Association is dealt with as an atomic offchannel operation, we do this because we don't know we are associated until we get the associatin response from the AP. When we do get the associatin response though we were never clearing the offchannel state. This has a few implications, we told drivers we were still offchannel, and the first configured TX power for the channel does not take into account any power constraints. For ath9k this meant ANI calibration would not start upon association, and we'd have to wait until the first bgscan to be triggered. There may be other issues this resolves but I'm too lazy to comb the code to check.

This function exists to clean-up after a hardware error or something similar. The restart is accomplished using the same infrastructure used to resume after a suspend. The suspend path cancels running scans, so it seems appropriate to do that here as well for software-based scans. If a hardware-based scan is pending, issue a warning message since this indicates that the drivers has failed to clean-up after itself. Signed-off-by: NJohn W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

The new workqueue changes helped me find this bug that's been lingering since the changes to the work processing in mac80211 -- the work timer is never deleted properly. Do that to avoid having it fire after all data structures have been freed. It can't be re-armed because all it will do, if running, is schedule the work, but that gets flushed later and won't have anything to do since all work items are gone by now (by way of interface removal).

When a mac80211-based driver advertises mesh mode support, this will be advertised to userspace. However, if mac80211 was compiled without mesh support, then that won't actually be true. Fix this by removing the bit for mesh if mesh isn't compiled in. Since this synchronizes what we advertise to cfg80211 and actually support, it means we can now rely on cfg80211's interface type checks and need not check again in mac80211.

Unlike most other workqueue-tasks, the restart_work is not scheduled onto mac80211's private per-interface workqueue, but onto one of the system-wide workqueues. Therefore the mac80211-stack has to cancel any pending restarts, before destroying the shared device context and handing back the memory. Otherwise - under very unlucky circumstances - there could be a stale work- item left, because some other kernel component might have delayed the execution of ieee80211_restart_work for too long.

This patch implement basic infrastructure to support use of NAPI by mac80211-based hardware drivers. Because mac80211 devices can support multiple netdevs, a dummy netdev is used for interfacing with the NAPI code in the core of the network stack. That structure is hidden from the hardware drivers, but the actual napi_struct is exposed in the ieee80211_hw structure so that the poll routines in drivers can retrieve that structure. Hardware drivers can also specify their own weight value for NAPI polling. Signed-off-by: NJohn W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

The current mac80211 code assumes that WEP is always available. If WEP fails to initialize, ieee80211_register_hw will always fail. In some cases (e.g. FIPS certification), the cryptography used by WEP is unavailable. However, in such cases there is no good reason why CCMP encryption (or even no link level encryption) cannot be used. So, this patch removes mac80211's assumption that WEP (and TKIP) will always be available for use. Signed-off-by: NJohn W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

The ps-qos latency handling is broken. It uses predetermined latency values to select specific dynamic PS timeouts. With common AP configurations, these values overlap with beacon interval and are therefore essentially useless (for network latencies less than the beacon interval, PSM is disabled.) This patch remedies the problem by replacing the predetermined network latency values with one high value (1900ms) which is used to go trigger full psm. For backwards compatibility, the value 2000ms is still mapped to a dynamic ps timeout of 100ms. Currently also the mac80211 internal value for storing user space configured dynamic PSM values is incorrectly in the driver visible ieee80211_conf struct. Move it to the ieee80211_local struct.

Some hardware allow extended filtering of ARP frames not intended for the host. To perform such filtering, the hardware needs to know the current IP address(es) of the host, bound to its interface. Add support for ARP filtering to mac80211 by adding a new op to the driver interface, allowing to configure the current IP addresses. This op is called upon association with the currently configured address(es), and when associated whenever the IP address(es) change. This patch adds configuration of IPv4 addresses only, as IPv6 addresses don't need ARP filtering.

Currently, when one interface switches HT mode, all others will follow along. This is clearly undesirable, since the new one might switch to no-HT while another one is operating in HT. Address this issue by keeping track of the HT mode per interface, and allowing only changes that are compatible, i.e. switching into HT40+ is not possible when another interface is in HT40-, in that case the second one needs to fall back to HT20. Also, to allow drivers to know what's going on, store the per-interface HT mode (channel type) in the virtual interface's bss_conf.
