2011-11-02libertas: ensure we clean up a scan request properlyAndres Salomon
Commit 2e30168b ("libertas: terminate scan when stopping interface") adds cleanup code to lbs_eth_stop to call cfg80211_scan_done if there's an outstanding cfg80211_scan_request. However, it assumes that the scan request was allocated via the cfg80211 stack. Libertas has its own internal allocation method, kept track of with priv->internal_scan. This doesn't set scan_req->wiphy, amongst other things, which results in hitting a BUG() when we call cfg80211_scan_done on the request. This provides a function to take care of the low-level scan_req cleanup details. We simply call that to deal with finishing up scan requests. The bug we were hitting was: [ 964.321495] kernel BUG at net/wireless/core.h:87! [ 964.329970] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000 [ 964.341963] pgd = dcf80000 ...

2011-08-09libertas: disable functionality when interface is downDaniel Drake
Modify the driver so that it does not function when the interface is down, in preparation for runtime power management. No commands can be run while the interface is down, so the ndo_dev_stop routine now directly does all necessary work (including asking the device to disconnect from the network and disabling multicast functionality) directly. power_save and power_restore hooks are added meaning that card drivers can take steps to turn the device off when the interface is down. The MAC address can now only be changed when all interfaces are down; the new address will be programmed when an interface gets brought up. This matches mac80211 behaviour. Also, some small cleanups/simplifications were made in the surrounding device handling logic. Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake <dsd@laptop.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2010-07-27libertas: remove Beacon ControlDan Williams
For now; it's a pretty easy command to hook up and whenever OLPC figures out how they want the userspace interface to look (ie, not iwpriv commands) we can easily add it back in. Since the cfg80211 conversion it wasn't working anyway. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dcbw@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

Convert to a full direct command; previous code rolled a direct command by hand but left the original indirect command code intact but disabled. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dcbw@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2010-06-23Libertas: Added 11d support using cfg80211Kiran Divekar
Added 11d support for libertas driver using cfg80211. This is based on Holger Shurig's initial work to add cfg80211 support libertas. (https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/64286/) Please let us know, if there are any improvements comments. Code is added to send 11d enable command to firmware while initialisation and pass 11d specific information to firmware when notifier handler is called by cfg80211.
