SMSC Ethernet Transceivers (LAN88710, LAN8710, LAN8720, LAN8187, LAN8700, LAN83C185) provide a mechanism to conserve power when the device is not connected to an active link partner (Energy Detect Mode).

2010-01-06sky2: Lock transmit queue while disabling deviceMike McCormack
netif_device_detach() does not take the tx_lock, so it's possible that a call to sky2_xmit_frame is still in progress after netif_device_detach() is complete. Take netif_tx_lock() to make sure all transmits have stopped while we're disabling the devices and that no other CPU is still transmitting a frame after we've disabling the device.

2010-01-03can/netlink: add CAN_CTRLMODE_ONE_SHOTMarc Kleine-Budde
This patch adds the flag CAN_CTRLMODE_ONE_SHOT. It is used as mask or flag in the "struct can_ctrlmode". It allows userspace via netlink to set a CAN controller into the special "one-shot" mode. In this mode, if supported by the CAN controller, it tries only once to deliver a CAN frame and aborts it if an error (e.g.: arbitration lost) happens.

2009-12-28mac80211: annotate sleeping driver opsKalle Valo
To make it easier to notice cases of calling sleeping ops in atomic context, annotate driver-ops.h with appropiate might_sleep() calls. At the same time, also document in mac80211.h the op functions with missing contexts. mac80211 doesn't seem to use get_tx_stats anywhere currently. Just to be on the safe side, I documented it to be atomic, but hopefully the op can be removed in the future. Compile-tested only.

2009-12-28cfg80211: add remain-on-channel commandJouni Malinen
Add new commands for requesting the driver to remain awake on a specified channel for the specified amount of time (and another command to cancel such an operation). This can be used to implement userspace-controlled off-channel operations, like Public Action frame exchange on another channel than the operation channel. The off-channel operation should behave similarly to scan, i.e. the local station (if associated) moves into power save mode to request the AP to buffer frames for it and then moves to the other channel to allow the off-channel operation to be completed. The duration parameter can be used to request enough time to receive a response from the target station.

2009-12-28mac80211: proper bss private data handlingJohannes Berg
cfg80211 offers private data for each BSS struct, which mac80211 uses. However, mac80211 uses internal and external (cfg80211) BSS pointers interchangeably and has a hack to put the cfg80211 bss struct into the private struct.

2009-12-28mac80211: split up and insert custom IEs correctlyJohannes Berg
Currently, we insert all user-specified IEs before the HT IE for association, and after the HT IE for probe requests. For association, that's correct only if the user-specified IEs are RSN only, incorrect in all other cases including WPA. Change this to split apart the user-specified IEs in two places for association: before the HT IE (e.g. RSN), after the HT IE (generally empty right now I think?) and after WMM (all other vendor-specific IEs). For probes, split the IEs in different places to be correct according to the spec. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2009-12-28mac80211: refactor associationJohannes Berg
Refactor the code to reserve an skb of the right size (instead of hoping 200 bytes are enough forever), and also put HT IE generation into an own function. Additionally, put the HT IE before the vendor-specific WMM IE. This still leaves things not quite ordered correctly, due to user-specified IEs, add a note about that for now.

2009-12-28mac80211: generalise work handlingJohannes Berg
In order to use auth/assoc for different purposes other than MLME, it needs to be split up. For other purposes, a generic work handling (potentially on another channel) will be useful. To achieve that, this patch moves much of the MLME work handling out of mlme into a new work API. The API can currently handle probing a specific AP, authentication and association. The MLME previously handled probe/authentication as one step and will continue to do so, but they are separate in the new work handling. Work items are RCU-managed to be able to check for existence of an item for a specific frame in the RX path, but they can be re-used which the MLME right now will do for its combined probe/auth step.

2009-12-28mac80211: generalise management work a bitJohannes Berg
As a first step of generalising management work, this renames a few things and puts more information directly into the struct so that auth/assoc need not access the BSS pointer as often -- in fact it can be removed from auth completely. Also since the previous patch made sure a new work item is used for association, we can make the different data a union.

2009-12-28mac80211: let cfg80211 manage auth stateJohannes Berg
mac80211 currently hangs on to the auth state by keeping it on the work list. That can lead to confusing behaviour like rejecting scans while authenticated to any AP (but not yet associated.) It also means that it needs to keep track of the work struct while associated for when it gets disassociated (or disassociates.) Change this to free the work struct after the authentication completed successfully and allocate a new one for associating, thereby letting cfg80211 manage the auth state. Another change necessary for this is to tell cfg80211 about all unicast deauth frames sent to mac80211 since now it can no longer check the auth state, but that check was racy anyway.

We've long lacked a good confirmation that frames have really gone out, e.g. before going off-channel for a scan.
