2010-01-25iwlwifi: make broadcast station addition genericReinette Chatre
Add function pointer for broadcast station addition so that we can call it in from iwlcore at a later time. We only distinguish between iwlagn and iwl3945 broadcast station addition. For the iwl3945 station addition we add that function to iwlcore since that is where most station functionality resides, making it part of iwl3945 will require significant code reorganization that will dilute station management functionality. This seems to be an efficient solution. It may seem as though we are removing error checking when adding the 3945 broadcast station but this error checking was never really necessary since the function returns the station id and the broadcast station id is always set.

2009-11-18iwlwifi: handle unicast PS bufferingJohannes Berg
Using the new mac80211 functionality, this makes iwlwifi handle unicast PS buffering correctly. The device works like this: * when a station goes to sleep, the microcode notices this and marks the station as asleep * when the station is marked asleep, the microcode refuses to transmit to the station and rejects all frames queued to it with the failure status code TX_STATUS_FAIL_DEST_PS (a previous patch handled this correctly) * when we need to send frames to the station _although_ it is asleep, we need to tell the ucode how many, and this is asynchronous with sending so we cannot just send the frames, we need to wait for all other frames to be flushed, and then update the counter before sending out the poll response frames. This is handled partially in the driver and partially in mac80211. In order to do all this correctly, we need to * keep track of how many frames are pending for each associated client station (avoid doing it for other stations to avoid the atomic ops) * tell mac80211 that we driver-block the PS status while there are still frames pending on the queues, and once they are all rejected (due to the dest sta being in PS) unblock mac80211 Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2009-11-02iwlwifi: split adding broadcast station from othersReinette Chatre
In preparation for some station management changes we split the addition of a broadcast station from the other stations. Later we will rely on mac80211 to direct all management (addition/removal) of all stations except the broadcast station.

2008-06-30iwlwifi: better station table maintenanceEmmanuel Grumbach
This patch makes the station table maintenance safer. Two flags are maintained: 1) if station is present in driver 2) if station is present in uCode This will allow us in the future to deal with more stations than the firmware allows.

2008-05-21iwlwifi: clean up and bug fix for securityEmmanuel Grumbach
This patch cleans up code in security. 1) uses the new pointer to ieee80211_key_conf passed with the tx_control. 2) resolves bug reported by Mirco Tischler (sends ADD_STA in ASYNC mode) 3) resolves bug reported by Volker Braun regarding dynamic WEP 4) drops a WEP packet which has been garbaged by firmware. This can happen upon rekeying. Signed-off-by: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Tomas Winkler <tomas.winkler@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2008-05-07iwlwifi: HW crypto acceleration fixesEmmanuel Grumbach
This patch fixes several issues in security: 1) the uCode doesn't know about TKIP-MMIC failure, if uCode set RX_RES_STATUS_BAD_ICV_MIC, it means ICV failure: drop the packet silently. 2) do not allocate room in the key table of the uCode is the set_key call is a replacement of an old key 3) check the keyidx of the key in the uCode before removing it upon disable_key call Signed-off-by: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Tomas Winkler <tomas.winkler@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
