Emmanuel Grumbach 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.

Eyal Shapira cf1e05c636 mac80211: handle width changes from opmode notification IE in beacon
An AP can send an operating channel width change in a beacon
opmode notification IE as long as there's a change in the nss as
well (See 802.11ac-2013 section 10.41).
So don't limit updating to nss only from an opmode notification IE.

Johannes Berg 5ee00dbd52 mac80211: simplify ack_skb handling
Since the cookie is assigned inside ieee80211_make_ack_skb()
now, we no longer need to return the ack_skb as the cookie
and can simplify the function's return and the callers. Also
rename it to ieee80211_attach_ack_skb() to more accurately

Johannes Berg bda95eb1d1 cfg80211: handle add_station auth/assoc flag quirks
When a new station is added to AP/GO interfaces the default behaviour
is for it to be added authenticated and associated, due to backwards
compatibility. To prevent that, the driver must be able to do that
(setting the NL80211_FEATURE_FULL_AP_CLIENT_STATE feature flag) and
userspace must set the flag mask to auth|assoc and clear the set.

Handle this quirk in the API entirely in nl80211, and always push the
full flags to the drivers. NL80211_FEATURE_FULL_AP_CLIENT_STATE is
still required for userspace to be allowed to set the mask including
those bits, but after checking that add both flags to the mask and
set in case userspace didn't set them otherwise.

This obsoletes the mac80211 code handling this difference, no other
driver is currently using these flags.

Johannes Berg c1df932c05 mac80211: fix off-channel mgmt-tx uninitialized variable usage
In the last change here, I neglected to update the cookie in one code
path: when a mgmt-tx has no real cookie sent to userspace as it doesn't
wait for a response, but is off-channel. The original code used the SKB
pointer as the cookie and always assigned the cookie to the TX SKB in
ieee80211_start_roc_work(), but my change turned this around and made
the code rely on a valid cookie being passed in.

Unfortunately, the off-channel no-wait TX path wasn't assigning one at
all, resulting in an uninitialized stack value being used. This wasn't
handed back to userspace as a cookie (since in the no-wait case there
isn't a cookie), but it was tested for non-zero to distinguish between
mgmt-tx and off-channel.

Fix this by assigning a dummy non-zero cookie unconditionally, and get
rid of a misleading comment and some dead code while at it. I'll clean
up the ACK SKB handling separately later.

Sara Sharon babc305e21 mac80211: reset CQM history upon reconfiguration
The current behavior of notifying CQM events is inconsistent:
Upon first configuration there is a cqm event with the current
status according to threshold configured, regardless of signal
stability.
When there is reconfiguration no event is sent unless there is
a significant change to the signal level according to the new
configuration.

Since the current reconfiguration behavior might cause missing
CQM events in case the current signal did not change but is on
the other side of the new threshold, fix that by resetting the
stored signal level upon reconfiguration.

Arik Nemtsov d51c2ea370 mac80211: TDLS: correctly configure SMPS state
The IEEE802.11-2012 specification is vague regarding SMPS operation during
TDLS. It does not define a clear way to transition between SMPS states.

To avoid interop issues, set SMPS to off when TDLS peers are connected.
Accomplish this by extending the definition of the AUTOMATIC state. If the
driver forces a state other than OFF, disconnect all TDLS peers.

While at it, avoid changing the SMPS state of the peer STA. We have no
way to control it, so try and behave correctly towards it.

Move the TDLS peer-teardown function to where the rest of the TDLS code
resides.

Johannes Berg db388a567f mac80211: move TX PN to public part of key struct
For drivers supporting TSO or similar features, but that still have
PN assignment in software, there's a need to have some memory to
store the current PN value. As mac80211 already stores this and it's
somewhat complicated to add a per-driver area to the key struct (due
to the dynamic sizing thereof) it makes sense to just move the TX PN
to the keyconf, i.e. the public part of the key struct.

As TKIP is more complicated and we won't able to offload it in this
way right now (fast-xmit is skipped for TKIP unless the HW does it
all, and our hardware needs MMIC calculation in software) I've not
moved that for now - it's possible but requires exposing a lot of
the internal TKIP state.

As an bonus side effect, we can remove a lot of code by assuming the
keyseq struct has a certain layout - with BUILD_BUG_ON to verify it.

This might also improve performance, since now TX and RX no longer
share a cacheline.

Johannes Berg 252ec2b3aa mac80211: don't split remain-on-channel for coalescing
Due to remain-on-channel scheduling delays, when we split an ROC
while coalescing, we'll usually get a picture like this:

existing ROC:  |------------------|
current time:              ^
new ROC:                   |------|              |-------|

If the expected response frames are then transmitted by the peer
in the hole between the two fragments of the new ROC, we miss
them and the process (e.g. ANQP query) fails.

mac80211 expects that the window to miss something is small:

existing ROC:  |------------------|
new ROC:                   |------||-------|

but that's normally not the case.

To avoid this problem, coalesce only if the new ROC's duration
is <= the remaining time on the existing one:

existing ROC:  |------------------|
new ROC:                   |-----|

and never split a new one but schedule it afterwards instead:

Michal Kazior 464daaf04c mac80211: check fast-xmit on station change
Drivers with fast-xmit (e.g. ath10k) running in
AP_VLAN setups would fail to communicate with
connected 4addr stations.

The reason was when new station associates it
first goes into master AP interface. It is not
until later that a dedicated AP_VLAN is created
for it and the station itself is moved there.
After that Tx directed at the station should use
4addr header. However fast-xmit wasn't
recalculated and 3addr header remained to be used.
This in turn caused the connected 4addr stations
to drop packets coming from the AP until some
other event would cause fast-xmit to recalculate
for that station (which could never come).

be sent like a regular tx frame without going off channel.

When power save is enabled this can cause problems, since the device
can go into power save and miss the response to the action frame
that is sent by the other AP.

Force off-channel transmission to avoid this issue in case
- HW offchannel is used,
- the user didn't forbid transmitting frames off channel
- the frame is not sent to the AP that we are associated with
  (if it is we assume the response would be bufferable)

Johannes Berg 17c18bf880 mac80211: add TX fastpath
In order to speed up mac80211's TX path, add the "fast-xmit" cache
that will cache the data frame 802.11 header and other data to be
able to build the frame more quickly. This cache is rebuilt when
external triggers imply changes, but a lot of the checks done per
packet today are simplified away to the check for the cache.

There's also a more detailed description in the code.

Johannes Berg 2c44be81f0 mac80211: set QoS capability before changing station state
In the upcoming fast-xmit patch, changing station state will
build a header cache based on the station's capabilities, and
as the QoS capability (sta.wme) impacts the header, it needs
to be set before.

Johannes Berg 527871d720 mac80211: make sta.wme indicate whether QoS is used
Indicating just the peer's capability is fairly pointless
if the local device doesn't support it. Make the variable
track both combined, and remove the 'local support' check
in the TX path.

Tom Gundersen 6bab2e19c5 cfg80211: pass name_assign_type to rdev_add_virtual_intf()
This will expose in /sys whether the ifname of a device is set by
userspace or generated by the kernel. The latter kind (wlanX, etc)
is not deterministic, so userspace needs to rename these devices
to names that are guaranteed to stay the same between reboots. The
former, however should never be renamed, so userspace needs to be
able to reliably tell the difference.

Similar functionality was introduced for the rtnetlink core in
commit 5517750f05 ("net: rtnetlink - make create_link take name_assign_type")

Johannes Berg 7c10770f99 mac80211: avoid duplicate TX path station lookup
Instead of looking up the destination station twice in the TX path
(first to build the header, and then for control processing), save
it when building the header and use it later in the TX path.

To avoid having to look up the station in the many callers, allow
those to pass %NULL which keeps the existing lookup.

Marek Puzyniak c23e31cf7b mac80211: initialize rate control earlier for tdls station
Currently when TDLS station in driver goes from authenticated
to associated state it can not use rate control parameters
because rate control is not initialized yet. Some drivers
require parameters already initialized by rate control when
entering associated state. It can be done by initializing
rate control after station transition to associated state but
before notifying driver about that.
