Current firmware should work for station mode as well, and the older
firmware will usually behave worse and become unsupported over time.
Also, the MAC address handling on ar71xx is only implemented on one
firmware version.

A long time ago, ath9k had issues during reset where the DMA engine
would stay active and could potentially corrupt memory.
To debug those issues, the driver would print warnings whenever they
occur.
Nowadays, these issues are gone and the primary cause of these messages
is if the MAC is stuck during reset or busy processing a long
transmission. This is fairly harmless, yet these messages continue to
worry users.
To reduce the number of bogus bug reports, turn these messages into
debug messages and count their occurence in the "reset" debugfs file.

Before starting hostapd we create interface for it. The problem is we
try to create STA interface just to let hostapd change it to AP later.
It may fail if device doesn't support STA interfaces or if we already
hit a limit. Consider following phy (it's from BCM43602 and brcmfmac):
$ iw phy phy0 info | tail
valid interface combinations:
* #{ IBSS, managed } <= 1, #{ AP } <= 4, #{ P2P-client, P2P-GO } <= 1, #{ P2P-device } <= 1,
total <= 3, #channels <= 1
Trying to setup 2 interfaces: STA + AP results in:
radio0 (1101): command failed: Operation not supported (-95)
radio0 (1101): command failed: Operation not supported (-95)
radio0 (1101): command failed: Operation not supported (-95)

Two errors "netifd: radio0: sh: bad number" have recently surfaced in system
log in trunk when wifi interfaces come up. I tracked the errors to checking
numerical values of some config options without ensuring that the option has
any value.
The errors I see have apparently been introduced by r45051 (ieee80211r in
hostapd) and r45326 (start_disabled in mac80211). My patches fix two
instances of "bad number", but there may be a third one, as the original
report in bug 19345 pre-dates r45326 and already has two "bad number" errors
for radio0.

Subtarget legacy is supposed to support all ssb SoC except for BCM4705.
There are few BCM4703 devices with 802.11n supprt (WRT160N v1.0, v1.1).
Few BCM4704 devices with 802.11n: ASUS WL-500W, Linksys WRT150N v1.0 &
v1.1, Linksys WRT300N v1.0, Netgear WNDR3300 v1, WNR834B v1 & v2.
It seems we have to enable N-PHY for legacy as well to support above.
Unfortunately it increases root.squashfs size by 48 460 B.

Most AP devices out there do not have a properly programmed regulatory
domain code, which means they are limited to US frequencies by default.
This has been a major annoyance for a long time now. Since no fix for
the manfuacturing process seems to be forthcoming, the only sane option
seems to be to allow users to change the country code in such cases.

Part of rev 44173 added setting the SM Power Save capability in the hostapd.conf
file if the driver indicated that it was supported. It appears this was
incorrect, because the field in the actual HT Capabilities field in the AP
configuration is really a state indication. Just copying the state from the
capability resulted in the AP indicating that it had SMPS enabled all the time
if it supported SMPS. This effectively just disables all clients from sending
packets to the AP with more than one spatial stream, for no good reason.
So remove this part of the change.

This "patch to the patch" fixes a NULL pointer derefence crash in the new

this.

If '/sys/class/ieee80211/phyN' is not a symlink, the call to readlink

exist) or a path that begins with '/sys/class/ieee80211' (which does not

the path). Modify the checks to detect these conditions, and fallback to
