2006-05-17[PATCH] bcm43xx: associate on 'ifconfig up'David Woodhouse
I still need this hack to work around the fact that softmac doesn't attempt to associate when we bring the device up... Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2006-05-05[PATCH] orinoco: don't put PCI resource data to the network devicePavel Roskin
The resource data in the network device is intended for ISA and other older busses, but not for PCI. Don't put PCI data there. Don't (ab)use the network device for keeping the IRQ number. Retire orinoco_pci_setup_netdev(), and print some minimal information to the kernel log instead, identifying the network device and the driver mostly to identify problems at startup. Scripts should rely on sysfs. Signed-off-by: Pavel Roskin <proski@gnu.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2006-05-05[PATCH] orinoco: simplify locking, fix error handling in PCMCIA resumePavel Roskin

2006-05-05[PATCH] orinoco: report more relevant data on startupPavel Roskin
Report only the first I/O window and IRQ, and also add the driver name. The second I/O window, Vpp and configuration index are not interesting to most users. They can be found by PCMCIA debug tools if needed. Signed-off-by: Pavel Roskin <proski@gnu.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2006-05-05[PATCH] orinoco: unregister network device before releasing PCMCIA resourcesPavel Roskin
Hardware resources should not be made available to other devices while the network device is still registered. Also remove the related debug statements. Signed-off-by: Pavel Roskin <proski@gnu.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2006-05-05[PATCH] wireless/airo: minimal WPA awarenessMichal Schmidt
Running Linux 2.6.17-rc3-mm1 which has this patch included I get this interesting message: airo(eth0): WPA unsupported (only firmware versions 5.30.17 and greater support WPA. Detected 5.30.17) airo_test_wpa_capable assumes that the softSubVer part of the firmware version number is coded in BCD. Apparently, that's not true.

2006-05-05[PATCH] bcm43xx: Fix access to non-existent PHY registersDavid Woodhouse
Fix the conditions under which we poke at the APHY registers in bcm43xx_phy_initg() to avoid a machine check on chips where they don't exist. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2006-05-05[PATCH] bcm43xx: Fix array overrun in bcm43xx_geo_initMichael Buesch
The problem here is that the bcm34xx driver and the ieee80211 stack do not agree on what channels are possible for 802.11a. The ieee80211 stack only wants channels between 34 and 165, while the bcm43xx driver accepts anything from 0 to 200. I made the bcm43xx driver comply with the ieee80211 stack expectations, by using the proper constants.

2006-05-05[PATCH] bcm43xx: check for valid MAC address in SPROMStefano Brivio
Check for valid MAC address in SPROM fields instead of relying on PHY type while setting the MAC address in the networking subsystem, as some devices have multiple PHYs. Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <stefano.brivio@polimi.it> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2006-04-24[PATCH] wireless/airo: minimal WPA awarenessDan Williams
airo cards with firmware versions of 5.30.17 and higher support WPA. This patch recognizes WPA-capable firmware versions and adds support for retrieving the WPA and RSN information elements from the card's scan results. The JOB and FLAG fields are now independent, since there was no space left in the FLAG field for FLAG_WPA_CAPABLE.

2006-04-24[PATCH] ipw2200: Enable rtap interface for RF promiscuous mode while associatedZhu Yi
With this patch, a new promiscuous mode is enabled. If the module is loaded with the rtap_iface=1 module parameter, two interfaces will be created (instead of just one). The second interface is prefixed 'rtap' and provides received 802.11 frames on the current channel to user space in a radiotap header format. Example usage: % modprobe ipw2200 rtap_iface=1 % iwconfig eth1 essid MyNetwork % dhcpcd eth1 % tcpdump -i rtap0 If you do not specify 'rtap_iface=1' then the rtap interface will not be created and you will need to turn it on via: % echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ipw2200/*/rtap_iface You can filter out what type of information is passed to user space via the rtap_filter sysfs entry. Currently you can tell the driver to transmit just the headers (which will provide the RADIOTAP and IEEE 802.11 header but not the payload), to filter based on frame control type (Management, Control, or Data), and whether to report transmitted frames, received frames, or both. The transmit frame reporting is based on a patch by Stefan Rompf. Filters can be get and set via a sysfs interface. For example, set the filter to only send headers (0x7), don't report Tx'd frames (0x10), and don't report data frames (0x100): % echo 0x117 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ipw2200/*/rtap_filter All your packets are belong to us: % tethereal -n -i rtap0 Signed-off-by: James Ketrenos <jketreno@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Zhu Yi <yi.zhu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
