mac802154: basic ieee802.15.4 device structures The IEEE 802.15.4 Working Group focuses on the standardization of the bottom two layers of ISO/OSI protocol stack: Physical (PHY) and MAC. The MAC layer provides access control to a shared channel and reliable data delivery. The main functions performed by the MAC sublayer are: association and disassociation, security control, optional star network topology functions, such as beacon generation and Guaranteed Time Slots (GTSs) management, generation of ACK frames (if used), and, finally, application support for the two possible network topologies described in the standard. This is an initial commit which describes main data structures needed for ieee802.15.4 compatible devices representation in the MAC layer.

ieee802154: add header structs with endiannes and operations This patch provides a set of structures to represent 802.15.4 MAC headers, and a set of operations to push/pull/peek these structs from skbs. We cannot simply pointer-cast the skb MAC header pointer to these structs, because 802.15.4 headers are wildly variable - depending on the first three bytes, virtually all other fields of the header may be present or not, and be present with different lengths. The new header creation/parsing routines also support 802.15.4 security headers, which are currently not supported by the mac802154 implementation of the protocol.

mac802154: basic ieee802.15.4 device structures The IEEE 802.15.4 Working Group focuses on the standardization of the bottom two layers of ISO/OSI protocol stack: Physical (PHY) and MAC. The MAC layer provides access control to a shared channel and reliable data delivery. The main functions performed by the MAC sublayer are: association and disassociation, security control, optional star network topology functions, such as beacon generation and Guaranteed Time Slots (GTSs) management, generation of ACK frames (if used), and, finally, application support for the two possible network topologies described in the standard. This is an initial commit which describes main data structures needed for ieee802.15.4 compatible devices representation in the MAC layer.

ieee802154: add TX power control to wpan_phy Replace the current u8 transmit_power in wpan_phy with s8 transmit_power. The u8 field contained the actual tx power and a tolerance field, which no physical radio every used. Adjust sysfs entries to keep compatibility with userspace, give tolerances of +-1dB statically there. This patch only adds support for this in the at86rf230 driver and the RF212 chip. Configuration calculation for RF212 is also somewhat basic, but does the job - the RF212 datasheet gives a large table with suggested values for combinations of TX power and page/channel, if this does not work well, we might have to copy the whole table.

ieee802154: add support for setting CCA energy detection levels Since three of the four clear channel assesment modes make use of energy detection, provide an API to set the energy detection threshold. Driver support for this is available in at86rf230 for the RF212 chips. Since for these chips the minimal energy detection threshold depends on page and channel used, add a field to struct at86rf230_local that stores the minimal threshold. Actual ED thresholds are configured as offsets from this value. For RF212, setting the ED threshold will not work before a channel/page has been set due to the dependency of energy detection in the chip and the actual channel/page selected.

6lowpan: cleanup lowpan_header_decompress This patch changes the lowpan_header_decompress function by removing inklayer related information from parameters. This is currently for supporting short and extended address for iphc handling in 802154. We don't support short address handling anyway right now, but there exists already code for handling short addresses in lowpan_header_decompress. The address parameters are also changed to a void pointer, so 6LoWPAN linklayer specific code can put complex structures as these parameters and cast it again inside the generic code by evaluating linklayer type before. The order is also changed by destination address at first and then source address, which is the same like all others functions where destination is always the first, memcpy, dev_hard_header, lowpan_header_compress, etc. This patch also moves the fetching of iphc values from 6LoWPAN linklayer specific code into the generic branch.

ieee802154: rename ieee802154_dev to ieee802154_hw The identical struct of the wireless stack implementation is named ieee80211_hw. This is useful to name the variable hw instead of get confusing with netdev dev variable.

mac802154: add interframe spacing time handling This patch adds a new interframe spacing time handling into mac802154 layer. Interframe spacing time is a time period between each transmit. This patch adds a high resolution timer into mac802154 and starts on xmit complete with corresponding interframe spacing expire time if ifs_handling is true. We make it variable because it depends if interframe spacing time is handled by transceiver or mac802154. At the timer complete function we wake the netdev queue again. This avoids new frame transmit in range of interframe spacing time. For synced driver we add no handling of interframe spacing time. This is currently a lack of support in all synced xmit drivers. I suppose it's working because the latency of workqueue which is needed to call spi_sync. Signed-off-by: Alexander Aring <alex.aring@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>

mac802154: basic ieee802.15.4 device structures The IEEE 802.15.4 Working Group focuses on the standardization of the bottom two layers of ISO/OSI protocol stack: Physical (PHY) and MAC. The MAC layer provides access control to a shared channel and reliable data delivery. The main functions performed by the MAC sublayer are: association and disassociation, security control, optional star network topology functions, such as beacon generation and Guaranteed Time Slots (GTSs) management, generation of ACK frames (if used), and, finally, application support for the two possible network topologies described in the standard. This is an initial commit which describes main data structures needed for ieee802.15.4 compatible devices representation in the MAC layer.
