cfg80211: combine iwfreq implementations Until now we implemented iwfreq for managed mode, we needed to keep the implementations separate, but now that we have all versions implemented we can combine them and export just one handler.

cfg80211: self-contained wext handling where possible Finally! This is what you've all been waiting for! This patch makes cfg80211 take care of wext emulation _completely_ by itself, drivers that don't need things cfg80211 doesn't do yet don't even need to be aware of wireless extensions. This means we can also clean up mac80211's and iwm's Kconfig and make it possible to build them w/o wext now! RIP wext. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

cfg80211: remove unused wext handler exports A lot of code is dedicated to giving drivers the ability to use cfg80211's wext handlers without completely converting. However, only orinoco is currently using this, and it is only partially using it. We reduce the size of both the source and binary by removing those that nobody needs. If a driver shows up that needs it during conversion, we can add back those that are needed. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

cfg80211: validate channel settings across interfaces Currently, there's a problem that affects regulatory enforcement and connection stability, in that it is possible to switch the channel while connected to a network or joined to an IBSS. The problem comes from the fact that we only validate the channel against the current interface's type, not against any other interface. Thus, you have any type of interface up, additionally bring up a monitor mode interface and switch the channel on the monitor. This will obviously also switch the channel on the other interface. The problem now is that if you do that while sending beacons for IBSS mode, you can switch to a disabled channel or a channel that doesn't allow beaconing. Combined with a managed mode interface connected to an AP instead of an IBSS interface, you can easily break the connection that way. To fix this, this patch validates any channel change with all available interfaces, and disallows such changes on secondary interfaces if another interface is connected to an AP or joined to an IBSS.
