If the driver advertises NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_SCAN_FREQ_KHZ
userspace can omit NL80211_ATTR_SCAN_FREQUENCIES in favor
of an NL80211_ATTR_SCAN_FREQ_KHZ. To get scan results in
KHz userspace must also set the
NL80211_SCAN_FLAG_FREQ_KHZ.
This lets nl80211 remain compatible with older userspaces
while not requring and sending redundant (and potentially
incorrect) scan frequency sets.

cfg80211 recently gained the ability to understand a
frequency offset component in KHz. Expose this in nl80211
through the new attributes NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FREQ_OFFSET,
NL80211_FREQUENCY_ATTR_OFFSET,
NL80211_ATTR_CENTER_FREQ1_OFFSET, and
NL80211_BSS_FREQUENCY_OFFSET.
These add support to send and receive a KHz offset
component with the following NL80211 commands:
- NL80211_CMD_FRAME
- NL80211_CMD_GET_SCAN
- NL80211_CMD_AUTHENTICATE
- NL80211_CMD_ASSOCIATE
- NL80211_CMD_CONNECT
Along with any other command which takes a chandef, ie:
- NL80211_CMD_SET_CHANNEL
- NL80211_CMD_SET_WIPHY
- NL80211_CMD_START_AP
- NL80211_CMD_RADAR_DETECT
- NL80211_CMD_NOTIFY_RADAR
- NL80211_CMD_CHANNEL_SWITCH
- NL80211_JOIN_IBSS

- NL80211_CMD_JOIN_OCB
- NL80211_CMD_JOIN_MESH
- NL80211_CMD_TDLS_CHANNEL_SWITCH
If the driver advertises a band containing channels with
frequency offset, it must also verify support for
frequency offset channels in its cfg80211 ops, or return
an error.

Current rule for applying TID configuration for specific peer looks overly
complicated. No need to reject new TID configuration when override flag is
specified. Another call with the same TID configuration, but without
override flag, allows to apply new configuration anyway.
Use the same approach as for the 'all peers' case: if override flag is

Drivers that trigger roaming need to know the lifetime of the configured
PMKSA for deciding whether to trigger the full or PMKSA cache based
authentication. The configured PMKSA is invalid after the PMK lifetime
has expired and must not be used after that and the STA needs to
disassociate if the PMK expires. Hence the STA is expected to refresh
the PMK with a full authentication before this happens (e.g., when
reassociating to a new BSS the next time or by performing EAPOL
reauthentication depending on the AKM) to avoid unnecessary
disconnection.
The PMK reauthentication threshold is the percentage of the PMK lifetime
value and indicates to the driver to trigger a full authentication roam
(without PMKSA caching) after the reauthentication threshold time, but
before the PMK timer has expired. Authentication methods like SAE need
to be able to generate a new PMKSA entry without having to force a
disconnection after this threshold timeout. If no roaming occurs between
the reauthentication threshold time and PMK lifetime expiration,
disassociation is still forced.
The new attributes for providing these values correspond to the dot11
MIB variables dot11RSNAConfigPMKLifetime and
dot11RSNAConfigPMKReauthThreshold.
This type of functionality is already available in cases where user
space component is in control of roaming. This commit extends that same
capability into cases where parts or all of this functionality is
offloaded to the driver.

Sometimes, userspace is able to detect that a peer silently lost its
state (like, if the peer reboots). wpa_supplicant does this for IBSS-RSN
by registering for auth/deauth frames, but when it detects this, it is
only able to remove the encryption keys of the peer and close its port.
However, the kernel also hold other state about the station, such as BA
sessions, probe response parameters and the like. They also need to be
resetted correctly.
This patch adds the NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_DEL_IBSS_STA feature flag
indicating the driver accepts deleting stations in IBSS mode, which
should send a deauth and reset the state of the station, just like in
mesh point mode.

If the nl80211 control port is used before this patch, pre-auth frames
(0x88c7) are send to userspace uncoditionally. While this enables userspace
to only use nl80211 on the station side, it is not always useful for APs.
Furthermore, pre-auth frames are ordinary data frames and not related to
the control port. Therefore it should for example be possible for pre-auth
frames to be bridged onto a wired network on AP side without touching
userspace.
For backwards compatibility to code already using pre-auth over nl80211,
this patch adds a feature flag to disable this behavior, while it remains
enabled by default. An additional ext. feature flag is added to detect this
from userspace.
Thanks to Jouni for pointing out, that pre-auth frames should be handled as
ordinary data frames.

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.

Commit ab4dfa2053 ("cfg80211: Allow drivers to advertise supported AKM

This needs an enhancement to advertize the AKM support per interface type,
specifically for the cfg80211-based drivers that implement SME and use
different mechanisms to support the AKM's for each interface type (e.g.,
the support for SAE, OWE AKM's take different paths for such drivers on
STA/AP mode).
This commit aims the same and enhances the earlier mechanism of advertizing
the AKMs per wiphy. Add new nl80211 attributes and data structure to
provide supported AKMs per interface type to userspace.
the AKMs advertized in akm_suites are default capabilities if not
advertized for a specific interface type in iftype_akm_suites.

Instead of just having an airtime flag in debugfs, turn AQL into a proper
NL80211_EXT_FEATURE, so drivers can turn it on when they are ready, and so
we also expose the presence of the feature to userspace.
This also has the effect of flipping the default, so drivers have to opt in
to using AQL instead of getting it by default with TXQs. To keep
functionality the same as pre-patch, we set this feature for ath10k (which
is where it is needed the most).
While we're at it, split out the debugfs interface so AQL gets its own
per-station debugfs file instead of using the 'airtime' file.
[Johannes:]
This effectively disables AQL for iwlwifi, where it fixes a number of
issues:
* TSO in iwlwifi is causing underflows and associated warnings in AQL
* HE (802.11ax) rates aren't reported properly so at HE rates, AQL could
never have a valid estimate (it'd use 6 Mbps instead of up to 2400!)

up selecting a different BSS, it can modify these IEs accordingly (e.g.

driver ends up selecting BSS2 with different PMKSA cache entry. RSNIE

NL80211_BAND_ATTR_EDMG_BW_CONFIG - represent the channel bandwidth

Following is the sequence in AP mode for OWE authentication.
Driver passes the OWE info obtained from the peer in the

cfg80211_update_owe_info_event. User space shall process the
