David S. Miller d793fb4682 wireless-drivers-next patches for 4.20
First set of new features for 4.20. mt76 driver is going through major
 refactoring and that's why there are so many mt76 patches. iwlwifi is
 also under heavy development and smaller changes to other drivers.
 
 Also wireless-drivers was merged to fix a conflict between the two trees.
 
 Major changes:
 
 ath10k
 
 * limit available channels via DT ieee80211-freq-limit
 
 wil6210
 
 * add 802.11r Fast Roaming support for AP and station modes
 
 * add support for channel 4
 
 iwlwifi
 
 * new FW API handling
 
 * some improvements in the PCI recovery mechanism
 
 * enable a new scanning feature;
 
 * continued work on HE (mostly radiotap)
 
 * TKIP implementation in new devices
 
 * work continues for new 22560 hardware
 
 mt76
 
 * add support for Alfa AWUS036ACM
 
 * lots of refactoring to make it easier to add new hardware support
 
 * prepare for adding mt76x0e (pci-e variant) support
 
 * add CONFIG_MT76x0E kconfig symbol
 
 brcmfmac
 
 * add support CYW89342 mini-PCIe device
 
 * add 4-way handshake offload detection for FT-802.1X
 
 * enable NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_CQM_RSSI_LIST

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
