When performing an active scan, devices emit BEACON_REQ which
must be answered by other PANs receiving the request, unless they are
already passively sending beacons.
Answering a beacon request becomes a duty when the user tells us to send
beacons and the request provides an interval of 15.

pull-request: ieee802154-next 2023-02-20
Miquel Raynal build upon his earlier work and introduced two new
features into the ieee802154 stack. Beaconing to announce existing
PAN's and passive scanning to discover the beacons and associated
PAN's. The matching changes to the userspace configuration tool
have been posted as well and will be released together with the
kernel release.
Arnd Bergmann and Dmitry Torokhov worked on converting the
at86rf230 and cc2520 drivers away from the unused platform_data
usage and towards the new gpiod API. (I had to add a revert as
Dmitry found a regression on an already pushed tree on my side).
Changes since v1 (pull request 2023-02-02)
- Netlink API extack and NLA_POLICY* usage as suggested by Jakub
- Removed always true condition found by kernel test robot
- Simplify device removal with running background job for scanning
- Fix problems with beacon sending in some cases by using the MLME
tx path

Implement the core hooks in order to provide the softMAC layer support
for passive scans. Scans are requested by the user and can be aborted.
Changing channels manually is prohibited during scans.
The implementation uses a workqueue triggered at a certain interval
depending on the symbol duration for the current channel and the
duration order provided. More advanced drivers with internal scheduling
capabilities might require additional care but there is none mainline
yet.
Received beacons during a passive scan are processed in a work queue and
their result forwarded to the upper layer.
Active scanning is not supported yet.

Miquel continued his work towards full scanning support. For this,
we now allow the creation of dedicated coordinator interfaces
to allow a PAN coordinator to serve in the network and set
the needed address filters with the hardware.
On top of this we have the first part to allow scanning for available
15.4 networks. A new netlink scan group, within the existing nl802154
API, was added.
In addition Miquel fixed two issues that have been introduced in the former
patches to free an skb correctly and clarifying an expression in the stack.
From David Girault we got tracing support when registering new PANs.

As a first strep in introducing proper PAN management and association,
we need to be able to create coordinator interfaces which might act as
coordinator or PAN coordinator.
Hence, let's add the minimum support to allow the creation of these
interfaces.
Even though the necessary logic to handle several interfaces on the same
device is added to make this future move easier, in practice only
several interfaces of type MONITOR are allowed at the same time. The
other combinations are not allowed (interface creation is possible but
only one can be opened at a time) because, with a single PHY featuring a
single set of address filters, we cannot afford handling two distinct
interfaces (with different address filters or filtering requirements):
* Having 2 NODEs, 2 COORDs or 1 NODE + 1 COORD
-> cannot work because the address filters would be different
* Having 1 MONITOR + either 1 NODE or 1 COORD
-> cannot work because the filtering levels are incompatible

Move kfree_skb() from the end of __ieee802154_rx_handle_packet() to

first pieces of a big enhancements in managing PAN's. We might have another pull
request ready for this cycle later on, but I want to get this one out first.
Miquel Raynal added support for sending frames synchronously as a dependency
to handle MLME commands. Also introducing more filtering levels to match with
the needs of a device when scanning or operating as a pan coordinator.
To support development and testing the hwsim driver for ieee802154 was also

Back in 2014, the LQI was saved in the skb control buffer (skb->cb, or
mac_cb(skb)) without any actual reset of this area prior to its use.
As part of a useful rework of the use of this region, 32edc40ae6
("ieee802154: change _cb handling slightly") introduced mac_cb_init() to
basically memset the cb field to 0. In particular, this new function got
called at the beginning of mac802154_parse_frame_start(), right before
the location where the buffer got actually filled.
What went through unnoticed however, is the fact that the very first
helper called by device drivers in the receive path already used this
area to save the LQI value for later extraction. Resetting the cb field
"so late" led to systematically zeroing the LQI.
If we consider the reset of the cb field needed, we can make it as soon
as we get an skb from a device driver, right before storing the LQI,
as is the very first time we need to write something there.

With DEBUG defined, any frame received will see its MHR fields (fc and
addresses, mainly) being printed in the kernel log buffer,
unconditionally. In most cases this is fine, but in some specific cases
(like Acknowledgment frames, where both the source and destination
addressing fields are omitted), it displays garbage which is
misleading.
Only print the addressing fields when they are present, which clarifies

The current filtering level is set on the first interface up on a wpan
phy. If we support scan functionality we need to change the filtering
level on the fly on an operational phy and switching back again.
This patch will move the receive mode parameter e.g. address filter and
promiscuous mode to the drv_start() functionality to allow changing the
receive mode on an operational phy not on first ifup only. In future this
should be handled on driver layer because each hardware has it's own way
to enter a specific filtering level. However this should offer to switch
to mode IEEE802154_FILTERING_NONE and back to
IEEE802154_FILTERING_4_FRAME_FIELDS.
Only IEEE802154_FILTERING_4_FRAME_FIELDS and IEEE802154_FILTERING_NONE
are somewhat supported by current hardware. All other filtering levels
can be supported in future but will end in IEEE802154_FILTERING_NONE as
the receive part can kind of "emulate" those receive paths by doing
additional filtering routines.
There are in total three filtering levels in the code:
- the per-interface default level (should not be changed)
- the required per-interface level (mac commands may play with it)
- the actual per-PHY (hw) level that is currently in use

Upon reception, a packet must be categorized, either it's destination is
the host, or it is another host. A packet with no destination addressing
fields may be valid in two situations:
- the packet has no source field: only ACKs are built like that, we
consider the host as the destination.
- the packet has a valid source field: it is directed to the PAN
coordinator, as for know we don't have this information we consider we
are not the PAN coordinator.
There was likely a copy/paste error made during a previous cleanup
because the if clause is now containing exactly the same condition as in
the switch case, which can never be true. In the past the destination
address was used in the switch and the source address was used in the
if, which matches what the spec says.
