wireless: allow Atheros card to not depend on ath.ko There are 2 different things: - sub-menu for "Atheros Wireless cards" family - module ath.ko with common Atheros code Until now, they both used to depend on the same Kconfig variable ATH_COMMON. Thus, being "Atheros card" and "depending on ath.ko" was the same. To allow module to belong to the "Atheros Wireless cards" family but not use ath.ko, 2 conditions above need to be separated. So, this patch introduce new Kconfig variable ATH_CARDS for belonging to the "Atheros Wireless Cards" family; while ATH_COMMON becomes hidden variable to express dependency on common Atheros code in ath.ko. Modules that depend on this common code now express it by setting ATH_COMMON. Right now, ath6kl do not depend on common code and thus do not set ATH_COMMON.

net/wireless: fix spaces and grammar copy/paste in vendor Kconfig help text Lots of the wireless driver vendor Kconfig symol help text says "questions about cards." (2 spaces between "about" and "cards") Besides dropping one of those spaces, it also needs some other word inserted there. Instead of putting each vendor's name there, I chose to say "these" cards in all of the Kconfig help text.

Add ath6kl cleaned up driver Last May we started working on cleaning up ath6kl driver which is currently in staging. The work has happened in a separate ath6kl-cleanup tree: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/kvalo/ath6kl-cleanup.git;a=summary After over 1100 (!) patches we have now reached a state where I would like to start discussing about pushing the driver to the wireless trees and replacing the staging driver. The driver is now a lot smaller and looks like a proper Linux driver. The size of the driver (measured with simple wc -l) dropped from 49 kLOC to 18 kLOC and the number of the .c and .h files dropped from 107 to 22. Most importantly the number of subdirectories reduced from 26 to zero :) There are two remaining checkpatch warnings in the driver which we decided to omit for now: drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath6kl/debug.c:31: WARNING: printk() should include KERN_ facility level drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath6kl/sdio.c:527: WARNING: msleep < 20ms can sleep for up to 20ms; see Documentation/timers/timers-howto.txt The driver has endian annotations for all the hardware specific structures and there are no sparse errors. Unfortunately I don't have any big endian hardware to test that right now. We have been testing the driver both on x86 and arm platforms. The code is also compiled with sparc and parisc cross compilers. Notable missing features compared to the current staging driver are: o HCI over SDIO support o nl80211 testmode o firmware logging o suspend support Testmode, firmware logging and suspend support will be added soon. HCI over SDIO support will be more difficult as the HCI driver needs to share code with the wifi driver. This is something we need to research more. Also I want to point out the changes I did for signed endian support. As I wasn't able to find any support for signed endian annotations I decided to follow what NTFS has done and added my own. Grep for sle16 and sle32, especially from wmi.h. Various people have been working on the cleanup, the hall of fame based on number of patches is: 543 Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan 403 Raja Mani 252 Kalle Valo 16 Vivek Natarajan 12 Suraj Sumangala 3 Joe Perches 2 Jouni Malinen Signed-off-by: Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan <vthiagar@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: Raja Mani <rmani@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: Vivek Natarajan <nataraja@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: Suraj Sumangala <surajs@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <jouni@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@qca.qualcomm.com>

ar5523: Add new driver This driver is for the AR5523 chipset from Atheros. It was created in 2007 by Christoph Hellwig but it was never finished. I found it a couple of months ago and after some polishing it's working pretty fine. The driver was written with the FreeBSD driver (uath) as reference, which was written with the reverse-engineered windows driver as reference, hence the feature set is very limited. Station mode only, no HW crypto offload. Signed-off-by: Pontus Fuchs <pontus.fuchs@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

wireless: add new wil6210 802.11ad 60GHz driver This adds support for the 60 GHz 802.11ad Wilocity card through a new driver, wil6210. Wilocity implemented the firmware, QCA maintains the device driver. Currently supported: - STA: with security - AP: limited to 1 connected STA, security disabled - Monitor: due to a hardware/firmware limitation either control or non-control frames are monitored Using a STA and AP with this drive, one can assemble a fully functional BSS. Throughput of 1.2Gbps is achieved with iperf. The wil6210 cards have on-board flash memory for the firmware, the cards comes pre-flashed and no firmware download is required.
