PBSS (Personal Basic Service Set) is a new BSS type for DMG networks. It is similar to infrastructure BSS, having an AP-like entity called PCP (PBSS Control Point), but it has few differences. PBSS support is mandatory for 11ad devices. Add support for PBSS by introducing a new PBSS flag attribute. The PBSS flag is used in the START_AP command to request starting a PCP instead of an AP, and in the CONNECT command to request connecting to a PCP instead of an AP. Signed-off-by:

Number of deployed 80 MHz capable VHT stations that do not support 80+80 and 160 MHz bandwidths seem to misbehave when trying to connect to an AP that advertises 80+80 or 160 MHz channel bandwidth in the VHT Operation element. To avoid such issues with deployed devices, modify the design based on recently accepted IEEE 802.11 standard changes (*). This allows poorly implemented VHT 80 MHz stations to connect with the AP in 80 MHz mode. 80+80 and 160 MHz capable stations need to support the new workaround mechanism to allow full bandwidth to be used. However, there are more or less no impacted station with 80+80/160 capability deployed. The rebased version of this patch is based on the updated version from Johannes Berg to take the HT/VHT chandef refactoring into account. (*) Changes in https://mentor.ieee.org/802.11/dcn/15/11-15-1530-04-000m-vht160-operation-signaling-through-non-zero-ccfs1.docx were accepted during the IEEE 802.11 January 2016 meeting.

If any frames are dropped that are part of a BA session, the reorder buffer will "indefinitely" (until the timeout) wait for them to come in (or a BAR moving the window) and won't release frames after them. This means it isn't possible to filter frames within a BA session in firmware. Introduce an API function that allows such filtering. Calling this function will move the BA window forward to the new SSN, and allows marking frames after the SSN as having been filtered, so any future reordering activity will release frames while skipping the holes.

Clean up ieee80211_rx_reorder_ready() callers by passing the RX TID struct and the index, instead of the frames list. This will make it more extensible as well. While at it, move the inline to rx.c as it's only used there. Signed-off-by: -

This will allow drivers to make more educated decisions whether to defer transmission or not. Relying on wake_tx_queue() call count implicitly was not possible because it could be called without queued frame count actually changing on software tx aggregation start/stop code paths. It was also not possible to know how long byte-wise queue was without dequeueing. Signed-off-by:

Drivers/devices without their own rate control algorithm can get the information what rates they should use from either the radiotap header of injected frames or from the rate control algorithm. But the parsing of the legacy rate information from the radiotap header was removed in commit e6a9854b ("mac80211/drivers: rewrite the rate control API"). The removal of this feature heavily reduced the usefulness of frame injection when wanting to simulate specific transmission behavior. Having rate parsing together with MCS rates and retry support allows a fine grained selection of the tx behavior of injected frames for these kind of tests. Signed-off-by:

When CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING is set, the sta_info_insert_finish function consumes more stack than normally, exceeding the 1024 byte limit on ARM: net/mac80211/sta_info.c: In function 'sta_info_insert_finish': net/mac80211/sta_info.c:561:1: error: the frame size of 1080 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=] It turns out that there are two functions that put a 'struct station_info' on the stack: __sta_info_destroy_part2 and sta_info_insert_finish, and this structure alone requires up to 792 bytes. Hoping that both are called rarely enough, this replaces the on-stack structure with a dynamic allocation, which unfortunately requires some suboptimal error handling for out-of-memory. The __sta_info_destroy_part2 function is actually affected by the stack usage twice because it calls cfg80211_del_sta_sinfo(), which has another instance of struct station_info on its stack.

When joining IBSS a full scan should be initiated in order to search for existing cell, unless the fixed_channel parameter was set. A default channel to create the IBSS on if no cell was found is provided as well. However - a scan is initiated only on the default channel provided regardless of whether ifibss->fixed_channel is set or not, with the obvious result of the cell not joining existing IBSS cell that is on another channel.

The timestamp given by iwlwifi is at the beginning of the frame over the air, at (or during) the SYNC field. Allow such timestamps to be given to mac80211, at least (for now) for frames with non-HT/VHT preambles. Signed-off-by: -

The ieee80211_queue_stopped() expects hw queue number but it was given raw WMM AC number instead. This could cause frame drops and problems with traffic in some cases - most notably if driver doesn't map AC numbers to queue numbers 1:1 and uses ieee80211_stop_queues() and ieee80211_wake_queue() only without ever calling ieee80211_wake_queues(). On ath10k it was possible to hit this problem in the following case: 1. wlan0 uses queue 0 (ath10k maps queues per vif) 2. offchannel uses queue 15 3. queues 1-14 are unused 4. ieee80211_stop_queues() 5. ieee80211_wake_queue(q=0) 6. ieee80211_wake_queue(q=15) (other queues are not woken up because both driver and mac80211 know other queues are unused) 7. ieee80211_rx_h_mesh_fwding() 8. ieee80211_select_queue_80211() returns 2 9. ieee80211_queue_stopped(q=2) returns true 10. frame is dropped (oops!)

The driver can access the queue simultanously while mac80211 tears down the interface.

In VHT, the specification allows to limit the number of MSDUs in an A-MSDU in the Extended Capabilities IE. There is also a limitation on the byte size in the VHT IE. In HT, the only limitation is on the byte size. Parse the capabilities from the peer and make them available to the driver. In HT, there is another limitation when a BA agreement is active: the byte size can't be greater than 4095. This is not enforced here. Signed-off-by:

The minimum chandef bandwidth calculation was done only in case a new station was inserted (or when an existing station was removed). However, it is possible that stations are inserted before they are associated, e.g., when FULL_AP_CLIENT_STATE is supported and user space adds stations unassociated. Fix this by calling ieee80211_recalc_min_chandef() whenever a station transitions in/out the associated state, and only consider station marked as associated. Signed-off-by:

Some drivers offload some frames internally (e.g. AddBa). Reporting such frames to mac80211 would only confuse MLME. However it would be useful to be able to pass such frames to monitor interfaces for sniffing purposes, e.g. when running AP + monitor. To do that allow drivers to tell mac80211 whether a given frame should be: - processed but not delivered to any monitor vif - not processed but delievered to monitor vifs only Signed-off-by:

Currently mac80211 does not inform the driver of the session block ack timeout when starting a rx aggregation session. Drivers that manage the reorder buffer need to know this parameter. Seeing that there are now too many arguments for the drv_ampdu_action() function, wrap them inside a structure. Signed-off-by:
