2011-04-07zd1211rw: rename CR* macros to ZD_CR*Jussi Kivilinna
With compat-wireless CR* macros in zd_usb.h conflict with CR macros in include/asm-generic/termbits.h. So rename CR* macros to ZD_CR*. Conversion was done with using sed and then 'over 80 character line' checkpatch.pl warnings and comment indents were fixed.

2007-07-10[PATCH] zd1211rw: Defer firmware load until first ifupDaniel Drake
While playing with the firmware a while back, I discovered a way to access the device's entire address space before the firmware has been loaded. Previously we were loading the firmware early on (during probe) so that we could read the MAC address from the EEPROM and register a netdevice. Now that we can read the EEPROM without having firmware, we can defer firmware loading until later while still reading the MAC address early on. This has the advantage that zd1211rw can now be built into the kernel -- previously if this was the case, zd1211rw would be loaded before the filesystem is available and firmware loading would fail. Firmware load and other device initialization operations now happen the first time the interface is brought up. Some architectural changes were needed: handling of the is_zd1211b flag was moved into the zd_usb structure, MAC address handling was obviously changed, and a preinit_hw stage was added (the order is now: init, preinit_hw, init_hw).

2007-07-08[PATCH] zd1211rw: Make CCK gain patching conditional on RF typeDaniel Drake
The vendor driver code suggests that CR47 patching happens on every channel change for every RF (depending on bit 8 in POD). Due to a bug in their driver (upper bits of RF_Mode get zeroed out, then are examined for 1s when setting some other flags), this isn't actually what happens, and their generic CCK patching routine never takes effect. Some of their RF configurations do include explicit (duplicated) code for CR47 patching though. This patch makes zd1211rw match that behaviour.

2007-04-28[PATCH] zd1211rw: Add AL7230B RF support for ZD1211BDaniel Drake
This patch adds support for some new ZD1211B devices which ship with the AL7230B RF. Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2007-04-28[PATCH] zd1211rw: rework band edge patchingDaniel Drake
This change allows RF drivers to provide their own 6M band edge patching implementation, while providing a generic implementation shared by most currently supported RF's. The upcoming ZD1211B/AL7230B code will use this to define its own patching function, which is different from the other RF configurations.

2006-08-14[PATCH] zd1211rw: Support AL7230B RFDaniel Drake
This patch adds support for another Airoha RF which is present in some ZD1211 adapters. This RF supports 802.11a as well as 802.11b/g, but 802.11a connectivity is not yet supported by this driver. Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
