98e93e968e mac80211: Complete ampdu work schedule during session tear down
Commit 7a7c0a6438 ("mac80211: fix TX aggregation start/stop callback race")
added a cancellation of the ampdu work after the loop that stopped the
Tx and Rx BA sessions. However, in some cases, e.g., during HW reconfig,
the low level driver might call mac80211 APIs to complete the stopping
of the BA sessions, which would queue the ampdu work to handle the actual
completion. This work needs to be performed as otherwise mac80211 data
structures would not be properly synced.

Fix this by checking if BA session STOP_CB bit is set after the BA session
cancellation and properly clean the session.

4df864c1d9 networking: make skb_put & friends return void pointers
It seems like a historic accident that these return unsigned char *,
and in many places that means casts are required, more often than not.

Make these functions (skb_put, __skb_put and pskb_put) return void *
and remove all the casts across the tree, adding a (u8 *) cast only
where the unsigned char pointer was used directly, all done with the
following spatch:

    @@
    expression SKB, LEN;
    typedef u8;
    identifier fn = { skb_put, __skb_put };
    @@
    - *(fn(SKB, LEN))
    + *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN)

    @@
    expression E, SKB, LEN;
    identifier fn = { skb_put, __skb_put };
    type T;
    @@
    - E = ((T *)(fn(SKB, LEN)))
    + E = fn(SKB, LEN)

which actually doesn't cover pskb_put since there are only three
users overall.

A handful of stragglers were converted manually, notably a macro in
drivers/isdn/i4l/isdn_bsdcomp.c and, oddly enough, one of the many
instances in net/bluetooth/hci_sock.c. In the former file, I also
had to fix one whitespace problem spatch introduced.

699cb58c8a mac80211: manage RX BA session offload without SKB queue
Instead of using the SKB queue with the fake pkt_type for the
offloaded RX BA session management, also handle this with the
normal aggregation state machine worker. This also makes the
use of this more reliable since it gets rid of the allocation
of the fake skb.

Combined with the previous patch, this finally allows us to
get rid of the pkt_type hack entirely, so do that as well.

7a7c0a6438 mac80211: fix TX aggregation start/stop callback race
When starting or stopping an aggregation session, one of the steps
is that the driver calls back to mac80211 that the start/stop can
proceed. This is handled by queueing up a fake SKB and processing
it from the normal iface/sdata work. Since this isn't flushed when
disassociating, the following race is possible:

 * associate
 * start aggregation session
 * driver callback
 * disassociate
 * associate again to the same AP
 * callback processing runs, leading to a WARN_ON() that
   the TID hadn't requested aggregation

If the second association isn't to the same AP, there would only
be a message printed ("Could not find station: <addr>"), but the
same race could happen.

Fix this by not going the whole detour with a fake SKB etc. but
simply looking up the aggregation session in the driver callback,
marking it with a START_CB/STOP_CB bit and then scheduling the
regular aggregation work that will now process these bits as well.
This also simplifies the code and gets rid of the whole problem
with allocation failures of said skb, which could have left the
session in limbo.

506bcfa8ab mac80211: limit the A-MSDU Tx based on peer's capabilities
In VHT, the specification allows to limit the number of
MSDUs in an A-MSDU in the Extended Capabilities IE. There
is also a limitation on the byte size in the VHT IE.
In HT, the only limitation is on the byte size.
Parse the capabilities from the peer and make them
available to the driver.

In HT, there is another limitation when a BA agreement
is active: the byte size can't be greater than 4095.
This is not enforced here.

c6e133277b mac80211: send {ADD,DEL}BA on AC_VO like other mgmt frames, as per spec
ATM, {ADD,DEL}BA and BAR frames are sent on the AC matching the TID of
the BA parameters. In the discussion [1] about this patch, Johannes
recalled that it fixed some races with the DELBA and indeed this
behavior was introduced in [2].
While [2] is right for the BARs, the part queueing the {ADD,DEL}BAs on
their BA params TID AC violates the spec and is more a workaround for
some drivers. Helmut expressed some concerns wrt such drivers, in
particular DELBAs in rt2x00.

ATM, DELBAs are sent after a driver has called (hence "purposely")
ieee80211_start_tx_ba_cb_irqsafe and Johannes and Emmanuel gave some
details wrt intentions behind the split of the IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_STOP_*
given to the driver ampdu_action supposed to call this function, which
could prove handy to people trying to do the right thing in faulty
drivers (if their fw/hw don't get in their way).

687da13223 mac80211: implement SMPS for AP
When the driver requests to move to STATIC or DYNAMIC SMPS,
we send an action frame to each associated station and
reconfigure the channel context / driver.
Of course, non-MIMO stations are ignored.

The beacon isn't updated. The association response will
include the original capabilities. Stations that associate
while in non-OFF SMPS mode will get an action frame right
after association to inform them about our current state.
Note that we wait until the end of the EAPOL. Sending an
action frame before the EAPOL is finished can be an issue
for a few clients. Clients aren't likely to send EAPOL
frames in MIMO anyway.

When the SMPS configuration gets more permissive (e.g.
STATIC -> OFF), we don't wake up stations that are asleep
We remember that they don't know about the change and send
the action frame when they wake up.

When the SMPS configuration gets more restrictive (e.g.
OFF -> STATIC), we set the TIM bit for every sleeping STA.
uAPSD stations might send MIMO until they poll the action
frame, but this is for a short period of time.

caused issues, for example having to unlock in places in

Additionally, I suspect some issues people have reported

such issues, when cfg80211 is asking mac80211 to change
state but mac80211 is in the process of telling cfg80211

c07270b605 mac80211: fix HT capability overrides for AP station
HT capabilites are asymmetric -- e.g. beamforming is both an
RX and TX capability. If, for example, we support RX but not
TX, the RX capability of the AP station is masked out (if it
supports it). This works correctly if it's really the driver
capability.

If, on the other hand, the reason for not supporting TX BF
is that it was removed by HT capability overrides then the
wrong thing happens: the AP's TX capability will be removed
rather than its RX capability, because the override function
works on own capabilities, not remote ones, and doesn't take
the asymmetry into account.

To fix this make a copy of our own capabilities, apply the
overrides to them (where needed) and then use that to set up
the peer's capabilities.

e1a0c6b3a4 mac80211: stop toggling IEEE80211_HT_CAP_SUP_WIDTH_20_40
For VHT, many more bandwidth changes are possible. As a first
step, stop toggling the IEEE80211_HT_CAP_SUP_WIDTH_20_40 flag
in the HT capabilities and instead introduce a bandwidth field
indicating the currently usable bandwidth to transmit to the
station. Of course, make all drivers use it.

To achieve this, make ieee80211_ht_cap_ie_to_sta_ht_cap() get
the station as an argument, rather than the new capabilities,
so it can set up the new bandwidth field.

If the station is a VHT station and VHT bandwidth is in use,
also set the bandwidth accordingly.

Doing this allows us to get rid of the supports_40mhz flag as
the HT capabilities now reflect the true capability instead of
the current setting.

While at it, also fix ieee80211_ht_cap_ie_to_sta_ht_cap() to not
ignore HT cap overrides when MCS TX isn't supported (not that it
really happens...)

Introduce IEEE80211_NUM_TIDS in the generic 802.11
header file and use it in place of STA_TID_NUM and
NUM_RX_DATA_QUEUES which are both really the number
of TIDs.

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.

24398e39c8 mac80211: set HT channel before association
Changing the channel type during operation is
confusing to some drivers and will be hard to
handle in multi-channel scenarios. Instead of
changing the channel, set it to the right HT
channel before authenticating/associating and
don't change it -- just update the 20/40 MHz
restrictions in rate control as needed when
changed by the AP.

This also fixes a problem that Paul missed in
his fix for the "regulatory makes us deaf"
issue -- when we couldn't use 40 MHz we still
associated saying we were using 40 MHz, which
could in similarly broken APs make us never
even connect successfully.

cf6bb79ad8 mac80211: Use appropriate TID for sending BAR, ADDBA and DELBA frames
Currently BAR, ADDBA and DELBA frames are always sent using AC_VO. If
the TID for which a BA session is established is assigned to a different
queue BAR, ADDBA and DELBA frames can "overtake" frames of the according
BA session.

Hence, always put BA session related frames into the same queue as the
BA sessions data frames.

13c40c5468 mac80211: Add HT operation modes for IBSS
The HT mode is set by iw (previous patchsets).
The interface is set into the specified HT mode.
HT mode and capabilities are announced in beacons.

If we add a station that uses HT also, the fastest matching HT mode will
be used for transmission. That means if we are using HT40+ and we add a station
running on HT40-, we would transfer at HT20.

If we join an IBSS with HT40, but the secondary channel is not
available, we will fall back into HT20 as well.

Allow frame aggregation to start in IBSS mode.

This implements ht-cap over-rides for mac80211 drivers.
HT may be disabled, making an /a/b/g/n station act like an
a/b/g station.  HT40 may be disabled forcing the station to
be HT20 even if the AP and local hardware support HT40.

MAX-AMSDU may be disabled.
AMPDU-Density may be increased.
AMPDU-Factor may be decreased.

This has been successfully tested with ath9k using patched
wpa_supplicant and iw.

c2c98fdeb5 mac80211: optimise station flags
The flaglock in struct sta_info has long been
something that I wanted to get rid of, this
finally does the conversion to atomic bitops.

The conversion itself is straight-forward in
most places, a few things needed to change a
bit since we can no longer use multiple bits
at the same time.

On x86-64, this is a fairly significant code
size reduction:

f41ccd71d8 mac80211: Stop BA session event from device
Some devices support BT/WLAN co-existence algorigthms.
In order not to harm the system performance and user experience, the device
requests not to allow any RX BA session and tear down existing RX BA sessions
based on system constraints such as periodic BT activity that needs to limit
WLAN activity (eg.SCO or A2DP).
In such cases, the intention is to limit the duration of the RX PPDU and
therefore prevent the peer device to use A-MPDU aggregation.

Adding ieee80211_stop_rx_ba_session() callback
that can be used by the driver to stop existing BA sessions.

40b275b69e mac80211: sparse RCU annotations
This adds sparse RCU annotations to most of
mac80211, only the mesh code remains to be
done.

Due the the previous patches, the annotations
are pretty simple. The only thing that this
actually changes is removing the RCU usage of
key->sta in debugfs since this pointer isn't
actually an RCU-managed pointer (it only has
a single assignment done before the key even
goes live). As that is otherwise harmless, I
decided to make it part of this patch.

ec034b208d mac80211: fix TX a-MPDU locking
During my quest to make mac80211 not have any RCU
warnings from sparse, I came across the a-MPDU code
again and it wasn't quite clear why it isn't racy.
So instead of assigning the tid_tx array with just
the spinlock held in ieee80211_start_tx_ba_session
use a separate temporary array protected only by
the spinlock and protect all assignments to the
"live" array by both the spinlock and the mutex so
that other code is easily verified to be correct.

Due to pointer assignment atomicity I don't think
this is a real issue, but I'm not sure, especially
on Alpha the current code might be problematic.

53f73c09d6 mac80211: avoid transmitting delBA to old AP
When roaming while we have active BA session,
we can end up transmitting delBA frames to
the old AP while we're already on the new AP's
channel, which can cause warnings.

Simply avoid sending those frames, but still
tear down the internal session state, since
they are not really necessary anyway as we
will implicitly disassociate when sending the
association to the new AP.
