Johannes Berg 0a44dfc070 wifi: mac80211: simplify non-chanctx drivers
There are still surprisingly many non-chanctx drivers, but in
mac80211 that code is a bit awkward. Simplify this by having
those drivers assign 'emulated' ops, so that the mac80211 code
can be more unified between non-chanctx/chanctx drivers. This
cuts the number of places caring about it by about 15, which
are scattered across - now they're fewer and no longer in the
channel context handling.

Emmanuel Grumbach 9ad08fb1bc wifi: mac80211: fix a expired vs. cancel race in roc
When the remain on channel is removed at the time it should
have expired, we have a race: the driver could be handling
the flow of the expiration while mac80211 is cancelling
that very same remain on channel request.

This wouldn't be problem in itself, but since mac80211
can send the next request to the driver in the cancellation
flow, we can get to the following situation:

           CPU0                             CPU1
expiration of roc in driver
ieee80211_remain_on_channel_expired()
                                         Cancellation of the roc
schedules a worker (hw_roc_done)
                                         Add next roc
hw_roc_done_wk runs and ends
the second roc prematurely.

Since, by design, there is only one single request sent to the
driver at a time, we can safely assume that after the cancel()
request returns from the driver, we should not handle any worker
that handles the expiration of the request.

Cancel the hw_roc_done worker after the cancellation to make
sure we start the next one with a clean slate.

Ilan Peer 563fe446ef wifi: mac80211: Do not force off-channel for management Tx with MLO
When user space transmits a management frame it is expected to use
the MLD addresses if the connection is an MLD one. Thus, in case
the management Tx is using the MLD address and no channel is configured
off-channel should not be used (as one of the active links would be used).

Johannes Berg be0df01dae wifi: mac80211: reduce iflist_mtx
We now hold the wiphy mutex everywhere that we use or
needed the iflist_mtx, so we don't need this mutex any
more in mac80211. However, drivers may also iterate,
and in some cases (e.g. mt76) do so from high-priority
contexts. Thus, keep the mutex around but remove its
usage in mac80211 apart from those driver-visible parts
that are still needed.

Most of this change was done automatically with spatch,
with the parts that are still needed as described above
reverted manually.

 * selecting the link to transmit to a station by link ID,

 * selecting the link by frequency, similarly

Loic Poulain dba0491f00 mac80211: Inform AP when returning operating channel
Because we can miss AP wakeup (beacon) while scanning other channels,
it's better go into wakeup state and inform the AP of that upon
returning to the operating channel, rather than staying asleep and
waiting for the next TIM indicating traffic for us.

This saves precious time, especially when we only have 200ms inter-
scan period for monitoring the active connection.

Thomas Pedersen b6011960f3 mac80211: handle channel frequency offset
cfg80211_chan_def and ieee80211_channel recently gained a
frequency offset component. Handle this where it makes
sense (potentially required by S1G channels).

For IBSS, TDLS, CSA, and ROC we return -EOPNOTSUPP if a
channel with frequency offset is passed, since they may or
may not work. Once someone tests and verifies these
commands work on thos types of channels, we can remove
that error.

join_ocb and join_mesh look harmless because they use a
simple ieee80211_vif_use_channel(), which is using an
already verified channel, so we let those through.

Avraham Stern 6e46d8ce89 mac80211: flush hw_roc_start work before cancelling the ROC
When HW ROC is supported it is possible that after the HW notified
that the ROC has started, the ROC was cancelled and another ROC was
added while the hw_roc_start worker is waiting on the mutex (since
cancelling the ROC and adding another one also holds the same mutex).
As a result, the hw_roc_start worker will continue to run after the
new ROC is added but before it is actually started by the HW.
This may result in notifying userspace that the ROC has started before
it actually does, or in case of management tx ROC, in an attempt to
tx while not on the right channel.

In addition, when the driver will notify mac80211 that the second ROC
has started, mac80211 will warn that this ROC has already been
notified.

Fix this by flushing the hw_roc_start work before cancelling an ROC.

Michael Braun 1d4de2e222 mac80211: fix CMD_FRAME for AP_VLAN
When using IEEE 802.11r FT OVER-DS roaming with AP_VLAN, hostapd needs to
send out a frame using CMD_FRAME for a station assigned to an AP_VLAN
interface.

Right now, the userspace needs to give the exact AP_VLAN interface index
for CMD_FRAME; hostapd does not do this. Additionally, userspace cannot
use GET_STATION to query the AP_VLAN ifidx, as while GET_STATION finds
stations assigned to AP_VLAN even if the AP iface is queried, it does not
return AP_VLAN ifidx (it returns the queried one).

This breaks IEEE 802.11r over_ds with vlans, as the reply frame does not
get out. This patch fixes this by using get_sta_bss for CMD_FRAME.

Johannes Berg e9db455787 mac80211: recalculate SW ROC only when needed
The current (new) code recalculates the new work timeout
for software remain-on-channel whenever any item started.
In two of the callers of ieee80211_handle_roc_started(),
this is completely pointless since they're for hardware
and will skip the recalculation entirely; it's necessary
only in the case of having just added a new item to the
list, as in the last remaining case the recalculation had
just been done.

This last case, however, is also problematic - if one of

Ilan Peer 1b894521e6 mac80211: handle HW ROC expired properly
In case of HW ROC, when the driver reports that the ROC expired,
it is not sufficient to purge the ROCs based on the remaining
time, as it possible that the device finished the ROC session
before the actual requested duration.

To handle such cases, in case of ROC expired notification from
the driver, complete all the ROCs which are marked with hw_begun,
regardless of the remaining duration.

Johannes Berg 7d37fcd409 mac80211: reject zero cookie in mgmt-tx/roc cancel
When cancelling, you can cancel "any" (first in list) mgmt-tx
or remain-on-channel operation by using the value 0 for the
cookie along with the *opposite* operation, i.e.
 * cancel the first mgmt-tx by cancelling roc with 0 cookie
 * cancel the first roc by cancelling mgmt-tx with 0 cookie

This isn't really that bad since userspace should only pass
cookies that we gave it, but could lead to hard-to-debug
issues so better prevent it and reject zero values since we
never hand those out.

Johannes Berg aaa016ccd5 mac80211: rewrite remain-on-channel logic
Jouni found a bug in the remain-on-channel logic: when a short item
is queued, a long item is combined with it extending the original
one, and then the long item is deleted, the timeout doesn't go back
to the short one, and the short item ends up taking a long time. In
this case, this showed as blocking scan when running two test cases
back to back - the scan from the second was delayed even though all
the remain-on-channel items should long have been gone.

Fixing this with the current data structures turns out to be a bit
complicated, we just remove the long item from the dependents list
right now and don't recalculate the timeouts.

There's a somewhat similar bug where we delete the short item and
all the dependents go with it; to fix this we'd have to move them
from the dependents to the real list.

Instead of trying to do that, rewrite the code to not have all this
complexity in the data structures: use a single list and allow more
than one entry in it being marked as started. This makes the code a
bit more complex, the worker needs to understand that it might need
to just remove one of the started items, while keeping the device
off-channel, but that's not more complicated than the nested data
structures.

This then fixes both issues described, and makes it easier to also
limit the overall off-channel time when combining.

TODO: as before, with hardware remain-on-channel, deleting an item
after combining results in cancelling them all - we can keep track
of the time elapsed and only cancel after that to fix this.

Johannes Berg 30686bf7f5 mac80211: convert HW flags to unsigned long bitmap
As we're running out of hardware capability flags pretty quickly,
convert them to use the regular test_bit() style unsigned long
bitmaps.

This introduces a number of helper functions/macros to set and to
test the bits, along with new debugfs code.

The occurrences of an explicit __clear_bit() are intentional, the
drivers were never supposed to change their supported bits on the
fly. We should investigate changing this to be a per-frame flag.

Emmanuel Grumbach 3b24f4c653 mac80211: let flush() drop packets when possible
When roaming / suspending, it makes no sense to wait until
the transmit queues of the device are empty. In extreme
condition they can be starved (VO saturating the air), but
even in regular cases, it is pointless to delay the roaming
because the low level driver is trying to send packets to
an AP which is far away. We'd rather drop these packets and
let TCP retransmit if needed. This will allow to speed up
the roaming.

For suspend, the explanation is even more trivial.

Luciano Coelho 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.

Johannes Berg b4b177a555 mac80211: fix on-channel remain-on-channel
Jouni reported that if a remain-on-channel was active on the
same channel as the current operating channel, then the ROC
would start, but any frames transmitted using mgmt-tx on the
same channel would get delayed until after the ROC.

The reason for this is that the ROC starts, but doesn't have
any handling for "remain on the same channel", so it stops
the interface queues. The later mgmt-tx then puts the frame
on the interface queues (since it's on the current operating
channel) and thus they get delayed until after the ROC.

To fix this, add some logic to handle remaining on the same
channel specially and not stop the queues etc. in this case.
This not only fixes the bug but also improves behaviour in
this case as data frames etc. can continue to flow.

Johannes Berg 115b943a6e mac80211: fix software remain-on-channel implementation
Jouni reported that when doing off-channel transmissions mixed
with on-channel transmissions, the on-channel ones ended up on
the off-channel in some cases.

The reason for that is that during the refactoring of the off-
channel code, I lost the part that stopped all activity and as
a consequence the on-channel frames (including data frames)
were no longer queued but would be transmitted on the temporary
channel.

Fix this by simply restoring the lost activity stop call.

Jouni Malinen 22c4ceed01 mac80211: Run deferred scan if last roc_list item is not started
mac80211 scan processing could get stuck if roc work for pending, but
not started when a scan request was deferred due to such roc item.
Normally the deferred scan would be started from
ieee80211_start_next_roc(), but ieee80211_sw_roc_work() calls that only
if the finished ROC was started. Fix this by calling
ieee80211_run_deferred_scan() in the case the last ROC was not actually
started.

This issue was hit relatively easily in P2P find operations where Listen
state (remain-on-channel) and Search state (scan) are repeated in a
loop.
