2014-11-19mac80211: introduce TDLS channel switch opsArik Nemtsov
Implement the cfg80211 TDLS channel switch ops and introduce new mac80211 ones for low-level drivers. Verify low-level driver support for the new ops when using the relevant wiphy feature bit. Also verify the peer supports channel switching before passing the command down. Add a new STA flag to track the off-channel state with the TDLS peer and make sure to cancel the channel-switch if the peer STA is unexpectedly removed.

2014-11-19mac80211: track AP and peer STA TDLS chan-switch supportArik Nemtsov
The AP or peer can prohibit TDLS channel switch via a bit in the extended capabilities IE. Parse the IE and track this bit. Set an appropriate STA flag if both the AP and peer STA support TDLS channel-switching. Add the new STA flag and the missing TDLS_INITIATOR to debugfs.

2014-11-04mac80211: 802.11p OCB mode supportRostislav Lisovy
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.

2014-11-04cfg80211: 802.11p OCB mode handlingRostislav Lisovy
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.

2014-10-22mac80211: add WMM admission control supportJohannes Berg
Use the currently existing APIs between mac80211 and the low level driver to implement WMM admission control. The low level driver needs to report the media time used by each transmitted packet in ieee80211_tx_status. Based on that information, mac80211 will modify the QoS parameters of the admission controlled Access Category when the limit is reached. Once the original QoS parameters can be restored, mac80211 will do so. One issue with this approach is that management frames will also erroneously be downgraded, but the upside is that the implementation is simple. In the future, it can be extended to driver- or device-based implementations that are better.

If the remaining time in the current roc is not long enough, mac80211 adds the new roc right after it (if they have similar params). However, in case of multiple rocs, the "next roc" is not considered, resulting in multiple rocs, each one with its own duration.

2014-06-23mac80211: introduce refcount for queue_stop_reasonsLuciano Coelho
Sometimes different vifs may be stopping the queues for the same reason (e.g. when several interfaces are performing a channel switch). Instead of using a bitmask for the reasons, use an integer that holds a refcount instead. In order to keep it backwards compatible, introduce a boolean in some functions that tell us whether the queue stopping should be refcounted or not.

2014-05-06mac80211: fix CSA tx queue stoppingMichal Kazior
It was possible for tx queues to be stuck stopped if AP CSA finalization failed. In that case neither stop_ap nor do_stop woke the queues up. This means it was impossible to perform tx at all until driver was reloaded or a successful CSA was performed later. It was possible to solve this in a simpler manner however this is more robust and future proof (having multi-vif CSA in mind). New sdata->csa_block_tx is introduced to keep track of which interfaces requested tx to be blocked for CSA. This is required because mac80211 stops all tx queues for that purpose. This means queues must be awoken only when last tx-blocking CSA interface is finished. It is still possible to have tx queues stopped after CSA failure but as soon as offending interfaces are stopped from userspace (stop_ap or ifdown) tx queues are woken up properly.
