nl802154: export supported commands

2015-06-04T10:27:15+00:00

This patch will export the supported commands by the devices to the userspace. This will be useful to check if HardMAC drivers can support a specific command or not. Signed-off-by: Varka Bhadram Acked-by: Alexander Aring Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann

nl802154: add support to set cca ed level

2015-05-27T17:29:42+00:00

This patch adds support for setting the current cca ed level value over nl802154. Signed-off-by: Alexander Aring Reviewed-by: Varka Bhadram Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann

nl802154: add support for cca ed level info

2015-05-27T17:29:42+00:00

This patch adds information about the current cca ed level when the phy is dumped over nl802154. Signed-off-by: Alexander Aring Reviewed-by: Varka Bhadram Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann

ieee802154: add set transmit power support

2015-05-27T11:29:25+00:00

This patch adds transmission power setting support for IEEE-802.15.4 devices via nl802154. Signed-off-by: Varka Bhadram Acked-by: Alexander Aring Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann

nl802154: fix cca mode wpan phy flag

2015-05-26T21:45:15+00:00

This patch fix the handling to call cca mode setting. If the phy isn't flag then the driver doesn't support this setting. Signed-off-by: Alexander Aring Reported-by: Varka Bhadram Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann

nl802154: add support for dump phy capabilities

2015-05-19T09:44:44+00:00

This patch add support to nl802154 to dump all phy capabilities which is inside the wpan_phy_supported struct. Also we introduce a new method to dumping supported channels. The new method will offer a easier interface and has lesser netlink traffic. Signed-off-by: Alexander Aring Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann

cfg802154: introduce wpan phy flags

2015-05-19T09:44:42+00:00

This patch introduce a flag property for the wpan phy structure. The current flag settings in ieee802154_hw are accessable in mac802154 layer only which is okay for flags which indicates MAC handling which are done by phy. For real PHY layer settings like cca mode, transmit power, cca energy detection level. The difference between these flags are that the MAC handling flags are only handled in mac802154/HardMac layer e.g. on an interface up. The phy settings are direct netlink calls from nl802154 into the driver layer and the nl802154 need to have a chance to check if the driver supports this handling before sending to the next layer. We also check now on PHY flags while dumping and setting pib attributes. In comparing with MIB attributes the 802.15.4 gives us an default value which we assume when a transceiver implement less functionality. In case of MIB settings the nl802154 layer doesn't need to check on the ieee802154_hw flags then. Signed-off-by: Alexander Aring Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann

ieee802154: add several phy supported handling

2015-05-19T09:44:42+00:00

This patch adds support for phy supported handling for all other already existing handling 802.15.4 functionality. We assume now a fully 802.15.4 complaint transceiver at phy allocation. If a transceiver can support 802.15.4 default values only, then the values should be overwirtten by values the transceiver supports. If the transceiver doesn't set the according hardware flags, we assume the 802.15.4 defaults now which cannot be changed.

ieee802154: introduce wpan_phy_supported

2015-05-19T09:44:42+00:00

This patch introduce the wpan_phy_supported struct for wpan_phy. There is currently no way to check if a transceiver can handle IEEE 802.15.4 complaint values. With this struct we can check before if the transceiver supports these values before sending to driver layer.
