4c3ebc56d7 mac80211: use chanctx reservation for STA CSA
Channel switch finalization is now 2-step. First
step is when driver calls chswitch_done(), the
other is when reservation is actually finalized
(which be defered for in-place reservation).

It is now safe to call ieee80211_chswitch_done()
more than once.

Also remove the ieee80211_vif_change_channel()
because it is no longer used.

5bcae31d9c mac80211: implement multi-vif in-place reservations
Multi-vif in-place reservations happen when
it is impossible to allocate more channel contexts
as indicated by interface combinations.

Such reservations are not finalized until all
assigned interfaces are ready.

This still doesn't handle all possible cases
(i.e. degradation of number of channels) properly.

633e271326 mac80211: split sched scan IEs
Split sched scan IEs to band specific and not band specific
blocks. Common IEs blocks may be sent to the FW once per command,
instead of per band.

This allows optimization of size of the command, which may be
required by some drivers (eg. iwlmvm with newer firmware version).

As this changes the mac80211 API, update all drivers to use the
new version correctly, even if they don't (yet) make use of the
split data.

c56ef67250 mac80211: support more than one band in scan request
Some drivers (such as iwlmvm) can handle multiple bands in a single
HW scan request. Add a HW flag to indicate that the driver support
this. To hold the required data, create a separate structure for
HW scan request that holds cfg scan request and data about
different parts of the scan IEs.

After sending a TDLS discovery-request, we expect a reply to arrive on

db67d661e8 mac80211: implement proper Tx path flushing for TDLS
As the spec mandates, flush data in the AP path before transmitting the
first setup frame. Data packets transmitted during setup are already
dropped in the Tx path.

For the teardown flow, flush all packets in the direct path before
transmitting the teardown frame. Un-authorize the peer sta after teardown
is sent, forcing all subsequent Tx to the peer through the AP.

Make sure to flush the queues when disabling the link to get the
teardown packet out.

cca07b00a5 mac80211: introduce refcount for queue_stop_reasons
Sometimes different vifs may be stopping the queues for the same
reason (e.g. when several interfaces are performing a channel switch).
Instead of using a bitmask for the reasons, use an integer that holds
a refcount instead.  In order to keep it backwards compatible,
introduce a boolean in some functions that tell us whether the queue
stopping should be refcounted or not.  For now, use not refcounted for
all calls to keep it functionally the same as before.

means it is unreliable to depend on it on codeflow

2b470c39e8 mac80211: remove ignore_plink_timer flag
The mesh_plink code is doing some interesting things with the
ignore_plink_timer flag.  It seems the original intent was to
handle this race:

cpu 0                           cpu 1
-----                           -----
                                start timer handler for state X
acquire sta_lock
change state from X to Y
mod_timer() / del_timer()
release sta_lock
                                acquire sta_lock
                                execute state Y timer too soon

However, using the mod_timer()/del_timer() return values to
detect these cases is broken.  As a result, timers get ignored
unnecessarily, and stations can get stuck in the peering state
machine.

Instead, we can detect the case by looking at the timer expiration.
In the case of del_timer, just ignore the timers in the following
(LISTEN/ESTAB) states since they won't have timers anyway.

5ac2e35030 mac80211: fix station/driver powersave race
It is currently possible to have a race due to the station PS
unblock work like this:
 * station goes to sleep with frames buffered in the driver
 * driver blocks wakeup
 * station wakes up again
 * driver flushes/returns frames, and unblocks, which schedules
   the unblock work
 * unblock work starts to run, and checks that the station is
   awake (i.e. that the WLAN_STA_PS_STA flag isn't set)
 * we process a received frame with PM=1, setting the flag again
 * ieee80211_sta_ps_deliver_wakeup() runs, delivering all frames
   to the driver, and then clearing the WLAN_STA_PS_DRIVER and
   WLAN_STA_PS_STA flags

In this scenario, mac80211 will think that the station is awake,
while it really is asleep, and any TX'ed frames should be filtered
by the device (it will know that the station is sleeping) but then
passed to mac80211 again, which will not buffer it either as it
thinks the station is awake, and eventually the packets will be
dropped.

Fix this by moving the clearing of the flags to exactly where we
learn about the situation. This creates a problem of reordering,
so introduce another flag indicating that delivery is being done,
this new flag also queues frames and is cleared only while the
spinlock is held (which the queuing code also holds) so that any
concurrent delivery/TX is handled correctly.

1a5f0c13d1 mac80211: add a single-transaction driver op to switch contexts
In some cases, when the driver is already using all the channel
contexts it can handle at once, we have to do an in-place switch
(ie. we cannot afford using an extra context temporarily for the
transaction).  But some drivers may not support switching the channel
context assigned to a vif on the fly (ie. without unassigning and
assigning it) while others may only work if the context is changed on
the fly, without unassigning it first.

To allow these different scenarios, add a new driver operation that
let's the driver decide how to handle an in-place switch.

cca674d47e mac80211: export the expected throughput
Add get_expected_throughput() API to mac80211 so that each
driver can implement its own version based on the RC
algorithm they are using (might be using an HW RC algo).
The API returns a value expressed in Kbps.

Also, add the new get_expected_throughput() member
to the rate_control_ops structure in order to be
able to query the RC algorithm (this patch provides an
implementation of this API for both minstrel and
minstrel_ht).

The related member in the station_info object is now
filled accordingly when dumping a station.

Antonio and I were looking over this code and some things
didn't immediately make sense, so we came up with two small
clarifications.

1af586c911 mac80211: Handle the CSA counters correctly
Make the beacon CSA counters part of ieee80211_mutable_offsets and don't
decrement CSA counters when generating a beacon template. This permits the
driver to offload the CSA counters handling. Since mac80211 updates the probe
responses with the correct counter, the driver should sync the counter's value
with mac80211 using ieee80211_csa_update_counter function.

Add a new API ieee80211_beacon_get_template, which doesn't
affect DTIM counter and should be used if the device generates beacon
frames, and new beacon template is needed. In addition set the offsets
to TIM IE for MESH interface.

9a774c78e2 cfg80211: Support multiple CSA counters
Change the type of NL80211_ATTR_CSA_C_OFF_BEACON and
NL80211_ATTR_CSA_C_OFF_PRESP to be NLA_BINARY which allows
userspace to use beacons and probe responses with
multiple CSA counters.
This isn't breaking the API since userspace can
continue to use nla_put_u16 for this attributes, which
is equivalent to a single element u16 array.
In addition advertise max number of supported CSA counters.
This is needed when using CSA and eCSA IEs together.
