ieee80211_hw_config can return an error when the hardware has rfkill enabled. A WARN_ON() is too harsh for this failure as it is a valid scenario. Only comment this warning as we would like to have it back when rfkill is integrated into mac80211. Also reintroduce propagation of error if ieee80211_hw_config fails in ieee80211_config_beacon. This patch partially reverts patch: 5f0387fc3337ca26f0745f945f550f0c3734960f "mac80211: clean up ieee80211_hw_config errors" Signed-off-by: NReinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

mac80211's ieee80211_register_hw() is often called within the probe path so it cannot assume the device's driver structure has been attached yet so to create a workqueue instead of using driver->name use the wiphy's phy%d name. The name doesn't really matter anyway. This should fix sporadic oopses found when we race to beat the driver pointer setting. Not even sure how this was working properly. http://www.kerneloops.org/search.php?search=ieee80211_register_hwSigned-off-by: NLuis R.

Remove the SSID from the driver API since now there is no driver that requires knowing the SSID and I think it's unlikely that any hardware design that does require the SSID will play well with mac80211. This also removes support for setting the SSID in master mode which will require a patch to hostapd to not try. Signed-off-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

Wireless HW without any dedicated queues for aggregation do not need the ampdu_queues mechanism present right now in mac80211. Since mac80211 is still incomplete wrt TX MQ changes, do not allow aggregation sessions for drivers that set ampdu_queues. This is only an interim hack until Intel fixes the requeue issue.

Long awaited, hard work. This patch totally cleans up the rate control API to remove the requirement to include internal headers outside of net/mac80211/. There's one internal use in the PID algorithm left for mesh networking, we'll have to figure out a way to clean that one up and decide how to do the peer link evaluation, possibly independent of the rate control algorithm or via new API. Additionally, ath9k is left using the cross-inclusion hack for now, we will add new API where necessary to make this work properly, but right now I'm not expert enough to do it. It's still off better than before. Signed-off-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: NJohn W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

There's no need to register the master netdev with cfg80211, in fact, this is quite dangerous and lead to having to add checks for the master interface all over the config handlers. This patch removes the "ieee80211_ptr" from the master iface in favour of having a small netdev_priv() associated with the master interface that stores the ieee80211_local pointer. Because of this, a lot of code in the configuration handlers can go away. To make this patch easier to verify I have also removed a number of wiphy_priv() calls in favour of getting the sdata first and then the local pointer from that.

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.

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>

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.

This patch replaces net_device arguments to mac80211 internal functions with ieee80211_{local,sub_if_data} as appropriate. It also does the same for many 802.11s mesh functions, and changes the mesh path table to be indexed on sub_if_data rather than net_device. If the mesh part needs to be a separate patch let me know, but since mesh uses a lot of mac80211 functions which were being converted anyway, the changes go hand-in-hand somewhat. This patch probably does not convert all the functions which could be converted, but it is a large chunk and followup patches will be provided.
