The maximum sleep interval, for powersave purposes, is
determined by the DTIM period (it may not be larger)
and the required networking latency (it must be small
enough to fulfil those constraints).
This makes mac80211 calculate the maximum sleep interval
based on those constraints, and pass it to the driver.
Then the driver should instruct the device to sleep at
most that long.
Note that the device is responsible for aligning the
maximum sleep interval between DTIMs, we make sure it's
not longer but it needs to make sure it's between them.
Also, group some powersave documentation together and
make it more explicit that we support managed mode only,
and no IBSS powersaving (yet).

Just setting IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_PS should be sufficient
for changes in the power saving things. The driver already
tells us whether it wants notification of dynps via the

Stephen Rothwell reported these warnings from a 32-bit build:
net/mac80211/mlme.c:1771: warning: left shift count >= width of type
net/mac80211/mlme.c:1772: warning: left shift count >= width of type
net/mac80211/mlme.c:1773: warning: left shift count >= width of type
net/mac80211/mlme.c:1774: warning: left shift count >= width of type
net/mac80211/mlme.c:1775: warning: left shift count >= width of type
This shows a bug in my code -- BIT(X) uses just "1 << X" which means
a 32-bit integer on 32-bit platforms, but the code here needs a u64
on all platforms. Fix this by using "1ULL << X" instead of BIT(X).
Thanks Stephen!

rndis_wext_link_change() might be called from rndis_command() at
initialization stage and priv->workqueue/priv->work have not been

Fix by initializing workqueue/workers in rndis_wext_bind() before

Patch removes the "manual radio disable" parameter
as there is no usage scenario of disabling radio using this module parameter.
User can use iwconfig's txpower to enable and disable radio.
This module parameter also does not work as expected. During module load
the status of radio is set, the radio is not actually disabled. Even so,
the moment mac80211 requests the interface to be up the radio will be
enabled again.

This patch clean up the code for NL80211_IFTYPE_MONITOR mode,
priv->iw_mode is set in add_interface, but add_interface is never called
for monitor mode.
The only way mac80211 informs us about monitor mode is through
configuring filter; since iw_mode will never set to

NL80211_IFTYPE_MONITOR and replace with iwl_is_monitor_mode() function

The TIM IE must not be shorter than 4 bytes, so verify that
when parsing it and use the proper type. To ease that adjust
struct ieee80211_tim_ie to have a virtual bitmap of size
at least 1.
Also check that the TIM IE is actually present before trying
to parse it!
Because other people may need the function, make it a static
inline in ieee80211.h.
(The original "mac80211: validate TIM IE length" was a minimal fix for
2.6.30. This purports to be the full, correct fix. -- JWL)

The fact that these are exported is a technical detail
of the conversion period -- we don't want anybody to
start relying on these. Ultimately we want things to
use cfg80211 only, and once everything that is in wext
is converted to cfg80211 drivers will not need to touch
wext _at all_.

Add new nl80211 attributes that can be used with NL80211_CMD_SET_WIPHY
and NL80211_CMD_GET_WIPHY to manage fragmentation/RTS threshold and
retry limits.
Since these values are stored in struct wiphy, remove the local copy
from mac80211 where feasible (frag & rts threshold). The retry limits
are currently needed in struct ieee80211_conf, but these could be
eventually removed since the driver should have access to the values
in struct wiphy.

This patch adds support for configuring HT40 channels
and receiving HT40 to ar9170. Receiving aggregation
doesn't seem to work right now, so it's not enabled.
Same goes for TX aggregation, but that probably needs
even more work.
With this, I can receive roughly 33 Mbits/sec.
The HT capabilities are a little odd, I tried following
otus here -- in particular having SGI_40 but not SGI_20
is a little weird but afaict that's what otus does.
