aee6499c8c mac80211: mesh: use u16 return type for u16 getter
u16_field_get() is a simple wrapper around get_unaligned_le16(),
and it is being assigned to a u16, so there's no need to
promote to u32 in the middle.

5d52ee8110 mac80211: allow reservation of a running chanctx
With single-channel drivers, we need to be able to change a running
chanctx if we want to use chanctx reservation.  Not all drivers may be
able to do this, so add a flag that indicates support for it.

Changing a running chanctx can also be used as an optimization in
multi-channel drivers when the context needs to be reserved for future
usage.

Introduce IEEE80211_CHANCTX_RESERVED chanctx mode to mark a channel as
reserved so nobody else can use it (since we know it's going to
change).  In the future, we may allow several vifs to use the same
reservation as long as they plan to use the chanctx on the same
future channel.

11335a550b mac80211: implement chanctx reservation
In order to support channel switch with multiple vifs and multiple
contexts, we implement a concept of channel context reservation.  This
allows us to reserve a channel context to be used later.

The reservation functionality is not tied directly to channel switch
and may be used in other situations (eg. reserving a channel context
during IBSS join).

We first check if an existing compatible context exists and if it
does, we reserve it.  If there is no compatible context we create a
new one and reserve it.

Additionally, split ieee80211_vif_copy_chanctx_to_vlans() so we can
call it while already holding the chanctx mutex.

Combine the functions into one, so that we can switch from one context

is needed by the channel reservation functionality because otherwise

4e141dad26 mac80211: protect AP VLAN list with local->mtx
It was impossible to change chanctx of master AP
for AP VLANs because the copy function requires
RTNL which can't be simply taken in mac80211 code
due to possible deadlocks.

This is required for future chanctx reservation
that re-bind vifs to new chanctx. This requires
safe AP VLAN iteration without RTNL.

Now VLANs can be iterated while holding either
RTNL or local->mtx because the list is modified
while holding both of these locks.

174e0cd28a cfg80211: Enable GO operation on additional channels
Allow GO operation on a channel marked with IEEE80211_CHAN_GO_CONCURRENT
iff there is an active station interface that is associated to
an AP operating on the same channel in the 2 GHz band or the same UNII band
(in the 5 GHz band). This relaxation is not allowed if the channel is
marked with IEEE80211_CHAN_RADAR.

Note that this is a permissive approach to the FCC definitions,
that require a clear assessment that the device operating the AP is
an authorized master, i.e., with radar detection and DFS capabilities.

It is assumed that such restrictions are enforced by user space.
Furthermore, it is assumed, that if the conditions that allowed for
the operation of the GO on such a channel change, i.e., the station
interface disconnected from the AP, it is the responsibility of user
space to evacuate the GO from the channel.

3afc2167f6 cfg80211/mac80211: ignore signal if the frame was heard on wrong channel
On 2.4Ghz band, the channels overlap since the delta
between different channels is 5Mhz while the width of the
receiver is 20Mhz (at least).

This means that we can hear beacons or probe responses from
adjacent channels. These frames will have a significant
lower RSSI which will feed all kinds of logic with inaccurate
data. An obvious example is the roaming algorithm that will
think our AP is getting weak and will try to move to another
AP.

In order to avoid this, update the signal only if the frame
has been heard on the same channel as the one advertised by
the AP in its DS / HT IEs.
We refrain from updating the values only if the AP is
already in the BSS list so that we will still have a valid
(but inaccurate) value if the AP was heard on an adjacent
channel only.

To achieve this, stop taking the channel from DS / HT IEs
in mac80211. The DS / HT IEs is taken into account to
discard the frame if it was received on a disabled channel.
This can happen due to the same phenomenon: the frame is
sent on channel 12, but heard on channel 11 while channel
12 can be disabled on certain devices. Since this check
is done in cfg80211, stop even checking this in mac80211.

e3685e03b4 mac80211: fix station wakeup powersave race
Consider the following (relatively unlikely) scenario:
 1) station goes to sleep while frames are buffered in driver
 2) driver blocks wakeup (until no more frames are buffered)
 3) station wakes up again
 4) driver unblocks wakeup

In this case, the current mac80211 code will do the following:
 1) WLAN_STA_PS_STA set
 2) WLAN_STA_PS_DRIVER set
 3) - nothing -
 4) WLAN_STA_PS_DRIVER cleared

As a result, no frames will be delivered to the client, even
though it is awake, until it sends another frame to us that
triggers ieee80211_sta_ps_deliver_wakeup() in sta_ps_end().

Since we now take the PS spinlock, we can fix this while at
the same time removing the complexity with the pending skb
queue function. This was broken since my commit 50a9432dae
("mac80211: fix powersaving clients races") due to removing
the clearing of WLAN_STA_PS_STA in the RX path.

While at it, fix a cleanup path issue when a station is
removed while the driver is still blocking its wakeup.

5108ca8280 mac80211: insert stations before adding to driver
There's a race condition in mac80211 because we add stations
to the internal lists after adding them to the driver, which
means that (for example) the following can happen:
 1. a station connects and is added
 2. first, it is added to the driver
 3. then, it is added to the mac80211 lists

If the station goes to sleep between steps 2 and 3, and the
firmware/hardware records it as being asleep, mac80211 will
never instruct the driver to wake it up again as it never
realized it went to sleep since the RX path discarded the
frame as a "spurious class 3 frame", no station entry was
present yet.

Fix this by adding the station in software first, and only
then adding it to the driver. That way, any state that the
driver changes will be reflected properly in mac80211's
station state. The problematic part is the roll-back if the
driver fails to add the station, in that case a bit more is
needed. To not make that overly complex prevent starting BA
sessions in the meantime.

1d147bfa64 mac80211: fix AP powersave TX vs. wakeup race
There is a race between the TX path and the STA wakeup: while
a station is sleeping, mac80211 buffers frames until it wakes
up, then the frames are transmitted. However, the RX and TX
path are concurrent, so the packet indicating wakeup can be
processed while a packet is being transmitted.

This can lead to a situation where the buffered frames list
is emptied on the one side, while a frame is being added on
the other side, as the station is still seen as sleeping in
the TX path.

As a result, the newly added frame will not be send anytime
soon. It might be sent much later (and out of order) when the
station goes to sleep and wakes up the next time.

Additionally, it can lead to the crash below.

Fix all this by synchronising both paths with a new lock.
Both path are not fastpath since they handle PS situations.

In a later patch we'll remove the extra skb queue locks to
reduce locking overhead.

99932d4fc0 netdevice: add queue selection fallback handler for ndo_select_queue
Add a new argument for ndo_select_queue() callback that passes a
fallback handler. This gets invoked through netdev_pick_tx();
fallback handler is currently __netdev_pick_tx() as most drivers
invoke this function within their customized implementation in
case for skbs that don't need any special handling. This fallback
handler can then be replaced on other call-sites with different
queue selection methods (e.g. in packet sockets, pktgen etc).

This also has the nice side-effect that __netdev_pick_tx() is
then only invoked from netdev_pick_tx() and export of that
function to modules can be undone.
