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>

If you set a fixed BSSID and channel it's not necessary to scan for neighbors to merge, because you really don't want to merge with it. 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>

This patch adds a sub-routine that parses the default country eeprom entry and forwards the obtained Alpha2 identifier to the regulatory sub-system. Note: I dropped the p54 specific regdomain<->alpha2 conversion code for now. But it will be added as soon as there's the common library function is ready.

This patch will prevent anyone to upload a firmware which was not designed for his device. There's still a catch: There is no easy way to detect if a firmware is for PCI or for USB (1st Gen), because they all share the same LM86 identifier.

power_level in ieee80211_conf is being used for more than one purpose. It being used as user configured power limit and the final power limit given to the driver. By doing so, except very first time, the tx power limit is taken from min(chan->max_power, local->hw.conf.power_level) which is not what we want. This patch defines a new memeber in ieee80211_conf which is meant only for user configured power limit. Signed-off-by: Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan <vasanth@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

When we try to change the channel in ath9k its because either the configuration indicates we *have* changed channels or HT configuration has changed. In both cases we want to do a reset. Either way mac80211 will inform us when we want to actually change the channel so trust those calls. Although in the patch it may seem as I am doing more code changes I am not, all I am doing is removing the initial branch conditional and shifting the code to the left. Signed-off-by: Luis R.

The only left users are for timing for ACK timeout, slotime and CTS timeout. We currently use an array CLOCK_RATE to keep these values per mode and since as only will use A and G we can depend on the band to get the appropriate values. We note that we should be using a different clock rate value for CCK, we can do this in separate patch, currently this is being disregarded and should only affect when we want to change the default ACK/CTS timeout or slot time and stuck with using using 802.11b.

The NOISE_FLOOR array we have is mode specific, and the only possible indexed values are A, B and G. The mode routine only can return G or A, so this is band specific. Then since the values for A and G (5ghz or 2ghz) are the same (-96) we simply remove the array and use a static value. If we later determine we want to use special values for HT configurations we can use the new mac80211 conf_is_ht*() helpers. Signed-off-by: Luis R.

ath9k_hw_iscal_supported() just needs to be aware of your band and if HT20 is being used so lets abandon our internal channel, HT appended values and internal mode values and use ieee80211_conf which already carries this information.

Lets make the request to get the current noise floor threshold from the EEPROM band specific as it is band specific, not mode specific.

We don't need to use our own mode for setting the the routine tries to do, in fact lets remove ath_chan2mode() now as we can simply use the currently set band and the HT configuration provided by mac80211 through the ieee80211_conf. This works on changing channels as well as the internal ath9k_channel we use is based on the ieee80211_channel in the config. Signed-off-by: Luis R.
