<content type='text'>
when we run high bandwidth UDP traffic and we trigger a scan, the scan
state machine seems to be looping in SUSPEND-&gt;RESUME-&gt;DECISION-&gt;SUSPEND
and SET_CHANNEL seems to be never called as 'tx_empty' is never true
while running UDP traffic. fix this by settting SET_CHANNEL state when
we get into RESUME state.

   Please, this kind of stuff rots forever and not using bool properly
   drives me crazy.

Joe Perches &lt;joe@perches.com&gt; gave me the spatch script:

	@@
	bool b;
	@@
	-b = 0
	+b = false
	@@
	bool b;
	@@
	-b = 1
	+b = true

I merely installed coccinelle, read the documentation and took credit.

<title>mac80211: revert on-channel work optimisations</title>

<content type='text'>
The on-channel work optimisations have caused a
number of issues, and the code is unfortunately
very complex and almost impossible to follow.
Instead of attempting to put in more workarounds
let's just remove those optimisations, we can
work on them again later, after we change the
whole auth/assoc design.

This should fix rate_control_send_low() warnings,
see RH bug 731365.

Attempting to micro-optimise the scan by going
fully live again when scanning the operating
channel just made the code extremely complex
and has little gain in most use cases. Remove
all that code and simplify the state machine
again.

These files are non modular, but need to export symbols using
the macros now living in export.h -- call out the include so
that things won't break when we remove the implicit presence
of module.h from everywhere.

This is needed so that offloaded scan can do the

Whenever the scan request or tx_mgmt is requesting not to
use CCK rate for managemet frames through
NL80211_ATTR_TX_NO_CCK_RATE attribute, then mac80211 should
select appropriate least non-CCK rate. This could help to
send P2P probes and P2P action frames at non 11b rates
without diabling 11b rates globally.
