2012-03-13mac80211: rename bss_conf timestamp to last_tsfJohannes Berg6-7/+8
This value is not really very useful by itself, yet some drivers (including iwlwifi until I can figure out what it should do) use it. At least rename it to "last_tsf" to indicate the meaning and add a note that it may be really old. I suspect the value may become useful combined with the rx_status->mactime, but we don't (yet) store that value and pass it to the driver.

2012-03-13b43: Load firmware from a work queue and not from the probe routineLarry Finger2-27/+35
Recent changes in udev are causing problems for drivers that load firmware from the probe routine. As b43 has such a structure, it must be changed. As this driver loads more than 1 firmware file, changing to the asynchronous routine request_firmware_nowait() would be complicated. In this implementation, the probe routine starts a queue that calls the firmware loading routines. Signed-off-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

2012-03-12mac80211: set basic rates earlierJohannes Berg1-48/+49
The authentication and association handshake already happens in the context of the new BSS, and the basic rates are needed at least for the ACK response frame to the authentication or association response frames. Therefore the basic rates should already be configured into the driver when those frames are sent.

2012-03-12rt2x00: Fix beacon skew in rt2800pciHelmut Schaa2-0/+33
rt2800pci is suffering from beacon skew in AP mode. Some powersaving clients (like VOIP phones) are getting into trouble after some time when the beacon skew is getting too big. The ralink legacy drivers contain a function that indicates that the beacon timer is off by 1us per tbtt. And this function works around that by reducing the beacon interval for every 64th beacon transmission by 64us (the smallest possible value). Do the same in rt2800pci. This allows proper powersaving when rt2800pci is used in AP mode. Signed-off-by: Helmut Schaa <helmut.schaa@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2012-03-12mac80211: set channel back after disassociatingJohannes Berg1-7/+6
As we've discussed, we want to avoid channel changes while associated. While the part when we actually associate needs a bit more work, the bit that happens on disassociating can be changed quite easily. Move the channel type change later in the disassociate process to set the channel only after the driver was told that it's now disassociated. As the driver could expect powersave to be enabled only when associated, this thus results in splitting the config call, but overall what happens makes more sense this way.
