2015-05-26cfg80211: properly send NL80211_ATTR_DISCONNECTED_BY_AP in disconnectJohannes Berg1-1/+1
When we disconnect from the AP, drivers call cfg80211_disconnect(). This doesn't know whether the disconnection was initiated locally or by the AP though, which can cause problems with the supplicant, for example with WPS. This issue obviously doesn't show up with any mac80211 based driver since mac80211 doesn't call this function. Fix this by requiring drivers to indicate whether the disconnect is locally generated or not. I've tried to update the drivers, but may not have gotten the values correct, and some drivers may currently not be able to report correct values. In case of doubt I left it at false, which is the current behaviour. For libertas, make adjustments as indicated by Dan Williams.

2014-11-17mwifiex: add auto TDLS supportAvinash Patil1-1/+5
This patch adds auto TDLS support to mwifiex. Auto TDLS functionality works as follows: 1. Whenever userspace application has triggered TDLS connection with any peer, driver would store this peer mac address details in its database. 2. After this driver whenever driver receives packet on direct link, it would store rssi and timestamp in peer information. 3. Whenever a packet is to be transmitted to non-AP peer in station mode, driver would check if TDLS link can be established by looking at peer RSSI information. Driver would initiate TDLS setup in such cases. 4. Periodic timer is used for updating peer information. 5. Auto TDLS peer list & timer are cleared during disconnection or driver unload.

2012-11-26cfg80211: remove remain-on-channel channel typeJohannes Berg1-1/+0
As mwifiex (and mac80211 in the software case) are the only drivers actually implementing remain-on-channel with channel type, userspace can't be relying on it. This is the case, as it's used only for P2P operations right now. Rather than adding a flag to tell userspace whether or not it can actually rely on it, simplify all the code by removing the ability to use different channel types. Leave only the validation of the attribute, so that if we extend it again later (with the needed capability flag), it can't break userspace sending invalid data.

2012-11-14mwifiex: add multi-queue supportAvinash Patil1-6/+3
This patch adds support for multiple TX queues inside mwifiex driver. Four different queues according to WMM access categories are defined for each virtual interface. When a packet is received from netdev for transmission, tx pending count for particular queue is incremented and if tx pending count has reached upper water-mark, this queue is stopped instead of stopping all queues. Similarly when a packet is successfully transmitted from device, tx pending count is decremented per queue and if pending count falls below lower water-mark, queue operations are again resumed. This ensures that not all tranmission is blocked if traffic with particular TOS value suddenly increases. Also wake all queues after association/IBSS_join/uAP_BSS_start to enable traffic on all queues.

This patch ensures uniformity in event skb sent by interface code (USB/PCIe/SDIO) which automatically fixes following bugs. 1) For USB interface, same buffer is reused for receiving cmd and events from firmware. While handling events, we perform skb_pull(skb, 4) to remove event header. Corresponding skb_push() call is missing while submitting the buffer. 2) For PCIe interface, event skb is passed with event header. Recently added uAP events EVENT_UAP_STA_ASSOC, EVENT_UAP_STA_DEAUTH will not work for PCIe, as they assume event skb points to event body.
