The beacon counters mac80211 keeps are only used for debugfs, unfortunately, they are incorrect for many hardware designs, namely any design that has a beacon template. Hence, remove the counters so we don't create the impression they are usable. This also allows removing the beacon MESH #ifdef again.

Currently, virtual interface pointers passed to drivers might be from monitor interfaces and as such completely uninitialised because we do not tell the driver about monitor interfaces when those are created. Instead of passing them, we should therefore indicate to the driver that there is no information; do that by passing a NULL value and adjust drivers to cope with it. As a result, some mac80211 API functions also need to cope with a NULL vif pointer so drivers can still call them unconditionally. Also, when injecting frames we really don't want to pass NULL all the time, if we know we are the source address of a frame and have a local interface for that address, we can to use that interface. This also helps with processing the frame correctly for that interface which will help the 802.11w implementation. It's not entirely correct for VLANs or WDS interfaces because there the MAC address isn't unique, but it's already a lot better than what we do now. Finally, when injecting without a matching local interface, don't assign sequence numbers at all. Signed-off-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

The sta_info->txrate_idx member isn't used by all RC algorithms in the way it was intended to be used, move it into those that require it (only PID) and keep track in the core code of which rate was last used for reporting to userspace and the mesh MLME.

This patch fixes mac80211 to not rely on the rate control algorithm to update sta->tx_retry_failed and sta->tx_retry_count (even if we don't currently use them), removes a number of completely unused values we don't even show in debugfs and changes the code in ieee80211_tx_status() to not look up the sta_info repeatedly. The only behaviour change here would be not calling the rate control function rate_control_tx_status() when no sta_info is found, but all rate control algorithms ignore such calls anyway.

The bridge_packets configuration really should be per virtual interface (theoretically per AP/VLAN, but this is much easier); there currently is no way to set it yet though. Also invert the option to "NO_BRIDGE_PACKETS" so the default is to bridge. While at it, also document the flags properly.

When we remove an interface, we can currently end up having a pointer to it left in local->scan_sdata after it has been set down, and then with a hardware scan the scan completion can try to access it which is a bug. Alternatively, a scan that started as a hardware scan may terminate as though it was a software scan, if the timing is just right. On SMP systems, software scan also has a similar problem, just canceling the delayed work and setting a flag isn't enough since it may be running concurrently; in this case we would also never restore state of other interfaces. This patch hopefully fixes the problems by always invoking ieee80211_scan_completed or requiring it to be invoked by the driver, I suspect the drivers that have ->hw_scan() are buggy. The bug will not manifest itself unless you remove the interface while hw-scanning which will also turn off the hw, and then add a new interface which will be unusable until you scan once.

When we stop an interface, the work on it may still be pending or running. We do cancel the timer, but we do not currently protect against the work struct. The race is very unlikely to hit -- it'll happen only when the driver is using mac80211's workqueue to run long-running tasks and the sta/mesh works are delayed for quite a bit. This patch fixes it by cancelling the work explicitly. Signed-off-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: NJohn W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

The timer restart is done wrongly, we shouldn't set the REQ_RUN bit when the scan has finished if it hadn't been set before the scan started. If the timer fires during the scan, it will set REQ_RUN and then we can run the work for it, if it didn't fire then we shouldn't run its work either.

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.

The aggregation handling isn't dependent on anything related to our STA-mode implementation, and doesn't need to depend on it for frame processing.

This reorders all frame sending functions to be at the top of the file.
