Drivers might want to know also when mac80211 has completed reconfiguring after resume (e.g. in order to know when frames can be passed to mac80211). Rename restart_complete() to a more-generic reconfig_complete(), and add a new enum to indicate the reconfiguration type. Update the current users with the new prototype. Signed-off-by:

Deliver up to 128 frames during service period instead of 8 if unlimited is specified by the client during association. 8 was just an arbitrary value; so is 128 since unlimited can be any number. However for large traffic bursts, increasing this value looks reasonable. Also, it seems that a few certification tests expect more frames to be delivered during SP. Signed-off-by:

When the RIC data element (RDE) is included in the IEs coming from userspace for an association request, its handling is currently broken as any IEs that are contained within it would be split off from it and inserted again after all the IEs that mac80211 generates (e.g. HT, VHT.) To fix this, treat the RIC element specially, and stop after it only when we find something that doesn't actually belong to it. This assumes userspace is actually correctly building it, directly after the fast BSS transition IE and before all the others like extended capabilities. This leaves as a potential problem the case where userspace is building the following IEs: [RDE] [vendor resource description] [vendor non-resource IE] In this case, we'd erroneously consider all three IEs to be part of the RIC data together, and not split them between the two vendor IEs. Unfortunately, it isn't easily possible to distinguish vendor IEs, so this isn't easy to fix. Luckily, this case is rare as normally wpa_supplicant will include an extended capabilities IE in the IEs, and that certainly will break the two vendor IEs apart correctly. Reviewed-by:

This patch adds 802.11p OCB (Outside the Context of a BSS) mode support. When communicating in OCB mode a mandatory wildcard BSSID (48 '1' bits) is used. The EDCA parameters handling function was changed to support 802.11p specific values. The insertion of a newly discovered STAs is done in the similar way as in the IBSS mode -- through the deferred insertion. The OCB mode uses a periodic 'housekeeping task' for expiration of disconnected STAs (in the similar manner as in the MESH mode). New Kconfig option for verbose OCB debugging outputs is added.

This patch adds new iface type (NL80211_IFTYPE_OCB) representing the OCB (Outside the Context of a BSS) mode. When establishing a connection to the network a cfg80211_join_ocb function is called (particular nl80211_command is added as well). A mandatory parameters during the ocb_join operation are 'center frequency' and 'channel width (5/10 MHz)'. Changes done in mac80211 are minimal possible required to avoid many warnings (warning: enumeration value 'NL80211_IFTYPE_OCB' not handled in switch) during compilation. Full functionality (where needed) is added in the following patch. Signed-off-by:

H5 Specification says: If a SYNC message is received while in the Active State, it is assumed that the peer device has reset. The local device should therefore perform a full reset of the upper stack, and start Link Establishment again at the Uninitialized State. Upon entering the Active State, the first packet sent shall have its SEQ and ACK numbers set to zero. This patch resets the HCI H5 driver data/state to unitialized and reports an HCI hardware error event to notify the upper stack that HCI synchronization has been lost. H5 will be re-synchronized and upper stack should generate an HCI Reset command. Signed-off-by:

Most code avoids having a default case in interface type switch statements already, to make it easier to find places that need to be extended. Change the code in the __cfg80211_leave() and nl80211_key_allowed() functions to not have a default case. Signed-off-by: -

The 802.11 core statistics are retrieved from the core registers but not stored. So the debug code was never triggered to give a warning message on tx underruns or rx overflows. This patch fixes this and assures the statistics are stored in the snapshot. Reviewed-by:

Disconnect flow may be invoked either from upper layer request, or from event reported by the firmware. In case of firmware event, driver need to release resources for the station but not send another disconnect WMI command. In case of upper layer request, WMI_DISCONNECT_STA_CMDID command need to be issued for the firmware to perform disconnect on the MAC layer. Eventually, event is expected to confirm MAC disconnect, but it is better to not wait for firmware event and release station resources immediately. FW may fail to report disconnect for various reasons, so one could not rely on event always reported. Introduce parameter to distinguish 2 cases above to prevent double WMI command issuing.

When interface is down, recovery flow should not be attempted. Next ndo_open() will trigger target reset, that is FW recovery. Doing recovery while interface is down cause internal "up", leaving internal driver state in conflict with network stack. Then, when network stack will call ndo_open(), kernel oops will be triggered.
