a920304891 Load firmware images directly from the filesystem (looks into /etc/firmware
directory by default) without requiring the user to load them by hand using
e.g iwicontrol.  Get rid of the old ioctl crud.
Updated iwi-firmware port coming soon.

c7d62bfff4 o Use firmware extended scan command; this one doesn't crash when scanning
the 5GHz band.
o Enable 802.11a channels scanning for 2915ABG adapters.
o Fix a typo (negociated->negotiated).

With hints from NetBSD.

92d4852201 Use phk's kernel unit number allocator to associate unique ids to neighbors
in an IBSS.  Store ids directly into ieee80211_node's instead of managing
our own private association table.  Idea and code by Sam Leffler.

e802c15322 o Add initial bits for IBSS support.
o Allow association with APs that do not broadcast SSID (with hints from
  Nick Hudson and Hajimu Umemoto).
o IFQ_DRV_PREPEND mbuf when h/w ring is full so it can be sent later.
o Increment if_oerrors when appropriate.
o Did some cleanup while I'm here.

ea31044737 Enhanced WME (802.11e) support. 2005-08-21 09:52:18 +00:00

d3d084c7cc Add some necessary bits for upcoming 802.11e support:
o management of multiple tx rings (up to 4)
o setting of WME IE in association requests

Some features are still missing though, like the possibility to override
the default cwmin/cwmax/asfn values of each tx queues.

628178d704 o Clear device-specific PCI register 0x41 (Retry Timeout) during attach
and on resume (reported to fix issues with ACPI)
o Add monitor mode support
o Add WPA (802.11i) support (not tested extensively though!)
o Add a device specific sysctl to control the tx antenna (default to
  antenna diversity)
o Fix sensitivity setting
o Fix setting of the capinfo field when associating
o Temporarly disable 802.11a channels scanning that was causing firmware
  panics with 2915ABG adapters until I find a better fix.  This breaks
  802.11a support.
o Temporarly switch back to software WEP until I implement hardware
  encryption for AES and TKIP too.
