mac802154: fix ieee802154_rx handling

2015-07-23T15:10:50+00:00

Instead of passing ieee802154_hw pointer to ieee802154_rx,
we can directly pass the ieee802154_local pointer.

mac802154: do not export ieee802154_rx()

2015-07-23T15:10:50+00:00

Right now there are no other users for ieee802154_rx()
in kernel. So lets remove EXPORT_SYMBOL() for this.

Also it moves the function prototype from global header
file to local header file.

mac802154: cfg: add suspend and resume callbacks

2015-07-23T15:10:49+00:00

This patch introduces suspend and resume callbacks to mac802154. When
doing suspend we calling the stop driver callback which should stop the
receiving of frames. A transceiver should go into low-power mode then.
Calling resume will call the start driver callback, which starts receiving
again and allow to transmit frames.

This was tested only with the fakelb driver and a qemu vm by doing the
following commands:

echo "devices" > /sys/power/pm_test
echo "freeze" > /sys/power/state

while doing some high traffic between two fakelb phys.

mac802154: rx packet handle cleanup

2015-06-14T23:20:17+00:00

This patch replaces !netif_running(sdata->dev) with
!ieee802154_sdata_running(sdata) and also devide the
code two separate if branches.

mac802154: remove unneeded vif struct

2015-06-07T07:13:32+00:00

This patch removes the virtual interface structure from sub if data
struct, because it isn't used anywhere. This structure could be useful
for give per interface information at softmac driver layer. Nevertheless
there exist no use case currently and it contains the interface type
information currently. This information is also stored inside wpan dev
which is now used to check on the wpan dev interface type.

mac802154: remove mib lock

2015-05-23T15:57:08+00:00

This patch removes the mib lock. The new locking mechanism is to protect
the mib values with the rtnl lock. Note that this isn't always necessary
if we have an interface up the most mib values are readonly (e.g.
address settings). With this behaviour we can remove locking in
hotpath like frame parsing completely. It depends on context if we need
to hold the rtnl lock or not, this makes the callbacks of
ieee802154_mlme_ops unnecessary because these callbacks hols always the
locks.

mac802154: use new nl802154 iftype types

2014-11-17T08:49:15+00:00

This patch replace the depracted IEEE802154_DEV to the new introduced
NL802154_IFTYPE_NODE types. There is a backwards compatibility to have
the identical types for both enum definitions. Also remove some inlcude
issue with "linux/nl802154.h", because the export nl_policy inside this
header it was always necessary to have an include of "net/rtnetlink.h"
before. The reason for this is more complicated. Nevertheless we removed
this now, because "linux/nl802154.h" is the depracted netlink interface.

mac802154: move mac pib attributes into wpan_dev

2014-11-09T18:50:27+00:00

This patch moves all mac pib attributes into the wpan_dev struct.
Furthermore we can easier access these attributes over the netdev
802154_ptr pointer. Currently this is only possible over a complicated
callback structure in mac802154 because subif data structure is
accessable inside mac802154 only.

mac802154: add ieee802154_vif struct

2014-11-05T20:53:04+00:00

This patch adds an ieee802154_vif similar like the ieee80211_vif which
holds the interface type and maybe further more attributes like the
ieee80211_vif structure.
