For example, we stop the Tx queue during a software scan so that\nall the Tx packets will be queued by the stack. We also drop frames not\nrelated to scan in the software scan process. But these are not true for\nhardware scan.\n\nSome wireless hardwares (for example iwl3945/4965) has the ability to\nperform the whole scan process by hardware and/or firmware. The hardware\nscan is relative powerful in that it tries to maintain normal network\ntraffic while doing a scan in the background. Some drivers (i.e iwlwifi)\ndo provide a way to tune the hardware scan parameters (for example if the\nSTA is associated, what\u0027s the max time could the STA leave from the\nassociated channel, how long the scans get suspended after returning to\nthe service channel, etc). But basically this is transparent to the\nstack. mac80211 should not stop Tx queues or drop Rx packets during a\nhardware scan.\n\nThis patch resolves the above problem by spliting the current scan\nindicator local-\u003esta_scanning into local-\u003esta_sw_scanning and\nlocal-\u003esta_hw_scanning. It then changes the scan related code to be aware\nof hardware scan or software scan in various places. With this patch,\niwlwifi performs much better in the scan-while-associated condition and\ndisable_hw_scan\u003d1 should never be required.\n\nCc: Mohamed Abbas \u003cmohamed.abbas@intel.com\u003e\nCc: Ben Cahill \u003cben.m.cahill@intel.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Zhu Yi \u003cyi.zhu@intel.com\u003e\nAcked-by: Johannes Berg \u003cjohannes@sipsolutions.net\u003e\nSigned-off-by: John W.

Also, the start()/stop()\nordering changed, start() is now called *before* any\nadd_interface() as it really should be, and stop() after\nany remove_interface().\n\nThe patch also changes the behaviour of setting the bssid\nto multicast for scanning when IEEE80211_HW_NO_PROBE_FILTERING\nis set; the IEEE80211_HW_NO_PROBE_FILTERING flag is removed\nand the filter flag FIF_BCN_PRBRESP_PROMISC introduced.\nThis is a lot more efficient for hardware like b43 that\nsupports it and other hardware can still set the BSSID\nto all-ones.\n\nDriver modifications by Johannes Berg (b43 \u0026 iwlwifi), Michael Wu\n(rtl8187, adm8211, and p54), Larry Finger (b43legacy), and\nIvo van Doorn (rt2x00).\n\nSigned-off-by: Johannes Berg \u003cjohannes@sipsolutions.net\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Michael Wu \u003cflamingice@sourmilk.net\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Larry Finger \u003cLarry.Finger@lwfinger.net\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Ivo van Doorn \u003cIvDoorn@gmail.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: John W.

Also, it should go some way\n towards better suspend/resume support, in any case the\n routines used here could be used for that as well.\n Additionally, this makes the driver interface nicer, keys\n for a specific local MAC address are only ever present\n while an interface with that MAC address is enabled.\n\n 2) Change driver set_key() callback interface to allow only\n return values of -ENOSPC, -EOPNOTSUPP and 0, warn on all\n other return values. This allows debugging the stack when\n a driver notices it\u0027s handed a key while it is down.\n\n 3) Invert the flag meaning to KEY_FLAG_UPLOADED_TO_HARDWARE.\n\n 4) Remove REMOVE_ALL_KEYS command as it isn\u0027t used nor do we\n want to use it, we\u0027ll use DISABLE_KEY for each key.

After looking a bit, this seemed to happen\nwhen you had a management mode interface that was *down*.\n\nThe reason for this is that when the device is down, all management\nframes get queued to the in-kernel MLME (via ieee80211_sta_rx_mgmt) but\nthen the sta work is invoked but doesn\u0027t run when the netif is down.\nWhen you then bring the interface up, all such frames are freed, but if\nyou change the mode all of them are lost because the skb queue is\nreinitialised as soon as you go back to managed mode. The skb queue is\ncorrectly cleared when the interface is brought down, but the code\ndoesn\u0027t account for the fact that it may be filled while it is not up.\n\nThis patch should fix the issue by simply ignoring all interfaces that\nare down when going through the RX handlers.\n\nSigned-off-by: Johannes Berg \u003cjohannes@sipsolutions.net\u003e\nAcked-by: Michael Wu \u003cflamingice@sourmilk.net\u003e\nSigned-off-by: John W.
