2008-09-05b43: Move code from nphy.* to phy_n.*Michael Buesch
Sourcecode files for PHY code are named by phy_XXX.{c,h} where XXX is the PHY type. Move the N-PHY code to match the other files. Signed-off-by: Michael Buesch <mb@bu3sch.de> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2008-08-29b43: Rewrite TX power adjustmentMichael Buesch
This patch rewrites the TX power recalculation algorithms to scale better with changed enviromnent. If there's low TX traffic, the power will be checked against the desired values every 60 seconds. If there is high TX traffic, the check is redone every 2 seconds. This improves the reaction times a lot and confuses the rate control less. It will also reduce the time it initially takes to tune to a new TX power value. With the old algorithm it could take about 30 to 45 seconds to settle to a new power value. This will happen in about two to four seconds now. Signed-off-by: Michael Buesch <mb@bu3sch.de> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2008-08-29b43: Implement dynamic PHY APIMichael Buesch
This patch implements a dynamic "ops" based PHY API. This is needed in order to conveniently support future PHY types to avoid the "switch"-hell. This patch does not change any functionality. It just moves lots of code from one place to another and adjusts it for the changed data structures. Signed-off-by: Michael Buesch <mb@bu3sch.de> Signed-off-by: John W.
