Subject: [RFC v2 00/23] orinoco: initiate conversion to cfg80211
Date: Sat, 30 May 2009 18:36:34 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1243705017-8784-1-git-send-email-kilroyd@googlemail.com> (raw)
I've completely refactorred since the last RFC, and switched to the
cfg80211 handlers for scanning, mode changing and giwrange.
Patches 1-5 modify cfg80211, mostly so it can advertise (the more
restrictive) orinoco capabilities correctly.
Patches 6-13 refactor the orinoco internal interfaces and initialisation
to make the switch to cfg80211 easier. The main thrust is to avoid using
net_device in the device drivers allowing us to register the net_device
later.
Patch 14 starts the cfg80211 conversion, before patches 15-19 cleanup
the fallout from the conversion.
Patches 20 though 23 convert a few of the WE handler to cfg80211
handlers.
The refactorring affects all the card and firmware types, but I'm only
able to test orinoco_cs with Agere firmware.

David Kilroy (23):
cfg80211: add wrapper function to get wiphy from priv pointer
cfg80211: Advertise ciphers via WE according to driver capability
cfg80211: allow drivers that can't scan for specific ssids
cfg80211: set WE encoding size based on available ciphers
cfg80211: infer WPA and WPA2 support from TKIP and CCMP
orinoco: Move firmware capability determination into hw.c
orinoco: Move card reading code into hw.c
orinoco: Move FID allocation to hw.c
orinoco: use dev_err in early initialisation routines
orinoco: firmware helpers should use dev_err and friends
orinoco: Replace net_device with orinoco_private in driver interfaces
orinoco: initialise independently of netdev
orinoco: Change set_tkip to use orinoco_private instead of hermes_t
orinoco: initiate cfg80211 conversion
orinoco: make firmware download less verbose
orinoco: move netdev interface creation to main driver
airport: store irq in card private structure
orinoco: Handle suspend/restore in core driver
orinoco: provide generic commit function
orinoco: convert mode setting to cfg80211
orinoco: convert scanning to cfg80211
orinoco: convert giwrange to cfg80211
orinoco: remove WE nickname support
