2012-06-26mac802154: add wpan device-class supportalex.bluesman.smirnov@gmail.com
Every real 802.15.4 transceiver, which works with software MAC layer, can be classified as a wpan device in this stack. So the wpan device implementation provides missing link in datapath between the device drivers and the Linux network queue. According to the IEEE 802.15.4 standard each packet can be one of the following types: - beacon - MAC layer command - ACK - data This patch adds support for the data packet-type only, but this is enough to perform data transmission and receiving over radio.

2012-05-16mac802154: monitor device supportalex.bluesman.smirnov@gmail.com
Support for monitor device intended to capture all the network activity. This interface could be used by networks sniffers and is already supported by WireShark. That's a good test point to check that basic MAC support works. Signed-off-by: Alexander Smirnov <alex.bluesman.smirnov@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2012-05-16ieee802154: interface type to be addedalex.bluesman.smirnov@gmail.com
This stack implementation distinguishes several types of slave interfaces. Another parameter to 'add_iface_' function is added to clarify the interface type is going to be registered.

2009-11-06ieee802154: add support for creation/removal of logic interfacesDmitry Eremin-Solenikov
Add support for two more NL802154 commands: ADD_IFACE and DEL_IFACE, thus allowing creation and removal of logic WPAN interfaces on the top of wpan-phy. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Eremin-Solenikov <dbaryshkov@gmail.com>

Add nl802154 command to get information about PHY's present in the system. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Eremin-Solenikov <dbaryshkov@gmail.com>
2009-08-19ieee802154: add support for channel pages from IEEE 802.15.4-2006Dmitry Eremin-Solenikov
IEEE 802.15.4-2006 adds new concept: channel pages, which can contain several channels. Add support for channel pages in the API and in the fakehard driver. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Eremin-Solenikov <dbaryshkov@gmail.com>

2009-06-09net: add NL802154 interface for configuration of 802.15.4 devicesSergey Lapin
Add a netlink interface for configuration of IEEE 802.15.4 device. Also this interface specifies events notification sent by devices towards higher layers.
