qtnfmac: introduce new FullMAC driver for Quantenna chipsets

2017-05-24T14:04:13+00:00

This patch adds support for new FullMAC WiFi driver for Quantenna QSR10G chipsets. QSR10G (aka Pearl) is Quantenna's 8x8, 160M, 11ac offering. QSR10G supports 2 simultaneous WMACs - one 5G and one 2G. 5G WMAC supports 160M, 8x8 configuration. FW supports up to 8 concurrent virtual interfaces on each WMAC. Patch introduces 2 new drivers: - qtnfmac.ko for interfacing with kernel wireless core - qtnfmac_pearl_pcie.ko for interfacing with hardware over PCIe interface Signed-off-by: Dmitrii Lebed Signed-off-by: Sergei Maksimenko Signed-off-by: Sergey Matyukevich Signed-off-by: Bindu Therthala Signed-off-by: Huizhao Wang Signed-off-by: Kamlesh Rath Signed-off-by: Avinash Patil Signed-off-by: Igor Mitsyanko Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo

wireless: deprecate WDS and disable by default

2016-10-27T07:08:43+00:00

The old WDS 4-addr frame support is very limited, e.g. * no encryption is possible on such links * it cannot support rate/HT/VHT negotiation * management APIs are very restricted These make the WDS legacy mode useless in practice. All of these are resolved by the 4-addr AP/client support, so there's also no reason to improve WDS in the future. Therefore, add a Kconfig option to disable legacy WDS. This gives people an "emergency valve" while they migrate to the better-supported 4-addr AP/client option; we plan to remove it (and the associated cfg80211/mac80211 code, which is the ultimate goal) in the future.

Rename WL_TI to WLAN_VENDOR_TI to match with other vendor configs and make sure that it's enabled by default in new configs. Convert menuconfigs to regular configs to unify the wireless drivers menuconfig. Part of reorganising wireless drivers directory and Kconfig. Also remove WLCORE dependency to WL_TI. It should not be needed as WLCORE is already under if WLAN_VENDOR_TI. Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo
