mac80211: allow to transmit A-MSDU within A-MPDU

2015-09-22T13:21:23+00:00

Advertise the capability to send A-MSDU within A-MPDU in the AddBA request sent by mac80211. Let the driver know about the peer's capabilities. Signed-off-by: Emmanuel Grumbach Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

rt2800: fix assigning same WCID for different stations

2015-06-15T10:13:50+00:00

On some hardware reading WCID entries table results getting 0xff numbers, no matter of value written there before. This cause assigning the same WCID for different stations and makes not possible to connect to more than one station. Signed-off-by: Stanislaw Gruszka Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo

mac80211: convert HW flags to unsigned long bitmap

2015-06-10T14:05:36+00:00

As we're running out of hardware capability flags pretty quickly, convert them to use the regular test_bit() style unsigned long bitmaps. This introduces a number of helper functions/macros to set and to test the bits, along with new debugfs code. The occurrences of an explicit __clear_bit() are intentional, the drivers were never supposed to change their supported bits on the fly. We should investigate changing this to be a per-frame flag.

mac80211: extend get_tkip_seq to all keys

2015-05-06T11:29:59+00:00

Extend the function to read the TKIP IV32/IV16 to read the IV/PN for all ciphers in order to allow drivers with full hardware crypto to properly support this. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: remove support for IFF_PROMISC

2015-04-24T09:14:13+00:00

This support is essentially useless as typically networks are encrypted, frames will be filtered by hardware, and rate scaling will be done with the intended recipient in mind. For real monitoring of the network, the monitor mode support should be used instead. Removing it removes a lot of corner cases. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

cfg80211: remove "channel" from survey names

2015-01-08T14:27:52+00:00

All of the survey data is (currently) per channel anyway, so having the word "channel" in the name does nothing. In the next patch I'll introduce global data to the survey, where the word "channel" is actually confusing. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

rt2800: calculate tx power temperature compensation on selected chips

2014-12-01T20:57:20+00:00

Currently implemented temperature compensation is only valid on some of supported chips. Other chips do not need temperature compensation or need different way to do this (not yet implemented in the rt2800 driver). Trying to do run rt2800_get_gain_calibration_delta() when this is not appropriate on particular chip gives bogus result of TX power and can make connection unstable. This is follow up to commit 8c8d2017ba25c510ddf093419048460db1109bc4 "rt2800: fix RT5390 & RT3290 TX power settings regression". On that commit we avoid setting BBP_R1 register, but the real problem is wrong temperature compensation calculation.
