rtl8187: Add missing priv->vif assignments

2008-04-15T18:51:57+00:00

This adds missing priv->vif assignments after "mac80211: don't use
interface indices in drivers" change. As rtl8180, rtl8187 also needs
priv->vif to be set, as without this an oops can happen in rtl8187_tx
function (priv->vif is passed to ieee80211_rts_duration).

mac80211: dont use interface indices in drivers

2008-01-28T23:09:36+00:00

This patch gets rid of the if_id stuff where possible in favour of
a new per-virtual-interface structure "struct ieee80211_vif". This
structure is located at the end of the per-interface structure and
contains a variable length driver-use data area.

This has two advantages:
 * removes the need to look up interfaces by if_id, this is better
   for working with network namespaces and performance
 * allows drivers to store and retrieve per-interface data without
   having to allocate own lists/hash tables

Add rtl8180 wireless driver

2008-01-28T23:09:35+00:00

This patch adds a mac80211 based wireless driver for the rtl8180 and
rtl8185 PCI wireless cards.  Also included are some rtl8187 changes
required due to the relationship between that driver and this one.

Michael Wu is primarily responsible for the initial driver and rtl8185
support.  Andreas Merello provided the additional rtl8180 support.

Thanks to Jukka Ruohonen for the donating a rtl8185 card! It was very
helpful for the rtl8225z2 code.

patches submitted to wireless-2.6 before merging this driver upstream.

wireless: make drivers include the TSF RX flag where appropriate

2008-01-28T22:58:26+00:00

These drivers pass full mactime information to the stack, make them
indicate this via the new RX_FLAG_TSFT to get mac80211 to show this
information in monitor mode.

[PATCH] rtl8187: Fix more frag bit checking, rts duration calc

2007-10-18T19:38:24+00:00

The wrong pointer is passed to ieee80211_get_morefrag. Fix this.

While we're at it, reorder things so they look better and the rts duration
calculation is done with the right length.

Thanks to Christoph Hellwig for finding the ieee80211_get_morefrag issue.
