Johannes Berg 1ed32e4fc8 mac80211: remove struct ieee80211_if_init_conf
All its members (vif, mac_addr, type) are now available
in the vif struct directly, so we can pass that instead
of the conf struct. I generated this patch (except the
mac80211 and header file changes) with this semantic

At least two revisions of the D-Link DWA 160 exist, called A1 and A2. A1

Worth noting is ath5k uses an ah_sta_id but that is already
the MAC address combined with the associaiton ID, ah_sta_id
is really ETH_ALEN in size.

This patch fixes a embarrassing bug which was introduced by:
"[PATCH] ar9170: implement frequency calibration for one-stage/openfw"

The phy_data variable initialization has to done outside the for-loop
scope. This is because the for-loop uses u32 phy_data variable more
like a 4-byte field. But in each run only a single byte is calculated.
Therefore phy_data content needs to stay the same for at least 3 more
iterations, before the complete set can be uploaded.

Joerg Albert fea6734a0e ath,ar9170: implemented conformance test limit calc. for tx power
apply the conformance test limits (CTL) stored in the eeprom upon
the values calculated for the tx power (ar->power_*).

This is based on the implementation in the vendor driver
(hal/hpmain.c, line 3700 ff.) with one difference:
If any ctl mode isn't found in the eeprom, we fall back to the "lower",
legacy modes (5GHT20,11A or 2GHT20,11G,11B). Otus only did 5GHT20->11A.

Currently CTL are applied for the FCC group only.

Johannes Berg 3ac64beecd mac80211: allow configure_filter callback to sleep
Over time, a whole bunch of drivers have come up
with their own scheme to delay the configure_filter
operation to a workqueue. To be able to simplify
things, allow configure_filter to sleep, and add
a new prepare_multicast callback that drivers that
need the multicast address list implement. This new
callback must be atomic, but most drivers either
don't care or just calculate a hash which can be
done atomically and then uploaded to the hardware
non-atomically.

A cursory look suggests that at76c50x-usb, ar9170,
mwl8k (which is actually very broken now), rt2x00,
wl1251, wl1271 and zd1211 should make use of this
new capability.

Luis R. Rodriguez 42935ecaf4 mac80211: redefine usage of the mac80211 workqueue
The mac80211 workqueue exists to enable mac80211 and drivers
to queue their own work on a single threaded workqueue. mac80211
takes care to flush the workqueue during suspend but we never
really had requirements on drivers for how they should use
the workqueue in consideration for suspend.

We extend mac80211 to document how the mac80211 workqueue should
be used, how it should not be used and finally move raw access to
the workqueue to mac80211 only. Drivers and mac80211 use helpers
to queue work onto the mac80211 workqueue:

  * ieee80211_queue_work()
  * ieee80211_queue_delayed_work()

These helpers will now warn if mac80211 already completed its
suspend cycle and someone is trying to queue work. mac80211
flushes the mac80211 workqueue prior to suspend a few times,
but we haven't taken the care to ensure drivers won't add more
work after suspend. To help with this we add a warning when
someone tries to add work and mac80211 already completed the
suspend cycle.

Drivers should ensure they cancel any work or delayed work
in the mac80211 stop() callback.

accessible as IEEE80211_SKB_RXCB(skb). It also updates all
drivers to pass the rx status in there, but only by making
them memcpy() it into place before the call to the receive
function (ieee80211_rx(_irqsafe)). Each driver can now be

This patch is a back-port from aggregation testing code.

In the past, we didn't limit the amount of active tx urbs.
However, ar9170 only has a limited buffer reserved for
pending data frames.

This wasn't much of a problem with the slower 802.11b/g.
We simply stopped the full queue and moved on to something different
in the mean time. But - as you guessed it -  this simple approach
stands in way for a decent aggregation implementation.

Christian Lamparter 864cc02e7c ar9170: use bitop macros for tx filter flags
This patch fixes a bug in configure_filter's (sub-)routines.
We never really cleared the flags once we updated the hardware state,
so we wasted our resources by applying already active settings.
