2019-07-17docs: remove extra conf.py filesMauro Carvalho Chehab
Now that the latex_documents are handled automatically, we can remove those extra conf.py files. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+samsung@kernel.org>
2019-06-14mac80211: call rate_control_send_low() internallyJohannes Berg
There's no rate control algorithm that *doesn't* want to call it internally, and calling it internally will let us modify its behaviour in the future. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2019-02-01mac80211: fix missing/malformed documentationJohannes Berg
Fix the missing and malformed documentation that kernel-doc and sphinx warn about. While at it, also add some things to the docs to fix missing links. Sadly, the only way I could find to fix this was to add some trailing whitespace. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2017-09-21cfg80211: remove unused function ieee80211_data_from_8023()Johannes Berg
This function hasn't been used since the removal of iwmc3200wifi in 2012. It also appears to have a bug when qos=True, since then it'll copy uninitialized stack memory to the SKB. Just remove the function entirely. Reported-by: Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2017-03-31cfg80211: add intro to documentationJohannes Berg
This introduction section should be used in the documentation, do that at the beginning of the cfg80211 chapter. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2017-03-31cfg80211: Use a structure to pass connect response paramsVidyullatha Kanchanapally
Currently the connect event from driver takes all the connection response parameters as arguments. With support for new features these response parameters can grow. Use a structure to pass these parameters rather than passing them as function arguments.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jberg/mac80211-next Johannes Berg says: ==================== For 4.11, we seem to have more than in the past few releases: * socket owner support for connections, so when the wifi manager (e.g. wpa_supplicant) is killed, connections are torn down - wpa_supplicant is critical to managing certain operations, and can opt in to this where applicable * minstrel & minstrel_ht updates to be more efficient (time and space) * set wifi_acked/wifi_acked_valid for skb->destructor use in the kernel, which was already available to userspace * don't indicate new mesh peers that might be used if there's no room to add them * multicast-to-unicast support in mac80211, for better medium usage (since unicast frames can use *much* higher rates, by ~3 orders of magnitude) * add API to read channel (frequency) limitations from DT * add infrastructure to allow randomizing public action frames for MAC address privacy (still requires driver support) * many cleanups and small improvements/fixes across the board ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2016-11-29docs: Move the 802.11 guide into the driver-api manualJonathan Corbet
Put this documentation with the other driver docs and try to keep the top level reasonably clean. Cc: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
