When we disconnect from the AP, drivers call cfg80211_disconnect().
This doesn't know whether the disconnection was initiated locally
or by the AP though, which can cause problems with the supplicant,
for example with WPS. This issue obviously doesn't show up with any
mac80211 based driver since mac80211 doesn't call this function.
Fix this by requiring drivers to indicate whether the disconnect is
locally generated or not. I've tried to update the drivers, but may
not have gotten the values correct, and some drivers may currently
not be able to report correct values. In case of doubt I left it at
false, which is the current behaviour.
For libertas, make adjustments as indicated by Dan Williams.

If a P2P GO was allowed on a channel because of the GO concurrent
relaxation, i.e., another station interface was associated to an AP on
the same channel or the same UNII band, and the station interface
disconnected from the AP, allow the following use cases unless the
channel is marked as indoor only and the device is not operating in an
indoor environment:
1. Allow the P2P GO to stay on its current channel. The rationale behind
this is that if the channel or UNII band were allowed by the AP they
could still be used to continue the P2P GO operation, and avoid connection
breakage.
2. Allow another P2P GO to start on the same channel or another channel
that is in the same UNII band as the previous instantiated P2P GO.

wpa_supplicant or authsae handles the mesh peering in user
space, but the plink state is still managed in kernel space.
Currently, there is no implementation by wpa_supplicant or
authsae to block the plink state after it is set to ESTAB.
By applying this patch, we can use the "iw mesh0 station set
<MAC address> plink_action block" to block the peer mesh STA.
This is useful for experimenting purposes.

This will expose in /sys whether the ifname of a device is set by
userspace or generated by the kernel. The latter kind (wlanX, etc)
is not deterministic, so userspace needs to rename these devices
to names that are guaranteed to stay the same between reboots. The
former, however should never be renamed, so userspace needs to be
able to reliably tell the difference.
Similar functionality was introduced for the rtnetlink core in
commit 5517750f058e ("net: rtnetlink - make create_link take name_assign_type")

Seems Broadcom TDLS peers (Nexus 5, Xperia Z3) refuse to allow TDLS
connection when channel-switching is supported but the regulatory
classes IE is missing from the setup request.
Add a chandef to reg-class translation function to cfg80211 and use it
to add the required IE during setup. For now add only the current
regulatory class as supported - it is enough to resolve the

Conflicts:

net/core/sysctl_net_core.c
net/ipv4/inet_diag.c
The be_main.c conflict resolution was really tricky. The conflict
hunks generated by GIT were very unhelpful, to say the least. It
split functions in half and moved them around, when the real actual
conflict only existed solely inside of one function, that being
be_map_pci_bars().
So instead, to resolve this, I checked out be_main.c from the top
of net-next, then I applied the be_main.c changes from 'net' since
the last time I merged. And this worked beautifully.
The inet_diag.c and sysctl_net_core.c conflicts were simple

this point and don't pass it down to the drivers which might

Previously, the indoor setting configuration assumed that as
long as a station interface is connected, the indoor environment
setting does not change. However, this assumption is problematic
as:
- It is possible that a station interface is connected to a mobile
AP, e.g., softAP or a P2P GO, where it is possible that both the
station and the mobile AP move out of the indoor environment making
the indoor setting invalid. In such a case, user space has no way to
invalidate the setting.
- A station interface disconnection does not necessarily imply that
the device is no longer operating in an indoor environment, e.g.,
it is possible that the station interface is roaming but is still
stays indoor.
To handle the above, extend the indoor configuration API to allow
user space to indicate a change of indoor settings, and allow it to
indicate weather it controls the indoor setting, such that:
1. If the user space process explicitly indicates that it is going
to control the indoor setting, do not clear the indoor setting
internally, unless the socket is released. The user space process
should use the NL80211_ATTR_SOCKET_OWNER attribute in the command
to state that it is going to control the indoor setting.
2. Reset the indoor setting when restoring the regulatory settings in
case it is not owned by a user space process.
Based on the above, a user space tool that continuously monitors the
indoor settings, i.e., tracking power setting, location etc., can
indicate environment changes to the regulatory core.
It should be noted that currently user space is the only provided mechanism
used to hint to the regulatory core over the indoor/outdoor environment --
while the country IEs do have an environment setting this has been completely
ignored by the regulatory core by design for a while now since country IEs
typically can contain bogus data.

If the device supports waking up on 'any' signal - i.e. it continues
operating as usual and wakes up the host on pretty much anything that
happens, then it makes no sense to also configure the more restricted
WoWLAN mode where the device operates more autonomously but also in a
more restricted fashion.
Currently only cw2100 supports both 'any' and other triggers, but it
seems to be broken as it doesn't configure anything to the device, so
we can't currently get into a situation where both even can correctly
be configured. This is about to change (Intel devices are going to
support both and have different behaviour depending on configuration)
so make sure the conflicting modes cannot be configured.
(It seems that cw2100 advertises 'any' and 'disconnect' as a means of
saying that's what it will always do, but that isn't really the way
this API was meant to be used nor does it actually mean anything as
'any' always implies 'disconnect' already, and the driver doesn't
change device configuration in any way depending on the settings.)

802.11ad adds new a network type (PBSS) and changes the capability
field interpretation for the DMG (60G) band.
The same 2 bits that were interpreted as "ESS" and "IBSS" before are
re-used as a 2-bit field with 3 valid values (and 1 reserved). Valid
values are: "IBSS", "PBSS" (new) and "AP".
In order to get the BSS struct for the new PBSS networks, change the
cfg80211_get_bss() function to take a new enum ieee80211_bss_type
argument with the valid network types, as "capa_mask" and "capa_val"
no longer work correctly (the search must be band-aware now.)
The remaining bits in "capa_mask" and "capa_val" are used only for
privacy matching so replace those two with a privacy enum as well.

When using the wext compatibility code in cfg80211, part of the IEs

of the BSS but not large enough for all of the IEs. This can cause

Both wpa_supplicant and mac80211 have and inactivity timer. By default
wpa_supplicant will be timed out in 5 minutes and mac80211's it is 30
minutes. If wpa_supplicant uses a longer timer than mac80211, it will
get unexpected disconnection by mac80211.
Using 0xffffffff instead as the configured value could solve this w/o
changing the code, but due to integer overflow in the expression used
this doesn't work. The expression is:
(current jiffies) > (frame Rx jiffies + NL80211_MESHCONF_PLINK_TIMEOUT * 250)
On 32bit system, the right side would overflow and be a very small
value if NL80211_MESHCONF_PLINK_TIMEOUT is sufficiently large,
causing unexpectedly early disconnections.
Instead allow disabling the inactivity timer to avoid this situation,
by passing the (previously invalid and useless) value 0.

When a fully converted cfg80211 driver needs cfg80211-wext for
userspace API purposes, the symbols need not be exported. When
other drivers (orinoco/hermes or ipw2200) are enabled, they do
need the symbols exported as they use them directly.
Make those drivers select a new CFG80211_WEXT_EXPORT Kconfig

only if requested - this saves about 1/2k due to the size of

smatch warns that we once checked request->ssids in two functions
and then unconditionally used it later again.
This is actually fine, because the code has a relationship between
attrs[NL80211_ATTR_SCAN_SSIDS], n_ssids and request->ssids, but
smatch isn't smart enough to realize that.
Suppress the warnings by always checking just n_ssids - that way
smatch won't know that request->ssids could be NULL, and since it
is only NULL when n_ssids is 0 we still check everything correctly.

Contrary to common expectations for an "int" return, these functions
return only a positive value -- if used correctly they cannot even
return 0 because the message header will necessarily be in the skb.
This makes the very common pattern of
if (genlmsg_end(...) < 0) { ... }
be a whole bunch of dead code. Many places also simply do
return nlmsg_end(...);
and the caller is expected to deal with it.
This also commonly (at least for me) causes errors, because it is very
common to write
if (my_function(...))
/* error condition */
and if my_function() does "return nlmsg_end()" this is of course wrong.
Additionally, there's not a single place in the kernel that actually
needs the message length returned, and if anyone needs it later then
it'll be very easy to just use skb->len there.
Remove this, and make the functions void. This removes a bunch of dead
code as described above. The patch adds lines because I did
- return nlmsg_end(...);
+ nlmsg_end(...);
+ return 0;
I could have preserved all the function's return values by returning
skb->len, but instead I've audited all the places calling the affected
functions and found that none cared. A few places actually compared
the return value with <= 0 in dump functionality, but that could just
be changed to < 0 with no change in behaviour, so I opted for the more
efficient version.
One instance of the error I've made numerous times now is also present
in net/phonet/pn_netlink.c in the route_dumpit() function - it didn't
check for <0 or <=0 and thus broke out of the loop every single time.
I've preserved this since it will (I think) have caused the messages to
userspace to be formatted differently with just a single message for
every SKB returned to userspace. It's possible that this isn't needed
for the tools that actually use this, but I don't even know what they
are so couldn't test that changing this behaviour would be acceptable.

The return value from nl80211_send_station() is the length of the
skb, or a negative error, so abort sending the message only when
the return value was negative.
This fixes the ibss_rsn wpa_supplicant test case.
