are at the end of the node queue. Change the reference-counting
discipline: ni->ni_refcnt indicates how many times net80211 has
granted ni to the driver. Every node in the table with ni_refcnt=0
is eligible to be garbage-collected. The mere presence of a node
in the table does not any longer indicate its auth/assoc state;
nodes have a ni_state variable, now. A sysctl,
net.link.ieee80211.maxnodecache, controls the maximum LRU cache
size.
While I am here, patch ieee80211_find_node_for_beacon to do a "best
match" by bssid/ssid/channel, not a "perfect match." This keeps
net80211 from caching duplicate nodes in the table.
handling was changed in net80211 framework.
This fix wiconfig -D awi0 to work again for DS phys.
XXX FH phys takes 20 seconds to complete scan, so wiconfig timed out.
<kml@patheticgeek.net>.
This patch does NOT add monitor mode support for the Lucent radios.
awi(4) was only modified for compatibility with the new mediaopt.
It does NOT support monitor mode.
Tested by Kevin, Daniel Carosone, and I.
correctly. To avoid massive extra code in each driver, now if_iee80211subr.c
also handles non-standard old lucent adhoc-demo mode.
This also fixes PR 14227.
Change the name of structure ieee80211_bss to ieee80211_node, which is
used for management of stations in hostap mode, and peers in ibss mode.
Split off ic_opmode, ic_phytype from ic_flags.
Preparation to merge 'wi' driver into 80211subr.c.
- aging ang clear inactivity stations
- DTIM field in beacon/probe response.
- ignore IFF_PROMISC for hostap mode, since 802.11 has 3 address fields,
so that promisc mode is not required for AP function.
XXX: FH chanset should be calculated by FH hop pattern, but BayStack 650 AP
always specify chanset to fixed value 1. The previous code try to this
hack into awi driver, but it is insufficient because the chanset value
in awi driver may change while scan and it may be different from the
value in receiving beacon/probe-response. So we save encoded FH chanset
into channel in 802.11 common bss information for now.
if_ieee80211subr.c, which can be shared between any IEEE 802.11
drivers.
However, most of current working IEEE 802.11b wireless LAN cards
have rich firmware and we cannot have a control to management frames
for such cards.
IBSS creation is now supported for the awi driver.
Change the first argument of awi_init/awi_stop from struct awi_softc to
struct ifnet to match the definition if_init/if_stop, though we don't
use ether_ioctl() yet.
u_int8_t array to struct ieee80211_nwid to prepend length field.
The length field is necessary because IEEE 802.11 spec doesn't prohibit
even '\0' for SSID.
Though the name and the value of SIOC... macro is unchanged, this change
breaks binary compatibility. The only affected userland program on the
tree is ifconfig(8).
As Jason suggested on tech-net, it is better than live with problems
since there are no releases for this ioctls yet.
arc4 implementation by Kalle Kaukonen has been added.
define "wlan" in files.
XXX: only awi depends on wlan for now.
Allow authentication for adhoc (IBSS) mode.
Disable adhoc mode without bssid (mediaopt adhoc,flag0) for FH radio.
FH cannot work without synchronization by beacons.
Align IP header for ethernet encapsulation (IFF_FLAG0) mode.
Print available access points for IFF_DEBUG.
add opt_awi.h to define AWI_DEBUG, AWI_WEP_ARC4.
show the firmware version at attach.
create a framework to support WEP (encryption code is not included for now).
a new wiconfig compatible ioctl interface replaced the awictl interface.

Fix a panic resulting from an obvious null pointer deref.
Apparently some other panics still exist in this driver, but with
this fix, it was at least possible to run the Nokia card at SANE 2000.
have _detach() functions:
Ensure that softc keeps state about whether the attach succeeded,
and make the detach function return immediately if the attach did
not complete.
