1a84f3fd14 [MAC80211]: ratelimit some RX messages
Many if not all of these messages can be triggered by sending
a few rogue frames which is trivially done and then we overflow
our logs.

2a8a9a88fc [MAC80211]: avoid copying packets to interfaces that are down
David Woodhouse noticed that under some circumstances the number of slab
allocations kept growing. After looking a bit, this seemed to happen
when you had a management mode interface that was *down*.

The reason for this is that when the device is down, all management
frames get queued to the in-kernel MLME (via ieee80211_sta_rx_mgmt) but
then the sta work is invoked but doesn't run when the netif is down.
When you then bring the interface up, all such frames are freed, but if
you change the mode all of them are lost because the skb queue is
reinitialised as soon as you go back to managed mode. The skb queue is
correctly cleared when the interface is brought down, but the code
doesn't account for the fact that it may be filled while it is not up.

This patch should fix the issue by simply ignoring all interfaces that
are down when going through the RX handlers.

Hopefully captured all single statement cases under net/. I'm
not too sure if there is some policy about #includes that are
"guaranteed" (ie., in the current tree) to be available through
some other #included header, so I just added linux/kernel.h to

7e9ed18874 [MAC80211]: improved short preamble handling
Similarly to CTS protection, whether short preambles are used for 802.11b
transmissions should be a per-subif setting, not device global.

For STAs, this patch makes short preamble handling automatic based on the ERP
IE. For APs, hostapd still uses the prism ioctls, but the write ioctl has been
restricted to AP-only subifs.

ieee80211_txrx_data.short_preamble (an unused field) was removed.

Unfortunately, some API changes were required for the following functions:
 - ieee80211_generic_frame_duration
 - ieee80211_rts_duration
 - ieee80211_ctstoself_duration
 - ieee80211_rts_get
 - ieee80211_ctstoself_get
Affected drivers were updated accordingly.

d5d08def92 [MAC80211]: Add LONG_RETRY flag to ieee80211_tx_control
mac80211 informs the driver what the short and long retry values are through
set_retry_limit(), but when packets are being transmitted it did not inform the
driver which of the 2 retry limits should actually be used.
Instead it sends the actual value, but for drivers that can only set the retry limit
and the register and in the descriptor need to indicate which of the limits should
be used this is not really useful.

This patch will add a IEEE80211_TXCTL_LONG_RETRY_LIMIT flag to the
ieee80211_tx_control structure. By default the short retry limit should be
used but if the flag is set the long retry should be used.

This does not prevent the driver to ignore the request for "no retry" packets,
but at least those will be send out with the short retry limit. But there is no
perfect cure for this problem.. :(

8a69aa93d5 [MAC80211]: STA reassociation improvements
My cheapy D-Link AP behaves strangely w.r.t reassociations.

The following sequence of commands causes me to lose association and to be
unable to regain it:

	ifconfig eth8 down
	ifconfig eth8 up
	iwconfig eth8 essid <x>

This is because mac80211 tries to reassociate, rather than just associate.
My AP replies with an association response (not a reassociation response...)
denying the association with code 12: "Association denied due to reason
outside the scope of this standard"

mac80211 tries this reassociation another 4 times or so before finally giving
up.

I see 2 problems here:
 1. bringing the interface down and up again should be resetting interface state
    i.e. after the interface is brought down, it should have no memory of if or
         where it was previously associated
 2. after the first reassociation fails, mac80211 should fall back to
    standard association for the next attempt

fd8bacc980 [PATCH] mac80211: regulatory domain cleanup
Currently, a function misnamed ieee80211_init_client() is used to handle
regulatory domain control. It is called from
ieee80211_register_hwmode(), which typically runs 2 or 3 times
(802.11a/b/g), but each time it iterates over all the modes.

This patch cleans this up and removes the confusion:
ieee80211_init_client was effectively renamed to
ieee80211_set_default_regdomain and is now run on a per-mode basis
(doesn't have to deal with netdevs). I also moved the regdomain handling
code into its own file and added some documentation.

63fc33ceb0 [PATCH] mac80211: improved 802.11g CTS protection
Currently, CTS protection is partially implemented twice:
 1. via prism2 ioctls, only used by hostapd
 2. via STA beacon parsing, recorded in sta.use_protection but never used
    (other than printed in debugfs)

Protection control should be implemented on a per-subif basis. For example,
a single physical device may be running a soft AP on one channel, and a STA
on another. The AP interface should use protection based on what hostapd told
it, and the STA interface should use protection based on beacon parsing.
These should operate independantly: one subif using protection should not
influence the other.

To implement this, I moved the use_protection flag into ieee80211_sub_if_data
and removed the device-global cts_protect_erp_frames flag.

I also made the PRISM2_PARAM_CTS_PROTECT_ERP_FRAMES write operation only
available for AP interfaces, to avoid any possibility of the user messing with
the behaviour of a STA.

5628221caf [PATCH] mac80211: ERP IE handling improvements
The "protection needed" flag is currently parsed out of the ERP IE in
beacons. This patch allows the ERP IE to be available at assocation time
and causes the appropriate actions to be performed earlier.

It is slightly complicated by the fact that most APs don't include the
ERP IE in association responses. To work around this, we store ERP
values in the ieee80211_sta_bss structure.

Also added some WLAN_ERP defines for use by upcoming patches.

The WEXT ioctl SIOCSIWRATE is not implemented in mac80211. This patch
adds the missing routine. It supports the 'auto' keyword, fixed rates,
and the combination of 'auto' and a fixed rate to select an upper bound.

Based on the patch from Mohamed Abbas <mabbas@linux.intel.com>.

4480f15ca6 [PATCH] mac80211: clarify some mac80211 things
The semantics of not having an add_interface callback are not well
defined, this callback is required because otherwise you cannot obtain
the requested MAC address of the device. Change the documentation to
reflect this, add a note about having no MAC address at all, add a
warning that mac_addr in struct ieee80211_if_init_conf can be NULL and
finally verify that a few callbacks are assigned by way of BUG_ON()

These aren't used anywhere (hostapd, wpa_supplicant) and until we
have a proper interface to the rate control algorithms they don't
make much sense either since e.g. rc80211_lowest won't honour them.

eef6caf8a9 [MAC80211]: Set low initial rate in rc80211_simple
The initial rate for STA's using rc80211_simple is set to the last
rate in the rate table. For situations for which the signal is weak,
the rate may be too high for authentication and association. Although
the rc80211_simple module will adjust the speed, the response may not
be fast enough for a successful connection. This modification sets the
initial rate to the lowest supported value.

mac80211 stops the tx queues during scans. This is wrong with respect
to the master deivce tx queue, since stopping it prevents any probes
from being sent during the scan. Instead, they accumulate in the queue
and are only sent after the scan is finished, which is obviously
wrong.

f11b0f0eb2 [PATCH] mac80211: fail back to use associate from reassociate
Some APs have strict checking between associate and reassociate. In
a case when an AP is restarted during a connection, it denies the
mac80211 reassoc request since this is a new association for the AP.
To fix this problem, we need to check the status code against
WLAN_STATUS_REASSOC_NO_ASSOC and clear ifsta->prev_bssid_set in
handling the association failure response.
