Subject: [PATCH v2 0/9] mac80211: templates for drivers

Hello,

there has been talk of creating templates in mac80211 for drivers and
here's what I have been thinking. I have also included wl1251 usage as
an example. Please comment.

v2:
o fix documentation typos in ieee80211_probereq_get() (johill)

Subject: [PATCH v2 9/9] wl1251: fix sleep related error paths in wl1251_op_bss_info_changed()

From: Kalle Valo <[email protected]>

In various cases wl1251_op_bss_info_changed() did not call elp_sleep()
after an error was noticed. Fix it by using correct goto label.

The bug was a theoretical one, in practise it doesn't matter because
if commands start returning errors there will be lots of other problems.

Subject: [PATCH v2 4/9] mac80211: create Probe Request template

From: Kalle Valo <[email protected]>

Certain type of hardware, for example wl1251 and wl1271, need a template
for the Probe Request. Create a function ieee80211_probereq_get() which
creates the template and drivers send it to hardware.

Subject: [PATCH v2 6/9] wl1251: cleanup scanning code

From: Kalle Valo <[email protected]>

The current scanning code wasn't following the preferred style. Move code
related to scan and trigger scan to commans to wl1251_cmd.c. Because
there's now less code in wl1251_hw_scan(), the function can be now
merged with wl1251_op_hw_scan().

Thanks to this, three functions can be now removed.

From: Kalle Valo <[email protected]>

To avoid duplicate code, use ieee80211_[pspoll|nullfunc]_get() to get
templates for PS Poll and Nullfunc frames in mlme.c.

Compile-tested only.

Subject: [PATCH v2 5/9] mac80211: use Probe Request template when sending a direct scan

From: Kalle Valo <[email protected]>

As mac80211 now has a separate function for creating Probe Request templates,
better to use it when sending direct Probe Requests to an AP. Only the
bssid needs to be updated in the template before sending it.

Subject: [PATCH v2 1/9] mac80211: add functions to create PS Poll and Nullfunc templates

From: Kalle Valo <[email protected]>

Some hardware, for example wl1251 and wl1271, handle the transmission
of power save related frames in hardware, but the driver is responsible
for creating the templates. It's better to create the templates in mac80211,
that way all drivers can benefit from this.

Add two new functions, ieee80211_pspoll_get() and ieee80211_nullfunc_get()
which drivers need to call to get the frame. Drivers are also responsible
for updating the templates after each association.

Also new struct ieee80211_hdr_3addr is added to ieee80211.h to make it
easy to calculate length of the Nullfunc frame.
