This introduces a new NL80211_CMD_TESTMODE for testing and calibration use with nl80211. There's no multiplexing like like iwpriv had, and the command is not available by default, it needs to be explicitly enabled in Kconfig and shouldn't be enabled in most kernels. The command requires a wiphy index or interface index to identify the device to operate on, and the new TESTDATA attribute. There also is API for sending replies to the command, and testmode multicast messages (on a testmode multicast group). I've also updated mac80211 to be able to pass through the command to the driver, since it itself doesn't implement the testmode command. Additionally, to give people an idea of how to use the command, I've added a little code to hwsim that makes use of the new command to set the powersave mode, this is currently done via debugfs and should remain there, and the testmode command only serves as an example of how to use this best -- with nested netlink attributes in the TESTDATA attribute. A hwsim testmode tool can be found at http://git.sipsolutions.net/hwsim.git/. This tool is BSD licensed so people can easily use it as a basis for their own internal fabrication and validation tools.

When the auth algorithm is rejected, but we don't have another one to try, we will eventually retry but that isn't useful -- we'll then do it again and again until we eventually give up. Instead, we should let the SME know and go into disabled state. The same applies for situations where the AP rejects with any other status code. Additionally, when trying the next auth algorithm, we should reset the auth_tries so that just a single lost frame doesn't lead to us giving up on the third auth algorithm. Signed-off-by:

This variable isn't necessary -- the wext code keeps track of the BSSID itself, and otherwise we have current_bss. Signed-off-by:

Instead of hardcoding GFP_ATOMIC everywhere, add a new function parameter that gets the flags from the caller. Obviously then I need to update all callers (all of them in mac80211), and it turns out that now it's ok to use GFP_KERNEL in almost all places. Signed-off-by:

Move a break statement to the correct place _after_ the #endif, otherwise w/o WIRELESS_EXT things break badly. Also, while touching this code, do a cleanup and assign dev->ieee80211_ptr to a new variable. Signed-off-by:

The way I initially thought we could do wireless extensions is by making all the compat code in cfg80211 be independent of CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT, but this is turning out to not be feasible. Therefore, fix the Kconfig help text and make the option default to yes, so people won't get a nasty surprise when mac80211 will get rid of its 'select WIRELESS_EXT' any time now. Signed-off-by:

The key todo lock can be taken from different locks that require it to be _bh to avoid lock inversion due to (soft)irqs. This should fix the two problems reported by Bob and Gabor: http://mid.gmane.org/20090619113049.GB18956@hash.localnet http://mid.gmane.org/4A3FA376.8020307@openwrt.orgSigned-off-by:

Currently, wext drivers cannot return NULL for stats even though that would make the ioctl return -EOPNOTSUPP because that would mean they are no longer listed in /proc/net/wireless. This patch changes the wext core's behaviour to list them if they have any wireless_handlers, but only show their stats when available, so that drivers can start returning NULL if stats are currently not available, reducing confusion for e.g. IBSS.

This removes the custom scan cache used by orinoco. We also have to avoid calling cfg80211_scan_done from the hard interrupt, so we offload the entirety of scan processing to a workqueue. This may behave strangely if you start scanning just prior to suspending... Signed-off-by:

Each device does almost exactly the same things on suspend and resume when upping and downing the interface. So move this logic into a common routine. Signed-off-by:

With the move to cfg80211 it's nice to keep the hardware operations distinct from the interface, even though we can only support a single interface. This also means the driver resembles other cfg80211 drivers. Signed-off-by:

The firmware download code has been in a couple of releases, without any significant issues reported in this code. Convert to use pr_debug, so the messages can be recoverred by defining DEBUG. Signed-off-by:

Initialise and register a wiphy. Store the orinoco_private structure in the new wiphy, and use the net_device private area to store the wireless_dev. This results in a change to the way we navigate from a net_device to the driver private orinoco_private, which we encapsulate in the inline function ndev_priv. Most of the remaining calls to netdev_priv are thus replaced by ndev_priv. We can immediately rely on cfg80211 to handle SIOCGIWNAME, so orinoco_ioctl_getname is removed. Signed-off-by:

hw.h does not include hermes.h, and none of the other functions requires types from that file. Also hermes_t is a (discouraged) typedef so we can't add a forward declaration. Therefore change this function to use orinoco_private. Signed-off-by:

Move away from using net_device as the main structure in orinoco function calls. Use orinoco_private instead. This makes more sense when we move to cfg80211, and we get wiphys as well. Signed-off-by:

This allows us to use determine_fw_capabilities, orinoco_hw_read_card_setting and orinoco_hw_allocate_fid prior to netdev registration. Since dev_dbg only prints if DEBUG is defined (or dynamic debug is enabled), move a couple of the more useful prints up to info. Signed-off-by:

It isn't very useful to scan the same channel more than once during a given scan, and some hardware (notably iwlwifi) can only scan a limited number of channels at a time. To prevent any overflows, simply disallow scanning any channel multiple times in a given scan command. This is a small change in the userspace ABI, but the only user, wpa_supplicant, never asks for a scan with the same frequency listed twice. Signed-off-by:
