The Adhoc support wasn't parsing and handling the ath specific and WME IEs, thus the atheros vendor support and WME TXOP parameters aren't being copied from the peer. It copies the WME parameters from whichever adhoc node it decides to associate to, rather than just having them be statically configured per adhoc node. This may or may not be exactly "right", but it's certainly going to be more convienent for people - they just have to ensure their adhoc nodes are setup with correct WME parameters. Since WME parameters aren't per-node but are configured on hardware TX queues, if some nodes support WME and some don't - or perhaps, have different WME parameters - things will get quite quirky. So ensure that you configure your adhoc nodes with the same WME parameters. Secondly - the Atheros Vendor IE is parsed and operated on per-node, so this should work out ok between nodes that do and don't do Atheros extensions. Once you see a becaon from that node and you setup the association state, it _should_ parse things correctly. TODO: * I do need to ensure that both adhoc setup paths are correctly updating the IE stuff. Ie, if the adhoc node is created by a data frame instead of a beacon frame, it'll come up with no WME/ath IE config. The next beacon frame that it receives from that node will update the state. I just need to sit down and better understand how that's suppose to work in IBSS mode. Tested: * AR5416 <-> AR9280 - fast frames and the WME configuration both popped up. (This is with a local HAL patch that enables the fast frames capability on the AR5416 chipsets.) PR: kern/165969 |

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``world'' target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not changed from the currently running version. See: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
