Felix Fietkau 6e0456b545 mac80211: add A-MSDU tx support
Requires software tx queueing and fast-xmit support. For good
performance, drivers need frag_list support as well. This avoids the
need for copying data of aggregated frames. Running without it is only
supported for debugging purposes.

To avoid performance and packet size issues, the rate control module or
driver needs to limit the maximum A-MSDU size by setting
max_rc_amsdu_len in struct ieee80211_sta.

If the driver advertises the new HW flag USE_RSS, make the

Sara Sharon f59374eb42 mac80211: synchronize driver rx queues before removing a station
Some devices, like iwlwifi, have RSS queues. This may cause a
situation where a disassociation is handled in control path and
results in station removal while there are prior RX frames
that were still not processed in other queues. When they will
be processed the station will be gone, and the frames will be
dropped.
Add a synchronization interface to avoid that. When driver returns
from the synchronization mac80211 may remove the station.

Eliad Peller f8079d43cf mac80211: move TKIP TX IVs to public part of key struct
Some drivers/devices might want to set the IVs by
themselves (and still let mac80211 generate MMIC).

Specifically, this is needed when the device does
offloading at certain times, and the driver has
to make sure that the IVs of new tx frames (from
the host) are synchronized with IVs that were
potentially used during the offloading.

Similarly to CCMP, move the TX IVs of TKIP keys to the
public part of the key struct, and export a function
to add the IV right into the crypto header.

The public tx_pn field is defined as atomic64, so define
TKIP_PN_TO_IV16/32 helper macros to convert it to iv16/32
when needed.

Since the iv32 used for the p1k cache is taken
directly from the frame, we can safely remove
iv16/32 from being protected by tkip.txlock.

Sara Sharon 06470f7468 mac80211: add API to allow filtering frames in BA sessions
If any frames are dropped that are part of a BA session, the reorder
buffer will "indefinitely" (until the timeout) wait for them to come
in (or a BAR moving the window) and won't release frames after them.
This means it isn't possible to filter frames within a BA session in
firmware.

Introduce an API function that allows such filtering. Calling this
function will move the BA window forward to the new SSN, and allows
marking frames after the SSN as having been filtered, so any future
reordering activity will release frames while skipping the holes.

Sven Eckelmann dfdfc2beb0 mac80211: Parse legacy and HT rate in injected frames
Drivers/devices without their own rate control algorithm can get the
information what rates they should use from either the radiotap header of
injected frames or from the rate control algorithm. But the parsing of the
legacy rate information from the radiotap header was removed in commit
e6a9854b05 ("mac80211/drivers: rewrite the rate control API").

The removal of this feature heavily reduced the usefulness of frame
injection when wanting to simulate specific transmission behavior. Having
rate parsing together with MCS rates and retry support allows a fine
grained selection of the tx behavior of injected frames for these kind of
tests.

Helmut Schaa 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.

Avri Altman 22f66895e6 mac80211: protect non-HT BSS when HT TDLS traffic exists
HT TDLS traffic should be protected in a non-HT BSS to avoid
collisions. Therefore, when TDLS peers join/leave, check if
protection is (now) needed and set the ht_operation_mode of
the virtual interface according to the HT capabilities of the
TDLS peer(s).

This works because a non-HT BSS connection never sets (or
otherwise uses) the ht_operation_mode; it just means that
drivers must be aware that this field applies to all HT
traffic for this virtual interface, not just the traffic
within the BSS. Document that.

Allow a device to specify support for the TDLS wider-bandwidth feature.
Indicate this support during TDLS setup in the ext-capab IE and set an

This feature gives TDLS peers the ability to use a wider channel than

on a 20MHz channel can extend the channel to 80MHz, if regulatory
considerations allow it.

When there are multiple RX queues, the PN checks in mac80211 cannot be

Allow the driver to report that the PN has been checked, drivers that

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.

Some drivers unfortunately cannot support software crypto, but

This has the issue that if the hardware enabling fails for some
reason, the software fallback is used, which won't work. This
clearly isn't desirable, the error should be reported and the
key setting refused.

Support this in mac80211 by allowing drivers to set a new HW
flag IEEE80211_HW_SW_CRYPTO_CONTROL, in which case mac80211 will
only allow software fallback if the set_key() method returns 1.
The driver will also need to advertise supported cipher suites
so that mac80211 doesn't advertise any (future) software ciphers
that the driver can't actually do.

holds true for all drivers. As reported by Christopher Chavez and
researched by Christian Lamparter and Larry Finger, this isn't a valid
assumption for p54 and cw1200.

Johannes Berg 848955ccf0 mac80211: move U-APSD enablement to vif flags
In order to let drivers have more dynamic U-APSD support,
move the enablement flag to the virtual interface driver
flags. This lets drivers not only set it up differently
for different interfaces, but also enable/disable on the
fly if needed.

Sujith Manoharan 5cf16616e1 mac80211: Fix accounting of multicast frames
Since multicast frames are marked as no-ack, using
IEEE80211_TX_STAT_ACK to check if they have been
successfully transmitted by the driver is incorrect
since a driver can choose to ignore transmission status
for no-ack frames. This results in incorrect accounting
for such frames.

To fix this issue, this patch introduces a new flag
that can be used by drivers to indicate error-free
transmission of no-ack frames.

Liad Kaufman b6da911b3c mac80211: synchronously reserve TID per station
In TDLS (e.g., TDLS off-channel) there is a requirement for
some drivers to supply an unused TID between the AP and the
device to the FW, to allow sending PTI requests and to allow
the FW to aggregate on a specific TID for better throughput.

To ensure that the allocated TID is indeed unused, this patch
introduces an API for blocking the driver from TXing on that
TID.

Implement the cfg80211 TDLS channel switch ops and introduce new mac80211
ones for low-level drivers.
Verify low-level driver support for the new ops when using the relevant

passing the command down.

Add a new STA flag to track the off-channel state with the TDLS peer and
make sure to cancel the channel-switch if the peer STA is unexpectedly
removed.

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.
