e5a9f8d046 mac80211: move station statistics into sub-structs
Group station statistics by where they're (mostly) updated
(TX, RX and TX-status) and group them into sub-structs of
the struct sta_info.

Also rename the variables since the grouping now makes it
obvious where they belong.

This makes it easier to identify where the statistics are
updated in the code, and thus easier to think about them.

976bd9efda mac80211: move beacon_loss_count into ifmgd
There's little point in keeping (and even sending to userspace)
the beacon_loss_count value per station, since it can only apply
to the AP on a managed-mode connection. Move the value to ifmgd,
advertise it only in managed mode, and remove it from ethtool as
it's available through better interfaces.

84b00607ae mac80211: use ktime_get_seconds
The mac80211 code uses ktime_get_ts to measure the connected time.
As this uses monotonic time, it is y2038 safe on 32-bit systems,
but we still want to deprecate the use of 'timespec' because most
other users are broken.

This changes the code to use ktime_get_seconds() instead, which
avoids the timespec structure and is slightly more efficient.

d0a77c6569 mac80211: allow writing TX PN in debugfs
For certain tests, for example replay detection, it can be useful
to be able to influence/set the PN used in outgoing packets. Make
it possible to change the TX PN in debugfs.

For now, this doesn't support TKIP since I haven't needed it, but
there's no reason it couldn't be added if necessary.

Note that this must be used very carefully: it could, for example,
be used to make "valid replays" where the PN reuse happens on a
different TID. This couldn't be done by an attacker since the TID
is protected as part of the AAD.

In case of "any" wowlan trigger, there is no reason to tear down
aggregations, as we want the device to continue working normally.

Similarly, there's no reason to tear down aggregations on resume,

However, since the reconfiguration flow is shared with HW restart,
tear down aggregations on reconfiguration when we are not resuming.

To keep things working after non-wowlan suspend, keep clearing the

35afa58862 mac80211: Copy tx'ed beacons to monitor mode
When debugging wireless powersave issues on the AP side it's quite helpful
to see our own beacons that are transmitted by the hardware/driver. However,
this is not that easy since beacons don't pass through the regular TX queues.

Preferably drivers would call ieee80211_tx_status also for tx'ed beacons
but that's not always possible. Hence, just send a copy of each beacon
generated by ieee80211_beacon_get_tim to monitor devices when they are
getting fetched by the driver.

Also add a HW flag IEEE80211_HW_BEACON_TX_STATUS that can be used by
drivers to indicate that they report TX status for beacons.

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.

8ec6d97871 mac80211: fix driver RSSI event calculations
The ifmgd->ave_beacon_signal value cannot be taken as is for
comparisons, it must be divided by since it's represented
like that for better accuracy of the EWMA calculations. This
would lead to invalid driver RSSI events. Fix the used value.

8e0d7fe07c mac80211: remove last_beacon/ave_beacon debugfs files
These file aren't really useful:
 - if per beacon data is required then you need to use
   radiotap or similar anyway, debugfs won't help much
 - average beacon signal is reported in station info in
   nl80211 and can be looked up with iw

c85fb53c4f mac80211: implement VHT support for mesh
Implement the basics required for supporting very high throughput
with mesh: include VHT information elements in beacons, probe
responses, and peering action frames, and check for compatible VHT
configurations when peering.

99e7ca44bb mac80211: allow the driver to advertise A-MSDU within A-MPDU Rx support
Drivers may be interested in receiving A-MSDU within A-MDPU.
Not all the devices may be able to do so, make it configurable.

46cad4b7a1 mac80211: remove direct probe step before authentication
The direct probe step before authentication was done mostly for
two reasons:
 1) the BSS data could be stale
 2) the beacon might not have included all IEs

The concern (1) doesn't really seem to be relevant any more as
we time out BSS information after about 30 seconds, and in fact
the original patch only did the direct probe if the data was
older than the BSS timeout to begin with. This condition got
(likely inadvertedly) removed later though.

Analysing this in more detail shows that since we mostly use
data from the association response, the only real reason for
needing the probe response was that the code validates the WMM
parameters, and those are optional in beacons. As the previous
patches removed that behaviour, we can now remove the direct
probe step entirely.

1b09b5568e mac80211: introduce per vif frame registration API
Currently the cfg80211's frame registration api receives wdev, however
mac80211 assumes per device filter configuration and ignores wdev.
Per device filtering is too wasteful, especially for multi-channel
devices.
Introduce new per vif frame registration API and use it for probe
request registrations in ieee80211_mgmt_frame_register()
Also call directly to ieee80211_configure_filter instead of using a work
since it is now allowed to sleep in ieee80211_mgmt_frame_register.

fc58c47ef1 mac80211: process skb_queue while scanning in HW
Queued frames aren't processed during scan, which results in an inability
to complete the BA session establishment until the scan ends. Since we
can't tx frames until the BA agreement setup is complete, it might result
in a very large latency during scan.
Fix this by allowing to process queued skbs while scanning in HW. This
should be ok since the devices which support hw scan should be able
to handle tx/rx while scanning.
During SW scan, mac80211 drops any txed frames besides probes and NDPs,
so it is still needed to delay processing of the queued frames till the
SW scan is done.
