Zhu Yi bb9f8692f5 iwmc3200wifi: Add new Intel Wireless Multicomm 802.11 driver
This driver supports Intel's full MAC wireless multicomm 802.11 hardware.
Although the hardware is a 802.11agn device, we currently only support
802.11ag, in managed and ad-hoc mode (no AP mode for now).

Kalle Valo 2f01a1f588 wl12xx: add driver
wl12xx is a driver for TI wl1251 802.11 chipset designed for embedded
devices, supporting both SDIO and SPI busses. Currently the driver
supports only SPI. Adding support 1253 (the 5 GHz version) should be
relatively easy. More information here:

Adrian Bunk 94d9842403 remove the strip driver
The latest trace about usage of this driver I found was an (unanswered)
request for help by a user trying to get it working reliably five years
ago with kernel 2.4 .

And even if it was still working the use cases of this driver (requiring
both the hardware and someone providing this kind of wireless network)
have become practically nonexisting.

This patch therefore removes the strip driver.

Jouni Malinen acc1e7a300 mac80211_hwsim: 802.11 radio simulator for mac80211
mac80211_hwsim is a Linux kernel module that can be used to simulate
arbitrary number of IEEE 802.11 radios for mac80211 on a single
device. It can be used to test most of the mac80211 functionality and
user space tools (e.g., hostapd and wpa_supplicant) in a way that
matches very closely with the normal case of using real WLAN
hardware. From the mac80211 view point, mac80211_hwsim is yet another
hardware driver, i.e., no changes to mac80211 are needed to use this
testing tool.

This patch adds a mac80211 based wireless driver for the rtl8180 and
rtl8185 PCI wireless cards.  Also included are some rtl8187 changes
required due to the relationship between that driver and this one.

Michael Wu is primarily responsible for the initial driver and rtl8185
support.  Andreas Merello provided the additional rtl8180 support.

Thanks to Jukka Ruohonen for the donating a rtl8185 card! It was very
helpful for the rtl8225z2 code.

Daniel Drake e85d0918b5 [PATCH] ZyDAS ZD1211 USB-WLAN driver
There are 60+ USB wifi adapters available on the market based on the ZyDAS
ZD1211 chip.

Unlike the predecessor (ZD1201), ZD1211 does not have a hardware MAC, so most
data operations are coordinated by the device driver. The ZD1211 chip sits
alongside an RF transceiver which is also controlled by the driver. Our driver
currently supports 2 RF types, we know of one other available in a few marketed
products which we will be supporting soon.

Our driver also supports the newer revision of ZD1211, called ZD1211B. The
initialization and RF operations are slightly different for the new revision,
but the main difference is 802.11e support. Our driver does not support the
QoS features yet, but we think we know how to use them.

This driver is based on ZyDAS's own GPL driver available from www.zydas.com.tw.
ZyDAS engineers have been responsive and supportive of our efforts, so thumbs
up to them. Additionally, the firmware is redistributable and they have
provided device specs.

This driver has been written primarily by Ulrich Kunitz and myself. Graham
Gower, Greg KH, Remco and Bryan Rittmeyer have also contributed. The
developers of ieee80211 and softmac have made our lives so much easier- thanks!

We maintain a small info-page: http://zd1211.ath.cx/wiki/DriverRewrite

If there is enough time for review, we would like to aim for inclusion in
2.6.18. The driver works nicely as a STA, and can connect to both open and
encrypted networks (we are using software-based encryption for now). We will
work towards supporting more advanced features in the future (ad-hoc, master
mode, 802.11a, ...).
