In order for the Fq_CoDel algorithm integrated in mac80211 layer to operate
effectively to control excessive queueing latency, the CoDel algorithm
requires an accurate measure of how long packets stays in the queue, AKA
sojourn time. The sojourn time measured at the mac80211 layer doesn't
include queueing latency in the lower layer (firmware/hardware) and CoDel
expects lower layer to have a short queue. However, most 802.11ac chipsets
offload tasks such TX aggregation to firmware or hardware, thus have a deep
lower layer queue.
Without a mechanism to control the lower layer queue size, packets only
stay in mac80211 layer transiently before being sent to firmware queue.
As a result, the sojourn time measured by CoDel in the mac80211 layer is
almost always lower than the CoDel latency target, hence CoDel does little
to control the latency, even when the lower layer queue causes excessive
latency.
The Byte Queue Limits (BQL) mechanism is commonly used to address the
similar issue with wired network interface. However, this method cannot be
applied directly to the wireless network interface. "Bytes" is not a
suitable measure of queue depth in the wireless network, as the data rate
can vary dramatically from station to station in the same network, from a
few Mbps to over Gbps.
This patch implements an Airtime-based Queue Limit (AQL) to make CoDel work
effectively with wireless drivers that utilized firmware/hardware
offloading. AQL allows each txq to release just enough packets to the lower
layer to form 1-2 large aggregations to keep hardware fully utilized and
retains the rest of the frames in mac80211 layer to be controlled by the
CoDel algorithm.

This provides an alternative mechanism for AP VLAN support where a
single netdev is used with VLAN tagged frames instead of separate
netdevs for each VLAN without tagged frames from the WLAN driver.
By setting NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_VLAN_OFFLOAD flag the driver indicates
support for a single netdev with VLAN tagged frames. Separate
VLAN-specific netdevs can be added using RTM_NEWLINK/IFLA_VLAN_ID
similarly to Ethernet. NL80211_CMD_NEW_KEY (for group keys),
NL80211_CMD_NEW_STATION, and NL80211_CMD_SET_STATION will optionally
specify vlan_id using NL80211_ATTR_VLAN_ID.

In non-ETSI regulatory domains scan is blocked when operating channel
is a DFS channel. For ETSI, however, once DFS channel is marked as
available after the CAC, this channel will remain available (for some
time) even after leaving this channel.
Therefore a scan can be done without any impact on the availability
of the DFS channel as no new CAC is required after the scan.
Enable scan in mac80211 in these cases.

802.11ay specification defines Enhanced Directional Multi-Gigabit
(EDMG) STA and AP which allow channel bonding of 2 channels and more.
Introduce new NL attributes that are needed for enabling and
configuring EDMG support.
Two new attributes are used by kernel to publish driver's EDMG
capabilities to the userspace:
NL80211_BAND_ATTR_EDMG_CHANNELS - bitmap field that indicates the 2.16
GHz channel(s) that are supported by the driver.
When this attribute is not set it means driver does not support EDMG.
NL80211_BAND_ATTR_EDMG_BW_CONFIG - represent the channel bandwidth
configurations supported by the driver.
Additional two new attributes are used by the userspace for connect
command and for AP configuration:
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_EDMG_CHANNELS
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_EDMG_BW_CONFIG
New rate info flag - RATE_INFO_FLAGS_EDMG, can be reported from driver
and used for bitrate calculation that will take into account EDMG
according to the 802.11ay specification.

Commit 33d915d9e8 ("{nl,mac}80211: allow 4addr AP operation on
crypto controlled devices") has introduced a change which allows
4addr operation on crypto controlled devices (ex: ath10k). This
change has inadvertently impacted the interface combinations logic
on such devices.
General rule is that software interfaces like AP/VLAN should not be
listed under supported interface combinations and should not be
considered during validation of these combinations; because of the
aforementioned change, AP/VLAN interfaces(if present) will be checked
against interfaces supported by the device and blocks valid interface
combinations.
Consider a case where an AP and AP/VLAN are up and running; when a
second AP device is brought up on the same physical device, this AP
will be checked against the AP/VLAN interface (which will not be
part of supported interface combinations of the device) and blocks
second AP to come up.
Add a new API cfg80211_iftype_allowed() to fix the problem, this
API works for all devices with/without SW crypto control.

cfg80211_remain_on_channel_expired is used to notify userspace when
the remain on channel duration expired by sending an event. There is
no such equivalent to CMD_FRAME, where if offchannel and a duration
is provided, the card will go offchannel for that duration. Currently
there is no way for userspace to tell when that duration expired
apart from setting an independent timeout. This timeout is quite
erroneous as the kernel may not immediately send out the frame
because of scheduling or work queue delays. In testing, it was found
this timeout had to be quite large to accomidate any potential delays.
A better solution is to have the kernel send an event when this
duration has expired. There is already NL80211_CMD_FRAME_WAIT_CANCEL
which can be used to cancel a NL80211_CMD_FRAME offchannel. Using this
command matches perfectly to how NL80211_CMD_CANCEL_REMAIN_ON_CHANNEL
works, where its both used to cancel and notify if the duration has
expired.

If the BSS is expired during connection, the connect result will
trigger a kernel warning. Ideally cfg80211 should hold the BSS
before the connection is attempted, but as the BSSID is not known
in case of auth/assoc MLME offload (connect op) it doesn't.
For those drivers without the connect op cfg80211 holds down the
reference so it wil not be removed from list.
Fix this by removing the warning and silently adding the BSS back to
the bss list which is return by the driver (with proper BSSID set) or
in case the BSS is already added use that.
The requirements for drivers are documented in the API's.

As per the current design, in the case of sw crypto controlled devices,
it is the device which advertises the support for AP/VLAN iftype based
on it's ability to tranmsit packets encrypted in software
(In VLAN functionality, group traffic generated for a specific
VLAN group is always encrypted in software). Commit db3bdcb9c3
("mac80211: allow AP_VLAN operation on crypto controlled devices")
has introduced this change.
Since 4addr AP operation also uses AP/VLAN iftype, this conditional
way of advertising AP/VLAN support has broken 4addr AP mode operation on
crypto controlled devices which do not support VLAN functionality.
In the case of ath10k driver, not all firmwares have support for VLAN
functionality but all can support 4addr AP operation. Because AP/VLAN
support is not advertised for these devices, 4addr AP operations are
also blocked.
Fix this by allowing 4addr operation on devices which do not support
AP/VLAN iftype but can support 4addr AP operation (decision is based on
the wiphy flag WIPHY_FLAG_4ADDR_AP).

Adding support to allow mesh HWMP to measure link metrics on unexercised
direct mesh path by sending some data frames to other mesh points which
are not currently selected as a primary traffic path but only 1 hop away.
The absence of the primary path to the chosen node makes it necessary to
apply some form of marking on a chosen packet stream so that the packets
can be properly steered to the selected node for testing, and not by the
regular mesh path lookup.

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.

This patch adds support to set transmit power setting type and transmit
power level attributes to NL80211_CMD_SET_STATION in order to facilitate
adjusting the transmit power level of a station associated to the AP.
The added attributes allow selection of automatic and limited transmit
power level, with the level defined in dBm format.

This interface allows the host driver to offload OWE processing
to user space. This intends to support OWE (Opportunistic Wireless
Encryption) AKM by the drivers that implement SME but rely on the
user space for the cryptographic/OWE processing in AP mode. Such
drivers are not capable of processing/deriving the DH IE.
A new NL80211 command - NL80211_CMD_UPDATE_OWE_INFO is introduced
to send the request/event between the host driver and user space.
Driver shall provide the OWE info (MAC address and DH IE) of
the peer to user space for cryptographic processing of the DH IE
through the event. Accordingly, the user space shall update the
OWE info/DH IE to the driver.
Following is the sequence in AP mode for OWE authentication.
Driver passes the OWE info obtained from the peer in the
Association Request to the user space through the event
cfg80211_update_owe_info_event. User space shall process the
OWE info received and generate new OWE info. This OWE info is
passed to the driver through NL80211_CMD_UPDATE_OWE_INFO
request. Driver eventually uses this OWE info to send the
Association Response to the peer.
This OWE info in the command interface carries the IEs that include
PMKID of the peer if the PMKSA is still valid or an updated DH IE
for generating a new PMKSA with the peer.

This commit adds the support to specify the RSSI thresholds per
band for each match set. This enhances the current behavior which
specifies a single rssi_threshold across all the bands by
introducing the rssi_threshold_per_band. These per band rssi
thresholds are referred through NL80211_BAND_* (enum nl80211_band)
variables as attribute types. Such attributes/values per each
band are nested through NL80211_ATTR_SCHED_SCAN_MIN_RSSI.
These band specific rssi thresholds shall take precedence over
the current rssi_thold per match set.
Drivers indicate this support through
%NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_SCHED_SCAN_BAND_SPECIFIC_RSSI_THOLD.
These per band rssi attributes/values does not specify
"default RSSI filter" as done by
NL80211_SCHED_SCAN_MATCH_ATTR_RSSI to stay backward compatible.
That said, these per band rssi values have to be specified for
the corresponding matchset.

Sometimes, we may want to transport higher bandwidth data

This extends the NL80211_CMD_ASSOCIATE event case to report
NL80211_ATTR_REQ_IE similarly to what is already done with the
NL80211_CMD_CONNECT events if the driver provides this information. In
practice, this adds (Re)Association Request frame information element
reporting to mac80211 drivers for the cases where user space SME is
used.
This provides more information for user space to figure out which
capabilities were negotiated for the association. For example, this can
be used to determine whether HT, VHT, or HE is used.

Fix cfg80211_gen_new_bssid() to not rely on u64 modulo arithmetic,

Parsing and exposing nontransmitted APs is problematic
when underlying HW doesn't support it. Do it only if
driver indicated support. Allow HE restriction as well,
since the HE spec defined the exact manner that Multiple
BSSID set should behave. APs that not support the HE
spec will have less predictable Multiple BSSID set
support/behavior

We currently have a number of helpers to find elements that just
return a u8 *, change those to return a struct element and add
inlines to deal with the u8 * compatibility.
Note that the match behaviour is changed to start the natch at
the data, so conversion from _ie_match to _elem_match need to
be done carefully.

commit 40cbfa9021 ("cfg80211/nl80211: Optional authentication
offload to userspace")' introduced authentication offload to user
space by the host drivers in station mode. This commit extends
the same for the AP mode too.
Extend NL80211_ATTR_EXTERNAL_AUTH_SUPPORT to also claim the
support of external authentication from the user space in AP mode.
A new flag parameter is introduced in cfg80211_ap_settings to
intend the same while "start ap".
Host driver to use NL80211_CMD_FRAME interface to transmit and
receive the authentication frames to / from the user space.
Host driver to indicate the flag NL80211_RXMGMT_FLAG_EXTERNAL_AUTH
while sending the authentication frame to the user space. This
intends to the user space that the driver wishes it to process
the authentication frame for certain protocols, though it had
initially advertised the support for SME functionality.
User space shall accordingly do the authentication and indicate
its final status through the command NL80211_CMD_EXTERNAL_AUTH.
Allow the command even if userspace doesn't include the attribute
NL80211_ATTR_SSID for AP interface.
Host driver shall continue with the association sequence and
indicate the STA connection status through cfg80211_new_sta.
To facilitate the host drivers in AP mode for matching the pmkid
by the stations during the association, NL80211_CMD_EXTERNAL_AUTH
is also enhanced to include the pmkid to drivers after
the authentication.
This pmkid can also be used in the STA mode to include in the
association request.
Also modify nl80211_external_auth to not mandate SSID in AP mode.
