Dan Williams 0b53167697 [PATCH] ipw2200: batch non-user-requested scan result notifications
ipw2200 makes extensive use of background scanning when unassociated or
down.  Unfortunately, the firmware sends scan completed events many
times per second, which the driver pushes directly up to userspace.
This needlessly wakes up processes listening for wireless events many
times per second.  Batch together scan completed events for
non-user-requested scans and send them up to userspace every 4 seconds.
Scan completed events resulting from an SIOCSIWSCAN call are pushed up
without delay.

Zhu Yi 094c4d2df6 [PATCH] ipw2200: enable wireless extension passive scan
This patch enables the ipw2200 driver to support passive scanning as
offered by the wireless extensions. For this, I enhanced the ipw_wx_set_scan
function in such a way that it differentiates between a passive and an
active scan request. Additionally, I added a new function called
ipw_request_passive_scan that is similiar to the ipw_request_scan
function to perform passive scans. Last but not least, I added a field
(in fact it is a work_struct struct) called request_passive_scan to
the ipw_priv struct.

Zhu Yi b9bec768c3 [PATCH] ipw2200: Fix kernel Oops if cmdlog debug is enabled
When command error log debug is enabled, we write every host command and

case. The patch adds struct cmdlog_host_cmd so that the buffer is allocated
from the stack.

Moving part of the debugging code from IPW_DEBUG to IPW_LL_DEBUG (low level
debugging) and make IPW_DEBUG be always enabled. IPW_LL_DEBUG still needs
to be enabled by selecting CONFIG_IPW2200_DEBUG. But it is highly
deprecated for normal users since it adds higher debug verbosity in driver
hot paths.

Well, this is not 100% if when the card fires two consecutive

Zhu Yi d685b8c226 [PATCH] ipw2200: Enable rtap interface for RF promiscuous mode while associated
With this patch, a new promiscuous mode is enabled. If the module is loaded
with the rtap_iface=1 module parameter, two interfaces will be created
(instead of just one).

The second interface is prefixed 'rtap' and provides received 802.11 frames
on the current channel to user space in a radiotap header format.

Example usage:

        % modprobe ipw2200 rtap_iface=1
        % iwconfig eth1 essid MyNetwork
        % dhcpcd eth1
        % tcpdump -i rtap0

If you do not specify 'rtap_iface=1' then the rtap interface will
not be created and you will need to turn it on via:

        % echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ipw2200/*/rtap_iface

You can filter out what type of information is passed to user space via
the rtap_filter sysfs entry.  Currently you can tell the driver to
transmit just the headers (which will provide the RADIOTAP and IEEE
802.11 header but not the payload), to filter based on frame control
type (Management, Control, or Data), and whether to report transmitted
frames, received frames, or both.

The transmit frame reporting is based on a patch by Stefan Rompf.

Filters can be get and set via a sysfs interface. For example, set the
filter to only send headers (0x7), don't report Tx'd frames (0x10), and
don't report data frames (0x100):

        % echo 0x117 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ipw2200/*/rtap_filter

All your packets are belong to us:

        % tethereal -n -i rtap0

Zhu Yi 0a7bcf261e [PATCH] ipw2200: stack reduction
Checking the stack usage of my kernel, showed that ipw2200 had a few bad
offenders. This is on i386 32-bit:

0x00002876 ipw_send_associate:                          544
0x000028ee ipw_send_associate:                          544
0x000027dc ipw_send_scan_request_ext:                   520
0x00002864 ipw_set_sensitivity:                         520
0x00005eac ipw_set_rsn_capa:                            520

The reason is the host_cmd structure is large (500 bytes). All other
functions currently using ipw_send_cmd() suffer from the same problem.
This patch introduces ipw_send_cmd_simple() for commands with no data
transfer, and ipw_send_cmd_pdu() for commands with a data payload and
makes the payload a pointer to the buffer passed in from the caller.

As an added bonus, the diffstat looks like this:

 ipw2200.c |  260 +++++++++++++++++++++-----------------------------------------
 ipw2200.h |    2
 2 files changed, 92 insertions(+), 170 deletions(-)

and it shrinks the module a lot as well:

Before:

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  75177    2472      44   77693   12f7d drivers/net/wireless/ipw2200.ko

After:

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  61363    2488      44   63895    f997 drivers/net/wireless/ipw2200.ko

So about a ~18% reduction in module size.

Put in fix for Ad-Hoc mode not passing through all packets (thanks to KKH)

Put in fix for fragmentation not working for fragment sizes between
441-464 bytes (thanks to Mohamed Abbas)

Fixed #592 problem of CONFIG_IEEE80211_WPA_MODULE not including WPA
support into the driver -- fixed as a result of no longer limiting WPAs
inclusion

Fixed #594 problem with user rates mask causing lack of association if
AP mandatory rate is masked out.  We now add back in as a supported rate
any mandatory rate.

Fixed #597 kernel oops due to calling dev_kfree_skb on an skb multiple times.

Added code to control LEDs that can be controlled through the wireless
NIC (vs. non-wireless HW interfaces) -- this is currently disabled by
default due to reports by some users of it hanging their laptop.

Added some more debug messages around fragmentation logic

Added locking around STATUS_HCMD_ACTIVE to prevent re-entry race
conditions

Moved ipw_adapter_restart to only execute on the priv->workqueue to
keep keyboard errors from occuring during adapter restart

Added CFG_BACKGROUND_SCAN to easily allow people to play with
background scanning implementations

Modified WPA logic to send WPA IE if one is set (vs. being based on
wpa_enabled)

Modified scan result logic to report WPA and RSN IEs if set (vs. being
based on wpa_enabled)

Fixed issues with endianess compatability between the host and
wireless adapter (thanks to York Liu and Yi Zhu)

Fixed problem with Ad-Hoc network creation causing a firmware error if
a scan was actively running (thanks to Mohamed Abbas)

James Ketrenos ea2b26e0a0 Catch ipw2200 up to equivelancy with v1.0.1
This commit contains the following fixes:

Fixed #559: iwconfig rate support (thanks to Florian Hackenberger)

Improved link signal quality calculation (thanks to Bill Moss)

Fixed a problem with sensitivity threshold during association

Added iwpriv for turning forcing long preamble support:
  % iwpriv eth1 set_preamble 1|0

Fixed #542 and #377 support for short preamble

Fixed locked BSSID reporting channel number (thanks to Pedro
Ramalhais)

Fixed type-o with scan watchdog timeout message (thanks to Pedro
Ramalhais)

Changed logic for displaying get_mode output so the code is easier to
follow (thanks to Pedro Ramalhais)

Added initial support for WPA (thanks to Yi Zhu) -- tested with
wpa_supplicant (either tip w/ ipw driver, or with -Dipw2100) with
both CCMP and TKIP

Fixed problem with CCMP not working due to uninitialized 802.11
header fields (thanks to Pedro Ramalhais)

Jeff Garzik 0edd5b4491 [wireless ieee80211,ipw2200] Lindent source code
No code changes, just Lindent + manual fixups.

This prepares us for updating to the latest Intel driver code, plus
gives the source code a nice facelift.
