* mac80211-next: rtnetlink wifi simulation deviceCody Schuffelen2018-12-051-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This device takes over an existing network device and produces a new one that appears like a wireless connection, returning enough canned responses to nl80211 to satisfy a standard connection manager. If necessary, it can also be set up one step removed from an existing network device, such as through a vlan/80211Q or macvlan connection to not disrupt the existing network interface. To use it to wrap a bare ethernet connection: ip link add link eth0 name wlan0 type virt_wifi You may have to rename or otherwise hide the eth0 from your connection manager, as the original network link will become unusuable and only the wireless wrapper will be functional. This can also be combined with vlan or macvlan links on top of eth0 to share the network between distinct links, but that requires support outside the machine for accepting vlan-tagged packets or packets from multiple MAC addresses. This is being used for Google's Remote Android Virtual Device project, which runs Android devices in virtual machines. The standard network interfaces provided inside the virtual machines are all ethernet. However, Android is not interested in ethernet devices and would rather connect to a wireless interface. This patch allows the virtual machine guest to treat one of its network connections as wireless rather than ethernet, satisfying Android's network connection requirements. We believe this is a generally useful driver for simulating wireless network connections in other environments where a wireless connection is desired by some userspace process but is not available. This is distinct from other testing efforts such as mac80211_hwsim by being a cfg80211 device instead of mac80211 device, allowing straight pass-through on the data plane instead of forcing packaging of ethernet data into mac80211 frames.

* qtnfmac: introduce new FullMAC driver for Quantenna chipsetsIgor Mitsyanko2017-05-241-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds support for new FullMAC WiFi driver for Quantenna QSR10G chipsets. QSR10G (aka Pearl) is Quantenna's 8x8, 160M, 11ac offering. QSR10G supports 2 simultaneous WMACs - one 5G and one 2G. 5G WMAC supports 160M, 8x8 configuration. FW supports up to 8 concurrent virtual interfaces on each WMAC. Patch introduces 2 new drivers: - qtnfmac.ko for interfacing with kernel wireless core - qtnfmac_pearl_pcie.ko for interfacing with hardware over PCIe interface Signed-off-by: Dmitrii Lebed <dlebed@quantenna.com> Signed-off-by: Sergei Maksimenko <smaksimenko@quantenna.com> Signed-off-by: Sergey Matyukevich <smatyukevich@quantenna.com> Signed-off-by: Bindu Therthala <btherthala@quantenna.com> Signed-off-by: Huizhao Wang <hwang@quantenna.com> Signed-off-by: Kamlesh Rath <krath@quantenna.com> Signed-off-by: Avinash Patil <avinashp@quantenna.com> Signed-off-by: Igor Mitsyanko <igor.mitsyanko.os@quantenna.com> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@codeaurora.org>
* wireless: deprecate WDS and disable by defaultJohannes Berg2016-10-271-0/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The old WDS 4-addr frame support is very limited, e.g. * no encryption is possible on such links * it cannot support rate/HT/VHT negotiation * management APIs are very restricted These make the WDS legacy mode useless in practice. All of these are resolved by the 4-addr AP/client support, so there's also no reason to improve WDS in the future. Therefore, add a Kconfig option to disable legacy WDS. This gives people an "emergency valve" while they migrate to the better-supported 4-addr AP/client option; we plan to remove it (and the associated cfg80211/mac80211 code, which is the ultimate goal) in the future.

* New driver: rtl8xxxu (mac80211)Jes Sorensen2015-10-211-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is an alternate driver for a number of Realtek WiFi USB devices, including RTL8723AU, RTL8188CU, RTL8188RU, RTL8191CU, and RTL8192CU. It was written from scratch utilizing the Linux mac80211 stack. After spending months cleaning up the vendor provided rtl8723au driver, which comes with it's own 802.11 stack included, I decided to rewrite this driver from the bottom up. Many thanks to Johannes Berg for 802.11 insights and help and Larry Finger for help with the vendor driver. The full git log for the development of this driver can be found here: git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jes/linux.git branch rtl8723au-mac80211 This driver is still under development, but has proven to be very stable for me. It currently supports station mode only. It has support for OFDM and CCK rates. It does lack certain features found in the staging driver, such as power management, AMPDU, and 40MHz channel support. In addition it does not support AD-HOC, AP, and monitor mode support at this point. The driver is known to work with the following devices: Lenovo Yoga (rtl8723au) TP-Link TL-WN823N (rtl8192cu) Etekcity 6R (rtl8188cu) Daffodil LAN03 (rtl8188cu) Alfa AWUS036NHR (rtl8188ru) Signed-off-by: Jes Sorensen <Jes.Sorensen@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@codeaurora.org>
* rtlwifi: rtl818x: Move drivers into new realtek directoryLarry Finger2015-10-141-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | Now that a new mac80211-based driver for Realtek devices has been submitted, it is time to reorganize the directories. Rather than having directories rtlwifi and rtl818x be in drivers/net/wireless/, they will now be in drivers/net/wireless/realtek/. This change simplifies the directory structure, but does not result in any configuration changes that are visable to the user.

* add mt7601u driverJakub Kicinski2015-05-281-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add support for the simplest of MediaTek Wi-Fi devices - MT7601U. It is a single stream bgn chip with no bells or whistles. This driver is partially based on Felix's mt76 but IMHO it doesn't make sense to merge the two right now because MT7601U is a design somewhere between old Ralink devices and new Mediatek chips. There wouldn't be all that much code sharing with the devices mt76 supports. Situation may obviously change when someone decides to extend m76 with support for the more recent USB dongles. The driver supports only station mode. I'm hoping to add AP support when time allows.
