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.

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: NIvo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

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.)

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.

iwl3945 <---> mac80211 <----> wpa_supplicant <---> NetworkManager When a hardware scan is completed and another scan is requested in less than two seconds, iwlwifi will not do the second scan and will pass the error code -EAGAIN back to mac80211 where it quickly dies. The error code is not passed along to the calling program wpa_supplicant. After a timeout, wpa_supplicant will just give up but it will not know why the scan failed. This is a weakness in the design. I ran into this issue when I was trying to figure out why it takes more an a minute for NetworkManager to connect after Networking has been disabled and then re-enabled. I found a good deal of unnecessary work being done because mac80211 requests authentication when the interface is not configured, the ANY mode. I created an experimental passive (NOTANY) mode for mac80211 to eliminate this case. Then NetworkManager became so fast that I ran into the iwlwifi 2 second delay next scan issue which we are discussing. The patch resolves the problem by bypassing the delay if the scan request is a direct scan. It should do less harm to the hardware.

This * makes the queue number passed to drivers a u16 (as it will be with skb_get_queue_mapping) * removes the useless queue number defines * splits hw->queues into hw->queues/ampdu_queues * removes the debugfs files for per-queue counters * removes some dead QoS code * removes the beacon queue configuration for IBSS so that the drivers now never get a queue number bigger than (hw->queues + hw->ampdu_queues - 1) for tx and only in the range 0..hw->queues-1 for conf_tx.

The hw_key_idx inside the ieee80211_key_conf structure does not provide all the information drivers might need to perform hardware encryption. This is in particular true for rt2x00 who needs to know the key algorithm and whether it is a shared or pairwise key. By passing the ieee80211_key_conf pointer it assures us that drivers can make full use of all information that it should know about a particular key. Additionally this patch updates all drivers to grab the hw_key_idx from the ieee80211_key_conf structure. v2: Removed bogus u16 cast v3: Add warning about ieee80211_tx_control pointers v4: Update warning about ieee80211_tx_control pointers Signed-off-by: NIvo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Acked-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

direct_mask will be set when we are not associated and requesting a direct scan.

This patch add LEDS support to 3965 and 4965 drivers. It is based on led trigger and class. For our drivers we needed to avoid two things. 1- We receive led trigger on/off on each Rx\Tx frame. In our driver we can not call led command like that. In this driver once driver receive a start of traffic it call the led command to start blinking then we count all bytes of Tx and Rx frame, after two second we count the blink rate of last two second then id blink rate changed we call the led commands 2- Since we can call led command very often, we make sure we call the led command after we receive the statistics notification so we don't need to wake up the ucode id it is in sleep state.

The iwlxxxx_pci_remove functions are not needed when drivers are not compiled as modules - they can thus be discarded at kernel link time. This is already captured by having them as __devexit_p in the pci_driver struct - these are supposed to be pointers to __devexit functions, but was not. This is now fixed.
