2009-02-27iwlwifi: Fix and rework Kconfig fileReinette Chatre
Fixes: - iwlwifi is an optional driver and should thus not default to 'y'. - 3945 now depends on IWLCORE. Rework: - There is not a case when IWLCORE should not be selected. At the same time the driver does not use IWLWIFI or IWLCORE. We can just merge the usage of these two. With IWLWIFI being the driver name we proceed to use just it and replace instances of IWLCORE with it. The module name does not change and is still iwlcore. - Both IWLAGN and IWL3945 are selecting FW_LOADER, we can thus just move this up to one select when IWLWIFI is selected. - IWL5000 now supports Intel Wireless Wifi 100, 6000, and 6050 series. - Now that 3945 depends on IWLWIFI we can also indicate its dependency on MAC80211_LEDS and LEDS_CLASS at this level. - IWLAGN_LEDS is not used by driver - remove it. - IWLAGN_SPECTRUM_MEASUREMENT actually depends on IWLWIFI as it forms part of iwlcore module. Move this config up in Kconfig to reflect that and also change name to IWLWIFI_SPECTRUM_MEASUREMENT. - CONFIG_IWLWIFI_RFKILL is used by iwlagn as well as iwl3945, add text to description that indicates this. - CONFIG_IWL3945_RFKILL does not exist - remove usage from driver. - Add "iwlagn" to end of description of IWLAGN to help people understand what iwlagn means in rest of Kconfig text. - Add "iwl3945" to end of description of IWL3945 to help people understand what iwlagn means in rest of Kconfig text. - Change IWLWIFI_DEBUGFS description to indicate that only iwlagn supports it (for now).

2009-02-27mac80211: Extend the rate control API with an update callbackSujith
The AP can switch dynamically between 20/40 Mhz channel width, in which case we switch the local operating channel, but the rate control algorithm is not notified. This patch adds a new callback to indicate such changes to the RC algorithm.

2009-02-27mac80211: split IBSS/managed codeJohannes Berg
This patch splits out the ibss code and data from managed (station) mode. The reason to do this is to better separate the state machines, and have the code be contained better so it gets easier to determine what exactly a given change will affect, that in turn makes it easier to understand. This is quite some churn, especially because I split sdata->u.sta into sdata->u.mgd and sdata->u.ibss, but I think it's easier to maintain that way. I've also shuffled around some code -- null function sending is only applicable to managed interfaces so put that into that file, some other functions are needed from various places so put them into util, and also rearranged the prototypes in ieee80211_i.h accordingly.

2009-02-27mac80211: fix aggregation for hardware with ampdu queuesJohannes Berg
Hardware with AMPDU queues currently has broken aggregation. This patch fixes it by making all A-MPDUs go over the regular AC queues, but keeping track of the hardware queues in mac80211. As a first rough version, it actually stops the AC queue for extended periods of time, which can be removed by adding buffering internal to mac80211, but is currently not a huge problem because people rarely use multiple TIDs that are in the same AC (and iwlwifi currently doesn't operate as AP). This is a short-term fix, my current medium-term plan, which I hope to execute soon as well, but am not sure can finish before .30, looks like this: 1) rework the internal queuing layer in mac80211 that we use for fragments if the driver stopped queue in the middle of a fragmented frame to be able to queue more frames at once (rather than just a single frame with its fragments) 2) instead of stopping the entire AC queue, queue up the frames in a per-station/per-TID queue during aggregation session initiation, when the session has come up take all those frames and put them onto the queue from 1) 3) push the ampdu queue layer abstraction this patch introduces in mac80211 into the driver, and remove the virtual queue stuff from mac80211 again This plan will probably also affect ath9k in that mac80211 queues the frames instead of passing them down, even when there are no ampdu queues.

mac80211 currently assumes init_net for all interfaces, so really will not cope well with network namespaces, at least at this time.

2009-02-24netlink: change nlmsg_notify() return value logicPablo Neira Ayuso
This patch changes the return value of nlmsg_notify() as follows: If NETLINK_BROADCAST_ERROR is set by any of the listeners and an error in the delivery happened, return the broadcast error; else if there are no listeners apart from the socket that requested a change with the echo flag, return the result of the unicast notification. Thus, with this patch, the unicast notification is handled in the same way of a broadcast listener that has set the NETLINK_BROADCAST_ERROR socket flag. This patch is useful in case that the caller of nlmsg_notify() wants to know the result of the delivery of a netlink notification (including the broadcast delivery) and take any action in case that the delivery failed. For example, ctnetlink can drop packets if the event delivery failed to provide reliable logging and state-synchronization at the cost of dropping packets. This patch also modifies the rtnetlink code to ignore the return value of rtnl_notify() in all callers. The function rtnl_notify() (before this patch) returned the error of the unicast notification which makes rtnl_set_sk_err() reports errors to all listeners. This is not of any help since the origin of the change (the socket that requested the echoing) notices the ENOBUFS error if the notification fails and should resync itself.
