38a679a52b mac80211: Fix sta_mtx unlocking on insert STA failure path
Commit 34e895075e introduced sta_mtx
locking into sta_info_insert() (now sta_info_insert_rcu), but forgot
to unlock this mutex on one of the error paths. Fix this by adding
the missing mutex_unlock() call for the case where STA insert fails
due to an entry existing already. This may happen at least in AP mode
when a STA roams between two BSSes (vifs).

4fa0043731 mac80211: Fix HT rate control configuration
Handling HT configuration changes involved setting the channel
with the new HT parameters and then issuing a rate_update()
notification to the driver.

This behavior changed after the off-channel changes. Now, the channel
is not updated with the new HT params in enable_ht() - instead, it
is now done when the scan work terminates. This results in the driver
depending on stale information, defaulting to non-HT mode always.

Fix this by passing the new channel type to the driver.

9c87ba6734 mac80211: Fix reassociation processing (within ESS roaming)
Commit e1dd33f60ced091114e4aacf141e0d03b88d3e13 changed cfg80211 to
allow association commands while in associated state to enable support
for roaming within an ESS. However, this was not enough to resolve all
cases with mac80211 which needs some additional handling of the
reassociation case to clear internal state with the BSS that was in use
previously.

This patch makes ieee80211_mgd_assoc() accept a valid reassociation
command and clean the association state with the previous BSS. This
fixes roaming between BSSes in an ESS when using wpa_supplicant with
-Dnl80211.

b446918b77 mac80211: use listen interval 5 as default
Currently if a driver does not set hw.max_listen_interval a listen
interval of 1 is negotiated with the AP. Thus, the AP could drop
buffered frames for us after just one beacon interval which can
easily happen with the current powersave and scan implementation.
To avoid this issue increase the default interval to 5 which should
be a reasonable safe default.

026331c4d9 cfg80211/mac80211: allow registering for and sending action frames
This implements a new command to register for action frames
that userspace wants to handle instead of the in-kernel
rejection. It is then responsible for rejecting ones that
it decided not to handle. There is no unregistration, but
the socket can be closed for that.

Frames that are not registered for will not be forwarded
to userspace and will be rejected by the kernel, the
cfg80211 API helps implementing that.

Additionally, this patch adds a new command that allows
doing action frame transmission from userspace. It can be
used either to exchange action frames on the current
operational channel (e.g., with the AP with which we are
currently associated) or to exchange off-channel Public
Action frames with the remain-on-channel command.

IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL set. The initialization of the ieee80211_tx_info
struct is intentionally still executed.

e15276a4b2 mac80211: Reset dynamic ps timer in Rx path.
The current mac80211 implementation enables power save if there
is no Tx traffic for a specific timeout. Hence, PS is triggered
even if there is a continuous Rx only traffic(like UDP) going on.
This makes the drivers to wait on the tim bit in the next beacon
to awake which leads to redundant sleep-wake cycles.

34e895075e mac80211: allow station add/remove to sleep
Many drivers would like to sleep during station
addition and removal, and currently have a high
complexity there from not being able to.

This introduces two new callbacks sta_add() and
sta_remove() that drivers can implement instead
of using sta_notify() and that can sleep, and
the new sta_add() callback is also allowed to
fail.

The reason we didn't do this previously is that
the IBSS code wants to insert stations from the
RX path, which is a tasklet, so cannot sleep.
This patch will keep the station allocation in
that path, but moves adding the station to the
driver out of line. Since the addition can now
fail, we can have IBSS peer structs the driver
rejected -- in that case we still talk to the
station but never tell the driver about it in
the control.sta pointer. If there will ever be
a driver that has a low limit on the number of
stations and that cannot talk to any stations
that are not known to it, we need to do come up
with a new strategy of handling larger IBSSs,
maybe quicker expiry or rejecting peers.

c0ce77b832 mac80211: fix deferred hardware scan requests
Reinette found the reason for the warnings that
happened occasionally when a hw-offloaded scan
finished; her description of the problem:

  mac80211 will defer the handling of scan requests if it is
  busy with management work at the time. The scan requests
  are deferred and run after the work has completed. When
  this occurs there are currently two problems.

  * The scan request for hardware scan is not fully populated
    with the band and channels to scan not initialized.

  * When the scan is queued the state is not correctly updated
    to reflect that a scan is in progress. The problem here is
    that when the driver completes the scan and calls
    ieee80211_scan_completed() a warning will be triggered
    since mac80211 was not aware that a scan was in progress.

The reason is that the queued scan work will start
the hw scan right away when the hw_scan_req struct
has already been allocated. However, in the first
pass it will not have been filled, which happens
at the same time as setting the bits. To fix this,
simply move the allocation after the pending work
test as well, so that the first iteration of the
scan work will call __ieee80211_start_scan() even
in the hardware scan case.

Rate control should not be called to update the tx status
when HW does the RC.

b4d57adb72 mac80211: fix sta lookup with AP VLAN interfaces and injected frames
When injecting frames, mac80211 currently looks for the first AP
interface that matches the source address of the injected frame.
This breaks when such a frame is directed at a STA that has been moved
to a VLAN. This patch fixes it by using sta_info_get_bss instead of
sta_info_get, which also finds stations belonging to a VLAN interface
of the same BSS as the AP interface.

17ad353b8d mac80211: fix monitor mode tx radiotap header handling
When an injected frame gets buffered for a powersave STA or filtered
and retransmitted, mac80211 attempts to parse the radiotap header
again, which doesn't work because it's gone at that point.
This patch adds a new flag for checking the availability of a radiotap
header, so that it only attempts to parse it once, reusing the tx info
on the next call to ieee80211_tx().
This fixes severe issues with rekeying in AP mode.

4754ffd68b mac80211: fix sta lookup for received action frames on an AP VLAN
When looking for a matching interface, __ieee80211_rx_handle_packet
loops over all active interfaces, looking for matching stations.
Because AP VLAN interfaces are not processed as part of this loop, it
needs to use sta_info_get_bss instead of sta_info_get in order to find
a STA that has been moved to a VLAN.
This fixes issues with aggregation setup/teardown.

4c82bf8e56 mac80211: reduce stack usage in sta_ht_capa_read()
The maximal size of the "ht_capa" file is 430 bytes.  In most cases,
it's much shorter.  Use a 512 byte long buffer.  1024 bytes is too much
and causes a warning with CONFIG_FRAME_WARN=1024.

56007a028c mac80211: wait for beacon before enabling powersave
Because DTIM information is required for powersave
but is only conveyed in beacons, wait for a beacon
before enabling powersave, and change the way the
information is conveyed to the driver accordingly.

mwl8k doesn't currently seem to implement PS but
requires the DTIM period in a different way; after
talking to Lennert we agreed to just have mwl8k do
the parsing itself in the finalize_join work.

3092ad0544 mac80211: fix NULL pointer dereference when ftrace is enabled
I got below kernel oops when I try to bring down the network interface if
ftrace is enabled. The root cause is drv_ampdu_action() is passed with a
NULL ssn pointer in the BA session tear down case. We need to check and
avoid dereferencing it in trace entry assignment.
