      mac80211: make master netdev handling sane · 3e122be0
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      Currently, almost every interface type has a 'bss' pointer
      pointing to BSS information. This BSS information, however,
      is for a _local_ BSS, not for the BSS we joined, so having
      it on a STA mode interface makes little sense, but now they
      have it pointing to the master device, which is an AP mode
      virtual interface. However, except for some bitrate control
      data, this pointer is only used in AP/VLAN modes (for power
      saving stations.)
      
      Overall, it is not necessary to even have the master netdev
      be a valid virtual interface, and it doesn't have to be on
      the list of interfaces either.
      
      This patch changes the master netdev to be special, it now
       - no longer is on the list of virtual interfaces, which
         lets me remove a lot of tests for that
       - no longer has sub_if_data attached, since that isn't used
      
      Additionally, this patch changes some vlan/ap mode handling
      that is related to these 'bss' pointers described above (but
      in the VLAN case they actually make sense because there they
      point to the AP they belong to); it also adds some debugging
      code to IEEE80211_DEV_TO_SUB_IF to validate it is not called
      on the master netdev any more.

      mac80211: Add RTNL version of ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces · 2f561feb
      Ivo van Doorn 提交于
      Since commit e38bad47
      	mac80211: make ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces not need rtnl
      rt2500usb and rt73usb broke down due to attempting register access
      in atomic context (which is not possible for USB hardware).
      
      This patch restores ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces() to use RTNL lock,
      and provides the non-RTNL version under a new name:
      	ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces_atomic()
      
      So far only rt2x00 uses ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces(), and those
      drivers require the RTNL version of ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces().
      Since they already call that function directly, this patch will automatically
      fix the USB rt2x00 drivers.

      cfg80211 API for channels/bitrates, mac80211 and driver conversion · 8318d78a
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      This patch creates new cfg80211 wiphy API for channel and bitrate
      registration and converts mac80211 and drivers to the new API. The
      old mac80211 API is completely ripped out. All drivers (except ath5k)
      are updated to the new API, in many cases I expect that optimisations
      can be done.
      
      Along with the regulatory code I've also ripped out the
      IEEE80211_HW_DEFAULT_REG_DOMAIN_CONFIGURED flag, I believe it to be
      unnecessary if the hardware simply gives us whatever channels it wants
      to support and we then enable/disable them as required, which is pretty
      much required for travelling.
      
      Additionally, the patch adds proper "basic" rate handling for STA
      mode interface, AP mode interface will have to have new API added
      to allow userspace to set the basic rate set, currently it'll be
      empty... However, the basic rate handling will need to be moved to
      the BSS conf stuff.
      
      I do expect there to be bugs in this, especially wrt. transmit
      power handling where I'm basically clueless about how it should work.
