* mac80211: provide ieee80211_sta_eosp()Johannes Berg2013-03-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | The irqsafe version ieee80211_sta_eosp_irqsafe() exists, but drivers must not mix calls to any irqsafe/non-irqsafe function. Both ath9k and iwlwifi, the likely first users of this interface, use non-irqsafe RX/TX/TX status so must also use a non-irqsafe version of this function. Since no driver uses the _irqsafe() version, remove that. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
* cfg80211: add correct docbook entriesJohannes Berg2013-02-181-2/+2
| | | | | | | Update the 802.11 book to list the correct data structures. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
* mac80211: remove ieee80211_key_removedJohannes Berg2012-07-091-1/+0Star
| | | | | | | | | | This API call was intended to be used by drivers if they want to optimize key handling by removing one key when another is added. Remove it since no driver is using it. If needed, it can always be added back. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
* mac80211: notify driver of rate control updatesJohannes Berg2012-04-101-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Devices that have internal rate control need to be notified when the bandwidth or SMPS state changes just like external rate control algorithms get a notification now. Add this notification and clarify the change bits while at it, the HT_CHANGED bit really meant only bandwidth changed. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

* cfg80211: stop tracking authenticated stateJohannes Berg2012-02-061-1/+0Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To track authenticated state seems to have been a design mistake in cfg80211. It is possible to have out of band authentication (FT), tracking multiple authentications caused more problems than it ever helped, and the implementation in mac80211 is too complex. Remove all this complexity, and let userspace do whatever it wants to, mac80211 can deal with that just fine. Association is still tracked of course, but authentication no longer is. Local auth state changes are thus no longer of value, so ignore them completely. This will also help implement SAE -- asking the driver to do an authentication is now almost equivalent to sending an authentication frame, with the exception of shared key authentication which is still handled completely.

* mac80211: document client powersaveJohannes Berg2011-09-301-1/+10
| | | | | | | | | | With the addition of uAPSD and driver buffering the powersave handling has gotten quite complex. Add a section to the documentation to explain it for anyone wanting to implement it. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

* mac80211: add doc short section on LED triggersJohannes Berg2011-01-101-4/+17

* wireless: move documentation booksJohannes Berg2010-08-241-0/+371
This moves mac80211 documentation into a new 802.11 bookset and also adds a cfg80211 book to the set. All of this is rather incomplete, but it's easier to work with big code moving as a separate patch. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
