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: 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

rt2x00: change REGISTER_BUSY_COUNT for USB

2014-12-01T20:57:21+00:00

Because of delays on USB we do not have to iterate so many times on USB hardware when waiting for H/W register become valid. Signed-off-by: Stanislaw Gruszka Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

rt2x00: restore original beaconing state

2014-04-22T19:06:31+00:00

After changing local per interface beacon setting restore original global beaconing state. Signed-off-by: Stanislaw Gruszka Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

wireless: delete non-required instances of include

2014-01-03T20:37:01+00:00

None of these files are actually using any __init type directives and hence don't need to include . Most are just a left over from __devinit and __cpuinit removal, or simply due to code getting copied from one driver to the next.

rt2x00: Fix FSF address in file headers

2013-12-11T15:56:19+00:00

Several files refer to an old address for the Free Software Foundation in the file header comment. Resolve by replacing the address with the URL so that we do not have to keep updating the header comments anytime the address changes.

rt2x00: rt73usb: use rt2x00_has_cap_* helpers

2013-10-14T17:39:58+00:00

Use the appropriate helper functions instead of directly accessing the rt2x00dev->cap_flags field to check device capability flags. This improves readability of the code a bit. Compile tested only. Signed-off-by: Gabor Juhos Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

rt2x00: read 5GHz TX power values from the correct offset

2013-06-24T18:44:25+00:00

The current code uses the same index value both for the channel information array and for the TX power table. The index starts from 14, however the index of the TX power table must start from zero. Fix it, in order to get the correct TX power value for a given channel. The changes in rt61pci.c and rt73usb.c are compile tested only.

rt2x00: move extra_tx_headroom field from rt2x00_ops to rt2x00_dev

2013-06-12T19:02:15+00:00

The extra_tx_headroom field of struct rt2x00_ops indicates the extra TX headroom size required for a given device. This data is redundant, the value can be computed from the desc_size and winfo_size fields of the TX queues. Move the extra_tx_headroom field to struct rt2x00_dev, compute its value in the probe routine and use the cached value in the rest of the code.
