this indicates legacy bitrate for the last TX rate (and

Because we can miss AP wakeup (beacon) while scanning other channels,
it's better go into wakeup state and inform the AP of that upon
returning to the operating channel, rather than staying asleep and
waiting for the next TIM indicating traffic for us.
This saves precious time, especially when we only have 200ms inter-
scan period for monitoring the active connection.

The current API (which lets the driver turn on/off per vif directly) has a
number of limitations:
- it does not deal with AP_VLAN
- conditions for enabling (no tkip, no monitor) are only checked at
add_interface time
- no way to indicate 4-addr support
In order to address this, store offload flags in struct ieee80211_vif
(easy to extend for decap offload later). mac80211 initially sets the enable
flag, but gives the driver a chance to modify it before its settings are
applied. In addition to the .add_interface op, a .update_vif_offload op is
introduced, which can be used for runtime changes.
If a driver can't disable encap offload at runtime, or if it has some extra
limitations, it can simply override the flags within those ops.
Support for encap offload with 4-address mode interfaces can be enabled
by setting a flag from .add_interface or .update_vif_offload.

AQL does not take into account that most HT/VHT/HE traffic is A-MPDU aggregated.
Because of that, the per-packet airtime overhead is vastly overestimated.
Improve it by assuming an average aggregation length of 16 for non-legacy

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]
sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible array
members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of code in
which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously applied to
zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances may be hiding
some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member conversions) will also
help to get completely rid of those sorts of issues.
This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

Almost all drivers below cfg80211 get the API wrong (except for
cfg80211) and are unable to cope with multiple registrations for
the same frame type, which is valid due to the match filter.
This seems to indicate the API is wrong, and we should maintain
the full information in cfg80211 instead of the drivers.
Change the API to no longer inform the driver about individual
registrations and unregistrations, but rather every time about
the entire state of the entire wiphy and single wdev, whenever
it may have changed. This also simplifies the code in cfg80211
as it no longer has to track exactly what was unregistered and
can free things immediately.

When using control port over nl80211 in AP mode with
pre-authentication, APs need to forward frames to other
APs defined by their MAC address. Before this patch,
pre-auth frames reaching user space over nl80211 control
port have no longer any information about the dest attached,
which can be used for forwarding to a controller or injecting
the frame back to a ethernet interface over a AF_PACKET
socket.
Analog problems exist, when forwarding pre-auth frames from
AP -> STA.
This patch therefore adds the NL80211_ATTR_DST_MAC and
NL80211_ATTR_SRC_MAC attributes to provide more context
information when forwarding.
The respective arguments are optional on tx and included on rx.
Therefore unaware existing software is not affected.
Software which wants to detect this feature, can do so
by checking against:

This patch adds a new transmit path for hardware that supports 802.11
encapsulation offloading. In those cases 802.3 frames get passed
directly to the driver allowing the hardware to handle the encapsulation.
Some features such as monitor mode and TKIP would break when encapsulation
offloading is enabled. If any of these get enabled, the code will alwyas
fallback to the normal sw encapsulation data path.
The patch defines a secondary netdev_ops struct that the device gets
assigned if 802.11 encap support is available and enabled. The driver
needs to enable the support on a per vif basis if it finds that all
pre-reqs are meet.

Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
In order for the Fq_CoDel algorithm integrated in mac80211 layer to operate
effectively to control excessive queueing latency, the CoDel algorithm
requires an accurate measure of how long packets stays in the queue, AKA
sojourn time. The sojourn time measured at the mac80211 layer doesn't
include queueing latency in the lower layer (firmware/hardware) and CoDel
expects lower layer to have a short queue. However, most 802.11ac chipsets
offload tasks such TX aggregation to firmware or hardware, thus have a deep
lower layer queue.
Without a mechanism to control the lower layer queue size, packets only
stay in mac80211 layer transiently before being sent to firmware queue.
As a result, the sojourn time measured by CoDel in the mac80211 layer is
almost always lower than the CoDel latency target, hence CoDel does little
to control the latency, even when the lower layer queue causes excessive
latency.
The Byte Queue Limits (BQL) mechanism is commonly used to address the
similar issue with wired network interface. However, this method cannot be
applied directly to the wireless network interface. "Bytes" is not a
suitable measure of queue depth in the wireless network, as the data rate
can vary dramatically from station to station in the same network, from a
few Mbps to over Gbps.
This patch implements an Airtime-based Queue Limit (AQL) to make CoDel work
effectively with wireless drivers that utilized firmware/hardware
offloading. AQL allows each txq to release just enough packets to the lower
layer to form 1-2 large aggregations to keep hardware fully utilized and
retains the rest of the frames in mac80211 layer to be controlled by the
CoDel algorithm.

Felix recently added code to calculate airtime of packets to the mt76
driver. Import this into mac80211 so we can use it for airtime queue limit
calculations.
The airtime.c file is copied verbatim from the mt76 driver, and adjusted to
be usable in mac80211. This involves:
- Switching to mac80211 data structures.
- Adding support for 160 MHz channels and HE mode.
- Moving the symbol and duration calculations around a bit to avoid
rounding with the higher rates and longer symbol times used for HE rates.
The per-rate TX rate calculation is also split out to its own function so
it can be used directly for the AQL calculations later.

When we expire an inactive station, try to send it a deauth. This
helps if it's actually still around, and just has issues with
beacon distribution (or we do), and it will not also remove us.
Then, if we have shared state, this may not be reset properly,
causing problems; for example, we saw a case where aggregation
sessions weren't removed properly (due to the TX start being
offloaded to firmware and it relying on deauth for stop), causing
a lot of traffic to get lost due to the SN reset after remove/add
of the peer.

HE allows peers to negotiate the aggregation fragmentation level to be used
during transmission. The level can be 1-3. The Ext element is added behind
the ADDBA request inside the action frame. The responder will then reply
with the same level or a lower one if the requested one is not supported.
This patch only handles the negotiation part as the ADDBA frames get passed
to the ATH11k firmware, which does the rest of the magic for us aswell as
generating the requests.
