* nl80211/cfg80211: add STA WME parametersEliad Peller2011-08-261-0/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | Add new NL80211_ATTR_STA_WME nested attribute that contains wme params needed by the low-level driver (uapsd_queues and max_sp).

* mac80211: update mesh peering frame formatThomas Pedersen2011-08-221-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch updates the mesh peering frames to the format specified in the recently ratified 802.11s standard. Several changes took place to make this happen: - Change RX path to handle new self-protected frames - Add new Peering management IE - Remove old Peer Link IE - Remove old plink_action field in ieee80211_mgmt header These changes by themselves would either break peering, or work by coincidence, so squash them all into this patch.

| | | | | | | | | | The NL80211_CMD_NEW_BEACON command is, in practice, requesting AP mode operations to be started. Add new attributes to provide extra IEs (e.g., WPS IE, P2P IE) for drivers that build Beacon, Probe Response, and (Re)Association Response frames internally (likely in firmware).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In certain circumstances, like WoWLAN scenarios, devices may implement (partial) GTK rekeying on the device to avoid waking up the host for it. In order to successfully go through GTK rekeying, the KEK, KCK and the replay counter are required. Add API to let the supplicant hand the parameters to the driver which may store it for future GTK rekey operations. Note that, of course, if GTK rekeying is done by the device, the EAP frame must not be passed up to userspace, instead a rekey event needs to be sent to let userspace update its replay counter.

Please note that drivers using cfg80211_roamed() need to be modified to fully implement this fix.

| * cfg80211: make stripping of 802.11 header optional from AMSDUYogesh Ashok Powar2011-05-161-8/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the devices that have already stripped IEEE 802.11 header from the AMSDU SKB can not use ieee80211_amsdu_to_8023s routine. This patch enhances ieee80211_amsdu_to_8023s() API by changing mandatory removing of IEEE 802.11 header from AMSDU to optional.

| * nl80211: Move peer link state definition to nl80211Javier Cardona2011-05-161-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These definitions need to be exposed now that we can set the peer link states via NL80211_ATTR_STA_PLINK_STATE. They were already being (opaquely) reported by NL80211_STA_INFO_PLINK_STATE. Signed-off-by: Javier Cardona <javier@cozybit.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
| * cfg80211: advertise possible interface combinationsJohannes Berg2011-05-164-14/+251
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add the ability to advertise interface combinations in nl80211. This allows the driver to indicate what the combinations are that it supports. "Combinations" of just a single interface are implicit, as previously. Note that cfg80211 will enforce that the restrictions are met, but not for all drivers yet (once all drivers are updated, we can remove the flag and enforce for all). When no combinations are actually supported, an empty list will be exported so that userspace can know if the kernel exported this info or not (although it isn't clear to me what tools using the info should do if the kernel didn't export it). Since some interface types are purely virtual/software and don't fit the restrictions, those are exposed in a new list of pure SW types, not subject to restrictions. This mainly exists to handle AP-VLAN and monitor interfaces in mac80211. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
