OpenWrt is often used to develop or test new devices
Some users might want to test and help to improve
this new driver
upstream commit notice 26f1fad29ad973b0fb26a9ca3dcb2a73dde781aa
New driver: rtl8xxxu (mac80211)
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)
Compile tested only

compat-wireless/backports now contains a bcm47xx_nvram.h file to
backport some of the functions in it which are used by the bcmfmac
driver. This file just checks for the kernel versions and provide an
empty implementations on older kernel versions. This is OK on most
systems, but on bcm47xx / bcm53xx systems we want to call the real
functions here. This commit removes the file from backports in our
build process like we do it with the bcma and ssb header files. Instead
we add a recent version into our kernel so all code uses only one
header file. On bcm47xx / bcm53xx the real implementations of this code
will be used.

In order to set the multicast rate for mesh point interfaces the "mesh join"
was made explicit and moved to mac80211_setup_vif(), similar to how it is
done for IBSS interfaces.
Previously, the mesh join was made implicit in case authentication (i.e.
$key) was not used when creating the interface in mac80211_prepare_vif(),
while using authentication would create the interface first, then join
later in mac80211_setup_vif() by starting authsae.

llid_in_use needs to be limited to stations of the same VIF, otherwise it
will cause a NULL deref as the sta_info of non-mesh-VIFs don't have
sta->mesh set.
Steps to reproduce:
modprobe mac80211_hwsim channels=2
iw phy phy0 interface add ibss0 type ibss
iw phy phy0 interface add mesh0 type mp
iw phy phy1 interface add ibss1 type ibss
iw phy phy1 interface add mesh1 type mp
ip link set ibss0 up
ip link set mesh0 up
ip link set ibss1 up
ip link set mesh1 up
iw dev ibss0 ibss join foo 2412
iw dev ibss1 ibss join foo 2412
# Ensure that ibss0 and ibss1 are actually associated; I often need to
# leave and join the cell on ibss1 a second time.
iw dev mesh0 mesh join bar
iw dev mesh1 mesh join bar # crash

The ipw2x00 drivers assume that the system they are running is little

A long time ago, ath9k had issues during reset where the DMA engine
would stay active and could potentially corrupt memory.
To debug those issues, the driver would print warnings whenever they
occur.
Nowadays, these issues are gone and the primary cause of these messages
is if the MAC is stuck during reset or busy processing a long
transmission. This is fairly harmless, yet these messages continue to
worry users.
To reduce the number of bogus bug reports, turn these messages into
debug messages and count their occurence in the "reset" debugfs file.

Before starting hostapd we create interface for it. The problem is we
try to create STA interface just to let hostapd change it to AP later.
It may fail if device doesn't support STA interfaces or if we already

$ iw phy phy0 info | tail

total <= 3, #channels <= 1
