wilc1000: move wilc driver out of staging WILC1000 is an IEEE 802.11 b/g/n IoT link controller module. The WILC1000 connects to Microchip AVR/SMART MCUs, SMART MPUs, and other processors with minimal resource requirements with a simple SPI/SDIO-to-Wi-Fi interface. WILC1000 driver has been part of staging for few years. With contributions from the community, it has improved significantly. Full driver review has helped in achieving the current state.

Add new driver 'rndis_wlan' for wireless RNDIS devices. New driver for wireless RNDIS devices. So far only known chip that uses wireless RNDIS is Broadcom 4320. Driver detects all RNDIS devices that have RNDIS wireless physical medium.

This is a driver for wireless RNDIS devices.
These are USB based adapters found in devices such as:
Buffalo WLI-U2-KG125S
U.S. Robotics USR5421
Belkin F5D7051
Linksys WUSB54GSv2
Linksys WUSB54GSC
Asus WL169gE
Eminent EM4045
BT Voyager 1055
Linksys WUSB54GSv1
U.S. Robotics USR5420
BUFFALO WLI-USB-G54
All of these devices are based on Broadcom 4320 chip which is the
only wireless RNDIS chip known to date.
If you choose to build a module, it'll be called rndis_wlan.
mac80211-next: rtnetlink wifi simulation device This device takes over an existing network device and produces a new one that appears like a wireless connection, returning enough canned responses to nl80211 to satisfy a standard connection manager. If necessary, it can also be set up one step removed from an existing network device, such as through a vlan/80211Q or macvlan connection to not disrupt the existing network interface. To use it to wrap a bare ethernet connection: ip link add link eth0 name wlan0 type virt_wifi You may have to rename or otherwise hide the eth0 from your connection manager, as the original network link will become unusuable and only the wireless wrapper will be functional. This can also be combined with vlan or macvlan links on top of eth0 to share the network between distinct links, but that requires support outside the machine for accepting vlan-tagged packets or packets from multiple MAC addresses. This is being used for Google's Remote Android Virtual Device project, which runs Android devices in virtual machines. The standard network interfaces provided inside the virtual machines are all ethernet. However, Android is not interested in ethernet devices and would rather connect to a wireless interface. This patch allows the virtual machine guest to treat one of its network connections as wireless rather than ethernet, satisfying Android's network connection requirements. We believe this is a generally useful driver for simulating wireless network connections in other environments where a wireless connection is desired by some userspace process but is not available. This is distinct from other testing efforts such as mac80211_hwsim by being a cfg80211 device instead of mac80211 device, allowing straight pass-through on the data plane instead of forcing packaging of ethernet data into mac80211 frames.

This option adds support for ethernet connections to appear as if they
are wifi connections through a special rtnetlink device.
wireless: update top level wireless driver entry Change it to a menuconfig to give it some documentation, to refer users to our wireless wiki for extra resources and documentation. It seems our wiki is still obscure to some. Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <lrodriguez@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
