cfg80211/mac80211: get mandatory rates based on scan width

2013-07-16T06:58:07+00:00

Mandatory rates for 5 and 10 MHz are different from the rates used for
20 MHz in 2.4 GHz mode, as they use OFDM only.

cfg80211: remove some locked wrappers from sme API

2013-05-24T22:02:22+00:00

By making all the API functions require wdev locking we
can clean up the API a bit, getting rid of the locking
version of each function. This also decreases the size
of cfg80211 by a small amount.

cfg80211: vastly simplify locking

2013-05-24T22:02:15+00:00

Virtually all code paths in cfg80211 already (need to) hold
the RTNL. As such, there's little point in having another
four mutexes for various parts of the code, they just cause
lock ordering issues (and much of the time, the RTNL and a
few of the others need thus be held.)

Simplify all this by getting rid of the extra four mutexes
and just use the RTNL throughout. Only a few code changes
were needed to do this and we can get rid of a work struct
for bonus points.

cfg80211: invert P2P-Device vs. netdev check ordering

2013-04-22T13:31:55+00:00

In cfg80211_can_use_iftype_chan(), check for P2P Device
first, and then for netdevs. This doesn't really change
anything but makes the code a bit easier to read since
it may not be obvious for everyone at first that a P2P
device has no netdev.

cfg80211: add ieee80211_operating_class_to_band

2013-04-16T13:29:43+00:00

This function converts a (global only!) operating
class to an internal band identifier. This will
be needed for extended channel switch support.

net: add ETH_P_802_3_MIN

2013-03-28T05:20:42+00:00

Add a new constant ETH_P_802_3_MIN, the minimum ethernet type for
an 802.3 frame. Frames with a lower value in the ethernet type field
are Ethernet II.

Also update all the users of this value that David Miller and
I could find to use the new constant.

Also correct a bug in util.c. The comparison with ETH_P_802_3_MIN
should be >= not >.

As suggested by Jesse Gross.

Compile tested only.
