15d6030b4b cfg80211: add support for flushing old scan results
Add an NL80211_SCAN_FLAG_FLUSH flag that causes old bss cache
entries to be flushed on scan completion. This is useful for
collecting guaranteed fresh scan/survey result (e.g. on resume).

For normal scan, flushing only happens on successful completion
of a scan; i.e. it does not happen if the scan is aborted.
For scheduled scan, previous scan results are flushed everytime
when we get new scan results.

This feature is enabled by default. Drivers can disable it by
unsetting the NL80211_FEATURE_SCAN_FLUSH flag.

64629b9d41 cfg80211: Fix regulatory check for 60GHz band frequencies
The current regulatory code on cfg80211 performs a check to
see if a regulatory rule belongs to an IEEE band so that if
a Country IE is received and no rules are specified for a
band (which is allowed by IEEE) those bands are left intact.
The current band check assumes a rule is bound to a band
if the rule's start or end frequency is less than 2 GHz
apart from the center of frequency being inspected.

In order to support 60 GHz for 802.11ad we need to increase
this to account for the channel spacing of 2160 MHz whereby
a channel somewhere in the middle of a regulatory rule may
be more than 2 GHz apart from either the beginning or
end of the frequency rule.

Without a fix for this even though channels 1-3 are allowed world
wide on the rule (57240 - 63720 @ 2160), channel 2 at 60480 MHz
will end up getting disabled given that it is 3240 MHz from
both the frequency rule start and end frequency. Fix this by
using 2 GHz separation assumption for the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands
but for 60 GHz use a 10 GHz separation before assuming a rule
is not part of the band.

Since we have no 802.11ad drivers yet merged this change has
no impact to existing Linux upstream device drivers.

a85d0d7f34 cfg80211: fix possible circular lock on reg_regdb_search()
When call_crda() is called we kick off a witch hunt search
for the same regulatory domain on our internal regulatory
database and that work gets kicked off on a workqueue, this
is done while the cfg80211_mutex is held. If that workqueue
kicks off it will first lock reg_regdb_search_mutex and
later cfg80211_mutex but to ensure two CPUs will not contend
against cfg80211_mutex the right thing to do is to have the
reg_regdb_search() wait until the cfg80211_mutex is let go.

The lockdep report is pasted below.

98104fdeda cfg80211: add P2P Device abstraction
In order to support using a different MAC address
for the P2P Device address we must first have a
P2P Device abstraction that can be assigned a MAC
address.

This abstraction will also be useful to support
offloading P2P operations to the device, e.g.
periodic listen for discoverability.

Currently, the driver is responsible for assigning
a MAC address to the P2P Device, but this could be
changed by allowing a MAC address to be given to
the NEW_INTERFACE command.

As it has no associated netdev, a P2P Device can
only be identified by its wdev identifier but the
previous patches allowed using the wdev identifier
in various APIs, e.g. remain-on-channel.

03f6b0843a cfg80211: add channel flag to prohibit OFDM operation
Currently the only way for wireless drivers to tell whether or not OFDM
is allowed on the current channel is to check the regulatory
information. However, this requires hodling cfg80211_mutex, which is not
visible to the drivers.

Other regulatory restrictions are provided as flags in the channel
definition, so let's do similarly with OFDM. This patch adds a new flag,
IEEE80211_CHAN_NO_OFDM, to tell drivers that OFDM on a channel is not
allowed. This flag is set on any channels for which regulatory indicates
that OFDM is prohibited.

5e31fc0815 wireless: reg: restore previous behaviour of chan->max_power calculations
commit eccc068e8e
Author: Hong Wu <Hong.Wu@dspg.com>
Date:   Wed Jan 11 20:33:39 2012 +0200

    wireless: Save original maximum regulatory transmission power for the calucation of the local maximum transmit pow

changed the way we calculate chan->max_power as min(chan->max_power,
chan->max_reg_power). That broke rt2x00 (and perhaps some other
drivers) that do not set chan->max_power. It is not so easy to fix this
problem correctly in rt2x00.

According to commit eccc068e8 changelog, change claim only to save
maximum regulatory power - changing setting of chan->max_power was side
effect. This patch restore previous calculations of chan->max_power and
do not touch chan->max_reg_power.

14cdf11201 cfg80211: remove regulatory_update()
regulatory_update() just calls wiphy_update_regulatory().
wiphy_update_regulatory() assumes you already have
the reg_mutex held so just move the call within locking
context and kill the superfluous regulatory_update().

Now that we have wiphy_regulatory_register() we can
tuck away the core's regulatory_update() call there
and make it static.

bfead0808c cfg80211: rename reg_device_remove() to wiphy_regulatory_deregister()
This makes it clearer what we're doing. This now makes a bit
more sense given that regardless of the wiphy if the cell
base station hint feature is supported we will be modifying the
way the regulatory core behaves.

57b5ce072e cfg80211: add cellular base station regulatory hint support
Cellular base stations can provide hints to cfg80211 about
where they think we are. This can be done for example on
a cell phone. To enable these hints we simply allow them
through as user regulatory hints but we allow userspace
to clasify the hint as either coming directly from the
user or coming from a cellular base station. This option
is only available when you enable
CONFIG_CFG80211_CERTIFICATION_ONUS.

The base station hints themselves will not be processed
by the core unless at least one device on the system
supports this feature.

b594bab902 cfg80211: add CONFIG_CFG80211_CERTIFICATION_ONUS
This adds CONFIG_CFG80211_CERTIFICATION_ONUS which is to
be used for features / code which require a bit of work on
the system integrator's part to ensure that the system will
still pass 802.11 regulatory certification. This option is
also usable for researchers and experimenters looking to add
code in the kernel without impacting compliant code.

We'd use CONFIG_EXPERT alone but it seems that most standard
Linux distributions are enabling CONFIG_EXPERT already. This
allows us to define 802.11 specific kernel features under a
flag that is intended by design to be disabled by standard
Linux distributions, and only enabled by system integrators
or distributions that have done work to ensure regulatory
certification on the system with the enabled features.

959085352b cfg80211: fix set_regdom() to cancel requests with same alpha2
While adding regulatory support to ath6kl I noticed that I easily
got the regulatory code confused. The way to reproduce the bug was:

1. iw reg set FI (in userspace)
2. cfg80211 calls ath6kl_reg_notify(FI)
3. ath6kl sets regdomain in firmware
4. firmware sends regdomain event to notify about the new regdomain (FI)
5. ath6kl calls regulatory_hint(FI)

And this (from FI to FI transition) confuses cfg80211 and after that I
only get "Pending regulatory request, waiting for it to be
processed...." messages and regdomain changes won't work anymore.

The reason why ath6kl calls regulatory_hint() is that firmware can change
the regulatory domain by it's own, for example due to 11d IEs. I could
of course workaround this in ath6kl but I think it's better to handle
the case in cfg80211.

The fix is pretty simple, use a different error code if the regdomain is
same and then just set the request processed so that it doesn't block new
requests.

Let the user configure serveral TX error conection quality monitoring
parameters: % error rate, survey interval, and # of attempted packets.

On exceeding the TX failure rate over the given interval, the driver
will send a CQM notify event with the actual TX failure rate and
packets attempted.

4290cb4bf2 cfg80211: reduce monitor interface tracking
Revert commit b78e8ceac2
("cfg80211: track monitor channel") and remove the
set_monitor_enabled() callback.

Due to the tracking happening in NETDEV_PRE_UP, it had
introduced bugs because the monitor interface callback
would be called before the device was started. It looks
like there's no way to fix this, and using NETDEV_PRE_UP
is broken anyway (since there's no NETDEV_UP_FAIL), so
remove all that code, track interfaces in NETDEV_UP and
also stop tracking the monitor channel in cfg80211.

This mostly reverts to before the tracking, except that
we keep the interface count tracking so that setting the
monitor channel can be rejected properly.

5b7ccaf3fc cfg80211/mac80211: re-add get_channel operation
This essentially reverts commit 2e165b8184 but
introduces the get_channel operation with a new
wireless_dev argument so that you can retrieve
the channel per interface. This is necessary as
even though we can track all interface channels
(except monitor) we can't track the channel type
used.
