2013-12-19cfg80211: Add support for QoS mappingKyeyoon Park
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).

2013-12-02cfg80211: aggregate mgmt_tx parameters into a structAndrei Otcheretianski
Change cfg80211 and mac80211 to use cfg80211_mgmt_tx_params struct to aggregate parameters for mgmt_tx functions. This makes the functions' signatures less clumsy and allows less painful parameters extension.

2013-04-22cfg80211: introduce critical protocol indication from user-spaceArend van Spriel
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.

2013-03-06cfg80211/mac80211: disconnect on suspendStanislaw Gruszka
If possible that after suspend, cfg80211 will receive request to disconnect what require action on interface that was removed during suspend. Problem can manifest itself by various warnings similar to below one: WARNING: at net/mac80211/driver-ops.h:12 ieee80211_bss_info_change_notify+0x2f9/0x300 [mac80211]() wlan0: Failed check-sdata-in-driver check, flags: 0x4 Call Trace: [<c043e0b3>] warn_slowpath_fmt+0x33/0x40 [<f83707c9>] ieee80211_bss_info_change_notify+0x2f9/0x300 [mac80211] [<f83a660a>] ieee80211_recalc_ps_vif+0x2a/0x30 [mac80211] [<f83a6706>] ieee80211_set_disassoc+0xf6/0x500 [mac80211] [<f83a9441>] ieee80211_mgd_deauth+0x1f1/0x280 [mac80211] [<f8381b36>] ieee80211_deauth+0x16/0x20 [mac80211] [<f8261e70>] cfg80211_mlme_down+0x70/0xc0 [cfg80211] [<f8264de1>] __cfg80211_disconnect+0x1b1/0x1d0 [cfg80211] To fix the problem disconnect from any associated network before suspend. User space is responsible to establish connection again after resume. This basically need to be done by user space anyway, because associated stations can go away during suspend (for example NetworkManager disconnects on suspend and connect on resume by default). Patch also handle situation when driver refuse to suspend with wowlan configured and try to suspend again without it.

2013-03-06cfg80211: Extend support for IEEE 802.11r Fast BSS TransitionJouni Malinen
Add NL80211_CMD_UPDATE_FT_IES to support update of FT IEs to the WLAN driver and NL80211_CMD_FT_EVENT to send FT events from the WLAN driver. 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). These changes allow FT to be supported with drivers that use an internal SME instead of user space option (like FT implementation in wpa_supplicant with mac80211-based drivers).

2013-01-25cfg80211/nl80211: add API for MAC address ACLsVasanthakumar Thiagarajan
Add API to enable drivers to implement MAC address based access control in AP/P2P GO mode. Capable drivers advertise this capability by setting the maximum number of MAC addresses in such a list in wiphy->max_acl_mac_addrs. An initial ACL may be given to the NL80211_CMD_START_AP command and/or changed later with NL80211_CMD_SET_MAC_ACL. Black- and whitelists are supported, but not simultaneously.

2012-11-26cfg80211: pass a channel definition structJohannes Berg
Instead of passing a channel pointer and channel type to all functions and driver methods, pass a new channel definition struct. Right now, this struct contains just the control channel and channel type, but for VHT this will change. Also, add a small inline cfg80211_get_chandef_type() so that drivers don't need to use the _type field of the new structure all the time, which will change.

2012-11-26cfg80211: remove remain-on-channel channel typeJohannes Berg
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.

2012-10-30cfg80211: allow per interface TX power settingJohannes Berg
The TX power setting is currently per wiphy (hardware device) but with multi-channel capabilities that doesn't make much sense any more. Allow drivers (and mac80211) to advertise support for per-interface TX power configuration. When the TX power is configured for the wiphy, the wdev will be NULL and the driver can still handle that, but when a wdev is given the TX power can be set only for that wdev now.
