Subject: [PATCH 0/8] mac80211/iwlwifi: integrate IEEE802.11n A-MPDU Rx MLME
Date: Mon, 17 Dec 2007 17:57:41 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <11979070692599-git-send-email-ron.rindjunsky@intel.com> (raw)

This series of patches contains implementation for the IEEE802.11n 
aggregated MPDUs (A-MPDU) MLME. The series handles Rx A-MPDU (recipient party).

Please notice:
===============
Patch "mac80211: A-MPDU Rx adding BAR handling capability" depends on patch 
"mac80211: pass in PS_POLL frames" that was already sent as a stand alone patch.
Further more, the latter patch is needed for this series to function well.

Notes to this series:
======================
This series of patches splits into:
 - patches 1-7 add 802.11n Rx A-MPDU MLME support to mac80211.
 - patch 8 demonstrates the use of the above mac80211's MLME through iwl4965 low level driver

The patches in the series should not be treated as stand alone patches,
but as a complete MLME according to IEEE802.11n spec, although separation
to patches by subjects was made for ease of handling.

The patches do _not_ break any existing driver.
Patches were made (and tested to work) with wireless branch 2.6.24-rc3 (#everything)

The MLME framework includes the following:
- A-MPDU MLME (for aggregated Rx per STA/TID)
- addBA request support.
- delBA request support (recipient party).
- Block Ack Request (BAR) support.
- A-MPDU reordering.
