Thanks for your patience.
To answer Pavel's question from the other email:
I was hoping that Intel would resend their patches, rediffed to the
latest ieee80211 branch. I didn't want to apply all these cleanups,
which would then force Intel to rediff _yet again_.
However, sufficient time has passed without an Intel update, so I'll go
ahead and start applying this stuff.
Patches have to be applied in this order (also specified in 'series'
file):
debug-macros-cleanup.patch
applied
ipw2100-cleanup-prefixes.patch
applied
ipw2100-cleanup-debug-prints.patch
applied
ipw2100-cleanup-static.patch
Various cleanups from Pavel Machek, Adrian Bunk and us.
applied
ipw2100-fix-config-promisc.patch
CONFIG_IPW2100_PROMISC should be CONFIG_IPW2100_MONITOR.
applied
ipw2100-open-fix.patch
Imre Deak's patch for enabling carrier after an open when card is
already associated.
applied
ipw2200-remove-support-for-obsolete-kernels.patch
applied
ipw2200-remove-trap-and-unused-stuff.patch
Cleanups from Pavel Machek.
applied
add-new-definitions.patch
applied
convert-defines-to-enums.patch
Adds all definitions from 802.11x specs (from Gertjan van Wingerde.)
applied
endian-aware-types.patch
Michael Wu's patch for replacing u16 with __le16/__be16.
applied
ieee-dev-alignment.patch
ipw-fix-after-ieee-dev-alignment.patch
Organizes the priv field of struct ieee80211_device in a similar manner
as the priv field in struct net_device. Makes drivers use
ieee80211_device instead of net_device.
configuration-struct.patch
ipw-fix-after-configuration-struct.patch
Cleanup and improvements of ieee80211 configuration. Adds support for
switching off software fragmentation, fixes MSDU encryption.
add-seq-number.patch
Adds sequence numbers to transmitted frames.
any security implications here, as with TCP sequence numbers?
separate-from-ethernet.patch
Makes the 802.11 layer independent of ethernet. 802.11 frames are no
longer transformed from ethernet frames.
eth_p_802_11-ethertype.patch
fix-packet_socket-arp.patch
Fixes of things broken by the previous patch. New ETH_P_802_11 ethertype
is introduced, packet socket is fixed.
fix-definitions-for-xmit.patch
ipw-fix-after-definitions-for-xmit.patch
Preparation for the next patch. Cleanup and fix of rate and modulation
constants and variables.
xmit-skb.patch
ipw-fix-after-xmit-skb.patch
Support for sending fragments one by one and for sending management
frames. Wiped out struct ieee80211_txb.
This patch needs to be improved - comments are greatly appreciated.
recv-skb.patch
ipw-fix-after-recv-skb.patch
More generic handling of received frames. Initial support for handling
of incoming management frames.
networks.patch
ipw-fix-after-networks.patch
Hashtable for detected networks. Introduced functions for manipulation
with the hashtable to allow support of devices performing the whole
scanning in firmware.
Can any of these patches be moved above the ieee80211_device patch?
We'll let these stew a bit...
