From: Ben Greear <greearb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> This enables ethtool stats for mac80211 devices. It also adds hooks to call down into mac80211 drivers for additional stats. Patches to enable this hook in ath9k will be posted in a different series. There was a review question about how to make the ethtool strings line up with the data in a less error prone manner. This patch series does NOT address that. I think it may be more work than it's worth to try to do this, but we can always retro-fit such behaviour later if desired. Many drivers have this issue, so perhaps some support code in the ethtool core is the way to go. V2: Fix getting survey stats: Need to specify the current channel index, not just use index zero. The fix for this involved adding a new helper method which adds a patch to the series. Ben Greear (6): cfg80211: Add framework to support ethtool stats. mac80211: Support getting sta_info stats via ethtool. mac80211: Framework to get wifi-driver stats via ethtool. wireless: Add util method to get channel index from frequency. mac80211: Add more ethtools stats: survey, rates, etc mac80211: Add sta_state to ethtool stats. include/net/cfg80211.h | 24 ++++++ include/net/mac80211.h | 17 ++++ net/mac80211/cfg.c | 176 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ net/mac80211/driver-ops.h | 37 +++++++++ net/mac80211/driver-trace.h | 15 ++++ net/wireless/ethtool.c | 29 +++++++ net/wireless/util.c | 24 ++++++ 7 files changed, 322 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) -- 1.7.3.4 -- 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
