2010-07-08mac80211: remove wep dependencyJohn W. Linville
The current mac80211 code assumes that WEP is always available. If WEP fails to initialize, ieee80211_register_hw will always fail. In some cases (e.g. FIPS certification), the cryptography used by WEP is unavailable. However, in such cases there is no good reason why CCMP encryption (or even no link level encryption) cannot be used. So, this patch removes mac80211's assumption that WEP (and TKIP) will always be available for use. Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2009-07-24cfg80211: rework key operationJohannes Berg
This reworks the key operation in cfg80211, and now only allows, from userspace, configuring keys (via nl80211) after the connection has been established (in managed mode), the IBSS been joined (in IBSS mode), at any time (in AP[_VLAN] modes) or never for all the other modes. In order to do shared key authentication correctly, it is now possible to give a WEP key to the AUTH command. To configure static WEP keys, these are given to the CONNECT or IBSS_JOIN command directly, for a userspace SME it is assumed it will configure it properly after the connection has been established. Since mac80211 used to check the default key in IBSS mode to see whether or not the network is protected, it needs an update in that area, as well as an update to make use of the WEP key passed to auth() for shared key authentication.

2009-07-10mac80211: refactor the WEP code to be directly usableJohannes Berg
The new key work for cfg80211 will only give us the WEP key for shared auth to do that authentication, and not via the regular key settings, so we need to be able to encrypt a single frame in software, and that without a key struct. Thus, refactor the WEP code to not require a key structure but use the key, len and idx directly. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

2008-10-31mac80211: minor code cleanupsJohannes Berg
Nothing very interesting, some checkpatch inspired stuff, some other things. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2008-05-07mac80211: a few code cleanupsJohannes Berg
This has some code cleanups (some inspired by checkpatch), I got bored at probably a third of the output though so if somebody else wants to... Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2008-04-08mac80211: rename filesJohannes Berg
This patch renames all mac80211 files (except ieee80211_i.h) to get rid of the useless ieee80211_ prefix. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2008-03-06mac80211: split ieee80211_txrx_dataJohannes Berg
Split it into ieee80211_tx_data and ieee80211_rx_data to clarify usage/flag usage and remove the stupid union thing. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2008-02-29mac80211: split ieee80211_txrx_resultJohannes Berg
The _DROP result will need to be split in the RX path but not in the TX path, so for preparation split up the type into two types, one for RX and one for TX. Also make sure (via sparse) that they cannot be confused. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

This function is not used any more. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2007-10-10[PATCH] mac80211: consolidate encryptionJohannes Berg
Currently we run through all crypto handlers for each transmitted frame although we already know which one will be used. This changes the code to invoke only the needed handler. It also moves the wep code into wep.c. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2007-10-10[PATCH] mac80211: consolidate decryptionJohannes Berg
Currently, we run through all three crypto algorithms for each received frame even though we have previously determined which key we have and as such already know which algorithm will be used. Change it to invoke only the needed function. Also move the WEP decrypt handler to wep.c so that fewer functions need to be non-static.
