This core is used on BCM4708 to configure the PCIe and USB3 PHYs and it
contains the addresses to the Device Management unit. This will be used
by the PCIe driver first.

Each core could have more than one alternative address. There are cores
with 8 alternative addresses for different functions. The PHY control
in the Chip common B core is done through the 2. alternative address
and not the first one.

Using the LQ table which is initially set according to
the rssi could lead to EAPOLs being sent in high legacy
rates like 54mbps.
It's better to avoid sending EAPOLs in high rates as it reduces
the chances of a successful 4-Way handshake.
Avoid this and treat them like other mg

The latter is meant for software implementation of power
save and is not per-virtual interface. Since our driver
supports multiple virtual interfaces, we need to use

When mac80211 requests multiple BSS config changes, as for example

In commit cad3f08c (iwlwifi: mvm: enable MAC_FILTER_IN_BEACON when

This code was broken on big endian systems. Sparse didn't
catch the bug since the firmware command was not tagged as
little endian.
Fix the bug for big endian systems and tag the field in the

The idea here is to translate a value of 0 received from
the firmware to the lowest rssi figure. As rx_status->chain_signal
is a signed byte the lowest possible value is -128 and not -256.
-256 was causing 0 to get stored in the signed byte.

Scheduled scan was disabled because of a bug in the firmware.
The firmware reported support for this feature, but enabling
it led to assertions.
The bugs have been fixes in latest firmware versions, so that
we can re-enable the feature on latest firmwares only.

Hi John,
I think I have caught up completely now - and because I had quite a bit to
cover this pull request is rather big for an -rc5. Sorry about that.
I re-enable scheduled scan on firmware that contain the fix for the bug that
Linus reported.

Dear 802.11 experts;
Short introduction before the actual question:
Some of you have probably noticed my effort of bringing the 802.11p
support for the mainline Linux kernel. (Side note: I know that "802.11p"
is already part of the IEEE 802.11-2012 but calling it ".11p" makes it
easier to determine

Hi John,
One more for mac80211, hopefully that should be it. If anyone thinks I
missed anything please holler. I'll have one more for mac80211-next
later this week.
Note I'm going to be on vacation soon (EOW) until early October, so if
anything super urgent shows up I'd appreciate if you could me

Many devices run firmware and/or complex hardware, and most of that
