In many cases, drivers can filter things like beacons that will skew statistics reported by mac80211. To get correct statistics in these cases, call drivers to obtain statistics and let them override all values, filling values from mac80211 if the driver didn't provide them. Not all of them make sense for the driver to fill, so some are still always done by mac80211. Note that this doesn't currently allow a driver to say "I know this value is wrong, don't report it at all", or to sum it up with a mac80211 value (as could be useful for "dropped misc"), that can be added if it turns out to be needed. This also gets rid of the get_rssi() method as is can now be implemented using sta_statistics(). Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

When a station is removed, its statistics may be interesting to userspace, for example for further aggregation of statistics of all stations that ever connected to an AP. Introduce a new cfg80211_del_sta_sinfo() function (and make the cfg80211_del_sta() a static inline calling it) to allow passing a struct station_info along with this, and send the data in the nl80211 event message.

All of the survey data is (currently) per channel anyway, so having the word "channel" in the name does nothing. In the next patch I'll introduce global data to the survey, where the word "channel" is actually confusing. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

When hw acceleration is enabled, the GENERATE_IV or PUT_IV_SPACE flags only require headroom space. Therefore, the tailroom-needed counter can safely be decremented for most drivers. The older incarnation of this patch (ca34e3b5) assumed that the above holds true for all drivers. As reported by Christopher Chavez and researched by Christian Lamparter and Larry Finger, this isn't a valid assumption for p54 and cw1200. Drivers that still require tailroom for ICV/MIC even when HW encryption is enabled can use IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_RESERVE_TAILROOM to indicate it.

This reverts commit ca34e3b5. It turns out that the p54 and cw2100 drivers assume that there's tailroom even when they don't say they really need it. However, there's currently no way for them to explicitly say they do need it, so for now revert this. This fixes https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=90331.

dot11MulticastTransmittedFrameCount should be updated according to the DA, which might be different from A1. Checking A1 results in the counter being 0 in case of station, as to-DS data frames use A1 for the BSSID. This behaviour is defined in state machines, specifically in the sta_tx_dcf_3.1d(10) description of 802.11-2012.

The custom-reg handling function can currently only add flags to a given channel. This results in stale flags being left applied. In some cases a channel was disabled and even the orig_flags were changed to reflect this. Previously the API was designed for a single invocation before wiphy registration, so this didn't matter. The previous approach doesn't scale well to self-managed regulatory devices, particularly when a more permissive regdom is applied after a restrictive one.

Add a new regulatory flag that allows a driver to manage regdomain changes/updates for its own wiphy. A self-managed wiphys only employs regulatory information obtained from the FW and driver and does not use other cfg80211 sources like beacon-hints, country-code IEs and hints from other devices on the same system. Conversely, a self-managed wiphy does not share its regulatory hints with other devices in the system. If a system contains several devices, one or more of which are self-managed, there might be contradictory regulatory settings between them. Usage of flag is generally discouraged. Only use it if the FW/driver is incompatible with non-locally originated hints. A new API lets the driver send a complete regdomain, to be applied on its wiphy only. After a wiphy-specific regdomain change takes place, usermode will get a new type of change notification. The regulatory core also takes care enforce regulatory restrictions, in case some interfaces are on forbidden channels.

Instead of sending peer candidate events just once, send them as long as the peer remains in the LISTEN state in the peering state machine, when userspace is implementing the peering manager. Userspace may silence the events from a peer by progressing the state machine or by setting the link state to BLOCKED. Fixes the problem that a mesh peering process won't be fired again after the previous first peering trial fails due to like air propagation error if the peering is managed by user space such as wpa_supplicant. This patch works with another patch for wpa_supplicant described here which fires a peering process again triggered by the notice from kernel. http://lists.shmoo.com/pipermail/hostap/2014-November/031235.htmlSigned-off-by: Kenzoh Nishikawa <Kenzoh.Nishikawa@jp.sony.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

Since multicast frames are marked as no-ack, using IEEE80211_TX_STAT_ACK to check if they have been successfully transmitted by the driver is incorrect since a driver can choose to ignore transmission status for no-ack frames.
