This patch fixes a bug in Rate Scaling. When moving from SISO to MIMO we need to choose the lowest higher rate, instead of choosing the highest in MIMO. No doing this can lead to a high packet loss in the highest rate in MIMO, leading not to move MIMO although lower in MIMO could give a better TPT.

If certain commands were in-flight when the card was pulled or the driver rmmod-ed, cleanup would block on the work queue stopping, but the work queue was in turn blocked on the current command being canceled, which didn't happen. Fix that. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dcbw@redhat.com> Cc: stable <stable@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

There isn't really a good reason to have the LED configuration options selectable per driver, lets make it default 'y' and make it depend on the NEW_LEDS and LEDS_CLASS interface. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

RFKILL should be enabled for _all_ hardware whether or not they feature a rfkill button or not. Remove driver specific RFKILL configuration options and make the rt2x00lib version depend on CONFIG_RFKILL and defaulting to 'y' to make sure it will always be enabled when RFKILL was enabled. This also fixes some bugs where RFKILL wasn't initialized and didn't respond to RFKILL key presses. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

deauth and disassoc frames are completely identical so there's little point in having two functions to send them rather than one that gets a parameter. This same a bit of code size. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

This reorders all frame sending functions to be at the top of the file. When reading the file, I tend to be looking at either the frame code or the state machine, and having them mixed in the file is confusing. When all frame sending is at the top the remainder of the file is more readable, in my opinion. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

When a scan is requested for non-STA interfaces, we simply fire off a scan, but for STA interfaces we shouldn't because they could be in the middle of an association.

This patch refactors some code and moves the scan RX function to scan.c. More importantly, however, it changes it so that the MLME's beacon/probe_resp functions aren't invoked when scanning so that we can remove a "if (scanning)" conditions from two places. There's a very slight behavioural change in this patch: now, when scanning, IBSS and mesh aren't updated even on the same channel.

Since we now use sdata pointers most of the time, using a netdev pointer here is somewhat artificial, use an sdata pointer instead. Replace a netdev-prefix in a few messages by a wiphy-prefix.

This reorders the mlme code a bit so we don't need all the forward function declarations. It also removes the ERP_INFO_USE_PROTECTION define that is unused, but otherwise contains no real changes.

During testing of the disassociation fixes, Tomas noticed that it was possible to run into a situation where you'd suddenly get a few "wlan0: dropped frame to <AP> (unauthorized port)" messages and I found this to be due to the AP's sta_info having been removed but netif_carrier_off not having removed/stopped traffic yet. To avoid that, stop the queue for the interface (and avoid bringing them up when another vif scans when they weren't up.)

This patch moves disassociation code from ieee80211_set_associated to ieee80211_set_disassoc. To reduce code duplication, it introduces the ieee80211_sta_send_apinfo function. Additionally, it fixes a lapse where BSS_CHANGED_HT wasn't set when notifying the driver of changes due to disassociation.

This patch makes the MLME cleanly disassociate from the current BSS when leaving it for a new one. This is not just nicer to the old AP (we're leaving it, might as well tell it!) but also required for some drivers that keep track of the station we're associated with, they'd get confused because they'd think we are associated with two APs.

This patch restructure the flow of disassociation and deauthentication flows to be consistent under all circumstances. It ensures that BA session is treated down before deauthentication or disassociation, adds the removal of the obsolete sta form station table and fixes a related bug (sta_info_destroy without sta_info_unlink) in ieee80211_associated() and reduce some code duplication Signed-off-by: Ron Rindjunsky <ron.rindjunsky@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Tomas Winkler <tomas.winkler@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

Since IE parsing is required for the mlme and mesh code, it's not a static function anyway, and it's much better to have it in util rather than the overly large mlme.c Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

The action frame length checks are one too small, there's not just an action code as the comment makes you believe, there's a category code too, and the category code is required in each action frame (hence part of IEEE80211_MIN_ACTION_SIZE).

When we receive information about a BSS we check at some point whether or not we think we're allowed to use the channel it is on, but we do that fairly late. I don't think we should do it that late, so do it earlier to avoid doing IBSS/mesh stuff on that channel and then getting confused because it's disabled.

The conf_tx callback currently needs to be atomic, this requirement is just because it can be called from scanning. This rearranges it slightly to only update while not scanning (which is fine, we'll be getting beacons when associated) and thus removes the atomic requirement.
