* mac80211: remove some unused codeJohannes Berg2012-10-184-18/+4
| | | | | | | | | | There are a number of unused variables that gcc pointed out (when building with W=1) as well as some conditions that can never be true due to the datatypes used: unsigned values can't be less than zero. Remove this code. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
* mac80211: remove unimplemented mesh vendor syncJohannes Berg2012-10-183-54/+5
| | | | | | | | | There's no vendor-specific mesh sync implemented and there don't need to be dummy handlers that only print messages, so remove that code. While at it, also constify the mesh sync ops. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The include file linux/ieee80211.h contains three definitions for the same thing in enum ieee80211_eid due to historic changes: /* Information Element IDs */ enum ieee80211_eid { : WLAN_EID_WPA = 221, WLAN_EID_GENERIC = 221, WLAN_EID_VENDOR_SPECIFIC = 221, : }; The standard refers to this as "vendor specific" element so the other two definitions are better not used.

* mac80211: Notify new IBSS network creationSujith Manoharan2012-10-182-3/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Initialization of beacon transmission in IBSS mode depends on whether a new BSS is being created or joined. When joining an existing IBSS network, beaconing has to start only after a TSF-sync has happened - this is explained in 11.1.4. Introduce a new parameter in the BSS information structure to indicate creator/joiner mode.

* cfg80211: add support for flushing old scan resultsSam Leffler2012-10-186-24/+66
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add an NL80211_SCAN_FLAG_FLUSH flag that causes old bss cache entries to be flushed on scan completion. This is useful for collecting guaranteed fresh scan/survey result (e.g. on resume). For normal scan, flushing only happens on successful completion of a scan; i.e. it does not happen if the scan is aborted. For scheduled scan, previous scan results are flushed everytime when we get new scan results. This feature is enabled by default. Drivers can disable it by unsetting the NL80211_FEATURE_SCAN_FLUSH flag.

* wireless: use OR operation to set wiphy featuresJohannes Berg2012-10-183-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The next patch will introduce a flag that is set by default in cfg80211 so drivers and mac80211 need to use |= to set features they have so that they don't clear the already-set feature. We could set the flag in wiphy_register() instead of wiphy_new() to avoid this patch, but then the drivers couldn't *unset* flags they don't want to use even though the implementation is generic.

* mac80211: add channel context iteratorJohannes Berg2012-10-172-2/+41

* mac80211: track needed RX chains for channel contextsJohannes Berg2012-10-1712-92/+219
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On each channel that the device is operating on, it may need to listen using one or more chains depending on the SMPS settings of the interfaces using it. The previous channel context changes completely removed this ability (before, it was available as the SMPS mode). Add per-context tracking of the required static and dynamic RX chains and notify the driver on changes. To achieve this, track the chains and SMPS mode used on each virtual interface and update the channel context whenever this changes. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
* mac80211: use channel contextsJohannes Berg2012-10-1716-466/+586
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of operating on a single channel only, use the new channel context infrastructure in all mac80211 code. This enables drivers that want to use the new channel context infrastructure to use multiple channels, while nothing should change for all the other drivers that don't support it. Right now this disables both TX power settings and spatial multiplexing powersave. Both need to be re-enabled on a channel context basis. Additionally, when channel contexts are used drop the connection when channel switch is received rather than trying to handle it. This will have to be improved later.

* mac80211: track whether to use channel contextsJohannes Berg2012-10-165-0/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Depending on the driver, channel contexts may be used or not. If they are used, the driver must have support for hardware scan and remain-on-channel; otherwise the driver must not advertise support for multiple channels. Also prohibit WDS type interfaces when channel contexts are to be used as there's no clear definition of which channel they use. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

| * | MIPS: perf: Split the Kconfig option CONFIG_MIPS_MT_SMPAl Cooper2012-10-112-8/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Split the Kconfig option CONFIG_MIPS_MT_SMP into CONFIG_MIPS_MT_SMP and CONFIG_MIPS_PERF_SHARED_TC_COUNTERS so some of the code used for performance counters that are shared between threads can be used for MIPS cores that are not MT_SMP.

| * | MIPS: perf: Remove unnecessary #ifdefAl Cooper2012-10-111-5/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The #ifdef for CONFIG_HW_PERF_EVENTS is not needed because the Makefile will only compile the module if this config option is set. This means that the code under #else would never be compiled. This may have been done to leave the original broken code around for reference, but the FIXME comment above the code already shows the broken code.
