2008-04-09mac80211: rename filesJohannes Berg1-1/+1
This patch renames all mac80211 files (except ieee80211_i.h) to get rid of the useless ieee80211_ prefix. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2008-03-06mac80211: RCU-ify STA info structure accessJohannes Berg1-11/+14
This makes access to the STA hash table/list use RCU to protect against freeing of items. However, it's not a true RCU, the copy step is missing: whenever somebody changes a STA item it is simply updated. This is an existing race condition that is now somewhat understandable. This patch also fixes the race key freeing vs. STA destruction by making sure that sta_info_destroy() is always called under RTNL and frees the key.

2008-03-06mac80211: mesh data structures and first mesh changesLuis Carlos Cobo1-0/+14
Includes integration in struct sta_info of mesh peer link elements, previously on their own mesh peer link table. Signed-off-by: Luis Carlos Cobo <luisca@cozybit.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2008-02-29mac80211: remove STA infos last_ack stuffJohannes Berg1-3/+0
These things aren't used and the only possible use is within rate control algorithms, however those can, if they need it, keep track of it in their private data. last_ack_ms isn't even updated so completely useless.

2008-02-29rc80211-pid: fix rate adjustmentStefano Brivio1-49/+44
Merge rate_control_pid_shift_adjust() to rate_control_pid_adjust_rate() in order to make the learning algorithm aware of constraints on rates. Also add some comments and rename variables. This fixes a bug which prevented 802.11b/g non-AP STAs from working with 802.11b only AP STAs. Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <stefano.brivio@polimi.it> Signed-off-by: John W.

2008-02-29cfg80211 API for channels/bitrates, mac80211 and driver conversionJohannes Berg1-35/+41
This patch creates new cfg80211 wiphy API for channel and bitrate registration and converts mac80211 and drivers to the new API. The old mac80211 API is completely ripped out. All drivers (except ath5k) are updated to the new API, in many cases I expect that optimisations can be done. Along with the regulatory code I've also ripped out the IEEE80211_HW_DEFAULT_REG_DOMAIN_CONFIGURED flag, I believe it to be unnecessary if the hardware simply gives us whatever channels it wants to support and we then enable/disable them as required, which is pretty much required for travelling. Additionally, the patch adds proper "basic" rate handling for STA mode interface, AP mode interface will have to have new API added to allow userspace to set the basic rate set, currently it'll be empty... However, the basic rate handling will need to be moved to the BSS conf stuff. I do expect there to be bugs in this, especially wrt. transmit power handling where I'm basically clueless about how it should work.

2008-02-02mac80211 rate control: fix section mismatchJohannes Berg1-1/+1
When the rate control algorithms are built-in, their exit functions can be called from mac80211's init function so they cannot be marked __exit.

2008-01-29rc80211-pid: fix last_sample initializationStefano Brivio1-0/+2
Fix last_sample initialization. kzalloc'ing the per-STA data wasn't enough, as jiffies can assume negative values as well. This fixes a bug which prevented correct PID operation for a while after booting. Thanks to Michael Buesch for reporting this.

2008-01-29mac80211: Fix rate reporting regressionMichael Wu1-3/+17
Mattias Nissler's "clean up rate selection" patch incorrectly changes the behavior of txrate setting in sta_info. This patch backs out parts of the rate selection consolidation in order to fix this issue for now. Signed-off-by: Michael Wu <flamingice@sourmilk.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2008-01-29rc80211_pid should respect fixed rates.Andrew Lutomirski1-4/+8
I would argue that mac80211 should handle fixed rates outside the rate control code, which would also allow them to take effect immediately instead of during the rate control callback, but this is pretty close to correct.

2008-01-29mac80211: better rate control algorithm selectionJohannes Berg1-2/+22
This patch changes mac80211's Kconfig/Makefile to: * select between the PID and the SIMPLE rate control algorithm as default * always allow tri-state for the rate control algorithms, building those that are selected 'y' into the mac80211 module (if that is a module, otherwise all into the kernel) * force the default rate control algorithm to be built into mac80211 It also makes both rate control algorithms proper modules again with MODULE_LICENSE etc. Only if EMBEDDED is the user allowed to select "NONE" as default which will cause no algorithm to be selected, this will work only when the driver brings one itself (e.g. iwlwifi drivers).

2008-01-29rc80211-pid: simplify and fix shift_adjustStefano Brivio1-18/+16

2008-01-29rc80211-pid: add debuggingMattias Nissler1-0/+444
This adds a new debugfs file from which rate control relevant events can be read one event per line. The output includes the current time, so graphs can be created showing the rate control parameters. This helps in evaluating and tuning rate control parameters. While at it, we split headers and code for better readability. Signed-off-by: Mattias Nissler <mattias.nissler@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <stefano.brivio@polimi.it> Signed-off-by: John W.
