Johannes Berg 7528ec5776 mac80211: add function to create data frame template including key
For some TDLS channel switch implementations data frames need to be
sent by the firmware based on a template. This template should be
created by mac80211, and thus needs to properly be built from an
802.3 frame into an 802.11 frame. In addition, the device will need
the key information so the select_key handler needs to be run.
However, the driver/device will be responsible for all of the crypto
encapsulation, as the sequence numbers etc. cannot be built by the
host anyway in this case since it's a template to be used multiple
times.

Johannes Berg 73c4e195e6 mac80211: move skb info band assignment out
Instead of passing the band as a parameter to ieee80211_xmit()
and ieee80211_tx(), move it outside of the two functions while
making sure info->band is set up before calling them.

This removes the parameter and simplifies the follow commit.

Johannes Berg 8ed2874715 mac80211: handle RIC data element in reassociation request
When the RIC data element (RDE) is included in the IEs coming
from userspace for an association request, its handling is
currently broken as any IEs that are contained within it would
be split off from it and inserted again after all the IEs that
mac80211 generates (e.g. HT, VHT.)

To fix this, treat the RIC element specially, and stop after
it only when we find something that doesn't actually belong to
it. This assumes userspace is actually correctly building it,
directly after the fast BSS transition IE and before all the
others like extended capabilities.

This leaves as a potential problem the case where userspace is
building the following IEs:

[RDE] [vendor resource description] [vendor non-resource IE]

In this case, we'd erroneously consider all three IEs to be
part of the RIC data together, and not split them between the
two vendor IEs. Unfortunately, it isn't easily possible to
distinguish vendor IEs, so this isn't easy to fix. Luckily,
this case is rare as normally wpa_supplicant will include an
extended capabilities IE in the IEs, and that certainly will
break the two vendor IEs apart correctly.

Rostislav Lisovy 239281f803 mac80211: 802.11p OCB mode support
This patch adds 802.11p OCB (Outside the Context of a BSS) mode
support.

When communicating in OCB mode a mandatory wildcard BSSID
(48 '1' bits) is used.

The EDCA parameters handling function was changed to support
802.11p specific values.

The insertion of a newly discovered STAs is done in the similar way
as in the IBSS mode -- through the deferred insertion.

The OCB mode uses a periodic 'housekeeping task' for expiration of
disconnected STAs (in the similar manner as in the MESH mode).

New Kconfig option for verbose OCB debugging outputs is added.

Johannes Berg 02219b3abc mac80211: add WMM admission control support
Use the currently existing APIs between mac80211 and the low
level driver to implement WMM admission control.

The low level driver needs to report the media time used by
each transmitted packet in ieee80211_tx_status. Based on that
information, mac80211 will modify the QoS parameters of the
admission controlled Access Category when the limit is
reached. Once the original QoS parameters can be restored,
mac80211 will do so.

One issue with this approach is that management frames will
also erroneously be downgraded, but the upside is that the
implementation is simple. In the future, it can be extended
to driver- or device-based implementations that are better.

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.

When starting an offloaded BA session it is
unknown what starting sequence number should be
used. Using last_seq worked in most cases except
after hw restart.

When hw restart is requested last_seq is
(rightfully so) kept unmodified. This ended up
with BA sessions being restarted with an aribtrary
BA window values resulting in dropped frames until
sequence numbers caught up.

Instead of last_seq pick seqno of a first Rxed

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.

Michal Kazior 59af6928d2 mac80211: fix CSA tx queue stopping
It was possible for tx queues to be stuck stopped
if AP CSA finalization failed. In that case
neither stop_ap nor do_stop woke the queues up.
This means it was impossible to perform tx at all
until driver was reloaded or a successful CSA was
performed later.

It was possible to solve this in a simpler manner
however this is more robust and future proof
(having multi-vif CSA in mind).

New sdata->csa_block_tx is introduced to keep
track of which interfaces requested tx to be
blocked for CSA. This is required because mac80211
stops all tx queues for that purpose. This means
queues must be awoken only when last tx-blocking
CSA interface is finished.

It is still possible to have tx queues stopped
after CSA failure but as soon as offending
interfaces are stopped from userspace (stop_ap or
ifdown) tx queues are woken up properly.

Michal Kazior c0166da9fe mac80211: compute chanctx refcount on-the-fly
It doesn't make much sense to store refcount in
the chanctx structure. One still needs to hold
chanctx_mtx to get the value safely. Besides,
refcount isn't on performance critical paths.

This will make implementing chanctx reservation
refcounting a little easier.

Michal Kazior e3afb92022 mac80211: track reserved vifs in chanctx
This can be useful. Provides a more straghtforward
way to iterate over interfaces taking part in
chanctx reservation and allows tracking chanctx
usage explicitly.

The structure is protected by local->chanctx_mtx.

Michal Kazior 093324816b mac80211: add support for radar detection for reservations
Initial chanctx reservation code wasn't aware of
radar detection requirements. This is necessary
for chanctx reservations to be used for channel
switching in the future.

Luciano Coelho 11335a550b mac80211: implement chanctx reservation
In order to support channel switch with multiple vifs and multiple
contexts, we implement a concept of channel context reservation.  This
allows us to reserve a channel context to be used later.

The reservation functionality is not tied directly to channel switch
and may be used in other situations (eg. reserving a channel context
during IBSS join).

We first check if an existing compatible context exists and if it
does, we reserve it.  If there is no compatible context we create a
new one and reserve it.

Additionally, split ieee80211_vif_copy_chanctx_to_vlans() so we can
call it while already holding the chanctx mutex.

Michal Kazior 4e141dad26 mac80211: protect AP VLAN list with local->mtx
It was impossible to change chanctx of master AP
for AP VLANs because the copy function requires
RTNL which can't be simply taken in mac80211 code
due to possible deadlocks.

This is required for future chanctx reservation
that re-bind vifs to new chanctx. This requires
safe AP VLAN iteration without RTNL.

Now VLANs can be iterated while holding either
RTNL or local->mtx because the list is modified
while holding both of these locks.

Luciano Coelho 73de86a389 cfg80211/mac80211: move interface counting for combination check to mac80211
Move the counting part of the interface combination check from
cfg80211 to mac80211.

This is needed to simplify locking when the driver has to perform a
combination check by itself (eg. with channel-switch).
