Brajesh Dave 01d77d8d47 libertas: separate mesh connectivity from that of the main interface
The transmit and receive traffic as soon as the mesh interface is
brought up.

Test case 1:  Bring up only the mesh interface and ping.  No need for
any iwconfig commands on the main interface.

$ ifconfig msh0 192.168.5.3
$ iwconfig msh0 channel X
$ ping 192.168.5.2
If ping succeeds, PASS

Test case 2:  Associate with the main interface, and turn off AP.  Mesh
interface should not lose connectivity.

$ iwconfig eth0 mode managed essid "my_ssid"
$ ifconfig msh0 192.168.5.3
$ ping 192.168.5.2
<turn off access point>
If ping continues uninterrupted, PASS

This feature requires firmware version 5.110.19.p0 or newer, available
here: http://dev.laptop.org/pub/firmware/libertas/

Holger Schurig 1007832103 libertas: move to uniform lbs_/LBS_ namespace
This patch unifies the namespace of variables, functions defines
and structures. It does:

- rename libertas_XXX to lbs_XXX
- rename LIBERTAS_XXX to lbs_XXX
- rename wlan_XXX to lbs_XXX
- rename WLAN_XXX to LBS_XXX (but only those that were
  defined in libertas-local *.h files, e.g. not defines
  from net/ieee80211.h)

While passing, I fixed some checkpatch.pl errors too.

Dan Williams 954ee164f4 [PATCH] libertas: reorganize and simplify init sequence
This patch moves all firmware load responsibility into the interface-specific
code and gets rid of the firmware pointer in the generic card structure.  It
also removes 3 fairly unecessary callbacks: hw_register_dev, hw_unregister_dev,
and hw_prog_firmware.  It also makes the init sequence from interface
probe functions more logical, as there are paired add/remove and start/stop
calls into generic libertas code.

Because the USB driver code uses the same TX URB callback for both firmware
upload (where the generic libertas structure isn't initialized yet) and for
normal operation (where it is), some bits of USB code have to deal with
'priv' being NULL.  All USB firmware upload bits have been changed to not
require 'priv' at all, but simply the USB card structure.

Luis Carlos Cobo 965f8bbc6c [PATCH] libertas: monitor mode support for OLPC firmware
Driver support for the monitor mode support that will be available in the next
OLPC 'bleeding edge' Marvell firmware release (most likely, 5.110.16.p2).

To activate monitor mode,

echo mode > /sys/class/net/{ethX,mshX}/device/libertas_rtap

where mode is the hex mask that specifies which frames to sniff (in short, 0x1
for data, 0x2 for all management but beacons, 0x4 for beacons). Any non zero
mode will activate the monitor mode, inhibiting transmission in ethX and mshX
interfaces and routing all the incoming traffic to a new rtapX interface that
will output the packets in 802.11+radiotap headers format.

Dan Williams 8c51276575 [PATCH] libertas: simplify and clean up data rate handling
Remove unused/duplicated fields and consolidate static data rate arrays,
for example the libertas_supported_rates[] and datarates[] arrays in
the bss_descriptor structure, and the libertas_supported_rates field
in the wlan_adapter structure.

Introduce libertas_fw_index_to_data_rate and libertas_data_rate_to_fw_index
functions and use them everywhere firmware requires a rate index rather
than a rate array.

The firmware requires the 4 basic rates to have the MSB set, but most
other stuff doesn't, like WEXT and mesh ioctls.  Therefore, only set the MSB
on basic rates when pushing rate arrays to firmware instead of doing a ton
of (rate & 0x7f) everywhere.

Dan Williams e76850d620 [PATCH] libertas: make association paths consistent
The BSS to associate with (in either Infrastructure or IBSS join
operations) is now stored in _one_ place in the association request (the
bss member), not two places as before (pattemptedbss and
curbssparams->bssdescriptor).

Association requests are passed to the necessary association functions
to (a) give them access to the bss member and (b) ensure that
association/join/start setup uses settings from the request, not the
current adapter settings (which may not be valid for the requested
settings).

Because the 'bss' member of the association request is used now, the
command return functions from associate and adhoc join/start need access
to the in-progress association request to update curbssparams when
everything is done.  The association worker moves the request from
pending to in-progress for the duration of the association attempt.

Actually, this patch removev wlan_dev_t totally and puts the used variables

Changed two occurences of "((wlan_private *) dev->priv)->wlan_dev.netdev"
into "dev", because I didn't see the point in doing pointer-ping-pong.
