wifi: mac80211: add support for NDP ADDBA/DELBA for S1G
S1G defines use of NDP Block Ack (BA) for aggregation, requiring negotiation
of NDP ADDBA/DELBA action frames. If the S1G recipient supports HT-immediate
block ack, the sender must send an NDP ADDBA Request indicating it expects
only NDP BlockAck frames for the agreement.
Introduce support for NDP ADDBA and DELBA exchange in mac80211. The
implementation negotiates the BA mechanism during setup based on station
capabilities and driver support (IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_NDP_BLOCKACK).
If negotiation fails due to mismatched expectations, a rejection with status code
WLAN_STATUS_REJECTED_NDP_BLOCK_ACK_SUGGESTED is returned as per IEEE 802.11-2024.
Trace sample:
IEEE 802.11 Wireless Management
Fixed parameters
Category code: Block Ack (3)
Action code: NDP ADDBA Request (0x80)
Dialog token: 0x01
Block Ack Parameters: 0x1003, A-MSDUs, Block Ack Policy
.... .... .... ...1 = A-MSDUs: Permitted in QoS Data MPDUs
.... .... .... ..1. = Block Ack Policy: Immediate Block Ack
.... .... ..00 00.. = Traffic Identifier: 0x0
0001 0000 00.. .... = Number of Buffers (1 Buffer = 2304 Bytes): 64
Block Ack Timeout: 0x0000
Block Ack Starting Sequence Control (SSC): 0x0010
.... .... .... 0000 = Fragment: 0
0000 0000 0001 .... = Starting Sequence Number: 1
IEEE 802.11 Wireless Management
Fixed parameters
Category code: Block Ack (3)
Action code: NDP ADDBA Response (0x81)
Dialog token: 0x02
Status code: BlockAck negotiation refused because, due to buffer constraints and other unspecified reasons, the recipient prefers to generate only NDP BlockAck frames (0x006d)
Block Ack Parameters: 0x1002, Block Ack Policy
.... .... .... ...0 = A-MSDUs: Not Permitted
.... .... .... ..1. = Block Ack Policy: Immediate Block Ack
