2009-05-06mac80211: clean up beacon interval settingsJohannes Berg
We currently have two beacon interval configuration knobs: hw.conf.beacon_int and vif.bss_info.beacon_int. This is rather confusing, even though the former is used when we beacon ourselves and the latter when we are associated to an AP. This just deprecates the hw.conf.beacon_int setting in favour of always using vif.bss_info.beacon_int. Since it touches all the beaconing IBSS code anyway, we can also add support for the cfg80211 IBSS beacon interval configuration easily. NOTE: The hw.conf.beacon_int setting is retained for now due to drivers still using it -- I couldn't untangle all drivers, some are updated in this patch.

2009-04-22iwlwifi: clean up unused NL80211_IFTYPE_MONITOR for Monitor modeWey-Yi Guy
This patch clean up the code for NL80211_IFTYPE_MONITOR mode, priv->iw_mode is set in add_interface, but add_interface is never called for monitor mode. The only way mac80211 informs us about monitor mode is through configuring filter; since iw_mode will never set to NL80211_IFTYPE_MONITOR, modify and remove all the code refer to NL80211_IFTYPE_MONITOR and replace with iwl_is_monitor_mode() function call.

2009-04-22iwlwifi: change check triggering device restart after rfkill changeReinette Chatre
The STATUS_ALIVE value cannot be used because it is cleared when interface is brought down and will not be set if rfkill is enabled when interface is started again. The interface can thus not be brought up if rfkill was enabled before stopping the interface and disabled after starting the interface. Change the test to use priv->is_open instead, this will be set when interface is started whether rfkill is enabled or not. Thanks to Helmut Schaa for the suggested fix.

2009-03-27mac80211/iwlwifi: move virtual A-MDPU queue bookkeeping to iwlwifiJohannes Berg
This patch removes all the virtual A-MPDU-queue bookkeeping from mac80211. Curiously, iwlwifi already does its own bookkeeping, so it doesn't require much changes except where it needs to handle starting and stopping the queues in mac80211. To handle the queue stop/wake properly, we rewrite the software queue number for aggregation frames and internally to iwlwifi keep track of the queues that map into the same AC queue, and only talk to mac80211 about the AC queue. The implementation requires calling two new functions, iwl_stop_queue and iwl_wake_queue instead of the mac80211 counterparts.

2009-02-09iwl3945: Getting rid of the *39_rxon iwl_priv fieldsSamuel Ortiz
The iwl_rxon_cmd is really just a iwl3945_rxon_cmd structure extension. So, we can use the *_rxon fields from iwl_priv instead of the 3945 specific ones (*39_rxon). We have to then be careful when submitting REPLY_RXON host commands, since the command length as to be set according to the HW. As another precaution the reserved4 and reserved5 fields are cleared before being sent to the 3945. With the *39_rxon removal, a lot of duplicated code can be removed from the 3945 code base.
