This is just calling another helper, so just use the other helper directly. This should make it clear that when do not find the next rate we stick to the current one.

This is not used, and when we need to get the lowest rate we should simply use mac80211's own rate_lowest_index(sband, sta).

This has no functional change and just cleans up the code to be more legible and removes a useless variable for Multi Rate Retry. For regular frames we use 2 retries for MRR segments [0-2]. For the last MRR segment [3] we use 4. MRR[0] = 2 MRR[1] = 2 MRR[2] = 2 MRR[3] = 4 Cc: Derek Smithies <derek@indranet.co.nz> Cc: Chittajit Mitra <Chittajit.Mitra@Atheros.com> Signed-off-by: Luis R.

When we're associated we should be able to send data to target sta. If we cannot we may be trying to use the incorrect band to talk to the sta. Lets catch any such cases, warn, and drop the frames to not invalidate assumptions being made on rate control algorithms when they have a valid sta to communicate with. Any such cases should be handled and fixed. Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <lrodriguez@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

In "mac80211: monitor the connection" I forgot to add code to cancel the new timers & work when the interface is brought down, which isn't a problem if you just bring it down, but _is_ a problem when you destroy the interface.

The result of container_of should not be NULL. In particular, in this case the argument to the enclosing function has passed though INIT_WORK, which dereferences it, implying that its container cannot be NULL. A simplified version of the semantic patch that makes this change is as follows: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // <smpl> @@ identifier fn,work,x,fld; type T; expression E1,E2; statement S; @@ static fn(struct work_struct *work) { ... when != work = E1 x = container_of(work,T,fld) ... when != x = E2 - if (x == NULL) S ... } // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Acked-by: Zhu Yi <yi.zhu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

This patch roughly implements xmit aggregation for ar9170-like device. Not all AP are compatible with the driver(and firmware) yet, so YMMV. A more refined code will definitely need the final HT specification to be available for the public, lots of firmware modification and possibly a redesigned driver just for good measure. Sadly, these conditions won't come true anytime soon... Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@web.de> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

The "what-was-I-thinking-if-anything" patch. Clearly, if cfg80211_send_disassoc() does wdev_lock() and then calls __cfg80211_send_disassoc(), the latter shouldn't lock again.

Implement set_tim callback for all rt2x00 drivers, this makes the device wake up powersaving stations properly while in AP mode. The only way to update the beacon is by simply calling mac80211 and requesting the new beacon. This means the set_tim() event is mostly the same as a beacon_done() event which was already defined in rt2x00lib.

When connected to a BSS, or joined to an IBSS, we'll want to know in userspace without using wireless extensions, so report the BSS status in the BSS list. Userspace can query the BSS list, display all the information and retrieve the station information as well. For example (from hwsim): $ iw dev wlan1 scan dump BSS 02:00:00:00:00:00 (on wlan1) -- associated freq: 2462 beacon interval: 100 capability: ESS ShortSlotTime (0x0401) signal: -50.00 dBm SSID: j Supported rates: 1.0* 2.0* 5.5* 11.0* 6.0 9.0 12.0 18.0 DS Paramater set: channel 11 ERP: <no flags> Extended supported rates: 24.0 36.0 48.0 54.0 Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

This variable is only used internally, _while_ connected. If we use it, the sequence # iwconfig wlan1 essid foo <connects> # iwconfig wlan1 essid "" <disconnects> # iwconfig will still display "foo" as the SSID afterwards, which is obviously quite bogus. Fix this by only displaying the wext SSID, if present. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

With the recent MLME rework I accidentally removed the connection monitoring code. In order to add it back, this patch will add new code to monitor both for beacon loss and for the connection actually working, with possibly separate triggers. When no unicast frames have been received from the AP for (currently) two seconds, we will send the AP a probe request. Also, when we don't see beacons from the AP for two seconds, we do the same (but those times need not be the same due to the way the code is now written). Additionally, clean up the parameters to the ieee80211_set_disassoc() function that I need here, those are all useless except sdata.

We have, sometimes, multiple things that want to run but don't have their own timer.

We need to provide a reasonable minimum that will result in a working setup if used. Set minimum to be 10 to provide for 4 standard TX queues + 1 command queue + 2 (unused) HCCA queues + 4 HT queues (one per AC). We allow the user to change the number of queues used via a module parameter and use this minimum value to check if it is valid. Without this patch a user can select a value for the number of queues that will result in a failing setup.

This reworks the key operation in cfg80211, and now only allows, from userspace, configuring keys (via nl80211) after the connection has been established (in managed mode), the IBSS been joined (in IBSS mode), at any time (in AP[_VLAN] modes) or never for all the other modes. In order to do shared key authentication correctly, it is now possible to give a WEP key to the AUTH command. To configure static WEP keys, these are given to the CONNECT or IBSS_JOIN command directly, for a userspace SME it is assumed it will configure it properly after the connection has been established. Since mac80211 used to check the default key in IBSS mode to see whether or not the network is protected, it needs an update in that area, as well as an update to make use of the WEP key passed to auth() for shared key authentication.

We will soon want to nest key attributes into some new attribute for configuring static WEP keys at connect() and ibss_join() time, so we need nested attributes for that. However, key attributes right now are 'global'. This patch thus introduces new nested attributes for the key settings and functions for parsing them.
