This changes mac80211 to pass the burst time to conf_tx in txop units rather than 0.1msec units. 0.1msec units are only required by atheros hardware (according to current driver support), all other drivers do other calculations or require the txop value. Therefore, it results in fewer calculations and more precision if we just pass the txop value through to the driver.

We update the version stamp at this time to distinguish the in-kernel driver from the out of tree driver. The out of tree driver currently has version number 1.2.25, but the latest driver code can only be found in this in-kernel driver. Having a later version number will reduce confusion between the two versions as we transition from out of tree to in-kernel.

This patch creates new cfg80211 wiphy API for channel and bitrate registration and converts mac80211 and drivers to the new API. The old mac80211 API is completely ripped out. All drivers (except ath5k) are updated to the new API, in many cases I expect that optimisations can be done. Along with the regulatory code I've also ripped out the IEEE80211_HW_DEFAULT_REG_DOMAIN_CONFIGURED flag, I believe it to be unnecessary if the hardware simply gives us whatever channels it wants to support and we then enable/disable them as required, which is pretty much required for travelling. Additionally, the patch adds proper "basic" rate handling for STA mode interface, AP mode interface will have to have new API added to allow userspace to set the basic rate set, currently it'll be empty... However, the basic rate handling will need to be moved to the BSS conf stuff. I do expect there to be bugs in this, especially wrt. transmit power handling where I'm basically clueless about how it should work.

Value of count is used to decide when to replenish rx buffers. If it is equal or above 8 we replenish the buffers. Ensure there is no starvation by initializing count to 8 - thus forcing replenish at first iteration. This is helpful when rx receives batches of buffers smaller than 8.

The intention behind the original patch: "iwlwifi: fix possible read attempt on ucode that is not available" was to exit before any state is changed. Due to its submission directly to 2.6.24 it was not clear how this relates to the latest iwlwifi work. This patch does exactly the same as the previous patch, just earlier to prevent any state from being changed if there is an error.

The problem is that priv->assoc_id is set when assoc. resp frame is received. But, when it is set, LQ cmd is still not sent to the uCode, it is done from bg_post_assoc, which is called through a workqueue. On the other hand, when a tx arrives at the moment when this flag is set, but LQ is still not sent, the if condition in tx_skb will not hold and the frame will not be dropped. Thus, it will be sent through which is still not in the sta table in the uCoded.

The geo/channel information is obtained from the EEPROM, which is read during probe. We can thus set up channel information at this time. This helps us to support ioctl commands that rely on this before the interface is brought up. Clearly matches _init_channel_map with _free_channel_map and _init_geos with _free_geos to ensure functions calling these routines can also call their cleanup routines. Fixes a few bugs: - if channel information is not available when ioctl commands are issued then we get a NULL pointer oops. Having channel information set up during probe we can deal with ioctl commands without requiring interface to be brought up. This fixes bug: http://www.bughost.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1552 - Fix potential problem if user triggers probe/remove/probe sequence. The value of priv->channel_count was used to determine if channel map is set up. This value was never reset when channel map was removed. - Fix memory leak: priv->modes need to be freed when device removed.

After we delay device initialization until interface up, there are more conditions for the hardware rf_kill switch states during suspend and resume. For example, before suspend we can have interface up or down, rf_kill enable or disable; before resume we can have rf_kill enable or disable. So there are totally 2^3 = 8 conditions to handle. This patch addressed this problem and makes sure every condition works correctly. This patch also merges the device suspend and resume handlers with the mac_start and mac_stop code since they are basically doing the same thing.

This patch moves the firmware loading (read firmware from disk and load it into the device SRAM) from pci_probe time to the first network interface open time. There are two reasons for doing this: 1. To support kernel buildin iwlwifi drivers. Because kernel initializes network devices subsystem before hard disk and SATA subsystem, it is impossible to get the firmware image from hard disk in the PCI probe handler. Thus delaying the firmware loading into the network interface open time is the way to go. Note, we only read the firmware image from hard disk the first time the interface is open. After this is succeeded, we cache the firmware image into the host memory. This is a performance gain when user open and close the interface multiple times and is necessary for device suspend and resume. 2. For better power saving. When the iwlwifi modules are loaded (or buildin the kernel) but the wireless network interface is not being used, it is a good practice the wireless device consumes as less power as possible. Unloading the firmware from the wireless device and unregister the driver's interrupt handler in the network interface close handler provides users a way to achieve this. User space network configuration tools (i.e NetworkManager) can also contribute here when it detects a wired cable is connected and close the wireless interface automatically. This patch also includes the pci_save/restore_state() fixed by Ian Schram upon the first version.

This patch (based on Ron Rindjunsky's) creates a framework for a unified way to pass BSS configuration to drivers that require the information, e.g. for implementing power save mode. This patch introduces new ieee80211_bss_conf structure that is passed to the driver via the new bss_info_changed() callback when the BSS configuration changes. This new BSS configuration infrastructure adds the following new features: * drivers are notified of their association AID * drivers are notified of association status and replaces the erp_ie_changed() callback. The patch also does the relevant driver updates for the latter change.
