On 2.4Ghz band, the channels overlap since the delta between different channels is 5Mhz while the width of the receiver is 20Mhz (at least). This means that we can hear beacons or probe responses from adjacent channels. These frames will have a significant lower RSSI which will feed all kinds of logic with inaccurate data. An obvious example is the roaming algorithm that will think our AP is getting weak and will try to move to another AP. In order to avoid this, update the signal only if the frame has been heard on the same channel as the one advertised by the AP in its DS / HT IEs. We refrain from updating the values only if the AP is already in the BSS list so that we will still have a valid (but inaccurate) value if the AP was heard on an adjacent channel only. To achieve this, stop taking the channel from DS / HT IEs in mac80211. The DS / HT IEs is taken into account to discard the frame if it was received on a disabled channel. This can happen due to the same phenomenon: the frame is sent on channel 12, but heard on channel 11 while channel 12 can be disabled on certain devices. Since this check is done in cfg80211, stop even checking this in mac80211.

Since Stanislaw's patch removing the quiescing code, mac80211 had a race regarding suspend vs. authentication: as cfg80211 doesn't track authentication attempts, it can't abort them. Therefore the attempts may be kept running while suspending, which can lead to all kinds of issues, in at least some cases causing an error in iwlmvm firmware. Fix this by aborting the authentication attempt when suspending.

The MLME code in mac80211 must track whether or not the AP changed bandwidth, but if there's no change while tracking it shouldn't do anything, otherwise regulatory updates can make it impossible to connect to certain APs if the regulatory database doesn't match the information from the AP. See the precise scenario described in the code. This still leaves some possible problems with CSA or if the AP actually changed bandwidth, but those cases are less common and won't completely prevent using it.

The scan code creates an iflist_mtx -> mtx locking dependency, and a few other places, notably radar detection, were creating the opposite dependency, causing lockdep to complain. As scan and radar detection are mutually exclusive, the deadlock can't really happen in practice, but it's still bad form. A similar issue exists in the monitor mode code, but this is only used by channel-context drivers right now and those have to have hardware scan, so that also can't happen. Still, fix these issues by making some of the channel context code require the mtx to be held rather than acquiring it, thus allowing the monitor/radar callers to keep the iflist_mtx->mtx lock ordering. While at it, also fix access to the local->scanning variable in the radar code, and document that radar_detect_enabled is now properly protected by the mtx. All this would now introduce an ABBA deadlock between the DFS work cancelling and local->mtx, so change the locking there a bit to not need to use cancel_delayed_work_sync() but be able to just use cancel_delayed_work(). The work is also safely stopped/removed when the interface is stopped, so no extra changes are needed.

When the driver requests to move to STATIC or DYNAMIC SMPS, we send an action frame to each associated station and reconfigure the channel context / driver. Of course, non-MIMO stations are ignored. The beacon isn't updated. The association response will include the original capabilities. Stations that associate while in non-OFF SMPS mode will get an action frame right after association to inform them about our current state. Note that we wait until the end of the EAPOL. Sending an action frame before the EAPOL is finished can be an issue for a few clients. Clients aren't likely to send EAPOL frames in MIMO anyway. When the SMPS configuration gets more permissive (e.g. STATIC -> OFF), we don't wake up stations that are asleep We remember that they don't know about the change and send the action frame when they wake up. When the SMPS configuration gets more restrictive (e.g. OFF -> STATIC), we set the TIM bit for every sleeping STA. uAPSD stations might send MIMO until they poll the action frame, but this is for a short period of time.

Some APs (notably a Sitecom WL-153 v1 with firmware 1.45) are sending invalid WMM parameters setting AIFSN, ECWmin and ECWmax to zero. The spec mandates that the value of AIFSN is at least 2, and some cards (e.g. Intel with the iwldvm driver) can't transmit when the invalid QoS parameters are actually uploaded to the firmware. Since there's little chance of being able to guess the values that the AP actually meant, disable WMM if such an invalid case is found. Since ECWmin/ECWmax are allowed to be zero, only verify AIFSN >= 2 and ECWmin <= ECWmax.

Seth reports that some APs, notably the Netgear WNDAP360, send invalid ECSA IEs in probe response frames with the operating class and channel number both set to zero, even when no channel switch is being done. As a result, any scan while connected to such an AP results in the connection being dropped. Fix this by ignoring any channel switch announcment in probe response frames entirely, since we're connected to the AP we will be receiving a beacon (and maybe even an action frame) if a channel switch is done, which is sufficient.

While we're connected, the AP shouldn't change the primary channel in the HT information. We checked this, and dropped the connection if it did change it. Unfortunately, this is causing problems on some APs, e.g. on the Netgear WRT610NL: the beacons seem to always contain a bad channel and if we made a connection using a probe response (correct data) we drop the connection immediately and can basically not connect properly at all. Work around this by ignoring the HT primary channel information in beacons if we're already connected. Also print out more verbose messages in the other situations to help diagnose similar bugs quicker in the future.
