To ease further DFS development regarding interface combinations, use the interface combinations structure to test for radar capabilities. Drivers can specify which channel widths they support, and in which modes. Right now only a single AP interface is allowed, but as the DFS code evolves other combinations can be enabled.

As per email discussion Jouni Malinen pointed out that: "P2P message exchanges can be executed on the current operating channel of any operation (both P2P and non-P2P station). These can be on 5 GHz and even on 60 GHz (so yes, you _can_ do GO Negotiation on 60 GHz). As an example, it would be possible to receive a GO Negotiation Request frame on a 5 GHz only radio and then to complete GO Negotiation on that band. This can happen both when connected to a P2P group (through client discoverability mechanism) and when connected to a legacy AP (assuming the station receive Probe Request frame from full scan in the beginning of P2P device discovery)." This means that P2P messages can be sent over different radio devices. However, these should use the same P2P device address so it should be able to provision this from user-space. This patch adds a parameter for this to struct vif_params which should only be used during creation of the P2P device interface.

Add the nl80211_mesh_power_mode enumeration which holds possible values for the mesh power mode. These modes are unknown, active, light sleep and deep sleep. Add power_mode entry to the mesh config structure to hold the user-configured default mesh power mode. This value will be used for new peer links. Add the dot11MeshAwakeWindowDuration value to the mesh config. The awake window is a duration in TU describing how long the STA will stay awake after transmitting its beacon in PS mode. Add access routines to: - get/set local link-specific power mode (STA) - get remote STA's link-specific power mode (STA) - get remote STA's non-peer power mode (STA) - get/set default mesh power mode (mesh config) - get/set mesh awake window duration (mesh config) All config changes may be done at mesh runtime and take effect immediately.

Change nl80211 to support specifying a VHT (or HT) using the control channel frequency (as before) and new attributes for the channel width and first and second center frequency. The old channel type is of course still supported for HT. Also change the cfg80211 channel definition struct to support these by adding the relevant fields to it (and removing the _type field.) This also adds new helper functions: - cfg80211_chandef_create to create a channel def struct given the control channel and channel type, - cfg80211_chandef_identical to check if two channel definitions are identical - cfg80211_chandef_compatible to check if the given channel definitions are compatible, and return the wider of the two This isn't entirely complete, but that doesn't matter until we have a driver using it. In particular, it's missing - regulatory checks on the usable bandwidth (if that even makes sense) - regulatory TX power (database can't deal with it) - a proper channel compatibility calculation for the new channel types Signed-off-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

Instead of passing a channel pointer and channel type to all functions and driver methods, pass a new channel definition struct. Right now, this struct contains just the control channel and channel type, but for VHT this will change.

As mwifiex (and mac80211 in the software case) are the only drivers actually implementing remain-on-channel with channel type, userspace can't be relying on it. This is the case, as it's used only for P2P operations right now. Rather than adding a flag to tell userspace whether or not it can actually rely on it, simplify all the code by removing the ability to use different channel types. Leave only the validation of the attribute, so that if we extend it again later (with the needed capability flag), it can't break userspace sending invalid data.

The NL80211_CMD_TDLS_OPER command was previously used only for userspace request for the kernel code to perform TDLS operations. However, there are also cases where the driver may need to request operations from userspace, e.g., when using security on the AP path. Add a new cfg80211 function for generating a TDLS operation event for drivers to request a new link to be set up (NL80211_TDLS_SETUP) or an existing link to be torn down (NL80211_TDLS_TEARDOWN). Drivers can optionally use these events, e.g., based on noticing data traffic being sent to a peer station that is seen with good signal strength.

Parsing the P2P attributes can be tricky as their contents can be split across multiple (vendor) IEs. Thus, it's not possible to parse them like IEs (by returning a pointer to the data.) Instead, provide a function that copies the attribute data into a caller-provided buffer and returns the size needed (useful in case the buffer was too small.)

The TX power setting is currently per wiphy (hardware device) but with multi-channel capabilities that doesn't make much sense any more. Allow drivers (and mac80211) to advertise support for per-interface TX power configuration. When the TX power is configured for the wiphy, the wdev will be NULL and the driver can still handle that, but when a wdev is given the TX power can be set only for that wdev now.

Add an NL80211_SCAN_FLAG_FLUSH flag that causes old bss cache entries to be flushed on scan completion. This is useful for collecting guaranteed fresh scan/survey result (e.g. on resume). For normal scan, flushing only happens on successful completion of a scan; i.e. it does not happen if the scan is aborted. For scheduled scan, previous scan results are flushed everytime when we get new scan results. This feature is enabled by default.

In order to support using a different MAC address for the P2P Device address we must first have a P2P Device abstraction that can be assigned a MAC address. This abstraction will also be useful to support offloading P2P operations to the device, e.g. periodic listen for discoverability. Currently, the driver is responsible for assigning a MAC address to the P2P Device, but this could be changed by allowing a MAC address to be given to the NEW_INTERFACE command. As it has no associated netdev, a P2P Device can only be identified by its wdev identifier but the previous patches allowed using the wdev identifier in various APIs, e.g. remain-on-channel.

Currently the only way for wireless drivers to tell whether or not OFDM is allowed on the current channel is to check the regulatory information. However, this requires hodling cfg80211_mutex, which is not visible to the drivers. Other regulatory restrictions are provided as flags in the channel definition, so let's do similarly with OFDM. This patch adds a new flag, IEEE80211_CHAN_NO_OFDM, to tell drivers that OFDM on a channel is not allowed. This flag is set on any channels for which regulatory indicates that OFDM is prohibited.

Revert commit b78e8cea ("cfg80211: track monitor channel") and remove the set_monitor_enabled() callback. Due to the tracking happening in NETDEV_PRE_UP, it had introduced bugs because the monitor interface callback would be called before the device was started. It looks like there's no way to fix this, and using NETDEV_PRE_UP is broken anyway (since there's no NETDEV_UP_FAIL), so remove all that code, track interfaces in NETDEV_UP and also stop tracking the monitor channel in cfg80211. This mostly reverts to before the tracking, except that we keep the interface count tracking so that setting the monitor channel can be rejected properly.
