2007-04-28[PATCH] Update my email address from jkmaline@cc.hut.fi to j@w1.fiJouni Malinen
After 13 years of use, it looks like my email address is finally going to disappear. While this is likely to drop the amount of incoming spam greatly ;-), it may also affect more appropriate messages, so let's update my email address in various places. In addition, Host AP mailing list is subscribers-only and linux-wireless can also be used for discussing issues related to this driver which is now shown in MAINTAINERS.

2007-04-25[SK_BUFF]: Convert skb->end to sk_buff_data_tArnaldo Carvalho de Melo

2007-04-25[SK_BUFF]: Convert skb->tail to sk_buff_data_tArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
So that it is also an offset from skb->head, reduces its size from 8 to 4 bytes on 64bit architectures, allowing us to combine the 4 bytes hole left by the layer headers conversion, reducing struct sk_buff size to 256 bytes, i.e. 4 64byte cachelines, and since the sk_buff slab cache is SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN... :-) Many calculations that previously required that skb->{transport,network, mac}_header be first converted to a pointer now can be done directly, being meaningful as offsets or pointers.

2006-12-02[PATCH] ieee80211: Drop and count duplicate data frames to remove 'replay ↵Larry Finger
detected' log messages In the SoftMAC version of the IEEE 802.11 stack, not all duplicate messages are detected. For the most part, there is no difficulty; however for TKIP and CCMP encryption, the duplicates result in a "replay detected" log message where the received and previous values of the TSC are identical. This change adds a new variable to the ieee80211_device structure that holds the 'seq_ctl' value for the previous frame. When a new frame repeats the value, the frame is dropped and the appropriate counter is incremented. Signed-off-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

2006-12-02[PATCH] ieee80211: Move IV/ICV stripping into ieee80211_rxDaniel Drake
This patch adds a host_strip_iv_icv flag to ieee80211 which indicates that ieee80211_rx should strip the IV/ICV/other security features from the payload. This saves on some memmove() calls in the driver and seems like something that belongs in the stack as it can be used by bcm43xx, ipw2200, and zd1211rw I will submit the ipw2200 patch separately as it needs testing.

2006-10-31[PATCH] ieee80211: don't flood log with errorsJiri Benc
The "ieee80211: Workaround malformed 802.11 frames from AP" patch (see http://kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-2.6.git;a=commit;h=f09fc44d8c25f22c4d985bb93857338ed02feac6 ) fixes the problem with some buggy APs but also converts debug message into an error one. This floods the log with errors when you are near such AP (you get a message for every beacon). This patch reverts the error message back to the debug one.

2006-07-27[PATCH] ieee80211: small ERP handling additionsDaniel Drake
This adds a flag to the ieee80211_network structure which indicates whether the stored erp_value is valid (a check against 0 is not enough, since an ERP of 0 is valid and very meaningful). I also added the ERP IE bit-definitions to ieee80211.h. This is needed by some upcoming softmac patches.

ieee80211_rx_mgt Version 2 of the patch. Added checks for version 0 and proper from/to DS bits. Even in promisc mode we won't receive packets from another BSSes. bcm43xx_rx() contains code to filter out packets from foreign BSSes and decide whether to call ieee80211_rx or ieee80211_rx_mgt.

2006-03-17[PATCH] ieee80211: Don't update network statistics from off-channel packets.James Ketrenos
This patch fixes a problem in the ieee80211 probe response and beacon reception code that would use the packet statistics for a network even if they were received on a channel other than that which the network exists on. This causes a problem in overlapping channels where, for example, a strong AP on channel 2 could have its beacons received on channels 1 and 3, but at much lower signal levels. If scanning was done sequentially, this means the beacon received on channel 3 would update the AP's signal level as being much lower than it really is, which subsequently could cause that AP to be passed over and an alternate AP selected.

Fix QoS is not active even the network and the card is QOS enabled. The problem is we pass the wrong ieee80211_network address to ipw_handle_beacon/ipw_handle_probe_response, thus the ieee80211_network->qos_data.active will not be set, causing the driver not sending QoS frames at all.
