2008-02-01iwlwifi: fix sparse warning in iwl 3945Ron Rindjunsky
This patch fixes a sparse warning over iwl3945_add_radiotap function by turning it static Signed-off-by: Ron Rindjunsky <ron.rindjunsky@intel.com> Acked-by: Tomas Winkler <tomas.winkler@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2008-01-31iwlwifi: cleanup usage of inline functionsReinette Chatre
Be consistent when using inline functions. If the function only used once we move it to where it is used - no need for externs.

2008-01-28iwlwifi: delay firmware loading from pci_probe to network interface openZhu Yi
This patch moves the firmware loading (read firmware from disk and load it into the device SRAM) from pci_probe time to the first network interface open time. There are two reasons for doing this: 1. To support kernel buildin iwlwifi drivers. Because kernel initializes network devices subsystem before hard disk and SATA subsystem, it is impossible to get the firmware image from hard disk in the PCI probe handler. Thus delaying the firmware loading into the network interface open time is the way to go. Note, we only read the firmware image from hard disk the first time the interface is open. After this is succeeded, we cache the firmware image into the host memory. This is a performance gain when user open and close the interface multiple times and is necessary for device suspend and resume. 2. For better power saving. When the iwlwifi modules are loaded (or buildin the kernel) but the wireless network interface is not being used, it is a good practice the wireless device consumes as less power as possible. Unloading the firmware from the wireless device and unregister the driver's interrupt handler in the network interface close handler provides users a way to achieve this. User space network configuration tools (i.e NetworkManager) can also contribute here when it detects a wired cable is connected and close the wireless interface automatically. This patch also includes the pci_save/restore_state() fixed by Ian Schram upon the first version.

2008-01-28mac80211: add unified BSS configurationJohannes Berg
This patch (based on Ron Rindjunsky's) creates a framework for a unified way to pass BSS configuration to drivers that require the information, e.g. for implementing power save mode. This patch introduces new ieee80211_bss_conf structure that is passed to the driver via the new bss_info_changed() callback when the BSS configuration changes. This new BSS configuration infrastructure adds the following new features: * drivers are notified of their association AID * drivers are notified of association status and replaces the erp_ie_changed() callback. The patch also does the relevant driver updates for the latter change.

2008-01-28iwlwifi: proper monitor supportZhu Yi
This patch changes the iwlwifi driver to properly support monitor interfaces after the filter flags change. The patch is originally created by Johannes Berg for iwl4965.

2008-01-28iwlwifi: 802.11n add support to 8K A-MSDU Rx framesRon Rindjunsky
This patch give the iwlwifi the ability to support A-MSDU up to 8K Please notice - in order to work in 8K A-MSDU ucode support is needed, version 4.44.1.19 (soon to be published). 4K A-MSDU works in current ucode version as well.

2008-01-28iwlwifi: enhance WPA authenication stabilityMohamed Abbas
This patch enhanced WPA authenication stability by avoiding scan immediately followed by association. We don't do any scanning right after association in next several seconds.

2008-01-28iwlwifi: cleanup Kconfig and ifdefs to split 3945 and 4965Christoph Hellwig
Currently the iwl3945 & iwl4965 drivers share some common Kconfig symbols. This split it up into options for the individual drivers and gets rid of all the CONFIG_IWLWIFI cruft.

2008-01-28iwlwifi: keep 3945 and 4965 headers separateChristoph Hellwig
The iwl3945 and iwl4965 devices share some common structure, but with a lot of difference split all over. Currently the two drivers share a lot of headers and use ugly preprocessor magic to manage the difference. This patch keeps two entirely separate copies of the headers to get rid of these hacks an ease future development.
