I've tested it with BCM4318 (ASUS WL500-gP). When I run hostapd - it seems
to hang the system (100% CPU load)
but also this patch seems to fix this bug:

Another unrelated bug (sorry, testing often finds unrelated bugs) is
that scanning with specific ESSID was returning non-matching APs. I
mean iwlist wlan0 scan my_essid, which would still report many
different ESSIDs. It's inconvenient when the driver can sense 22 APs at
once :)
Heh. I'm
I had a case of total disassociation last night, and it is unusual. NM
was unable to reconnect (so we go to bash).
A scan revealed no APs but after a module reload they are back...
What further testing or other diagnostics can I run should this happen
again to rest?
Thanks

This actually breaks beacons, if I don't use this it sends them,
otherwise it only gets PHY TX

This fixes beacon updating in the bottomhalf.
In case the device is busy, we will defer to later in the IRQ handler.

Can I just Diff this into the current kernel?

You should be more specific about what you mean by current kernel.
Do you mean Linus's tree? My patch is based on the current contents of
wireless-testing. It fails to apply against Linus's tree, but only the
final hunk
This patch is _not_ supposed to go upstream, yet.
I just like to have it in -mm to get more testing.
This patch is supposed to distribute the calibration bursts over time,
so that calibration only happens when it's actually needed.
So instead of disabling the MAC every 120 secs and recalibrating
The calculation of TX power has recently been improved in b43.
This patch implements those improvements in b43legacy.
With this patch, the estimated power out calculation becomes
quite stable. After the initial settling, the estimate varies by
0.25 dBm, or less.
This patch is meant to apply to

It's a backport of the current wireless drivers for the older kernels.
The patch Michael asked us to test applies to it cleanly.
Thank you. I didn't know compat-wireless.

It's just as good as bcm4306.
