Each bitmap is 32 bit long, each bit\nrepresenting one antenna, starting with antenna 1 at the first bit. If an\nantenna bit is set, this means the driver is allowed to use this antenna for RX\nor TX respectively; if the bit is not set the hardware is not allowed to use\nthis antenna.\n\nUsing bitmaps has the benefit of allowing for a flexible configuration\ninterface which can support many different configurations and which can be used\nfor 802.11n as well as non-802.11n devices. Instead of relying on some hardware\nspecific assumptions, drivers can use this information to know which antennas\nare actually attached to the system and derive their capabilities based on\nthat.\n\n802.11n devices should enable or disable chains, based on which antennas are\npresent (If all antennas belonging to a particular chain are disabled, the\nentire chain should be disabled). HT capabilities (like STBC, TX Beamforming,\nAntenna selection) should be calculated based on the available chains after\napplying the antenna masks. Should a 802.11n device have diversity antennas\nattached to one of their chains, diversity can be enabled or disabled based on\nthe antenna information.\n\nNon-802.11n drivers can use the antenna masks to select RX and TX antennas and\nto enable or disable antenna diversity.\n\nWhile covering chainmasks for 802.11n and the standard \"legacy\" modes \"fixed\nantenna 1\", \"fixed antenna 2\" and \"diversity\" this API also allows more rare,\nbut useful configurations as follows:\n\n1) Send on antenna 1, receive on antenna 2 (or vice versa). This can be used to\nhave a low gain antenna for TX in order to keep within the regulatory\nconstraints and a high gain antenna for RX in order to receive weaker signals\n(\"speak softly, but listen harder\"). This can be useful for building long-shot\noutdoor links. Another usage of this setup is having a low-noise pre-amplifier\non antenna 1 and a power amplifier on the other antenna. This way transmit\nnoise is mostly kept out of the low noise receive channel.\n(This would be bitmaps: tx 1 rx 2).\n\n2) Another similar setup is: Use RX diversity on both antennas, but always send\non antenna 1. Again that would allow us to benefit from a higher gain RX\nantenna, while staying within the legal limits.\n(This would be: tx 0 rx 3).\n\n3) And finally there can be special experimental setups in research and\ndevelopment even with pre 802.11n hardware where more than 2 antennas are\navailable. It\u0027s good to keep the API simple, yet flexible.\n\nSigned-off-by: Bruno Randolf \u003cbr1@einfach.org\u003e\n\n--\nv7:\tMade bitmasks 32 bit wide and rebased to latest wireless-testing.\nSigned-off-by: John W.

There\u0027s one userland API\nchange and one API addition. The API change is that\nnow SET_WIPHY must be called with virtual interface\nindex rather than only wiphy index in order to take\neffect for that interface -- luckily all current\nusers (hostapd) do that. For monitor interfaces, the\nold setting is preserved, but monitors are always\nslaved to other devices anyway so no guarantees.\n\nThe second userland API change is the introduction\nof a per virtual interface SET_CHANNEL command, that\nhostapd should use going forward to make it easier\nto understand what\u0027s going on (it can automatically\ndetect a kernel with this command).\n\nOther than mac80211, no existing cfg80211 drivers\nare affected by this change because they only allow\na single virtual interface.\n\nmac80211, however, now needs to be aware that the\nchannel settings are per interface now, and needs\nto disallow (for now) real multi-channel operation,\nwhich is another important part of this patch.\n\nOne of the immediate benefits is that you can now\nstart hostapd to operate on a hardware that already\nhas a connection on another virtual interface, as\nlong as you specify the same channel.\n\nNote that two things are left unhandled (this is an\nimprovement -- not a complete fix):\n\n * different HT/no-HT modes\n\n currently you could start an HT AP and then\n connect to a non-HT network on the same channel\n which would configure the hardware for no HT;\n that can be fixed fairly easily\n\n * CSA\n\n An AP we\u0027re connected to on a virtual interface\n might indicate switching channels, and in that\n case we would follow it, regardless of how many\n other interfaces are operating; this requires\n more effort to fix but is pretty rare after all\n\nSigned-off-by: Johannes Berg \u003cjohannes@sipsolutions.net\u003e\nSigned-off-by: John W.

Prepare for\nthis change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those\nheaders directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion\nneeds to touch large number of source files, the following script is\nused as the basis of conversion.\n\n http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py\n\nThe script does the followings.\n\n* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that\n only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,\n gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.\n\n* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include\n blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms\n to its surrounding. It\u0027s put in the include block which contains\n core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -\n alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there\n doesn\u0027t seem to be any matching order.\n\n* If the script can\u0027t find a place to put a new include (mostly\n because the file doesn\u0027t have fitting include block), it prints out\n an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the\n file.\n\nThe conversion was done in the following steps.\n\n1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly\n over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h\n and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400\n files.\n\n2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn\u0027t need the inclusion,\n some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or\n embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added\n inclusions to around 150 files.\n\n3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits\n from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.\n\n4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.\n e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab\n APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.\n\n5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically\n editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h\n files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h\n inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually\n wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each\n slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as\n necessary.\n\n6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.\n\n7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures\n were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my\n distributed build env didn\u0027t work with gcov compiles) and a few\n more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things\n build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).\n\n * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.\n * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig\n * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig\n * ia64 SMP allmodconfig\n * s390 SMP allmodconfig\n * alpha SMP allmodconfig\n * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig\n\n8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as\n a separate patch and serve as bisection point.\n\nGiven the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step\n6, I\u0027m fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.\nIf there is a breakage, it\u0027s likely to be something in one of the arch\nheaders which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of\nthe specific arch.\n\nSigned-off-by: Tejun Heo \u003ctj@kernel.org\u003e\nGuess-its-ok-by: Christoph Lameter \u003ccl@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nCc: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@redhat.com\u003e\nCc: Lee Schermerhorn \u003cLee.Schermerhorn@hp.com\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "d6dc1a386358979e12366d1f35eeb68fc181e101", "tree": "4b65ba21328d6984d008b62795dd60d99c350632", "parents": [ "921ca03c8f8e982f27fc406bc301caf2196b99f7" ], "author": { "name": "Juuso Oikarinen", "email": "juuso.oikarinen@nokia.com", "time": "Tue Mar 23 09:02:33 2010 +0200" }, "committer": { "name": "John W.

Power save parameters are mostly used for\ndebugging, so debugfs is better, more flexible, interface for this.\nFor example, wpa_supplicant currently doesn\u0027t configure anything related\nto power save mode. It\u0027s better to strive that kernel can automatically\noptimise the power save parameters, like with help of pm qos network\nand other traffic parameters.\n\nLater on, when we have better understanding of power save, we can extend\nthis command with more features, if there\u0027s a need for that.\n\nSigned-off-by: Kalle Valo \u003ckalle.valo@nokia.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: John W.
