cfg80211: clean up beacon loss CQM event

2014-11-26T19:56:42+00:00

Having it as a sub-event for RSSI thresholds is very ugly,
but luckily no userspace actually uses the events yet.

Move the event to its own function call internally and to
its own event attribute in nl80211.

nl80211: Replace interface socket owner attribute with more generic one

2014-11-19T17:54:40+00:00

Replace NL80211_ATTR_IFACE_SOCKET_OWNER attribute with more generic
NL80211_ATTR_SOCKET_OWNER that can be used with other commands
that interface creation.

cfg80211: allow drivers to support random MAC addresses for scan

2014-11-19T17:45:52+00:00

Add the necessary feature flags and a scan flag to support using
random MAC addresses for scan while unassociated.

The configuration for this supports an arbitrary MAC address
value and mask, so that any kind of configuration (e.g. fixed
OUI or full 46-bit random) can be requested. Full 46-bit random
is the default when no other configuration is passed.

Also add a small helper function to use the addr/mask correctly.

cfg80211: add wowlan net-detect support

2014-11-19T17:45:45+00:00

Add a new WoWLAN API to enable net-detect as a wake up trigger.
Net-detect allows the device to scan in the background while the
host is asleep to wake up the host system when a matching network
is found.

Reuse the scheduled scan attributes to specify how the scan is
performed while suspended and the matches that will trigger a
wake event.

cfg80211: introduce TDLS channel switch commands

2014-11-19T17:45:12+00:00

Introduce commands to initiate and cancel TDLS channel-switching. Once
TDLS channel-switching is started, the lower level driver is responsible
for continually initiating channel-switch operations and returning to
the base (AP) channel to listen for beacons from time to time.

Upon cancellation of the channel-switch all communication between the
relevant TDLS peers will continue on the base channel.

cfg/mac80211: define TDLS channel switch feature bit

2014-11-19T17:44:58+00:00

Define some related TDLS protocol constants and advertise channel switch
support in the extended-capabilities IE when the feature bit is defined.

Actually supporting TDLS channel-switching also requires support for
some new nl80211 commands, to be introduced by future patches.

cfg80211: introduce regulatory flags controlling bw

2014-11-10T09:36:21+00:00

Allow setting bandwidth related regulatory flags. These flags are mapped
to the corresponding channel flags in the specified range.
Make sure the new flags are consulted when calculating the maximum
bandwidth allowed by a regulatory-rule.

Also allow propagating the GO_CONCURRENT modifier from a reg-rule to a
channel.

cfg80211/mac80211: allow any interface to send channel switch notifications

2014-11-10T09:20:18+00:00

For multi-vif channel switches, we want to send
NL80211_CMD_CH_SWITCH_NOTIFY to the userspace to let it decide whether
other interfaces need to be moved as well.  This is needed when we
want a P2P GO interface to follow the channel of a station, for
example.

Modify the code so that all interfaces can send CSA notifications.
Additionally, send notifications for STA CSA as well.

cfg80211: add channel switch started notification

2014-11-10T09:20:14+00:00

Add a new NL80211_CH_SWITCH_STARTED_NOTIFY message that can be sent to
the userspace when a channel switch process has started.  This allows
userspace to take action, for instance, by requesting other interfaces
to switch channel as necessary.

This patch introduces a function that allows the drivers to send this
notification.  It should be used when the driver starts processing a
channel switch initiated by a remote device (eg. when a STA receives a
CSA from the AP) and when it successfully starts a userspace-triggered
channel switch (eg. when hostapd triggers a channel swith in the AP).

cfg80211: 802.11p OCB mode handling

2014-11-04T12:18:17+00:00

This patch adds new iface type (NL80211_IFTYPE_OCB) representing
the OCB (Outside the Context of a BSS) mode.
When establishing a connection to the network a cfg80211_join_ocb
function is called (particular nl80211_command is added as well).
A mandatory parameters during the ocb_join operation are 'center
frequency' and 'channel width (5/10 MHz)'.

Changes done in mac80211 are minimal possible required to avoid
many warnings (warning: enumeration value 'NL80211_IFTYPE_OCB'
not handled in switch) during compilation. Full functionality
(where needed) is added in the following patch.
