mac80211: rename driver-trace file

2012-06-24T09:32:38+00:00

This file will contain more soon, so rename it to just trace. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: add command to get current rssi

2012-06-21T14:42:17+00:00

Get current rssi (in dBm) from the driver/FW. Instead of reporting the signal received in the last rx packet, which might be inaccurate if rx traffic is low and beacon filtering is enabled, get the signal from the driver/FW. Signed-off-by: Victor Goldenshtein Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: Framework to get wifi-driver stats via ethtool.

2012-05-09T01:53:51+00:00

This adds hooks to call into the driver to get additional stats for the ethtool API. Signed-off-by: Ben Greear Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

cfg80211/mac80211: enable proper device_set_wakeup_enable handling

2012-04-11T20:23:57+00:00

In WoWLAN, we only get the triggers when we actually get to suspend. As a consequence, drivers currently don't know that the device should enable wakeup. However, the device_set_wakeup_enable() API is intended to be called when the wakeup is enabled, not later when needed. Add a new set_wakeup() call to cfg80211 and mac80211 to allow drivers to properly call device_set_wakeup_enable. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

cfg80211/nl80211: clarify TX queue API

2012-04-10T18:54:09+00:00

With the plan to change mac80211's queue API to not map ACs to queues 1:1, it seems necessary to clarify some APIs that act on ACs rather than on queues to spell that out explicitly. Do this. Also verify that the AC number given is valid. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

mac80211: notify driver of rate control updates

2012-04-10T18:54:08+00:00

Devices that have internal rate control need to be notified when the bandwidth or SMPS state changes just like external rate control algorithms get a notification now. Add this notification and clarify the change bits while at it, the HT_CHANGED bit really meant only bandwidth changed. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

mac80211: rename bss_conf timestamp to last_tsf

2012-03-13T18:54:20+00:00

This value is not really very useful by itself, yet some drivers (including iwlwifi until I can figure out what it should do) use it. At least rename it to "last_tsf" to indicate the meaning and add a note that it may be really old. I suspect the value may become useful combined with the rx_status->mactime, but we don't (yet) store that value and pass it to the driver. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W.

mac80211: remove tx_sync

2012-03-12T18:19:38+00:00

When the station state callback was added, this was no longer needed in theory. With the iwlwifi changes to remove use of it landing, we can kill the entire tx-sync framework again, RIP. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W. Linville

mac80211: add sta_state callback

2012-02-06T19:48:24+00:00

(based on Eliad's patch) Add a callback to notify the low-level driver whenever the state of a station changes. The driver is only notified when the station is actually in the mac80211 hash table, not for pre-insert state transitions. To allow the driver to replace sta_add/remove calls with this, call extra transitions with the NOTEXIST state. This callback can fail, so we need to be careful in handling it when a station is inserted, particularly in the IBSS case where we still keep the station entry around for mac80211 purposes.

mac80211: remove tracing config symbol

2011-11-28T19:44:09+00:00

There's little point in this config symbol, if tracing is disabled the overhead is negligible and if you think it's too bad you can always turn off tracing completely. Also remove the part where we don't have sparse check the tracing code -- it seems that it can now deal with it (or the code changed). Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W. Linville
