mac80211: Generalize off-channel operation helpers from scan code

2009-12-28T21:55:01Z

The off-channel operations for going into power save mode (station mode) or stop beaconing (AP/IBSS) are not limited to scanning. Move these into a separate file and allow them to be used for other purposes, too. Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

mac80211: generalise work handling

2009-12-28T21:54:55Z

In order to use auth/assoc for different purposes other than MLME, it needs to be split up. For other purposes, a generic work handling (potentially on another channel) will be useful. To achieve that, this patch moves much of the MLME work handling out of mlme into a new work API. The API can currently handle probing a specific AP, authentication and association. The MLME previously handled probe/authentication as one step and will continue to do so, but they are separate in the new work handling. Work items are RCU-managed to be able to check for existence of an item for a specific frame in the RX path, but they can be re-used which the MLME right now will do for its combined probe/auth step.

mac80211: move TX status handling

2009-11-18T22:09:27Z

It's enough code to have its own file, I think. Especially since I'm going to add to it. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

cfg80211: self-contained wext handling where possible

2009-07-29T19:46:20Z

Finally! This is what you've all been waiting for! This patch makes cfg80211 take care of wext emulation _completely_ by itself, drivers that don't need things cfg80211 doesn't do yet don't even need to be aware of wireless extensions. This means we can also clean up mac80211's and iwm's Kconfig and make it possible to build them w/o wext now! RIP wext. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

mac80211: driver operation debugging

2009-07-24T19:05:06Z

This makes mac80211 use the event tracing framework to log all operations as given to the driver. This will need to be extended with more information, but as a start it should be good. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

mac80211: split IBSS/managed code

2009-02-27T19:51:42Z

This patch splits out the ibss code and data from managed (station) mode. The reason to do this is to better separate the state machines, and have the code be contained better so it gets easier to determine what exactly a given change will affect, that in turn makes it easier to understand. This is quite some churn, especially because I split sdata->u.sta into sdata->u.mgd and sdata->u.ibss, but I think it's easier to maintain that way. I've also shuffled around some code -- null function sending is only applicable to managed interfaces so put that into that file, some other functions are needed from various places so put them into util, and also rearranged the prototypes in ieee80211_i.h accordingly.

mac80211: restructure HT code

2009-02-13T18:45:34Z

Create two new files, agg-tx.c and agg-rx.c to make it clearer which code is common (ht.c) and which is specific (agg-*.c). Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

mac80211: add suspend/resume callbacks

2009-01-29T21:00:52Z

This patch introduces suspend and resume callbacks to mac80211, allowing mac80211 to quiesce its state (bringing down interfaces, removing keys, etc) in preparation for suspend. cfg80211 will call the suspend hook before the device suspend, and resume hook after the device resume.

mac80211: 802.11w - Add BIP (AES-128-CMAC)

2009-01-29T21:00:02Z

Implement Broadcast/Multicast Integrity Protocol for management frame protection. This patch adds the needed definitions for the new information element (MMIE) and implementation for the new "encryption" type (though, BIP is actually not encrypting data, it provides only integrity protection). These routines will be used by a follow-on patch that enables BIP for multicast/broadcast robust management frames. Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen Acked-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W.
