Realtek devices with designation RTL8188CE-VL have the so-called B-cut of the wireless chip. This patch adds the special programming needed by these devices. In addition, a variable that was static has been moved into the private data area as it is now needed in two different routines. This change also fixes a minor bug that would be present if a system had more than one RTL81{88,92}CE devices. Other drivers in the rtlwifi family had already made this change, thus the variable already exists in the private data structure.

Whenever WLAN receives scheduling msg from BT, it reduces tx power based on RSSI level. And then BT starts simultaneous transmission along with WLAN. Sometimes HW MAC compares tx power that is used prior to power reduction which is causing BT transmission to defer. Signed-off-by:

This driver is for the AR5523 chipset from Atheros. It was created in 2007 by Christoph Hellwig but it was never finished. I found it a couple of months ago and after some polishing it's working pretty fine. The driver was written with the FreeBSD driver (uath) as reference, which was written with the reverse-engineered windows driver as reference, hence the feature set is very limited. Station mode only, no HW crypto offload. Signed-off-by:

For AP feature the IEs are stored in global structure. For future functionality like P2P-GO it needs to be stored per virtual interface so better store it in the virtual interface structure. Reviewed-by:

The driver had a global constant ether_bcast, which was copied whenever a broadcast mac address was needed. This patch does a memset(dest, 0xFF, ETH_ALEN) instead and consequently removes the global ether_bcast. Reviewed-by:

The functions for communicating were given the net_device only because its private data contained struct brcmf_if object. However, not all firmware related interfaces will be associated with a net_device. To accomodate provisioning firmware for such interfaces the struct brcmf_if object will be passed to the fwil functions. Reviewed-by:

The firmware carries channel information in a different format as the provided ieee80211_channel structure. Conversion is needed when receiving requests from cfg80211 carrying ieee80211_channel structures. This patch adds a utility function to do that. Reviewed-by:

The firmware interface has functions to send bsscfg specific commands to the device. These functions currently have a bssidx parameter, but that same information is stored in struct brcmf_if, which is in the private data of the net_device parameter. Reviewed-by:

When the firmware notifies the driver about adding a new interface it also provides an index for the bss associated with this interface. This index will be needed for upcoming features like peer-to-peer. By adding this index in struct brcmf_if it is easy to obtain as this will be associated with the net_device private data.

carl9170_handle_mpdu is the final part of the rx path of the driver. It splits the raw data streams from the device into skb packets and passes them on to mac80211. As a result of continuous updates, it grew over the years when new code was added by the following commits: - report A-MPDU status - fix HT peer BA session corruption - A-MPDU frame type filter - ... This patch splits the routine into two stages. The first stage only deals with the details about extracting and verifying the data from the incoming stream. Whereas the second stage packs it into skbs and passes it on to mac80211. Reported-by:

This reverts commit 34202e28 We made "34202ee.." because we didn't support custom regulatory rules at that time. But now we use our own custom regulatory rules, so it needs to be changed back. Also, chan->max_power calculations in cfg80211 were broken. Hence we started using chan->max_reg_power. Now it has got fixed in following commit. commit 5e31fc08 Author: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@redhat.com> Date: Tue Jul 24 08:35:39 2012 +0200 wireless: reg: restore previous behaviour of chan->max_power calculations Hence we will use chan->max_power instead of chan->max_reg_power.
