57fbcce37b cfg80211: remove enum ieee80211_band
This enum is already perfectly aliased to enum nl80211_band, and
the only reason for it is that we get IEEE80211_NUM_BANDS out of

17b9424786 cfg80211: allow userspace to specify client P2P PS support
Legacy clients don't support P2P power save mechanisms, and thus
if a P2P GO has a legacy client connected to it, it has to make
some changes in the PS behavior.

To handle this, add an attribute to specify whether a station supports
P2P PS or not. If the attribute was not specified cfg80211 will assume
that station supports it for P2P GO interface, and does NOT support it
for AP interface, matching the current assumptions in the code.

818965d391 cfg80211: Allow a scan request for a specific BSSID
This allows scans for a specific BSSID to be optimized by the user space
application by requesting the driver to set the Probe Request frame
BSSID field (Address 3) to the specified BSSID instead of the wildcard
BSSID. This prevents other APs from replying which reduces airtime need
and latency in getting the response from the target AP through.

This is an optimization and as such, it is acceptable for some of the
drivers not to support the mechanism. If not supported, the wildcard
BSSID will be used and more responses may be received.

0c9ca11b1a cfg80211: Add global RRM capability
Today, the supplicant will add the RRM capabilities
Information Element in the association request only if
Quiet period is supported (NL80211_FEATURE_QUIET).

Quiet is one of many RRM features, and there are other RRM
features that are not related to Quiet (e.g. neighbor
report). Therefore, requiring Quiet to enable RRM is too
restrictive.
Some of the features, like neighbor report, can be
supported by user space without any help from the kernel.
Hence adding the RRM capabilities IE to association request
should be the sole user space's decision.
Removing the RRM dependency on Quiet in the driver solves
this problem, but using an old driver with a user space
tool that would not require Quiet feature would be
problematic: the user space would add NL80211_ATTR_USE_RRM
in the association request even if the kernel doesn't
advertize NL80211_FEATURE_QUIET and the association would
be denied by the kernel.

This solution adds a global RRM capability, that tells user
space that it can request RRM capabilities IE publishment
without any specific feature support in the kernel.

PBSS (Personal Basic Service Set) is a new BSS type for DMG
networks. It is similar to infrastructure BSS, having an AP-like
entity called PCP (PBSS Control Point), but it has few differences.
PBSS support is mandatory for 11ad devices.

3b06d27795 cfg80211: Add multiple scan plans for scheduled scan
Add the option to configure multiple 'scan plans' for scheduled scan.
Each 'scan plan' defines the number of scan cycles and the interval
between scans. The scan plans are executed in the order they were
configured. The last scan plan will always run infinitely and thus
defines only the interval between scans.
The maximum number of scan plans supported by the device and the
maximum number of iterations in a single scan plan are advertised
to userspace so it can configure the scan plans appropriately.

When scheduled scan results are received there is no way to know which
scan plan is being currently executed, so there is no way to know when
the next scan iteration will start. This is not a problem, however.
The scan start timestamp is only used for flushing old scan results,
and there is no difference between flushing all results received until
the end of the previous iteration or the start of the current one,
since no results will be received in between.

6e19bc4b70 nl80211: allow BSS data to include CLOCK_BOOTTIME timestamp
For location and connectivity services, userspace would often like
to know the time when the BSS was last seen. The current "last seen"
value is calculated in a way that makes it less useful, especially
if the system suspended in the meantime.

Add the ability for the driver to report a real CLOCK_BOOTTIME stamp
that can then be reported to userspace (if present).

Drivers wishing to use this must be converted to the new API to call
cfg80211_inform_bss_data() or cfg80211_inform_bss_frame_data(). They
need to ensure the reported value is accurate enough even when the
frame might have been buffered in the device (e.g. firmware.)

0505075360 cfg80211: Add API to change the indoor regulatory setting
Previously, the indoor setting configuration assumed that as
long as a station interface is connected, the indoor environment
setting does not change. However, this assumption is problematic
as:

- It is possible that a station interface is connected to a mobile
  AP, e.g., softAP or a P2P GO, where it is possible that both the
  station and the mobile AP move out of the indoor environment making
  the indoor setting invalid. In such a case, user space has no way to
  invalidate the setting.
- A station interface disconnection does not necessarily imply that
  the device is no longer operating in an indoor environment, e.g.,
  it is possible that the station interface is roaming but is still
  stays indoor.

To handle the above, extend the indoor configuration API to allow
user space to indicate a change of indoor settings, and allow it to
indicate weather it controls the indoor setting, such that:

1. If the user space process explicitly indicates that it is going
   to control the indoor setting, do not clear the indoor setting
   internally, unless the socket is released. The user space process
   should use the NL80211_ATTR_SOCKET_OWNER attribute in the command
   to state that it is going to control the indoor setting.
2. Reset the indoor setting when restoring the regulatory settings in
   case it is not owned by a user space process.

Based on the above, a user space tool that continuously monitors the
indoor settings, i.e., tracking power setting, location etc., can
indicate environment changes to the regulatory core.

It should be noted that currently user space is the only provided mechanism
used to hint to the regulatory core over the indoor/outdoor environment --
while the country IEs do have an environment setting this has been completely
ignored by the regulatory core by design for a while now since country IEs
typically can contain bogus data.

98fc43864a nl80211: prohibit mixing 'any' and regular wowlan triggers
If the device supports waking up on 'any' signal - i.e. it continues
operating as usual and wakes up the host on pretty much anything that
happens, then it makes no sense to also configure the more restricted
WoWLAN mode where the device operates more autonomously but also in a
more restricted fashion.

Currently only cw2100 supports both 'any' and other triggers, but it
seems to be broken as it doesn't configure anything to the device, so
we can't currently get into a situation where both even can correctly
be configured. This is about to change (Intel devices are going to
support both and have different behaviour depending on configuration)
so make sure the conflicting modes cannot be configured.

(It seems that cw2100 advertises 'any' and 'disconnect' as a means of
saying that's what it will always do, but that isn't really the way
this API was meant to be used nor does it actually mean anything as
'any' always implies 'disconnect' already, and the driver doesn't
change device configuration in any way depending on the settings.)

31f909a2c0 nl/mac80211: allow zero plink timeout to disable STA expiration
Both wpa_supplicant and mac80211 have and inactivity timer. By default
wpa_supplicant will be timed out in 5 minutes and mac80211's it is 30
minutes. If wpa_supplicant uses a longer timer than mac80211, it will
get unexpected disconnection by mac80211.

Using 0xffffffff instead as the configured value could solve this w/o
changing the code, but due to integer overflow in the expression used
this doesn't work. The expression is:

(current jiffies) > (frame Rx jiffies + NL80211_MESHCONF_PLINK_TIMEOUT * 250)

On 32bit system, the right side would overflow and be a very small
value if NL80211_MESHCONF_PLINK_TIMEOUT is sufficiently large,
causing unexpectedly early disconnections.

Instead allow disabling the inactivity timer to avoid this situation,
by passing the (previously invalid and useless) value 0.

Doing it per TID for MSDUs makes more sense than say only per AC
because it's symmetric - we could export per-AC statistics for all
frames (which AC we used for transmission can be determined also
for management frames) but per TID is better and usually data
frames are really the ones we care about. Also, on RX we can't

specific regdomain if a wiphy-idx is specified. The global regdomain is
meaningless for such devices.

Also add an attribute for self-managed devices, so usermode can
distinguish them as such.

b0d7aa5959 cfg80211: allow wiphy specific regdomain management
Add a new regulatory flag that allows a driver to manage regdomain
changes/updates for its own wiphy.
A self-managed wiphys only employs regulatory information obtained from
the FW and driver and does not use other cfg80211 sources like
beacon-hints, country-code IEs and hints from other devices on the same
system. Conversely, a self-managed wiphy does not share its regulatory
hints with other devices in the system. If a system contains several
devices, one or more of which are self-managed, there might be
contradictory regulatory settings between them. Usage of flag is
generally discouraged. Only use it if the FW/driver is incompatible
with non-locally originated hints.

A new API lets the driver send a complete regdomain, to be applied on
its wiphy only.

After a wiphy-specific regdomain change takes place, usermode will get
a new type of change notification. The regulatory core also takes care
enforce regulatory restrictions, in case some interfaces are on
forbidden channels.

ad30ca2c03 cfg80211: allow usermode to query wiphy specific regdom
If a wiphy-idx is specified, the kernel will return the wiphy specific
regdomain, if such exists. Otherwise return the global regdom.

When no wiphy-idx is specified, return the global regdomain as well as
all wiphy-specific regulatory domains in the system, via a new nested
list of attributes.

Add a new attribute for each wiphy-specific regdomain, for usermode to
identify it as such.

98f0334263 cfg80211: clean up beacon loss CQM event
Having it as a sub-event for RSSI thresholds is very ugly,
but luckily no userspace actually uses the events yet.

Move the event to its own function call internally and to
its own event attribute in nl80211.

ad2b26abc1 cfg80211: allow drivers to support random MAC addresses for scan
Add the necessary feature flags and a scan flag to support using
random MAC addresses for scan while unassociated.

The configuration for this supports an arbitrary MAC address
value and mask, so that any kind of configuration (e.g. fixed
OUI or full 46-bit random) can be requested. Full 46-bit random
is the default when no other configuration is passed.

Also add a small helper function to use the addr/mask correctly.

8cd4d4563e cfg80211: add wowlan net-detect support
Add a new WoWLAN API to enable net-detect as a wake up trigger.
Net-detect allows the device to scan in the background while the
host is asleep to wake up the host system when a matching network
is found.

Reuse the scheduled scan attributes to specify how the scan is
performed while suspended and the matches that will trigger a
wake event.

1057d35ede cfg80211: introduce TDLS channel switch commands
Introduce commands to initiate and cancel TDLS channel-switching. Once
TDLS channel-switching is started, the lower level driver is responsible
for continually initiating channel-switch operations and returning to
the base (AP) channel to listen for beacons from time to time.

Upon cancellation of the channel-switch all communication between the
relevant TDLS peers will continue on the base channel.
