2008-04-16libertas: convert libertas driver to use an event/cmdresp queueHolger Schurig
This patch (co-developed by Dan Williams and Holger Schurig) uses a kfifo object for events and a swapping buffer scheme for the command response to preserve the zero-copy semantics of the CF driver and keep memory usage low. The main thread should only ever touch the buffer indexed by priv->resp_idx, while the interface code is free to write to the second buffer, then swap priv->resp_idx under the driver spinlock. The firmware specs only permit one in-flight command, so there will only ever be one command response to process at a time.

2008-04-01libertas: convert sleep/wake config direct commandsHolger Schurig
Confirm sleep event: they come very regularly, eventually several times per second. Therefore we want to send the config command as fast as possible. The old code pre-set the command in priv->lbs_ps_confirm_sleep. However, the byte sequence to be sent to the hardware is the same for all interfaces. So this patch make this an extern structure, initialized at module load time. Config wake event: normal conversion to a direct command. However, I don't know how to trigger a "HOST AWAKE" event from the firmware, so this part is untested.

2008-03-25libertas: convert GET_LOG to a direct commandHolger Schurig
Now uses __lbs_cmd() to get the "log" (it's actually more a snapshot of various counters, not a sequential log). Besides the "mechanical" convertion the patch add the following logical changes: * Removes the priv->logmsg variable, it was only used in one place anyway, also don't blindly get the counters when associating. Getting the counters then the user asks via WEXT for them is good enought. * don't set wstats.discard.fragment with log.rxfrag, because the latter is a counter for successfully received packets, not for fragmented packets.

2008-03-25libertas: rename packetfilter to mac_controlHolger Schurig
The CMD_MAC_CONTROL can be used for other things than just filtering packets, e.g. to enable and disable WMM. This uses the same term mac_control for the define, the function and the shadow value in struct lbs_private.

2008-03-13libertas: implement SSID scanning for SIOCSIWSCANHolger Schurig
After my bit scan re-writing the SIOCSIWSCAN wext ioctl no longer supported scanning for a specific SSID. However, wpa_supplicant is a possible user of this ioctl, so here is code that add's this. While passing, removed even more of the debugfs-based scanning. You can (and should) the SIOCSIWSCAN to ask for scans, so there is no need for proprietary interfaces for scanning. And, besides, the scan result couldn't be used further, e.g. not for associating.

2008-01-28libertas: stop using ieee80211 for radiotap deviceDavid Woodhouse
There seems to be no point in doing it as an ieee80211 device instead of a normal netdev, and when we override its ->priv and then call free_ieee80211() it has a distressing tendency to crash horribly.

2008-01-28libertas: kill internal tx queue for PS modeDavid Woodhouse
It was buggy as hell anyway, since it was just spewing packets at the device when it wasn't necessarily ready for them (in the USB case, while the URB was still busy). We could probably do with a better way of flushing packets to the device _immediately_, before we stick it back into sleep mode. But we can no longer just dequeue packets directly, it seems.

2007-10-10[PATCH] libertas: reorganize and simplify init sequenceDan Williams
This patch moves all firmware load responsibility into the interface-specific code and gets rid of the firmware pointer in the generic card structure. It also removes 3 fairly unecessary callbacks: hw_register_dev, hw_unregister_dev, and hw_prog_firmware. It also makes the init sequence from interface probe functions more logical, as there are paired add/remove and start/stop calls into generic libertas code. Because the USB driver code uses the same TX URB callback for both firmware upload (where the generic libertas structure isn't initialized yet) and for normal operation (where it is), some bits of USB code have to deal with 'priv' being NULL. All USB firmware upload bits have been changed to not require 'priv' at all, but simply the USB card structure. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dcbw@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2007-10-10[PATCH] libertas: monitor mode support for OLPC firmwareLuis Carlos Cobo
Driver support for the monitor mode support that will be available in the next OLPC 'bleeding edge' Marvell firmware release (most likely, 5.110.16.p2). To activate monitor mode, echo mode > /sys/class/net/{ethX,mshX}/device/libertas_rtap where mode is the hex mask that specifies which frames to sniff (in short, 0x1 for data, 0x2 for all management but beacons, 0x4 for beacons). Any non zero mode will activate the monitor mode, inhibiting transmission in ethX and mshX interfaces and routing all the incoming traffic to a new rtapX interface that will output the packets in 802.11+radiotap headers format.
