John W. Linville says: ==================== I would guess that this is the last big wireless pull request before the 3.11 merge window... Regarding the mac80211 bits, Johannes says: "I have a number of mesh fixes and improvements from Colleen, Jacob, Ashok and Thomas, powersave fixes in mac80211 from Alex, improved management-TX from Antonio, and a few various things, including locking fixes, from others and myself. Overall though, nothing really stands out." As for the iwlwifi bits, Johannes says: "Emmanuel contributed two AP mode fixes, removed an unused field, fixed a comment and added a warning for something that shouldn't happen in practice, and I removed the declaration of a function that doesn't even exist and cleaned up a small include." "This time I have a number of cleanups, a small fix from Emmanuel and two performance improvements that combined reduce our driver's CPU utilisation as much as 75% in high TX-throughput scenarios." "These two patches fix two issues with using rfkill randomly during traffic, which would then cause our driver to stop working and not be able to recover at all." Regarding the ath6kl bits, Kalle says: "Here are few simple patches for ath6kl. We have a suspend crash fix for USB from Shafi, use of mac_pton(), a compiler warning fix and a fix for module initialisation error path." Kalle also sends the biggest single item of note, the new ath10k driver for Qualcomm Atheros 802.11ac CQA98xx devices. Included is an NFC pull, of which Samuel says: "These are the pending NFC patches for the 3.11 merge window. It contains the pending fixes that were on nfc-fixes (nfc-fixes-3.10-2), along with a few more for the pn544 and pn533 drivers, the LLCP disconnection path and an LLCP memory leak. Highlights for this one are: - An initial secure element API. NFC chipsets can carry an embedded secure element or get access to the SIM one. In both cases they control the secure elements and this API provides a way to discover, enable and disable the available SEs. It also exports that to userspace in order for SE focused middleware to actually do something with them (e.g. payments). - NCI over SPI support. SPI is the most complex NCI specified transport layer and we now have support for it in the kernel. The next step will be to implement drivers for NCI chipsets using this transport like e.g. bcm2079x. - NFC p2p hardware simulation driver. We now have an nfcsim driver that is mostly a loopback device between 2 NFC interfaces. It also implements the rest of the NFC core API like polling and target detection. This driver, with neard running on top of it, allows us to completely test the LLCP, SNEP and Handover implementation without physical hardware. - A Firmware update netlink API. Most (All ?) HCI chipsets have a special firmware update mode where applications can push a new firmware that will be flashed. We now have a netlink API for providing that mode to e.g. nfctool." On top of all that, there are a variety of updates to brcmfmac, iwlegacy, rtlwifi, wil6210, and the TI wl12xx drivers. As usual, the bcma and ssb busses get a little love as well, as do a handful of others here and there. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> |
