David S. Miller ccc580571c wext: Emit event stream entries correctly when compat.
Three major portions to this change:

1) Add IW_EV_COMPAT_LCP_LEN, IW_EV_COMPAT_POINT_OFF,
   and IW_EV_COMPAT_POINT_LEN helper defines.

2) Delete iw_stream_check_add_*(), they are unused.

3) Add iw_request_info argument to iwe_stream_add_*(), and use it to
   size the event and pointer lengths correctly depending upon whether
   IW_REQUEST_FLAG_COMPAT is set or not.

4) The mechanical transformations to the drivers and wireless stack
   bits to get the iw_request_info passed down into the routines
   modified in #3.  Also, explicit references to IW_EV_LCP_LEN are
   replaced with iwe_stream_lcp_len(info).

With a lot of help and bug fixes from Masakazu Mokuno.

David S. Miller 87de87d5e4 wext: Dispatch and handle compat ioctls entirely in net/wireless/wext.c
Next we can kill the hacks in fs/compat_ioctl.c and also
dispatch compat ioctls down into the driver and 80211 protocol
helper layers in order to handle iw_point objects embedded in
stream replies which need to be translated.

Masakazu Mokuno ba569b4c68 WEXT: Add support for passing PMK and capability flags to WEXT
This defines the flags for setting the PMK to the driver and the
capability flag for this so that the user space program can figure out
whether the target driver wants to do 4-way hand shake by itself and
pass the PMK which is needed before 4-way handshake to the driver.

Dan Williams 374fdfbc67 introduce WEXT scan capabilities
Introduce scan capabilities to WEXT so that userspace can do intelligent
things with scan behavior such as handling hidden SSIDs more gracefully.
If the driver reports a specific scan capability, the driver must
respect the options specified in the iw_scan_req structure when handling
the SIOCSIWSCAN call, unless it's mode or state does not allow it to do
so, in which case it must return an error.

This version switches to Dave Kilroy's suggestion of claiming unused
padding space for the scan_capa field.

Jouni Malinen 85d32e7b0e [PATCH] Update my email address from jkmaline@cc.hut.fi to j@w1.fi
After 13 years of use, it looks like my email address is finally going
to disappear. While this is likely to drop the amount of incoming spam
greatly ;-), it may also affect more appropriate messages, so let's
update my email address in various places. In addition, Host AP mailing
list is subscribers-only and linux-wireless can also be used for
discussing issues related to this driver which is now shown in
MAINTAINERS.

Johannes Berg discovered that kernel space was leaking to

John W. Linville baef186519 [PATCH] WE-21 support (core API)
This is version 21 of the Wireless Extensions. Changelog :
	o finishes migrating the ESSID API (remove the +1)
	o netdev->get_wireless_stats is no more
	o long/short retry

This is a redacted version of a patch originally submitted by Jean
Tourrilhes.  I removed most of the additions, in order to minimize
future support requirements for nl80211 (or other WE successor).

Jean Tourrilhes 711e2c33ac [PATCH] WE-20 for kernel 2.6.16
This is version 20 of the Wireless Extensions. This is the
completion of the RtNetlink work I started early 2004, it enables the
full Wireless Extension API over RtNetlink.

	Few comments on the patch :
	o totally driver transparent, no change in drivers needed.
	o iwevent were already RtNetlink based since they were created
(around 2.5.7). This adds all the regular SET and GET requests over
RtNetlink, using the exact same mechanism and data format as iwevents.
	o This is a Kconfig option, as currently most people have no
need for it. Surprisingly, patch is actually small and well
encapsulated.
	o Tested on SMP, attention as been paid to make it 64 bits clean.
	o Code do probably too many checks and could be further
optimised, but better safe than sorry.
	o RtNetlink based version of the Wireless Tools available on
my web page for people inclined to try out this stuff.

	I would also like to thank Alexey Kuznetsov for his helpful
suggestions to make this patch better.

Jean Tourrilhes 6582c164f2 [PATCH] WE-19 for kernel 2.6.13
Hi Jeff,

	This is version 19 of the Wireless Extensions. It was supposed
to be the fallback of the WPA API changes, but people seem quite happy
about it (especially Jouni), so the patch is rather small.
	The patch has been fully tested with 2.6.13 and various
wireless drivers, and is in its final version. Would you mind pushing
that into Linus's kernel so that the driver and the apps can take
advantage ot it ?

	It includes :
	o iwstat improvement (explicit dBm). This is the result of
long discussions with Dan Williams, the authors of
NetworkManager. Thanks to him for all the fruitful feedback.
	o remove pointer from event stream. I was not totally sure if
this pointer was 32-64 bits clean, so I'd rather remove it and be at
peace with it.
	o remove linux header from wireless.h. This has long been
requested by people writting user space apps, now it's done, and it
was not even painful.
	o final deprecation of spy_offset. You did not like it, it's
now gone for good.
	o Start deprecating dev->get_wireless_stats -> debloat netdev
	o Add "check" version of event macros for ieee802.11
stack. Jiri Benc doesn't like the current macros, we aim to please ;-)
	All those changes, except the last one, have been bit-roting on
my web pages for a while...

	Patches for most kernel drivers will follow. Patches for the
Orinoco and the HostAP drivers have been sent to their respective
maintainers.

	Have fun...

	Jean

fff9cfd99c [PATCH] Wireless Extensions 18 (aka WPA)
This is version 18 of the Wireless Extensions. The main change
  is that it adds all the necessary APIs for WPA and WPA2 support. This
  work was entirely done by Jouni Malinen, so let's thank him for both
  his hard work and deep expertise on the subject ;-)
        This APIs obviously doesn't do much by itself and works in
  concert with driver support (Jouni already sent you the HostAP
  changes) and userspace (Jouni is updating wpa_supplicant). This is
  also orthogonal with the ongoing work on in-kernel IEEE support (but
  potentially useful).
        The patch is attached, tested with 2.6.11. Normally, I would
  ask you to push that directly in the kernel (99% of the patch has been
  on my web page for ages and it does not affect non-WPA stuff), but
  Jouni convinced me that it should bake a few weeks in wireless-2.6
  first, so that other driver maintainers can get up to speed with it.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
