4abb52a46e mac80211: pass bssids to elements parsing function
In multiple BSSID, we have nested IEs inside the multiple
BSSID IE, that override the external ones for that specific
BSS. As preparation for supporting that, pass 2 BSSIDs to the
parse function, the transmitter, and the selected BSSID, so
it can know which IEs to choose. If the selected BSSID is
NULL, the outer ones will be applied.

Change ieee80211_bss_info_update to parse elements itself,
instead of receiving them parsed, so we have the relevant
bss entry in hand.

c420551057 mac80211: fix TX status reporting for ieee80211s
TX status reporting to ieee80211s is through ieee80211s_update_metric.
There are two problems about ieee80211s_update_metric:

1. The purpose is to estimate the fail probability
to a specific link. No need to restrict to data frame.

2. Current implementation does not work if wireless driver does not
pass tx_status with skb.

Fix this by removing ieee80211_is_data condition, passing
ieee80211_tx_status directly to ieee80211s_update_metric, and
putting it in both __ieee80211_tx_status and ieee80211_tx_status_ext.

5df20f2141 mac80211: make mpath path fixing more robust
A fixed mpath was not quite being treated as such:

1) if a PERR frame was received, a fixed mpath was
   deactivated.

2) queued path discovery for fixed mpath was potentially
   being considered, changing mpath state.

3) other mpath flags were potentially being inherited when
   fixing the mpath. Just assign PATH_FIXED and SN_VALID.

This solves several issues when fixing a mesh path in one
direction. The reverse direction mpath should probably
also be fixed, or root announcements at least be enabled.

749329594b mac80211: mesh: fix crash in mesh_path_timer
The mesh_path_reclaim() function, called from an rcu callback, cancels
the mesh_path_timer associated with a mesh path.  Unfortunately, this
call can happen much later, perhaps after the hash table itself is
destroyed.

Such a situation led to the following crash in mesh_path_send_to_gates()
when dereferencing the tbl pointer:

Instead of cancelling in the RCU callback, set a new flag to prevent the
timer from being rearmed, and then cancel the timer synchronously when
freeing the mesh path.  This leaves mesh_path_reclaim() doing nothing
but kfree, so switch to kfree_rcu().

d8f0300a7a mac80211: mac80211: Check SN for deactivated mpaths
When processing a PREQ or PREP it's critical to use the incoming SN. If
that is improperly done routing loops and other types of badness can
happen. But the code was always processing path messages for deactivated
paths. This path fixes that so that if we have a valid SN then we use it
to verify that it is a message we can accept. For reference the relevant
section of the standard is 13.10.8.4 which doesn't address the deactivated
path case at all.

I also included a special case for when our peer reboots or restarts
networking. This is an important case because without it there can be a
very long delay before we accept path messages from that peer. It's also a
simple case and intimately associated with processing messages for
deactivated paths so I used one patch instead of two.

d82547106f mac80211: mesh: don't invalidate SN on discovery failure
The 2012 spec mentions that path SNs can be invalid when created (see
section 13.10.8.4 table 13-9) but AFAICT never talks about invalidating
SNs. Which makes sense: if we have figured out the path to a target at a
certain SN then we want to remember that fact. Failing to do so can lead
to routing loops because if we don't have a valid SN then we have no way
of knowing whether an incoming path message leads to or away from the
target.

However currently when discovery fails we zero out mpath->flags which
clears MESH_PATH_SN_VALID. This patch fixes that so that only the
discovery relevant flags are cleared.

5ec596c41b mac80211: Fix a case of incorrect metric used when forwarding a PREQ
This patch fixes a bug in hwmp_preq_frame_process where the wrong metric
can be used when forwarding a PREQ. This happens because the code uses
the same metric variable to record the value of the metric to the source
of the PREQ and the value of the metric to the target of the PREQ.

This comes into play when both reply and forward are set which happens
when IEEE80211_PREQ_PROACTIVE_PREP_FLAG is set and when MP_F_DO | MP_F_RF
is set. The original code had a special case to handle the first case
but not the second.

The patch uses distinct variables for the two metrics which makes the
code flow much clearer and removes the need to restore the original
value of metric when forwarding.

aee6499c8c mac80211: mesh: use u16 return type for u16 getter
u16_field_get() is a simple wrapper around get_unaligned_le16(),
and it is being assigned to a u16, so there's no need to
promote to u32 in the middle.

2475b1cc0d mac80211: add generic cipher scheme support
This adds generic cipher scheme support to mac80211, such schemes
are fully under control by the driver. On hw registration drivers
may specify additional HW ciphers with a scheme how these ciphers
have to be handled by mac80211 TX/RR. A cipher scheme specifies a
cipher suite value, a size of the security header to be added to
or stripped from frames and how the PN is to be verified on RX.

b2e506bfc4 mac80211: parse VHT channel switch IEs
VHT introduces multiple IEs that need to be parsed for a
wide bandwidth channel switch. Two are (currently) needed
in mac80211:
 * wide bandwidth channel switch element
 * channel switch wrapper element

The former is contained in the latter for beacons and probe
responses, but not for the spectrum management action frames
so the IE parser needs a new argument to differentiate them.

ae76eef027 mac80211: return new mpath from mesh_path_add()
Most times that mesh_path_add() is called, it is followed by
a lookup to get the just-added mpath.  We can instead just
return the new mpath in the case that we allocated one (or the
existing one if already there), so do that.  Also, reorder the
code in mesh_path_add a bit so that we don't need to allocate
in the pre-existing case.

The mesh hwmp debug message is a bit confusing. The "sending PREP

3f52b7e328 mac80211: mesh power save basics
Add routines to
- maintain a PS mode for each peer and a non-peer PS mode
- indicate own PS mode in transmitted frames
- track neighbor STAs power modes
- buffer frames when neighbors are in PS mode
- add TIM and Awake Window IE to beacons
- release frames in Mesh Peer Service Periods

Add local_pm to sta_info to represent the link-specific power
mode at this station towards the remote station. When a peer
link is established, use the default power mode stored in mesh
config. Update the PS status if the peering status of a neighbor
changes.
Maintain a mesh power mode for non-peer mesh STAs. Set the
non-peer power mode to active mode during peering. Authenticated
mesh peering is currently not working when either node is
configured to be in power save mode.

Indicate the current power mode in transmitted frames. Use QoS
Nulls to indicate mesh power mode transitions.
For performance reasons, calls to the function setting the frame
flags are placed in HWMP routing routines, as there the STA
pointer is already available.

Add peer_pm to sta_info to represent the peer's link-specific
power mode towards the local station. Add nonpeer_pm to
represent the peer's power mode towards all non-peer stations.
Track power modes based on received frames.

Add the ps_data structure to ieee80211_if_mesh (for TIM map, PS
neighbor counter and group-addressed frame buffer).

Set WLAN_STA_PS flag for STA in PS mode to use the unicast frame
buffering routines in the tx path. Update num_sta_ps to buffer
and release group-addressed frames after DTIM beacons.

Announce the awake window duration in beacons if in light or
deep sleep mode towards any peer or non-peer. Create a TIM IE
similarly to AP mode and add it to mesh beacons. Parse received
Awake Window IEs and check TIM IEs for buffered frames.

Release frames towards peers in mesh Peer Service Periods. Use
the corresponding trigger frames and monitor the MPSP status.
Append a QoS Null as trigger frame if neccessary to properly end
the MPSP. Currently, in HT channels MPSPs behave imperfectly and
show large delay spikes and frame losses.

bdcbd8e0e3 mac80211: clean up debugging
There are a few things that make the logging and
debugging in mac80211 less useful than it should
be right now:
 * a lot of messages should be pr_info, not pr_debug
 * wholesale use of pr_debug makes it require *both*
   Kconfig and dynamic configuration
 * there are still a lot of ifdefs
 * the style is very inconsistent, sometimes the
   sdata->name is printed in front

Clean up everything, introducing new macros and
separating out the station MLME debugging into
a new Kconfig symbol.

7ebfa46973 mac80211: fix and improve mesh RANN processing
This patch fixes the problem of dropping RANN element if the TTL
is 1. If the received RANN element TTL is 1 or greater than 1, the
RANN is processed. However, forwarding of received RANN element
with TTL 1 or less is prohibited according to the standard. This
is previously reported by Monthadar Al Jaberi.

Besides, this patch also avoid the processing of unicast PREQ
generation if the RANN element does not meet the acceptance
criteria mentioned in Sec. 13.10.12.4.2 of IEEE Std. 802.11-2012.

As defined in section 13.10.9.3 Case D (802.11-2012), this
control variable is used to limit the mesh STA to send only
one PREQ to a root mesh STA within this interval of time
(in TUs). The default value for this variable is set to
2000 TUs. However, for current implementation, the maximum
configurable of dot11MeshHWMPconfirmationInterval is
restricted by dot11MeshHWMPactivePathTimeout.
