[PATCH] softmac: fix SIOCSIWAP There are some bugs in the current implementation of the SIOCSIWAP wext, for example that when you do it twice and it fails, it may still try another access point for some reason. This patch fixes this by introducing a new flag that tells the association code that the bssid that is in use was fixed by the user and shouldn't be deviated from.

[PATCH] softmac: ERP handling and driver-level notifications This patch implements ERP handling in softmac so that the drivers can support protection and preambles properly. I added a new struct, ieee80211softmac_bss_info, which is used for BSS-dependent variables like these. A new hook has been added (bssinfo_change), which allows the drivers to be notified when anything in bssinfo changes. I modified the txrates_change API to match the bssinfo_change API. The existing one is a little messy and the usefulness of providing the old rates is questionable (and can be implemented at driver level if really necessary). No drivers are using this API (yet), so this should be safe. Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org> Acked-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

[PATCH] softmac: suggest per-frame-type TX rate This patch is the first step towards rate control inside softmac. The txrates substructure has been extended to provide different fields for different types of packets (management/data, unicast/multicast). These fields are updated on association to values compatible with the access point we are associating to. Drivers can then use the new ieee80211softmac_suggest_txrate() function call when deciding which rate to transmit each frame at. This is immensely useful for ZD1211, and bcm can use it too. The user can still specify a rate through iwconfig, which is matched for all transmissions (assuming the rate they have specified is in the rate set required by the AP). At a later date, we can incorporate automatic rate management into the ieee80211softmac_recalc_txrates() function. This patch also removes the mcast_fallback field. Sam Leffler pointed out that this field is meaningless, because no driver will ever be retransmitting mcast frames (they are not acked).

[PATCH] softmac: Fix handling of authentication failure My router blew up earlier, but exhibited some interesting behaviour during its dying moments. It was broadcasting beacons but wouldn't respond to any authentication requests. I noticed that softmac wasn't playing nice with this, as I couldn't make it try to connect to other networks after it had timed out authenticating to my ill router. To resolve this, I modified the softmac event/notify API to pass the event code to the callback, so that callbacks being notified from IEEE80211SOFTMAC_EVENT_ANY masks can make some judgement. In this case, the ieee80211softmac_assoc callback needs to make a decision based upon whether the association passed or failed.
