cfg80211: don't pass pointer to pointer unnecessarily

2019-04-26T11:02:11+00:00

The cfg80211_merge_profile() and ieee802_11_find_bssid_profile() are
a bit cleaner if we just pass the merged_ie pointer instead of a pointer
to the pointer.

This isn't a functional change, it's just a clean up.

mac80211: support profile split between elements

2019-04-26T11:02:11+00:00

Since an element is limited to 255 octets, a profile may be split
split to several elements. Support the split as defined in the 11ax
draft 3.

Merge net-next to resolve a conflict and to get the mac80211
rhashtable fixes so further patches can be applied on top.

mac80211: support max channel switch time element

2019-02-22T12:42:54+00:00

2018 REVmd of the spec introduces the max channel switch time
element which is optionally included in beacons/probes when there
is a channel switch / extended channel switch element.
The value represents the maximum delay between the time the AP
transmitted the last beacon in current channel and the expected
time of the first beacon in the new channel, in TU.

Parse the value and pass it to the driver.

mac80211: call drv_ibss_join() on restart

2019-02-11T14:50:56+00:00

If a driver does any significant activity in its ibss_join method,
then it will very well expect that to be called during restart,
before any stations are added. Do that.

mac80211: support multi-bssid

2019-02-08T12:56:37+00:00

Add support for multi-bssid.

This includes:
- Parsing multi-bssid element
- Overriding DTIM values
- Taking into account in various places the inner BSSID instead of
  transmitter BSSID
- Save aside some multi-bssid properties needed by drivers

mac80211: pass bssids to elements parsing function

2019-02-08T12:51:50+00:00

In multiple BSSID, we have nested IEs inside the multiple
BSSID IE, that override the external ones for that specific
BSS. As preparation for supporting that, pass 2 BSSIDs to the
parse function, the transmitter, and the selected BSSID, so
it can know which IEs to choose. If the selected BSSID is
NULL, the outer ones will be applied.

Change ieee80211_bss_info_update to parse elements itself,
instead of receiving them parsed, so we have the relevant
bss entry in hand.

mac80211: update driver when MU EDCA params change

Similar to WMM IE, if MU_EDCA IE parameters changed (or ceased to exist)
tell the Driver about it.
