mac80211's software scan implementation uses a passive dwell time of (HZ / 5) which means we stay 200ms on each passive channel. Compared to iwlwifi's hw scan and the old ipw* drivers which use values around 120ms this is quite long. Reducing the passive dwell time from 200ms to 125ms should save us something around a second on cards capable of 11a and we should still be able to catch beacons from most access points (assuming a ~100ms beacon interval).

Don't allow users to open debugfs files, because it can cause oopses. When a user opens some file, driver unlinks it and frees the corresponding structure, we will dereference freed memory. Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby <jirislaby@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

The patch simplifies calibration map by combining the init_calib_map and periodic_calib_map into one calib_map in struct iwm_conf. Now the initial calibration map is stored in the lower 16 bits of calib_map and the periodic calibration map is stored in the higher 16 bits.

The patch uses netif_rx_ni() over netif_rx() to post buffers to upper network code because it is always scheduled in a workqueue.

We were not differentiating quality between legacy and HT configurations. We change this to consider the differences. New theory for reporting quality: At a hardware RSSI of 45 you will be able to use MCS 7 reliably. At a hardware RSSI of 45 you will be able to use MCS 15 reliably. At a hardware RSSI of 35 you should be able use 54 Mbps reliably. MCS 7 is the highets MCS index usable by a 1-stream device. MCS 15 is the highest MCS index usable by a 2-stream device. All ath9k devices are either 1-stream or 2-stream. How many bars you see is derived from the qual reporting. A more elaborate scheme can be used here but it requires tables of SNR/throughput for each possible mode used. For the MCS table you can refer to the wireless wiki: http://wireless.kernel.org/en/developers/Documentation/ieee80211/802.11n This should fix this bug report: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13537 Cc: Janath.Peiris@atheros.com Cc: Matt.Smith@atheros.com Signed-off-by: Luis R.

The SDIO driver sets the surpriseremoved flag before calling lbs_remove_card. With IEEE PS enabled, lbs_remove_card must issue a command to exit IEEE PS mode, however with that flag set the command path is blocked and the card is never taken out of IEEE PS mode. This step is required to ensure that the driver can be reloaded. This patch moves the setting of surpriseremoved after lbs_remove_card is called. Tested with V9 firmware by ensuring that IEEE PS is disabled when the driver is removed. Reloading the driver is not fully tested due to a separate issue with module reload in the SDIO driver, however this patch at least leaves the card in a better state when we bring the driver down.

The SPI driver does a couple of card cleanup steps in the wrong order on module removal. If IEEE PS is enabled, this results in the card being left in IEEE PS mode and subsequent failures to reload the module. The problem is that the surpriseremoved flag is set before calling lbs_remove_card, but that function needs to issue a command to exit IEEE PS mode (the flag blocks the command path). In addition, lbs_stop_card should be called first because it clears out any pending commands. Tested on a GSPI device with V9 firmware by confirming that we can reload the module with or without IEEE PS enabled. Also fix a warning from the wrong uint format in a printk. V2: use z modifier, thanks Sebastian. Signed-off-by: Andrey Yurovsky <andrey@cozybit.com> Acked-by: Dan Williams <dcbw@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

Libertas currently maintains a copy of the WPA unicast and group keys when using WPA or WPA2. This copy is checked when deciding whether or not to return to sleep in IEEE PS mode but the actual copying back to priv was omitted, which breaks IEEE PS mode with WPA/WPA2 when one issues commands that require temporarily keeping the device awake. This patch introduces the omitted copy-back of the keys so that IEEE PS functions correctly in WPA/WPA2 mode. Thanks to Dan Williams for clearing up the issue. V2: fix typo. Also, this has been tested on GSPI and SDIO with V9 firmware. Signed-off-by: Andrey Yurovsky <andrey@cozybit.com> Acked-by: Dan Williams <dcbw@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

In this case, only one cipher makes sense, unlike for connect() where it may be possible to have the card or driver select. No changes to mac80211 due to the way the structs are laid out -- but the loop in net/mac80211/cfg.c will degrade to just zero or one passes.

In order to avoid problems with BSS structs going away while they're in use, I've long wanted to make cfg80211 keep track of them. Without the SME, that wasn't doable but now that we have the SME we can do this too. It can keep track of up to four separate authentications and one association, regardless of whether it's controlled by the cfg80211 SME or the userspace SME.
