Joerg Sommer d632f9fa38 [PATCH] bcm43xx: Fix bug in frequency to channel conversion
The frequency to channel routine in bcm43xx requires that the frequency
be in MHz, but that condition is not always met. This patch does the
necessary conversion.

Tim Schmielau cd354f1ae7 [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.

To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).

Daniel Drake c9308b06c0 [PATCH] ieee80211: Move IV/ICV stripping into ieee80211_rx
This patch adds a host_strip_iv_icv flag to ieee80211 which indicates that
ieee80211_rx should strip the IV/ICV/other security features from the payload.
This saves on some memmove() calls in the driver and seems like something that
belongs in the stack as it can be used by bcm43xx, ipw2200, and zd1211rw

I will submit the ipw2200 patch separately as it needs testing.

This patch also adds some sensible variable reuse (idx vs keyidx) in
ieee80211_rx

Larry Finger f04e2be7d9 [PATCH] bcm43xx: output proper link quality with scans
The bcm43xx-softmac driver fails to set two quantities needed for
iwlist to compute wireless quality when scanning. As a result, userland
programs using the quality to determine the best connection fail.

Larry Finger c576af4791 [PATCH] bcm43xx: Set floor of wireless signal and noise at -110 dBm
This patch sets the floor of wireless level (signal) and noise at
-110 dBm, which makes them be comatible with RCPI, as discussed by
Simon Barber. With this change, bcm43xx-softmac and bcm43xx-d80211
behave the same.

Larry Finger 4221f980a4 [PATCH] bcm43xx: improved statistics
This patch improves the statistics returned from
bcm43xx_get_wireless_stats. The signal level comes from smoothing the
"rssi" value returned by the firmware after it is converted into a
dBm value by the driver. The quality value is a hack derived from the
smoothed level and an assumed RX_POWER_MAX of -10 dBM. The noise value
is still the one calculated from the clean-room formula. On my system,
this is roughly -65 dBm, which seems too high.

The revised version uses the ieee80211 spinlock to protect traversing
of the network list.

Larry Finger fc8fd3400b [PATCH] Convert bcm43xx-softmac to use the ieee80211_is_valid_channel routine
The current version of bcm43xx-softmac uses local routines to check
if a channel is valid. As noted in the comments, these routines do
not take any regulatory information into account. This patch converts
the code to use the equivalent routine in ieee80211, which is being
converted to know about regulatory information.
