71bbc99438 cfg80211: use wdev in mgmt-tx/ROC APIs
The management frame and remain-on-channel APIs will be
needed in the P2P device abstraction, so move them over
to the new wdev-based APIs. Userspace can still use both
the interface index and wdev identifier for them so it's
backward compatible, but for the P2P Device wdev it will
be able to use the wdev identifier only.

ba22fb5b25 nl80211: don't assume wdev->netdev exists
There are a few places that iterate the wdev

1bf614ef79 nl80211: add NL80211_FLAG_NEED_WDEV
Some nl80211 callbacks will soon need the wdev instead
of the netdev, so add NL80211_FLAG_NEED_WDEV to allow
them to request that. Add NL80211_FLAG_NEED_WDEV_UP as
well which checks the netdev is UP if one exists.

89a54e48b9 nl80211: prepare for non-netdev wireless devs
In order to support a P2P device abstraction and
Bluetooth high-speed AMPs, we need to have a way
to identify virtual interfaces that don't have a
netdev associated.

Do this by adding a NL80211_ATTR_WDEV attribute
to identify a wdev which may or may not also be
a netdev.

To simplify things, use a 64-bit value with the
high 32 bits being the wiphy index for this new
wdev identifier in the nl80211 API.

8eb41c8dfb {nl,cfg}80211: support high bitrates
Until now, a u16 value was used to represent bitrate value.
With VHT bitrates this becomes too small.

Introduce a new 32-bit bitrate attribute. nl80211 will report
both the new and the old attribute, unless the bitrate doesn't
fit into the old u16 attribute in which case only the new one
will be reported.

User space tools encouraged to prefer the 32-bit attribute, if
available (since it won't be available on older kernels.)

c5a7e58249 cfg80211: fix locking regression in monitor channel tracking
Michal's monitor channel tracking introduce a locking problem
as it locked the rdev lock inside the netdev notifier which
isn't allowed as we might already hold it if we get there by
removing an interface that is up.

Fix this by relying only on the RTNL to protect the interface
counters, the RTNL is always held in these code paths anyway.

dbbae26afa cfg80211: track monitor interfaces count
Implements .set_monitor_enabled(wiphy, enabled).

Notifies driver upon change of interface layout.

If only monitor interfaces become present it is
called with 2nd argument being true. If
non-monitor interface appears then 2nd argument
is false. Driver is notified only upon change.

This makes it more obvious about the fact that
cfg80211 supports single monitor channel. Once we
implement multi-channel we don't want to allow
setting monitor channel while other interface
types are running. Otherwise it would be ambiguous
once we start considering num_different_channels.

systems that don't need it as they never suspend.

46c1dd0c7f cfg80211: fix regression in multi-vif AP start
Commit "cfg80211: provide channel to start_ap function" assumes that the
channel is always passed to the NL80211_CMD_START_AP command, however
in case of multi-BSSID, hostapd only passes the channel for the first vif.
This makes starting beaconing on secondary vifs fail with -EINVAL.

Fix this by storing the channel provided to .start_ap in wdev->preset_chan
and picking the first AP vif's channel for secondary vifs if not provided.

Don't validate interface combinations on a stopped

This also skips some other functions when
interface is stopped and changing interface type.

ebf348fcd0 cfg80211: validate remain-on-channel time better
The remain-on-channel time validation shouldn't
depend on the value of HZ, as it does now with
the check against jiffies, since then you might
use a value that works on one system but not on
another. Fix it by checking against a minimum
that's fixed.

Also add validation of the wait duration for a
management frame TX since this also translates
into remain-on-channel internally.

cc1d2806bf cfg80211: provide channel to join_mesh function
Just like the AP mode patch, instead of setting
the channel and then joining the mesh network,
provide the channel to join the network on to
the join_mesh() function.

Like in AP mode, you can also give the channel
to the join-mesh nl80211 command now.

Unlike AP mode, it picks a default channel if
none was given.

As libertas uses mesh mode interfaces but has
no join_mesh callback and we can't simply break
it, keep some compatibility code for that case
and configure the channel directly for it.

In the non-libertas case, where we store the
channel until join, allow setting it while the
interface is down.

685d12a192 cfg80211: disallow setting channel on WDS interfaces
If it worked (Felix says it doesn't right now), the
typical use-case for WDS interfaces would be to be
slaved to AP mode interfaces. Therefore, it isn't
necessary to set the channel on WDS interfaces. As
they don't support powersave or anything like that,
they also couldn't use a different channel anyway.

aa430da410 cfg80211: provide channel to start_ap function
Instead of setting the channel first and then
starting the AP, let cfg80211 store the channel
and provide it as one of the AP settings.

This means that now you have to set the channel
before you can start an AP interface, but since
hostapd/wpa_supplicant always do that we're OK
with this change.

Alternatively, it's now possible to give the
channel as an attribute to the start-ap nl80211
command, overriding any preset channel.

6d52563f2b cfg80211/mac80211: enable proper device_set_wakeup_enable handling
In WoWLAN, we only get the triggers when we actually get
to suspend. As a consequence, drivers currently don't
know that the device should enable wakeup. However, the
device_set_wakeup_enable() API is intended to be called
when the wakeup is enabled, not later when needed.

Add a new set_wakeup() call to cfg80211 and mac80211 to
allow drivers to properly call device_set_wakeup_enable.

a3304b0a17 cfg80211/nl80211: clarify TX queue API
With the plan to change mac80211's queue API to
not map ACs to queues 1:1, it seems necessary to
clarify some APIs that act on ACs rather than on
queues to spell that out explicitly. Do this.

Also verify that the AC number given is valid.

80007efeff cfg80211: warn if db.txt is empty with CONFIG_CFG80211_INTERNAL_REGDB
It has happened twice now where elaborate troubleshooting has
undergone on systems where CONFIG_CFG80211_INTERNAL_REGDB [0]
has been set but yet net/wireless/db.txt was not updated.

Despite the documentation on this it seems system integrators could
use some more help with this, so throw out a kernel warning at boot time
when their database is empty.

This does mean that the error-prone system integrator won't likely
realize the issue until they boot the machine but -- it does not seem
to make sense to enable a build bug breaking random build testing.

2b5f8b0b44 nl80211: ensure interface is up in various APIs
The nl80211 handling code should ensure as much as
it can that the interface is in a valid state, it
can certainly ensure the interface is running.

Not doing so can cause calls through mac80211 into
the driver that result in warnings and unspecified
behaviour in the driver.

5d32c88f0b Merge branch 'akpm' (Andrew's patch-bomb)
Merge batch of fixes from Andrew Morton:
 "The simple_open() cleanup was held back while I wanted for laggards to
  merge things.

  I still need to send a few checkpoint/restore patches.  I've been
  wobbly about merging them because I'm wobbly about the overall
  prospects for success of the project.  But after speaking with Pavel
  at the LSF conference, it sounds like they're further toward
  completion than I feared - apparently davem is at the "has stopped
  complaining" stage regarding the net changes.  So I need to go back
  and re-review those patchs and their (lengthy) discussion."

234e340582 simple_open: automatically convert to simple_open()
Many users of debugfs copy the implementation of default_open() when
they want to support a custom read/write function op.  This leads to a
proliferation of the default_open() implementation across the entire
tree.

Now that the common implementation has been consolidated into libfs we
can replace all the users of this function with simple_open().

This replacement was done with the following semantic patch:

<smpl>
@ open @
identifier open_f != simple_open;
identifier i, f;
@@
-int open_f(struct inode *i, struct file *f)
-{
(
-if (i->i_private)
-f->private_data = i->i_private;
|
-f->private_data = i->i_private;
)
-return 0;
-}

@ has_open depends on open @
identifier fops;
identifier open.open_f;
@@
struct file_operations fops = {
...
-.open = open_f,
+.open = simple_open,
...
};
</smpl>

66266b3ab4 cfg80211: allow CFG80211_SIGNAL_TYPE_UNSPEC in station_info
The station_info struct had demanded dBm signal values, but the
cfg80211 wireless extensions implementation was also accepting
"unspecified" (i.e. RSSI) unit values while the nl80211 code was
completely unaware of them.  Resolve this by formally allowing the
"unspecified" units while making nl80211 ignore them.

1b658f118b cfg80211: Add an attribute to set inactivity timeout in AP mode
This patch adds an attribute, NL80211_ATTR_INACTIVITY_TIMEOUT,
to set the inactivity timeout which can be used to remove the
station in AP mode. This can be passed in NL80211_CMD_START_AP
and used by the drivers which have AP MLME in firmware but
don't support get_station() properly. To disable inactivity
timer in userspace, wpa_s for example, there is a new flag,
NL80211_FEATURE_INACTIVITY_TIMER, in nl80211_feature_flags
through which drivers can register their capability to use
the inactivity timeout to free the stations.

5533513784 {nl,cfg,mac}80211: Implement RSSI threshold for mesh peering
Mesh peer links are established only if average rssi of the peer
candidate satisfies the threshold. This is not in 802.11s specification
but was requested by David Fulgham, an open80211s user. This is a way to avoid
marginal peer links with stations that are barely within range.

This patch adds a new mesh configuration parameter, mesh_rssi_threshold. This
feature is supported only for hardwares that report signal in dBm.
