Here are a few fixes for the ath9k virtual wiphy. I thought I was going to have time to test them all today but that didn't happen so instead of letting them rot in my queue for a few days I'm posting them for review. I was not able to find an easy way to deal with the ah->opmode, that should be updated based on the currently used ieee80211_vif but mac80211 doesn't exactly tell us which vif we're using at any given time -- instead each driver is supposed to support different modes of operation on different vifs on one wiphy. With ath9k virtual wiphy we've taken a different approach: two vifs can have different operating modes but on at least they get to use their own separate channel. While we can reap benefits of using a separate channel with the current implementation there are a few cases where mac80211 makes it difficult to guess your current hw configuration, mainly because it wasn't designed for two vifs on separate wiphys on the same hardware. We'd still need to figure out a way to deal with the ah->opmode but that varies depending on the used vif, and the rx filter also changes depending on the vif we're on but we have no way of triggering an appropriate filter update unless mac80211 does it by chance for us.

Rodriguez (9): ath9k: fix listening to idle requests ath9k: update hw configuration for virtual wiphys ath9k: simpify RX by calling ath_get_virt_hw() once ath9k: use the passed ieee80211_hw on ath_rx_prepare() ath9k: pass the ieee80211_hw on radio enable/disable ath9k: use correct hw for tx aggregation TX completion ath9k: use the right hw on ath_tx_setup_buffer() for HT ath9k: handle low buffer space for virtual wiphys ath9k: do not pass the entire descriptor to ath_rx_prepare() drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/ath9k.h | 10 +++- drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/main.c | 51 +++++++++++----- drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/recv.c | 96 ++++++++++++++++------------- drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/virtual.c | 79 +++++++++++++++++++++++-- drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/xmit.c | 21 ++++-- 5 files changed, 184 insertions(+), 73 deletions(-) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
