First set of patches for v6.3. The most important change here is that the old Wireless Extension user space interface is not supported on Wi-Fi 7 devices at all. We also added a warning if anyone with modern drivers (ie. cfg80211 and mac80211 drivers) tries to use Wireless Extensions, everyone should switch to using nl80211 interface instead. Static WEP support is removed, there wasn't any driver using that anyway so there's no user impact. Otherwise it's smaller features and fixes as usual. Note: As mt76 had tricky conflicts due to the fixes in wireless tree, we decided to merge wireless into wireless-next to solve them easily. There should not be any merge problems anymore. Major changes: cfg80211 * remove never used static WEP support * warn if Wireless Extention interface is used with cfg80211/mac80211 drivers * stop supporting Wireless Extensions with Wi-Fi 7 devices * support minimal Wi-Fi 7 Extremely High Throughput (EHT) rate reporting rfkill * add GPIO DT support bitfield * add FIELD_PREP_CONST() mt76 * per-PHY LED support rtw89 * support new Bluetooth co-existance version rtl8xxxu * support RTL8188EU -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQFFBAABCgAvFiEEiBjanGPFTz4PRfLobhckVSbrbZsFAmPOYeQRHGt2YWxvQGtl cm5lbC5vcmcACgkQbhckVSbrbZvSlAf/Y5ZY5xLEytUma7fBkBObXEfP/7tlBBsu RoRKVx77D1LGfGu0WXG9PCdvyY70e2QtrkdeLHF3gfzLYpNZIyB/eOFhwzCtbJrD ls2yXhdTm9OwDOHAdvXLXx3fmF4bXni7dYdi78VrGCFOnU6XE6X5JpnZYU1SmQ1U 8Ro7H6D9yp8MKfh5Ct19PYSTS5hmHB09vfJ4rbkjHp7kEGvJjYNbvAqGsxatPnh9 Zw35TEIwmhZO4GsXxsG12g6LZa8W8RO8uCwepHxtFM8oGsF68Yb/lkLcdtMiuN6V WdB6qn24faEWjdmt5BzJGueA3Td8KI6t5cHhGbQVKjyFD8lAC+IJQA== =Nq9U -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'wireless-next-2023-01-23' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/wireless/wireless-next Kalle Valo says: ==================== wireless-next patches for v6.3 First set of patches for v6.3.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
