nl80211/cfg80211: add radar detection command/event

2013-02-15T08:40:18+00:00

Add new NL80211_CMD_RADAR_DETECT, which starts the Channel
Availability Check (CAC). This command will also notify the
usermode about events (CAC finished, CAC aborted, radar
detected, NOP finished).
Once radar detection has started it should continuously
monitor for radars as long as the channel is active.

This patch enables DFS for AP mode in nl80211/cfg80211.

Based on original patch by Victor Goldenshtein

cfg80211: pass wiphy to cfg80211_ref_bss/put_bss

2013-02-11T17:44:52+00:00

This prepares for using the spinlock instead of krefs
which is needed in the next patch to track the refs
of combined BSSes correctly.

cfg80211: add SME state to warning in __cfg80211_mlme_disassoc

2013-01-29T11:16:35+00:00

The warning here occasionally triggers but we haven't
found the cause yet. It's a valid warning since if it
triggers the SME state got confused, so add the SME
state to it to help narrow it down in the future.

cfg80211: move some AP code to right file

2013-01-03T12:01:40+00:00

Some AP code ended up in mlme.c as ap.c didn't
exist when it was written, move it now.

cfg80211: pass a channel definition struct

2012-11-26T11:42:58+00:00

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.

Also, add a small inline cfg80211_get_chandef_type() so
that drivers don't need to use the _type field of the
new structure all the time, which will change.

cfg80211: remove remain-on-channel channel type

2012-11-26T11:42:58+00:00

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.

Also add tracing to the API functions that drivers
(and mac80211) can call in cfg80211.

cfg80211: Allow user space to specify non-IEs to SAE Authentication

2012-10-17T09:02:11+00:00

SAE extends Authentication frames with fields that are not information
elements. NL80211_ATTR_IE is not suitable for these, so introduce a new
attribute that can be used to specify the fields needed for SAE in
station mode.
