Subject: [RFC][RFT][PATCH 0/5 v5] ar9170: ar9170 driver (aka mac80211's otus)
Date: Fri, 20 Mar 2009 20:36:08 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200903202036.09255.chunkeey@web.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <200903170408.12626.chunkeey@web.de>

Based on the number of mails I got, this driver should be ready for inclusion.
So, this is probably the last RFC and the official patches will follow on
sunday (only if no one finds a bug that needs to be fixed ASAP.)

Changes:
	- enabled HW crypto acceleration (on by default)
	- report noise and signal levels in dBm
	- sniffer/promiscouous mode now works in BSS
	- LED code rework
	- fixed last remaining checkpatch.pl ERRORs

Features:
	- managed and (full) monitor mode
		(other modes may work too... but were not tested)
	- QoS 
	- tx status => automatic rate control
	- offload for ccmp, tkip & wep
	- programmable LEDs

Note: The whole patch series can be found in the linux-wireless archive.
e.g: http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&r=1&b=200903&w=2 

Regards,
	Chr
