This patch makes enum from the defines previously dwelled inside
ieee80211_tx_control for better readability.
The patch also addes HT flags, for 802.11n drivers:
- IEEE80211_TXCTL_OFDM_HT: request low-level driver to use HT OFDM rates
- IEEE80211_TXCTL_GREEN_FIELD: use green field protection
- IEEE80211_TXCTL_DUP_DATA: duplicate data on both 20 Mhz channels
- IEEE80211_TXCTL_40_MHZ_WIDTH: send this frame in 40Mhz width
- IEEE80211_TXCTL_SHORT_GI: send this frame with short guard interval
Tx command can be a combination of any of these flags, along with
bitrate represented by ieee80211_rate. this will allow legacy drivers to
switch easily to any 11n rate representation.

if we need it. The unused TX-status rx-ring is also removed, as that's

This patch does not add a helper to ath5k_hw_reset(). It
does seem clear we need a re-shuffle around ath5k_hw_reset()
though as code in there is lengthy and already hitting 80-char

Previously missing beaconing support has been added. This might also help

Today I hit one of my new WARN_ONs in the mac80211 code because
a key wasn't being freed correctly. After wondering for a while
I finally tracked it to the fact that STA keys aren't added to

on that list, not just for default keys. This patch fixes that.

I noticed a bug I introduced when mesh is enabled: sta_info_destroy()
will end up calling cancel_timer() on a timer that has never been
initialized because the timer is only initialized in mesh_plink_alloc(),
not in sta_info_alloc(). This patch moves the initialization of all mesh
related fields into sta_info_alloc(), adds a bit of sanity checking to
the cfg80211 handlers and sta_info_insert() and makes mesh_plink_alloc()
a static helper function that is only used from the mesh plink code.

Quite a while ago I started this book. The required kernel-doc
patches have since gone into the tree so it is now possible to
build the book in mainline.
The actual documentation is still rather incomplete and not all

the documentation collaboratively, hopefully driver authors can
add documentation based on their experience with mac80211.

When we take down an interface, we need to remove the STA info
items that belong to it because otherwise we might invoke a
sta_notify() callback in the driver when we later delete the
STA entries, but in that case the driver will already have
removed its knowledge of the interface they belonged to leading
to confusion. Also, we could invoke the set_tim() callback after
the driver removed its knowledge of the interface, which can
lead to a crash if it requests a beacon with a then-invalid vif
pointer!
A side effect of this patch is that, because it was easier, it
disallows changing the WDS peer while an interface is up. Should
that actually be necessary, it can be added back, but the WDS
peer STA entry may not be added while the interface is UP so for
now I've simplified the WDS peer's STA entry lifetime management.

sta_info_add() has two functions: allocating a station info
structure and inserting it into the hash table/list. Splitting
these two functions allows allocating with GFP_KERNEL in many
places instead of GFP_ATOMIC which is now required by the RCU
protection. Additionally, in many places RCU protection is now
no longer needed at all because between sta_info_alloc() and
sta_info_insert() the caller owns the structure.
This fixes a few race conditions with setting initial flags
and similar, but not all (see comments in ieee80211_sta.c and
cfg.c). More documentation on the existing races will be in
a follow-up patch.
