mac80211: use synchronize_net() on key destroying

2012-09-06T15:29:23Z

__ieee80211_key_destroy() calls synchronize_rcu() in order to sync the tx path before destroying the key. However, synching the tx path can be done with synchronize_net() as well, which is usually faster (the timing might be important for roaming scenarios).

mac80211: remove ieee80211_key_removed

2012-07-09T12:49:15Z

This API call was intended to be used by drivers if they want to optimize key handling by removing one key when another is added. Remove it since no driver is using it. If needed, it can always be added back. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: clean up debugging

2012-06-24T09:32:29Z

There are a few things that make the logging and debugging in mac80211 less useful than it should be right now: * a lot of messages should be pr_info, not pr_debug * wholesale use of pr_debug makes it require *both* Kconfig and dynamic configuration * there are still a lot of ifdefs * the style is very inconsistent, sometimes the sdata->name is printed in front Clean up everything, introducing new macros and separating out the station MLME debugging into a new Kconfig symbol.

mac80211: clean up asm/unaligned.h inclusion

2012-02-27T19:06:32Z

Some files implicitly get this via mesh.h which itself doesn't need it, so move the inclusion into the right files. Some other files don't need it at all but include it, so remove it from there. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

mac80211: dont program keys for stations not uploaded

2012-02-06T19:48:24Z

If a station couldn't be uploaded to the driver but is still kept (only in IBSS mode) we still shouldn't try to program the keys for it into hardware; fix this bug by skipping the key upload in this case. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

mac80211: simplify AP_VLAN handling

2012-02-06T19:48:24Z

Setting keys and updating TKIP keys must use the BSS sdata (not AP_VLAN), so we translate. Move the translation into driver-ops wrappers instead of having it inline in the code to simplify the normal code flow. The same can be done for sta_add/remove which already does the translation in the wrapper. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

mac80211: support adding IV-room in the skb for CCMP keys

2011-11-08T20:54:27Z

Some cards can generate CCMP IVs in HW, but require the space for the IV to be pre-allocated in the frame at the correct offset. Add a key flag that allows us to achieve this. Signed-off-by: Arik Nemtsov Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

net: Add export.h for EXPORT_SYMBOL/THIS_MODULE to non-modules

2011-10-31T23:30:30Z

These files are non modular, but need to export symbols using the macros now living in export.h -- call out the include so that things won't break when we remove the implicit presence of module.h from everywhere. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker

mac80211: optimise station flags

2011-09-30T19:57:19Z

The flaglock in struct sta_info has long been something that I wanted to get rid of, this finally does the conversion to atomic bitops. The conversion itself is straight-forward in most places, a few things needed to change a bit since we can no longer use multiple bits at the same time. On x86-64, this is a fairly significant code size reduction: text data bss dec hex 427861 23648 1008 452517 6e7a5 before 425383 23648 976 450007 6ddd7 after Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W.
