50640f1693 nl80211: advertise HT/VHT channel limitations
When drivers or regulatory have limitations on
40, 80 or 160 MHz channels, advertise these to
userspace via nl80211. Also add a new feature
flag to let userspace know this is supported.

c7a6ee27ab cfg80211: allow drivers to selectively disable 80/160 MHz
Some drivers might support 80 or 160 MHz only on some
channels for whatever reason, so allow them to disable
these channel widths. Also maintain the new flags when
regulatory bandwidth limitations would disable these

04f39047af nl80211/cfg80211: add radar detection command/event
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.

8cef2c9df8 cfg80211: move TSF into IEs
While technically the TSF isn't an IE, it can be
necessary to distinguish between the TSF from a
beacon and a probe response, in particular in
order to know the next DTIM TBTT, as not all APs
are spec compliant wrt. TSF==0 being a DTIM TBTT
and thus the DTIM count needs to be taken into
account as well.

To allow this, move the TSF into the IE struct
so it can be known whence it came.

776b358017 cfg80211: track hidden SSID networks properly
Currently, cfg80211 will copy beacon IEs from a previously
received hidden SSID beacon to a probe response entry, if
that entry is created after the beacon entry. However, if
it is the other way around, or if the beacon is updated,
such changes aren't propagated.

Fix this by tracking the relation between the probe
response and beacon BSS structs in this case.

In case drivers have private data stored in a BSS struct
and need access to such data from a beacon entry, cfg80211
now provides the hidden_beacon_bss pointer from the probe
response entry to the beacon entry.

4593c4cbe1 cfg80211: fix BSS list hidden SSID lookup
When trying to find a hidden SSID, the lookup function
is done wrong; the code is trying to combine the two
lookups into one, and as a consequence doesn't always
find the entry at all. To understand this, consider a
case where multiple BSS entries with the same channel
and BSSID exist but have different SSID length. Then
comparing against the probe response SSID length is
bound to cause problems since the hidden one might be
either zeroed out or zero-length.

To fix this we need to do two lookups for the two ways
to hide SSIDs.

1c18f1452a nl80211: allow user-space to set address for P2P_DEVICE
As per email discussion Jouni Malinen pointed out that:

"P2P message exchanges can be executed on the current operating channel
of any operation (both P2P and non-P2P station). These can be on 5 GHz
and even on 60 GHz (so yes, you _can_ do GO Negotiation on 60 GHz).

As an example, it would be possible to receive a GO Negotiation Request
frame on a 5 GHz only radio and then to complete GO Negotiation on that
band. This can happen both when connected to a P2P group (through client
discoverability mechanism) and when connected to a legacy AP (assuming
the station receive Probe Request frame from full scan in the beginning
of P2P device discovery)."

This means that P2P messages can be sent over different radio devices.
However, these should use the same P2P device address so it should be
able to provision this from user-space. This patch adds a parameter for
this to struct vif_params which should only be used during creation of
the P2P device interface.

Add power_mode entry to the mesh config structure to hold the

Add the dot11MeshAwakeWindowDuration value to the mesh config.
The awake window is a duration in TU describing how long the STA
will stay awake after transmitting its beacon in PS mode.

Add access routines to:
 - get/set local link-specific power mode (STA)
 - get remote STA's link-specific power mode (STA)
 - get remote STA's non-peer power mode (STA)
 - get/set default mesh power mode (mesh config)
 - get/set mesh awake window duration (mesh config)

All config changes may be done at mesh runtime and take effect

2d31986764 regulatory: fix restore_regulatory_settings
My commit 379b82f4c9
("regulatory: pass new regdomain to reset function")
broke the restore_regulatory_settings() function due
to a logic change. Consider this change:

-	reset_regdomains(true);
-	cfg80211_regdomain = cfg80211_world_regdom;
+	reset_regdomains(true, cfg80211_world_regdom);

This looks innocent enough, until you realise that the
called function (reset_regdomains) also resets the
cfg80211_world_regdom pointer, so that the old version
of the code would use the new object it pointed to and
the new version of the code uses the old object. This
lead to a double-free of this object.

Since reset_regdomains() sets it to &world_regdom, use
that directly.

d582cffbcd nl80211/mac80211: support full station state in AP mode
Today, stations are added already associated. That is
inefficient if, for example, the driver has no room
for stations any more because then the station will
go through the entire auth/assoc handshake, only to
be kicked out afterwards.

To address this a bit better, at least with drivers
using the new station state callback, allow hostapd
to add stations in unauthenticated mode, just after
receiving the AUTH frame, before even replying. Thus
if there's no more space at that point, it can send
a negative auth frame back. It still needs to handle
later state transition errors though, of course.

3ebfa6e76b cfg80211: do not process beacon hints if one is already queued
Regulatory beacon hints are used to help with world roaming
and as it is right now we learn from a beacon hint processed
on one wiphy to all other wiphys. The processing of beacon
hints however is scheduled and if we have a lot of interfaces
we may hit the case that we'll queue a the same beacon hint
many times until its processed.

To avoid this do a lookup on the queued up beacon hints prior
to adding a new beacon hint. If the beacon hint is removed
from the pending reg beacon hint list then it would be processed
and we'd ensure all wiphys would have learned from it, if its
on the pending reg beacon list we'd now find it prior to it
being processed.

458f4f9e96 regulatory: use RCU to protect global and wiphy regdomains
To simplify the locking and not require cfg80211_mutex
(which nl80211 uses to access the global regdomain) and
also to make it possible for drivers to access their
wiphy->regd safely, use RCU to protect these pointers.

379b82f4c9 regulatory: pass new regdomain to reset function
Instead of assigning after calling the function do
it inside the function. This will later avoid a
period of time where the pointer is NULL.
