2009-12-28mac80211: introduce flush operationJohannes Berg1-0/+11
We've long lacked a good confirmation that frames have really gone out, e.g. before going off-channel for a scan. Add a flush() operation that drivers can implement to provide that confirmation, and use it in a few places: * before scanning sends the nullfunc frames * after scanning sends the nullfunc frames, if any * when going idle, to send any pending frames Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

2009-12-28rtl8187: remove priv->modeJohn W. Linville3-7/+4
It is checked in add_interface, but there it is easily replaced with a check of priv->vif. If that information should become necessary, it is available in vif->type anyway. It is also checked in led_turn_on and led_turn_off, where I made the substitutions as described above. Of course, these checks seem to have been incorrect since the driver was using NL80211_IFTYPE_MONITOR to indicate no interface rather than NL80211_IFTYPE_UNSPECIFIED. Anyway, I think these checks may be extraneous...? Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
