This adds the new wireless regulatory infrastructure. The main motiviation behind this was to centralize regulatory code as each driver was implementing their own regulatory solution, and to replace the initial centralized code we have where: * only 3 regulatory domains are supported: US, JP and EU * regulatory domains can only be changed through module parameter * all rules were built statically in the kernel We now have support for regulatory domains for many countries and regulatory domains are now queried through a userspace agent through udev allowing distributions to update regulatory rules without updating the kernel. Each driver can regulatory_hint() a regulatory domain based on either their EEPROM mapped regulatory domain value to a respective ISO/IEC 3166-1 country code or pass an internally built regulatory domain. We also add support to let the user set the regulatory domain through userspace in case of faulty EEPROMs to further help compliance. Support for world roaming will be added soon for cards capable of this. For more information see: http://wireless.kernel.org/en/developers/Regulatory/CRDA For now we leave an option to enable the old module parameter, ieee80211_regdom, and to build the 3 old regdomains statically (US, JP and EU). This option is CONFIG_WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY. These old static definitions and the module parameter is being scheduled for removal for 2.6.29. Note that if you use this you won't make use of a world regulatory domain as its pointless. If you leave this option enabled and if CRDA is present and you use US or JP we will try to ask CRDA to update us a regulatory domain for us. Signed-off-by: NLuis R.

It is obviously good for userspace to know up front which interface modes a given piece of hardware might support (even if adding such an interface might fail later because of concurrency issues), so let's make cfg80211 aware of that. For good measure, disallow adding interfaces in all other modes so drivers don't forget to announce support for one mode when they add it.

Current setup with hal and NetworkManager will fail to work without newest hal version with this config option disabled. Although this will solve itself by time, at the moment it is dishonest to say that we don't know any software that uses it, if there are many many people relying on old hal versions.

This change adds a new cfg80211 command, NL80211_CMD_SET_BSS, to allow AP mode BSS parameters to be changed from user space (e.g., hostapd). The drivers using mac80211 are expected to be modified with separate changes to use the new BSS info parameter for short slot time in the bss_info_changed() handler.

Although I only tested similar code (I don't use any of this wireless code), the state maintainance between Netlink dump callback invocations seems wrong here and should lead to an endless loop. There are also other examples in the same file which might have the same problem. Perhaps someone can actually test this (or refute my logic). Take the simple example with only one element in the list (which should fit into the message): 1. invocation: Start: idx = 0, start = 0 Loop: condition (++idx < start) => (1 < 0) => false => no continue, fill one entry, exit loop, return skb->len > 0 2. invocation: Start: idx = 0, start = 1 Loop: condition (++idx < start) => (1 < 1) => false => no continue, fill the same entry again, exit loop, return skb->len > 0 3. invocation: Same as 2. invocation, endless invocation of callback. Also, iterations where the filling of an element fails should not be counted as completed, so idx should not be incremented in this case.

When the driver registers a IEEE80211_BAND_2GHZ band, it can either be 802.11b or 802.11g. But when 802.11b rates are registered "want" will be 3 (since 4 rates are being registered, and each of those 4 rates will decrease "want"). Since this is a correct situation, there is no need to trigger a WARN_ON() for this. Signed-off-by: NIvo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

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.
