performance, drivers need frag_list support as well. This avoids the
need for copying data of aggregated frames. Running without it is only

To avoid performance and packet size issues, the rate control module or

max_rc_amsdu_len in struct ieee80211_sta.

Johannes Berg 49ddf8e6e2 mac80211: add fast-rx path
The regular RX path has a lot of code, but with a few
assumptions on the hardware it's possible to reduce the
amount of code significantly. Currently the assumptions
on the driver are the following:
 * hardware/driver reordering buffer (if supporting aggregation)
 * hardware/driver decryption & PN checking (if using encryption)
 * hardware/driver did de-duplication
 * hardware/driver did A-MSDU deaggregation
 * AP_LINK_PS is used (in AP mode)
 * no client powersave handling in mac80211 (in client mode)

of which some are actually checked per packet:
 * de-duplication
 * PN checking
 * decryption
and additionally packets must
 * not be A-MSDU (have been deaggregated by driver/device)
 * be data packets
 * not be fragmented
 * be unicast
 * have RFC 1042 header

Additionally dynamically we assume:
 * no encryption or CCMP/GCMP, TKIP/WEP/other not allowed
 * station must be authorized
 * 4-addr format not enabled

Some data needed for the RX path is cached in a new per-station
"fast_rx" structure, so that we only need to look at this and
the packet, no other memory when processing packets on the fast
RX path.

After doing the above per-packet checks, the data path collapses
down to a pretty simple conversion function taking advantage of
the data cached in the small fast_rx struct.

This should speed up the RX processing, and will make it easier
to reason about parallelizing RX (for which statistics will need
to be per-CPU still.)

Johannes Berg 960d01acf6 cfg80211: add WMM traffic stream API
Add nl80211 and driver API to validate, add and delete traffic
streams with appropriate settings.

The API calls for userspace doing the action frame handshake
with the peer, and then allows only to set up the parameters
in the driver. To avoid setting up a session only to tear it
down again, the validate API is provided, but the real usage
later can still fail so userspace must be prepared for that.

Steinar H. Gunderson c8d6591752 mac80211: support DTPC IE (from Cisco Client eXtensions)
Linux already supports 802.11h, where the access point can tell the
client to reduce its transmission power. However, 802.11h is only
defined for 5 GHz, where the need for this is much smaller than on
2.4 GHz.

Cisco has their own solution, called DTPC (Dynamic Transmit Power
Control). Cisco APs on a controller sometimes but not always send
802.11h; they always send DTPC, even on 2.4 GHz. This patch adds support
for parsing and honoring the DTPC IE in addition to the 802.11h
element (they do not always contain the same limits, so both must
be honored); the format is not documented, but very simple.

Tested (on top of wireless.git and on 3.16.1) against a Cisco Aironet
1142 joined to a Cisco 2504 WLC, by setting various transmit power
levels for the given access points and observing the results.
The Wireshark 802.11 dissector agrees with the interpretation of the
element, except for negative numbers, which seem to never happen
anyway.

Johannes Berg 2740f0cf8e cfg80211: add Intel Mobile Communications copyright
Our legal structure changed at some point (see wikipedia), but
we forgot to immediately switch over to the new copyright
notice.

For files that we have modified in the time since the change,
add the proper copyright notice now.
