Implement Broadcast/Multicast Integrity Protocol for management frame protection. This patch adds the needed definitions for the new information element (MMIE) and implementation for the new "encryption" type (though, BIP is actually not encrypting data, it provides only integrity protection). These routines will be used by a follow-on patch that enables BIP for multicast/broadcast robust management frames.

We add support for multiple drivers to provide a regulatory_hint() on a system by adding a wiphy specific regulatory domain cache. This allows drivers to keep around cache their own regulatory domain structure queried from CRDA. We handle conflicts by intersecting multiple regulatory domains, each driver will stick to its own regulatory domain though unless a country IE has been received and processed. If the user already requested a regulatory domain and a driver requests the same regulatory domain then simply copy to the driver's regd the same regulatory domain and do not call CRDA, do not collect $200.

This modifies hardware flags for powersave to support three different flags: * IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS - indicates general PS support * IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK - indicates nullfunc sending in software * IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS - indicates dynamic PS on the device It also adds documentation for all this which explains how to set the various flags. Additionally, it fixes a few things: * a spot where && was used to test flags * enable CONF_PS only when associated again Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

The channel_type really doesn't need to be the only member in a new structure, so remove the struct. Additionally, remove the _CONF_CHANGE_HT flag and use _CONF_CHANGE_CHANNEL when the channel type changes, since that's enough of a change to require reprogramming the hardware anyway.

Not all drivers are capable of passing properly aligned frames, in particular with mesh networking no hardware will support completely aligning it correctly. This patch adds code to align the data payload to a 4-byte boundary in memory for those platforms that require this, or when CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUG_PACKET_ALIGNMENT is set.

I missed this during review of "mac80211: Fix tx power setting", the user_power_level shouldn't be available to the driver but rather be an internal value used to calculate the value for the driver.

* Sync qcu.c with legacy-hal * Add some more comments * Set QCU mask to save power (QCU mask controls which QCUs are attached to each DCU, we do a 1:1 mapping) TODO: Use max QCU from EEPROM, further sync with legacy-hal and sam's hal and a few more minor fixes. I think after this we are ready to implement WME on the driver part. Anyone interested ? Signed-Off-by: Nick Kossifidis <mickflemm@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

If you set a fixed BSSID manually, you never want that the driver change it back, or your ad-hoc mesh network will break into peaces. So don't do it. Signed-off-by: Alina Friedrichsen <x-alina@gmx.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

Okay, here is the first of the five patches. After applying all of them you should be able to build/join huge city mesh networks (e.g. with the OLSR protocol) with the most of the mac80211 wireless drivers by setting a fixed BSSID in the ad hoc mode. (If you found no other bug/problem.) This was not specified in the original standard, but is a widely used de facto standard. The first patch now completely disallow to set multicast MAC addresses as BSSID. The behavior before was really strange. Signed-off-by: Alina Friedrichsen <x-alina@gmx.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

As discussed on linux-wireless rt2x00 does not offer a true RFKILL key, for that reason RFKILL support should be entirely removed. The key which is attached to the hardware should be treated as normal input device instead. Implement input_poll_dev support to poll the device frequently. When the key status has changed report it as a SW event. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
