TODO list for Marvell 8388 wireless driver

Marcelo Tosatti

• ioctl mess
• 64-bit issues
• proper locking: add a simple global mutex.
• kernel style documentation (Documentation/kernel-doc-nano-HOWTO.txt)
• collapse command queueing (remove queueing should simplify complexity a lot)
• test individual suspend/resume (CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND)

David Woodhouse

• #ifdef __KERNEL__ in wlan_scan.h? !!
• lots of typedef struct { ... } foo
  • most of them removed, a few remaining (marcelo)
• __attribute__ ((packed)) wlan_ioctl_user_scan_cfg why packet?
  • some packed attributes are useless, some are not. We removed some already, need to finish (marcelo)
• and if it's for compatibility with hardware, the u64 should be either __le64 or __be64

Dan Williams

• confused at IsNetworkCompatible() in wlan_scan.c
• Break current SIOC*IWENCODE into SIOC*IWENCODE, SIOC*IWENCODEEXT, SIOC*IWAUTH
• Implement SIOC*IWGENIE
• Make driver do deferred assocation rather than blocking on assoc in WE handlers like SIOCSIWENCODE
