net: Add export.h for EXPORT_SYMBOL/THIS_MODULE to non-modules

2011-10-31T23:30:30+00:00

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.

net: add moduleparam.h for users of module_param/MODULE_PARM_DESC

2011-10-31T23:30:29+00:00

These files were getting access to these two via the implicit
presence of module.h everywhere.  They aren't modules, so they
don't need the full module.h inclusion though.

nl80211: Add sta_flags to the station info

2011-10-14T18:48:23+00:00

Reuse the already existing struct nl80211_sta_flag_update to specify
both, a flag mask and the flag set itself. This means
nl80211_sta_flag_update is now used for setting station flags and also
for getting station flags.

mac80211: data path modification for TDLS peers

2011-09-30T19:57:09+00:00

Mark the STA entries of enabled TDLS peers with a new "peer authorized"
flag.

During link setup, allow special TDLS setup frames through the AP, but
otherwise drop all packets destined to the peer. This is required by the
TDLS (802.11z) specification in order to prevent reordering of MSDUs
between the AP and direct paths.

When setup completes and the peer is authorized, send data directly,
bypassing the AP.

In the Rx path, allow data to be received directly from TDLS peers.

nl80211/mac80211: allow adding TDLS peers as stations

2011-09-30T19:57:08+00:00

When adding a TDLS peer STA, mark it with a new flag in both nl80211 and
mac80211. Before adding a peer, make sure the wiphy supports TDLS and
our operating mode is appropriate (managed).

In addition, make sure all peers are removed on disassociation.

A TDLS peer is first added just before link setup is initiated. In later
setup stages we have more info about peer supported rates, capabilities,
etc. This info is reported via nl80211_set_station().

nl80211: support sending TDLS commands/frames

2011-09-30T19:57:05+00:00

Add support for sending high-level TDLS commands and TDLS frames via
NL80211_CMD_TDLS_OPER and NL80211_CMD_TDLS_MGMT, respectively. Add
appropriate cfg80211 callbacks for lower level drivers.

Add wiphy capability flags for TDLS support and advertise them via
nl80211.

cfg80211/mac80211: apply station uAPSD parameters selectively

2011-09-30T19:57:03+00:00

Currently, when hostapd sets the station as authorized
we also overwrite its uAPSD parameter. This obviously
leads to buggy behaviour (later, with my patches that
actually add uAPSD support). To fix this, only apply
those parameters if they were actually set in nl80211,
and to achieve that add a bitmap of things to apply.

mac80211: treat the WME sta flag as a bit

Correct flag usage - use it as a bit index instead of a bit value.

cfg80211/mac80211: add netdev param to set_txq_params()

tx params are currently configured per hw, although they
should be configured per interface.
