wireless: move documentation books

2010-08-24T20:28:16+00:00

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.

mac80211: remove get_tx_stats() driver op

2010-02-08T21:51:01+00:00

get_tx_stats() driver operation is not currently used anywhere in mac80211
and there are no plans to use it in the not-so-near future. So it can go
without anyone missing it.

mac80211: fix docbook

2009-07-08T19:24:28+00:00

These two functions no longer exist in mac80211,
so trying to insert them generates warnings in
the document.

mac80211: fix kernel-doc

2009-05-20T18:46:32+00:00

Moving information from config_interface to bss_info_changed
removed struct ieee80211_if_conf which the documentation still
refers to, additionally there's one kernel-doc description too
much and one other missing, fix all this.

mac80211: add beacon filtering support

2009-03-28T00:13:13+00:00

Add IEEE80211_HW_BEACON_FILTERING flag so that driver inform that it supports
beacon filtering. Drivers need to call the new function
ieee80211_beacon_loss() to notify about beacon loss.

mac80211: extend/document powersave API

2009-01-29T20:59:58+00:00

This modifies hardware flags for powersave to support three different
flags:
 * IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_PS - indicates general PS support
 * IEEE80211_HW_PS_NULLFUNC_STACK - indicates nullfunc sending in software
 * IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS - indicates dynamic PS on the device

It also adds documentation for all this which explains how to set the
various flags.

Additionally, it fixes a few things:
 * a spot where && was used to test flags
 * enable CONF_PS only when associated again

mac80211: clarify alignment docs, fix up alignment

2009-01-29T20:59:54+00:00

Not all drivers are capable of passing properly aligned frames,
in particular with mesh networking no hardware will support
completely aligning it correctly.

This patch adds code to align the data payload to a 4-byte
boundary in memory for those platforms that require this, or
when CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUG_PACKET_ALIGNMENT is set.

mac80211: clean up kdoc

2008-09-15T20:48:26+00:00

A few errors sneaked in over time, some functions no longer exist,
for some alternatives exist. This changes the docbook template to
include the right things.

mac80211: add documentation book

2008-03-06T20:30:47+00:00

Quite a while ago I started this book. The required kernel-doc
patches have since gone into the tree so it is now possible to
build the book in mainline.

The actual documentation is still rather incomplete and not all
things are linked into the book, but this enables us to edit
the documentation collaboratively, hopefully driver authors can
add documentation based on their experience with mac80211.
