| To Do List for Broadcom Mac80211 driver |
| |
| Features to be added |
| ===================== |
| - 40 MHz channels |
| - Power Save |
| - AP |
| - IBSS |
| - HW-based encryption |
| - LED support |
| - RFKILL |
| - Debugfs and debugability |
| |
| Code cleanup |
| ============ |
| - Use proper kernel coding standards |
| - Remove overlap with system header files. (ie much of include/proto/*.h should |
| be removed) |
| - Purge unused variables/data structs/functions BUT keep code related to |
| features that are being added (ie AP mode, 40 Mhz channels, IBSS etc). |
| - Replace proprietary utility functions with public kernel versions. |
| |
| Bugs |
| ==== |
| - Various occasional asserts/hangs |
| - Scanning during data transfer sometimes causes major slowdowns. Sometimes |
| revcovers when scan is done, other times not. |
| - Mac80211 API not completely implemented (ie ops_bss_info_changed, |
| ops_get_stats, etc) |
| |
| Other |
| ===== |
| - wlc_mac80211.[ch], wl_mac80211.[ch] and linux_osl.c all need to be refactored |
| and combined. |
| - Merge files that are partially duplicated between the softmac and fullmac |
| drivers |
| - Replace driver's proprietary ssb interface with generic kernel ssb module |
| (only used when compiling for SDIO). |
| - PCI and SDIO support are currently #ifdef'ed exclusive of each other, which |
| leads to a separate wl.ko for each. This should be changed to runtime |
| handling of different interfaces so that a single binary driver can be built. |
| - Add support for new chips (obviously an ongoing item). |
