2008-12-05iwlwifi: rely on API version read from firmwareReinette Chatre
This adds the infrastructure to support older firmware APIs. The API version number is stored as part of the filename, we first try to load the most recent firmware and progressively try lower versions. The API version is also read from the firmware self and stored as part of the iwl_priv structure. Only firmware that is supported by driver will be loaded. The version number read from firmware is compared to supported versions in the driver not the API version used as part of filename. An example using this new infrastrucure: if (IWL_UCODE_API(priv->ucode_ver) >= 2) { Driver interacts with Firmware API version >= 2. } else { Driver interacts with Firmware API version 1. } Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2008-12-05iwlwifi: store ucode version numberChatre, Reinette
We store the ucode version number as part of iwl_priv/iwl3945_priv. This enables us to determine if particular ucode has support for features in order to have driver support more than one ucode API.

2008-12-05iwlwifi: disable AP modeJohannes Berg
iwlwifi does not support AP mode in any way. For one, it doesn't even buffer multicast/broadcast frames properly. We didn't allow zd1211rw AP mode to be enabled without this, so iwlwifi shouldn't be allowed to advertise AP mode either. It also doesn't work at all, it doesn't even answer to probe requests, I'm guessing the packet injection code was disabled again.

2008-12-05iwl3945: remove obsolete irq handlingHelmut Schaa
3945 hardware does not emit the interrupts CSR_INT_BIT_RF_KILL (rfkill toggled) and CSR_INT_BIT_CT_KILL (adapter too hot).

2008-11-25iwlwifi: enable custom fw regulatory solutionLuis R. Rodriguez
This enables the custom firmware regulatory solution option on iwlwifi drivers. These devices are uncapable of mapping their EEPROM regulatory domain to a specific ISO / IEC alpha2. Although the new 11n devices (>= iwl 5000) have only 3 regultaory SKUs -- MOW, ABG (no N) and BG -- the older devices (3945 and 4965) have a more complex SKU arrangement and therefore its not practical to move this to the driver.

2008-11-25iwlwifi: configure_filter rewriteZhu, Yi
The patch rewrites the mac80211 configure_filter handler to better mapping mac80211 filter flags to iwlwifi hardware filter flags. We now can support 5 mac80211 filter flags: FIF_OTHER_BSS, FIF_ALLMULTI, FIF_PROMISC_IN_BSS, FIF_BCN_PRBRESP_PROMISC and FIF_CONTROL. This patch also avoids reconnecting if the filter flags are changed when the STA is associated. Because rx_assoc is used when full rxon is not necessary.

2008-11-18mac80211: remove ieee80211_notify_macJohannes Berg
Before ieee80211_notify_mac() was added, it was presented with the use case of using it to tell mac80211 that the association may have been lost because the firmware crashed/reset. Since then, it has also been used by iwlwifi to (slightly) speed up re-association after resume, a workaround around the fact that mac80211 has no suspend/resume handling yet. It is also not used by any other drivers, so clearly it cannot be necessary for "good enough" suspend/resume. Unfortunately, the callback suffers from a severe problem: It only works for station mode. If suspend/resume happens while in IBSS or any other mode (but station), then the callback is pointless. Recently, it has created a number of locking issues, first because it required rtnl locking rather than RCU due to calling sleeping functions within the critical section, and now because it's called by iwlwifi from the mac80211 workqueue that may not use the rtnl because it is flushed under rtnl. (cf. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12046) I think, therefore, that we should take a step back, remove it entirely for now and add the small feature it provided properly. For suspend and resume we will need to introduce new hooks, and for the case where the firmware was reset the driver will probably simply just pretend it has done a suspend/resume cycle to get mac80211 to reprogram the hardware completely, not just try to connect to the current AP again in station mode. When doing so, we will need to take into account locking issues and possibly defer to schedule_work from within mac80211 for the resume operation, while the suspend operation must be done directly. Proper suspend/resume should also not necessarily try to reconnect to the current AP, the time spent in suspend may have been short enough to not be disconnected from the AP, mac80211 will detect that the AP went out of range quickly if it did, and if the association is lost then the AP will disassoc as soon as a data frame is sent. We might also take into account WWOL then, and have mac80211 program the hardware into such a mode where it is available and requested.

2008-11-10iwlwifi: fix priv->iw_mode setting when multiple vif are configuredZhu, Yi
mac80211 supports multiple virtual interfaces for a single device. For example, a managed interface (wlan0) and a monitor interface (mon0) can exist at the same time. Thus priv->iw_mode is not sufficient to track the wireless mode any more. The patch redefines priv->iw_mode as the first interface mode (the same as priv->vif->type if priv->vif != NULL). If another monitor type interface is created later, we don't change priv->iw_mode into monitor. This way, the original interface still works. The patch also requests mac80211 to do reassociation after we change the Rx filter flags.

2008-11-10mac80211: remove SSID driver codeJohannes Berg
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: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

2008-10-31iwl3945: iwl3945_mac_get_tsf() should not return zeroFabrice Bellet
The problem fixed here is that iwl3945_mac_get_tsf() returns 0, as the function is not implemented, and this is considered as a valid value by the mac layer in mlme.c:1605. The consequence is that the STA in ad-hoc mode is inserted/removed quite frequently due to IBSS merging.

2008-09-24mac80211: clean up rate control APIJohannes Berg
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.
