2010-11-29ath9k: fix software retry counter trackingFelix Fietkau
The recent tx path cleanups moved the software retry count tracking from the ath_buf to the skb cb, however the actual counter update referred to the wrong location, confusing block-ack window tracking. Fix this by using the retries counter in the struct ath_frame_info. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2010-11-29ath9k: Reintroduce modparam to enable btcoexVasanthakumar Thiagarajan
It is not ideal to enable btcoex based on subsys id as it is not unique, they are so random. It is also a pain keeping all of them in a table to enable btcoex for a particular hw. Going back to the old idea. Signed-off-by: Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan <vasanth@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2010-11-29mac80211: implement off-channel mgmt TXJohannes Berg
This implements the new off-channel TX API in mac80211 with a new work item type. The operation doesn't add a new work item when we're on the right channel and there's no wait time so that for example p2p probe responses will be transmitted without delay.

2010-11-29nl80211/cfg80211: extend mgmt-tx API for off-channelJohannes Berg
With p2p, it is sometimes necessary to transmit a frame (typically an action frame) on another channel than the current channel. Enable this through the CMD_FRAME API, and allow it to wait for a response. A new command allows that wait to be aborted. However, allow userspace to specify whether or not it wants to allow off-channel TX, it may actually want to use the same channel only.

2010-11-24iwlwifi: use mac80211 AC definesJohannes Berg

2010-11-24iwlagn: fix station powersave accounting for aggregationJohannes Berg
Since aggregation queues are station-specific, the device will not reject packets in them but rather will stop the appropriate aggregation queues when a station goes to sleep. I forgot to account for this in the driver, so if a station went to sleep that had aggregation enabled, traffic would stop indefinitely. Fix this by only accounting frames queued on the normal AC queues for associated station. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Wey-Yi Guy <wey-yi.w.guy@intel.com>
2010-11-24iwlagn: remove powersave warningJohannes Berg
Through races, a packet may be enqueued for transmission to a station while that station is going to sleep, in which case the warning here triggers. Instead of warning, check the condition -- if this packet is not a PS-poll response then we still enqueue it but it will be rejected by the device since the station is marked as asleep.

2010-11-24ath9k_hw: Fix eeprom offset for AR9287 devices (PCI/USB)Rajkumar Manoharan
AR9287 devices (PCI/USB) use different eeprom start location to read nvram. New devices might endup with same devid. So use driver_info to set offset, instead of devid. driver_info is valid for HTC devices alone which is filled in usb_device_id.

2010-11-24mac80211: implement packet loss notificationJohannes Berg
For drivers that have accurate TX status reporting we can report the number of consecutive lost packets to userspace using the new cfg80211 CQM event. The threshold is fixed right now, this may need to be improved in the future. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2010-11-24cfg80211: allow using CQM event to notify packet lossJohannes Berg
This adds the ability for drivers to use CQM events to notify about packet loss for specific stations (which could be the AP for the managed mode case). Since the threshold might be determined by the driver (it isn't passed in right now) it will be passed out of the driver to userspace in the event.

2010-11-24mac80211: reduce the number of retries for nullfunc probingFelix Fietkau
Since nullfunc frames are transmitted as unicast frames, they're more reliable than the broadcast probe requests, so we need fewer retries to figure out whether the AP is really gone. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2010-11-24mac80211: use nullfunc instead of probe request for connection monitoringFelix Fietkau
nullfunc frames are better for connection monitoring, because probe requests are answered even if the AP has already dropped the connection, whereas nullfunc frames from an unassociated station will trigger a disassoc/deauth frame from the AP (WLAN_REASON_CLASS3_FRAME_FROM_NONASSOC_STA), which allows the station to reconnect immediately instead of waiting until it attempts to transmit the next unicast frame. This only works on hardware with reliable tx ACK reporting, any other hardware needs to fall back to the probe request method. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2010-11-24cfg80211/mac80211: improve ad-hoc multicast rate handlingFelix Fietkau

2010-11-24mac80211: probe the AP when resumingFelix Fietkau
Check the connection by probing the AP (either using nullfunc or a probe request). If nullfunc probing is supported and the assoc is no longer valid, the AP will send a disassoc/deauth immediately.

2010-11-24mac80211: calculate beacon loss time accuratelyFelix Fietkau
Instead of using a fixed 2 second timeout, calculate beacon loss interval from the advertised beacon interval and a frame count. With this beacon loss happens after N (default 7) consecutive frames are missed which for a typical setup (100TU beacon interval) is ~700ms (or ~1/3 previous).

You might include something like "These tables came from reverse engineering the 5.10.56.46 version of the Broadcom driver.
