      cfg80211: average ack rssi support for data frames · 81d5439d
      由 Balaji Pothunoori 提交于 
      Average ack rssi will be given to userspace via NL80211 interface
if firmware is capable. Userspace tool ‘iw’ can process this
information and give the output as one of the fields in
‘iw dev wlanX station dump’.

Example output :

Main use case is to measure the signal strength of a connected station
to AP. Data packet transmit rates and bandwidth used by station can vary
a lot even if the station is at fixed location, especially if the rates
used are multi stream(2stream, 3stream) rates with different bandwidth(20/40/80 Mhz).
These multi stream rates are sensitive and station can use different transmit power
for each of the rate and bandwidth combinations. RSSI measured from these RX packets
on AP will be not stable and can vary a lot with in a short time.
Whereas 802.11 ack frames from station are sent relatively at a constant
rate (6/12/24 Mbps) with constant bandwidth(20 Mhz).
So average rssi of the ack packets is good and more accurate.

      ht/vht action frames will be sent to AP from station to notify

smps mode, max nss) to userspace application. This will be useful for the
application like steering, which closely monitoring station's capability

      cfg80211/nl80211: Optional authentication offload to userspace · 40cbfa90
      由 Srinivas Dasari 提交于 
      This interface allows the host driver to offload the authentication to
user space. This is exclusively defined for host drivers that do not
define separate commands for authentication and association, but rely on
userspace SME (e.g., in wpa_supplicant for the ~WPA_DRIVER_FLAGS_SME
case) for the authentication to happen. This can be used to implement
SAE without full implementation in the kernel/firmware while still being
able to use NL80211_CMD_CONNECT with driver-based BSS selection.

Host driver sends NL80211_CMD_EXTERNAL_AUTH event to start/abort
authentication to the port on which connect is triggered and status
of authentication is further indicated by user space to host
driver through the same command response interface.

User space entities advertise this capability through the
NL80211_ATTR_EXTERNAL_AUTH_SUPP flag in the NL80211_CMD_CONNECT request.
Host drivers shall look at this capability to offload the authentication.

      nl80211: Introduce scan flags to emphasize requested scan behavior · 5037a009
      由 Sunil Dutt 提交于 
      This commit defines new scan flags (LOW_SPAN, LOW_POWER, HIGH_LATENCY)
to emphasize the requested scan behavior for the driver. These flags
are optional and are mutually exclusive. The implementation of the
respective functionality can be driver/hardware specific.

These flags can be used to control the compromise between how long
a scan takes, how much power it uses, and high accurate/complete
the scan is in finding the BSSs.

      cfg80211/nl80211: add a port authorized event · 503c1fb9
      由 Avraham Stern 提交于 
      Add an event that indicates that a connection is authorized
(i.e. the 4 way handshake was performed by the driver). This event
should be sent by the driver after sending a connect/roamed event.

This is useful for networks that require 802.1X authentication.
In cases that the driver supports 4 way handshake offload, but the
802.1X authentication is managed by user space, the driver needs to
inform user space right after the 802.11 association was completed
so user space can initialize its 802.1X state machine etc.
However, it is also possible that the AP will choose to skip the
802.1X authentication (e.g. when PMKSA caching is used) and proceed
with the 4 way handshake immediately. In this case the driver needs
to inform user space that 802.1X authentication is no longer required
(e.g. to prevent user space from disconnecting since it did not get
any EAPOLs from the AP).

This is also useful for roaming, in which case it is possible that
the driver used the Fast Transition protocol so 802.1X is not
required.

Since there will now be a dedicated notification indicating that the
connection is authorized, the authorized flag can be removed from the
roamed event. Drivers can send the new port authorized event right
after sending the roamed event to indicate the new AP is already
authorized. This therefore reserves the old PORT_AUTHORIZED attribute.

      cfg80211: Make pre-CAC results valid only for ETSI domain · b35a51c7
      由 Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan 提交于 
      DFS requirement for ETSI domain (section 4.7.1.4 in
ETSI EN 301 893 V1.8.1) is the only one which explicitly
states that once DFS channel is marked as available afer
the CAC, this channel will remain in available state even
moving to a different operating channel. But the same is
not explicitly stated in FCC DFS requirement. Also, Pre-CAC
requriements are not explicitly mentioned in FCC requirement.
Current implementation in keeping DFS channel in available
state is same as described in ETSI domain.

For non-ETSI DFS domain, this patch gives a grace period of 2 seconds
since the completion of successful CAC before moving the channel's
DFS state to 'usable' from 'available' state. The same grace period
is checked against the channel's dfs_state_entered timestamp while
deciding if a DFS channel is available for operation. There is a new
radar event, NL80211_RADAR_PRE_CAC_EXPIRED, reported when DFS channel
is moved from available to usable state after the grace period. Also
make sure the DFS channel state is reset to usable once the beaconing
operation on that channel is brought down (like stop_ap, leave_ibss
and leave_mesh) in non-ETSI domain.

      cfg80211: Accept multiple RSSI thresholds for CQM · 4a4b8169
      由 Andrew Zaborowski 提交于 
      Change the SET CQM command's RSSI threshold attribute to accept any
number of thresholds as a sorted array.  The API should be backwards
compatible so that if one s32 threshold value is passed, the old
mechanism is enabled.  The netlink event generated is the same in both
cases.

cfg80211 handles an arbitrary number of RSSI thresholds but drivers have
to provide a method (set_cqm_rssi_range_config) that configures a range
set by a high and a low value.  Drivers have to call back when the RSSI
goes out of that range and there's no additional event for each time the
range is reconfigured as there was with the current one-threshold API.

This method doesn't have a hysteresis parameter because there's no
benefit to the cfg80211 code from having the hysteresis be handled by
hardware/driver in terms of the number of wakeups.  At the same time
it would likely be less consistent between drivers if offloaded or
done in the drivers.

      The nl80211_nan_dual_band_conf enumeration doesn't make much sense.
The default value is assigned to a bit, which makes it weird if the
default bit and other bits are set at the same time.

To improve this, get rid of NL80211_NAN_BAND_DEFAULT and add a wiphy
configuration to let the drivers define which bands are supported.
This is exposed to the userspace, which then can make a decision on
which band(s) to use.  Additionally, rename all "dual_band" elements
to "bands", to make things clearer.

      cfg80211: Pass new RSSI level in CQM RSSI notification · bee427b8
      由 Andrzej Zaborowski 提交于 
      Update the drivers to pass the RSSI level as a cfg80211_cqm_rssi_notify
parameter and pass this value to userspace in a new nl80211 attribute.
This helps both userspace and also helps in the implementation of the
multiple RSSI thresholds CQM mechanism.

Note for marvell/mwifiex I pass 0 for the RSSI value because the new
RSSI value is not available to the driver at the time of the
cfg80211_cqm_rssi_notify call, but the driver queries the new value
immediately after that, so it is actually available just a moment later
if we wanted to defer caling cfg80211_cqm_rssi_notify until that moment.
Without this, the new cfg80211 code (patch 3) will call .get_station
which will send a duplicate HostCmd_CMD_RSSI_INFO command to the hardware.

      nl80211: Use different attrs for BSSID and random MAC addr in scan req · 2fa436b3
      由 Vamsi Krishna 提交于 
      NL80211_ATTR_MAC was used to set both the specific BSSID to be scanned
and the random MAC address to be used when privacy is enabled. When both
the features are enabled, both the BSSID and the local MAC address were
getting same value causing Probe Request frames to go with unintended
DA. Hence, this has been fixed by using a different NL80211_ATTR_BSSID
attribute to set the specific BSSID (which was the more recent addition
in cfg80211) for a scan.

Backwards compatibility with old userspace software is maintained to
some extent by allowing NL80211_ATTR_MAC to be used to set the specific
BSSID when scanning without enabling random MAC address use.

Scanning with random source MAC address was introduced by commit
ad2b26ab ("cfg80211: allow drivers to support random MAC addresses
for scan") and the issue was introduced with the addition of the second
user for the same attribute in commit 818965d3 ("cfg80211: Allow a
scan request for a specific BSSID").

      cfg80211: configure multicast to unicast for AP interfaces · ce0ce13a
      由 Michael Braun 提交于 
      Add the ability to configure if an AP (and associated VLANs) will
do multicast-to-unicast conversion for ARP, IPv4 and IPv6 frames
(possibly within 802.1Q). If enabled, such frames are to be sent
to each station separately, with the DA replaced by their own MAC
address rather than the group address.

Note that this may break certain expectations of the receiver,
such as the ability to drop unicast IP packets received within
multicast L2 frames, or the ability to not send ICMP destination
unreachable messages for packets received in L2 multicast (which
is required, but the receiver can't tell the difference if this
new option is enabled.)

This also doesn't implement the 802.11 DMS (directed multicast
service).
