2008-12-12wireless: Incorrect LEAP authentication algorithm identifier.Senthil Balasubramanian1-1/+1
This patch fixes a regression introduced by "wireless: avoid some net/ieee80211.h vs. linux/ieee80211.h conflicts" LEAP authentication algorithm identifier should be 128. Signed-off-by: Senthil Balasubramanian <senthilkumar@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2008-11-26cfg80211/mac80211: Add 802.11d supportLuis R. Rodriguez1-0/+62
This adds country IE parsing to mac80211 and enables its usage within the new regulatory infrastructure in cfg80211. We parse the country IEs only on management beacons for the BSSID you are associated to and disregard the IEs when the country and environment (indoor, outdoor, any) matches the already processed country IE. To avoid following misinformed or outdated APs we build and use a regulatory domain out of the intersection between what the AP provides us on the country IE and what CRDA is aware is allowed on the same country. A secondary device is allowed to follow only the same country IE as it make no sense for two devices on a system to be in two different countries. In the case the AP is using country IEs for an incorrect country the user may help compliance further by setting the regulatory domain before or after the IE is parsed and in that case another intersection will be performed. CONFIG_WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY is supported but requires CRDA present. Signed-off-by: Luis R.

2008-11-10mac80211_hwsim: Add support for client PS modeJouni Malinen1-0/+7
This introduces a debugfs file (ieee80211/phy#/hwsim/ps) that can be used to force a simulated radio into power save mode. Following values can be written into this file to change PS mode: 0 = power save disabled (constantly awake) 1 = power save enabled (drop all frames; do not send PS-Poll) 2 = power save enabled (send PS-Poll frames automatically to receive buffered unicast frames); not yet fully implemented 3 = manual PS-Poll trigger (send a single PS-Poll frame) Two different behavior for power save mode processing can be tested: - move between modes 1 and 0 (i.e., receive all buffered frames at a time) - move to mode 1 and use manual PS-Poll frames (write 3 to the 'ps' debugfs file) to fetch power save buffered frames one at a time Mode 2 (automatic PS-Poll) does not yet parse Beacon frames, but eventually, it should take a look at TIM IE and send PS-Poll if a traffic bit is set for our AID.

2008-09-25mac80211: mesh portal functionality supportYanBo1-0/+5
Currently the mesh code doesn't support bridging mesh point interfaces with wired ethernet or AP to construct an MPP or MAP. This patch adds code to support the "6 address frame format packet" functionality to mesh point interfaces. Now the mesh network can be used as backhaul for end to end communication.

2008-06-14mac80211: add helpers for frame control testingHarvey Harrison1-18/+374
A few general categories: 1) ieee80211_has_* tests if particular fctl bits are set, the helpers are de in the same order as the fctl defines: A combined _has_a4 was also added to test when both FROMDS and TODS are set. 2) ieee80211_is_* is meant to test whether the frame control is of a certain ftype - data, mgmt, ctl, and two special helpers _is_data_qos, _is_data_pres which also test a subset of the stype space. When testing for a particular stype applicable only to one ftype, functions like ieee80211_is_ack have been added. Note that the ftype is also being checked in these helpers. They have been added for all mgmt and ctl stypes in the same order as the STYPE defines. 3) ieee80211_get_* is meant to take a struct ieee80211_hdr * and returns a pointer to somewhere in the struct, see get_SA, get_DA, get_qos_ctl. The intel wireless drivers had helpers that used this namespace, convert the all to use the new helpers and remove the byteshifting as they were defined in cpu-order rather than little-endian.

2008-06-03mac80211: allow disable FAT in specific configurationsEmmanuel Grumbach1-0/+2
This patch allows to disable FAT channel in specific configurations. For example the configuration (8, +1), (primary channel 8, extension channel 12) isn't permitted in U.S., but (8, -1), (primary channel 8, extension channel 4) is. When FAT channel configuration is not permitted, FAT channel should be reported as not supported in the capabilities of the HT IE in association request. And sssociation is performed on 20Mhz channel. Signed-off-by: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Tomas Winkler <tomas.winkler@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2008-05-22mac80211: separate Tx and Rx MCS when configuring HTRon Rindjunsky1-4/+14
This patch follows the 11n spec in separation between Tx and Rx MCS capabilities. Up until now, when configuring the HT possible set of Tx MCS only Rx MCS were considered, assuming they are the same as the Tx MCS. This patch fixed this by looking at low level driver Tx capabilities.

2007-07-13[PATCH] mac80211: ERP IE handling improvementsDaniel Drake1-0/+11
The "protection needed" flag is currently parsed out of the ERP IE in beacons. This patch allows the ERP IE to be available at assocation time and causes the appropriate actions to be performed earlier. It is slightly complicated by the fact that most APs don't include the ERP IE in association responses. To work around this, we store ERP values in the ieee80211_sta_bss structure. Also added some WLAN_ERP defines for use by upcoming patches. Signed-off-by: Jiri Benc <jbenc@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
