously without
the necessary IEs data update.

In order to improve this situation, first make the
configuration APIs (cfg80211 and nl80211) aware of
multi-channel operation -- we'll eventually need
that in the future anyway. There's one userland API
change and one API addition. The API change is that
now SET_WIPHY must be called with virtual interface
index rather than only wiphy index in order to take
effect for that interface -- luckily all current
users (hostapd) do that. For monitor interfaces, the
old setting is preserved, but monitors are always
slaved to other devices anyway so no guarantees.

The second userland API change is the introduction
of a per virtual interface SET_CHANNEL command, that
hostapd should use going forward to make it easier
to understand what's going on (it can automatically
detect a kernel with this command).

Other than mac80211, no existing cfg80211 drivers
are affected by this change because they only allow
a single virtual interface.

mac80211, however, now needs to be aware that the
channel settings are per interface now, and needs
to disallow (for now) real multi-channel operation,
which is another important part of this patch.

One of the immediate benefits is that you can now
start hostapd to operate on a hardware that already
has a connection on another virtual interface, as
long as you specify the same channel.

Note that two things are left unhandled (this is an
improvement -- not a complete fix):

 * different HT/no-HT modes

   currently you could start an HT AP and then
   connect to a non-HT network on the same channel
   which would configure the hardware for no HT;
   that can be fixed fairly easily

 * CSA

   An AP we're connected to on a virtual interface
   might indicate switching channels, and in that
   case we would follow it, regardless of how many
   other interfaces are operating; this requires
   more effort to fix but is pretty rare after all

      Atheros hardware supports receiving frames that span multiple

      ar9170usb: remove deprecated aggregation code · f3926b49
      由 Christian Lamparter 提交于 
      This patch removes the incomplete AMPDU implementation in ar9170usb.

The code in question is:
 * too big and complex (more than 550 SLOC.)
   This is enough to qualify for a new separate code file!

 * unbalanced quantity & quality
	over-engineered areas like:
		* xmit scheduling and queuing frames for multiple HT peers
		* redundant frame sorting
	are confronted by gaping holes:
		* accurate transmission feedback
		* firmware error-handling and device reset
		* HT rate control algorithm

 * error-prone
	Since its inclusion, hardly anything was done to fix
	any of the outlined flaws from the initial commit message.

   => This also indicates poor maintainability.

 * relies heavily on several spinlocks.

As a result of this shortcomings, the code is slow and does not
even support the most basic 11n requirement: HT station mode.

Therefore, I request to purge my heap of **** from the kernel:
"ar9170: implement transmit aggregation".

The next item on the agenda is: (re-)start from scratch with
an adequate design to accommodate the special requirements
and features of the available frameworks and tools.
