mac80211: protect non-HT BSS when HT TDLS traffic exists 2015-09-04T12:25:46+00:00 Avri Altman avri.altman@intel.com 2015-08-18T13:52:07+00:00 22f66895e60cfc55b92f6fa93f05bb3fbdbd0bed HT TDLS traffic should be protected in a non-HT BSS to avoid collisions. Therefore, when TDLS peers join/leave, check if protection is (now) needed and set the ht_operation_mode of the virtual interface according to the HT capabilities of the TDLS peer(s). This works because a non-HT BSS connection never sets (or otherwise uses) the ht_operation_mode; it just means that drivers must be aware that this field applies to all HT traffic for this virtual interface, not just the traffic within the BSS. Document that. Signed-off-by: Avri Altman <avri.altman@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

It does not define a clear way to transition between SMPS states. To avoid interop issues, set SMPS to off when TDLS peers are connected. Accomplish this by extending the definition of the AUTOMATIC state. If the driver forces a state other than OFF, disconnect all TDLS peers. While at it, avoid changing the SMPS state of the peer STA. We have no way to control it, so try and behave correctly towards it. Move the TDLS peer-teardown function to where the rest of the TDLS code resides.
