* cfg80211: allow the user space to change current NAN configurationAyala Beker2016-09-301-0/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | Some NAN configuration paramaters may change during the operation of the NAN device. For example, a user may want to update master preference value when the device gets plugged/unplugged to the power. Add API that allows to do so.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | A NAN function can be either publish, subscribe or follow up. Make all the necessary verifications and just pass the request to the driver.

* cfg80211: add start / stop NAN commandsAyala Beker2016-09-301-0/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows user space to start/stop NAN interface. A NAN interface is like P2P device in a few aspects: it doesn't have a netdev associated to it. Add the new interface type and prevent operations that can't be executed on NAN interface like scan. Define several attributes that may be configured by user space when starting NAN functionality (master preference and dual band operation) Signed-off-by: Andrei Otcheretianski <andrei.otcheretianski@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Luca Coelho <luciano.coelho@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
* cfg80211: remove enum ieee80211_bandJohannes Berg2016-04-121-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | This enum is already perfectly aliased to enum nl80211_band, and the only reason for it is that we get IEEE80211_NUM_BANDS out of it. There's no really good reason to not declare the number of bands in nl80211 though, so do that and remove the cfg80211 one. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

* cfg80211: allow mgmt_frame_register callback to sleepJohannes Berg2015-07-171-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This callback is currently not allowed to sleep, which makes it more difficult to implement proper driver methods in mac80211 than it has to be. Instead of doing asynchronous work here in mac80211, make it possible for the callback to sleep by doing some asynchronous work in cfg80211. This also enables improvements to other drivers, like ath6kl, that would like to sleep in this callback. While at it, also fix the code to call the driver on the implicit unregistration when an interface is removed, and do that also when a P2P-Device wdev is destroyed (otherwise we leak the structs.)

* cfg80211: pass name_assign_type to rdev_add_virtual_intf()Tom Gundersen2015-03-301-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This will expose in /sys whether the ifname of a device is set by userspace or generated by the kernel. The latter kind (wlanX, etc) is not deterministic, so userspace needs to rename these devices to names that are guaranteed to stay the same between reboots. The former, however should never be renamed, so userspace needs to be able to reliably tell the difference.

* cfg80211: introduce TDLS channel switch commandsArik Nemtsov2014-11-191-0/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce commands to initiate and cancel TDLS channel-switching. Once TDLS channel-switching is started, the lower level driver is responsible for continually initiating channel-switch operations and returning to the base (AP) channel to listen for beacons from time to time. Upon cancellation of the channel-switch all communication between the relevant TDLS peers will continue on the base channel.

* cfg80211: 802.11p OCB mode handlingRostislav Lisovy2014-11-041-0/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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: Rostislav Lisovy <rostislav.lisovy@fel.cvut.cz> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

* cfg80211: add WMM traffic stream APIJohannes Berg2014-09-111-0/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Add nl80211 and driver API to validate, add and delete traffic streams with appropriate settings. The API calls for userspace doing the action frame handshake with the peer, and then allows only to set up the parameters in the driver. To avoid setting up a session only to tear it down again, the validate API is provided, but the real usage later can still fail so userspace must be prepared for that.

* cfg80211: make ethtool the driver's responsibilityJohannes Berg2014-06-231-48/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, cfg80211 tries to implement ethtool, but that doesn't really scale well, with all the different operations. Make the lower-level driver responsible for it, which currently only has an effect on mac80211. It will similarly not scale well at that level though, since mac80211 also has many drivers. To cleanly implement this in mac80211, introduce a new file and move some code to appropriate places. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

* cfg80211: Pass TDLS peer capability information in tdls_mgmtSunil Dutt Undekari2014-02-201-3/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While framing the TDLS Setup Confirmation frame, the driver needs to know if the TDLS peer is VHT/HT/WMM capable and thus shall construct the VHT/HT operation / WMM parameter elements accordingly. Supplicant determines if the TDLS peer is VHT/HT/WMM capable based on the presence of the respective IEs in the received TDLS Setup Response frame. The host driver should not need to parse the received TDLS Response frame and thus, should be able to rely on the supplicant to indicate the capability of the peer through additional flags while transmitting the TDLS Setup Confirmation frame through tdls_mgmt operations.

* cfg80211: Add support for QoS mappingKyeyoon Park2013-12-191-0/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows QoS mapping from external networks to be implemented as defined in IEEE Std 802.11-2012, 10.24.9. APs can use this to advertise DSCP ranges and exceptions for mapping frames to a specific UP over Wi-Fi. The payload of the QoS Map Set element (IEEE Std 802.11-2012, 8.4.2.97) is sent to the driver through the new NL80211_ATTR_QOS_MAP attribute to configure the local behavior either on the AP (based on local configuration) or on a station (based on information received from the AP).

* cfg80211: introduce critical protocol indication from user-spaceArend van Spriel2013-04-221-1/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some protocols need a more reliable connection to complete successful in reasonable time. This patch adds a user-space API to indicate the wireless driver that a critical protocol is about to commence and when it is done, using nl80211 primitives NL80211_CMD_CRIT_PROTOCOL_START and NL80211_CRIT_PROTOCOL_STOP. There can be only on critical protocol session started per registered cfg80211 device. The driver can support this by implementing the cfg80211 callbacks .crit_proto_start() and .crit_proto_stop(). Examples of protocols that can benefit from this are DHCP, EAPOL, APIPA. Exactly how the link can/should be made more reliable is up to the driver. Things to consider are avoid scanning, no multi-channel operations, and alter coexistence schemes.

This will carry the target AP's MAC address along with the relevant Information Elements. This event is used to report received FT IEs (MDIE, FTIE, RSN IE, TIE, RICIE).

Right now, this struct contains just the control channel and channel type, but for VHT this will change.

* cfg80211: remove remain-on-channel channel typeJohannes Berg2012-11-261-12/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As mwifiex (and mac80211 in the software case) are the only drivers actually implementing remain-on-channel with channel type, userspace can't be relying on it. This is the case, as it's used only for P2P operations right now. Rather than adding a flag to tell userspace whether or not it can actually rely on it, simplify all the code by removing the ability to use different channel types. Leave only the validation of the attribute, so that if we extend it again later (with the needed capability flag), it can't break userspace sending invalid data.
