2014-02-05cfg80211: regulatory introduce maximum bandwidth calculationJanusz Dziedzic1-5/+10
In case we will get regulatory request with rule where max_bandwidth_khz is set to 0 handle this case as a special one. If max_bandwidth_khz == 0 we should calculate maximum available bandwidth base on all frequency contiguous rules. In case we need auto calculation we just have to set: country PL: DFS-ETSI (2402 - 2482 @ 40), (N/A, 20) (5170 - 5250 @ AUTO), (N/A, 20) (5250 - 5330 @ AUTO), (N/A, 20), DFS (5490 - 5710 @ 80), (N/A, 27), DFS This mean we will calculate maximum bw for rules where AUTO (N/A) were set, 160MHz (5330 - 5170) in example above. So we will get: (5170 - 5250 @ 160), (N/A, 20) (5250 - 5330 @ 160), (N/A, 20), DFS In other case: country FR: DFS-ETSI (2402 - 2482 @ 40), (N/A, 20) (5170 - 5250 @ AUTO), (N/A, 20) (5250 - 5330 @ 80), (N/A, 20), DFS (5490 - 5710 @ 80), (N/A, 27), DFS We will get 80MHz (5250 - 5170): (5170 - 5250 @ 80), (N/A, 20) (5250 - 5330 @ 80), (N/A, 20), DFS Base on this calculations we will set correct channel bandwidth flags (eg. IEEE80211_CHAN_NO_80MHZ). We don't need any changes in CRDA or internal regulatory.

2014-02-05cfg80211: consider existing DFS interfacesMichal Kazior1-3/+3
It was possible to break interface combinations in the following way: combo 1: iftype = AP, num_ifaces = 2, num_chans = 2, combo 2: iftype = AP, num_ifaces = 1, num_chans = 1, radar = HT20 With the above interface combinations it was possible to: step 1. start AP on DFS channel by matching combo 2 step 2. start AP on non-DFS channel by matching combo 1 This was possible beacuse (step 2) did not consider if other interfaces require radar detection. The patch changes how cfg80211 tracks channels - instead of channel itself now a complete chandef is stored.

2014-02-05nl80211: fix scheduled scan RSSI matchset attribute confusionJohannes Berg1-9/+61
The scheduled scan matchsets were intended to be a list of filters, with the found BSS having to pass at least one of them to be passed to the host. When the RSSI attribute was added, however, this was broken and currently wpa_supplicant adds that attribute in its own matchset; however, it doesn't intend that to mean that anything that passes the RSSI filter should be passed to the host, instead it wants it to mean that everything needs to also have higher RSSI. This is semantically problematic because we have a list of filters like [ SSID1, SSID2, SSID3, RSSI ] with no real indication which one should be OR'ed and which one AND'ed. To fix this, move the RSSI filter attribute into each matchset. As we need to stay backward compatible, treat a matchset with only the RSSI attribute as a "default RSSI filter" for all other matchsets, but only if there are other matchsets (an RSSI-only matchset by itself is still desirable.) To make driver implementation easier, keep a global min_rssi_thold for the entire request as well. The only affected driver is ath6kl. I found this when I looked into the code after Raja Mani submitted a patch fixing the n_match_sets calculation to disregard the RSSI, but that patch didn't address the semantic issue.

2014-02-05nl80211: send event when AP operation is stoppedJohannes Berg1-0/+29
There are a few cases, e.g. suspend, where an AP interface is stopped by the kernel rather than by userspace request, most commonly when suspending. To let userspace know about this, send the NL80211_CMD_STOP_AP command as an event every time an AP interface is stopped. This also happens when userspace did in fact request the AP stop, but that's not a problem. For full-MAC drivers this may need to be extended to also cover cases where the device stopped the AP operation for some reason, this a bit more complicated because then all cfg80211 state also needs to be reset; such API is not part of this patch.

2014-02-05cfg80211: Advertise maximum associated STAs in AP modeJouni Malinen1-0/+6
This allows drivers to advertise the maximum number of associated stations they support in AP mode (including P2P GO).

2014-02-05cfg80211: Allow BSS hint to be provided for connectJouni Malinen1-0/+13
This clarifies the expected driver behavior on the older NL80211_ATTR_MAC and NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FREQ attributes and adds a new set of similar attributes with _HINT postfix to enable use of a recommendation of the initial BSS to choose. This can be helpful for some drivers that can avoid an additional full scan on connection request if the information is provided to them (user space tools like wpa_supplicant already has that information available based on earlier scans). In addition, this can be used to get more expected behavior for cases where a specific BSS should be picked first based on operations like Interworking network selection or WPS. These cases were already easily addressed with drivers that leave BSS selection to user space, but there was no convenient way to do this with drivers that take care of BSS selection internally without using the NL80211_ATTR_MAC which is not really desired since it is needed for other purposes to force the association to remain with the same BSS.

The payload of the QoS Map Set element (IEEE Std 802.11-2012, 8.4.2.97) is sent to the driver through the new NL80211_ATTR_QOS_MAP attribute to configure the local behavior either on the AP (based on local configuration) or on a station (based on information received from the AP).

Register generic netlink multicast groups as an array with the family and give them contiguous group IDs. Then instead of passing the global group ID to the various functions that send messages, pass the ID relative to the family - for most families that's just 0 because the only have one group. This avoids the list_head and ID in each group, adding a new field for the mcast group ID offset to the family. At the same time, this allows us to prevent abusing groups again like the quota and dropmon code did, since we can now check that a family only uses a group it owns.
