Avinash Patil 6ccea75e70 mwifiex: fix invalid access of PCIe RxBD ring buffer descriptor
This patch fixes invalid access of RxBD ring buffer descriptor's
length and flag inside PCIe send_data_complete() routine. We are
supposed to modify TxBD buffer descriptor's length and flag here.

Amitkumar Karwar 7532c7d013 mwifiex: correction in status codes used for association failure
When AP responds with appropriate status code, we forward that
code correctly to cfg80211. But sometimes when there is no
response from AP, our firmware uses proprietary status codes.
We will map authentication timeout to WLAN_STATUS_AUTH_TIMEOUT
and other proprietary codes to WLAN_STATUS_UNSPECIFIED_FAILURE.

Luis R. Rodriguez 0c0280bd0b wireless: make the reg_notifier() void
The reg_notifier()'s return value need not be checked
as it is only supposed to do post regulatory work and
that should never fail. Any behaviour to regulatory
that needs to be considered before cfg80211 does work
to a driver should be specified by using the already
existing flags, the reg_notifier() just does post
processing should it find it needs to.

Also make lbs_reg_notifier static.

Amitkumar Karwar d7b9c5204e mwifiex: update config_bands during infra association
Currently "adapter->config_bands" is updated during infra
association only if channel is provided by user in "iw connect"
command. config_bands is used while preparing association
request to calculate supported rates by intersecting our rates
with the rates advertised by AP.

There is corner case in which we include zero rates in
supported rates TLV based on previous IBSS network history,
which leads to association failure.

This patch fixes the problem by correctly updating config_bands.

Johannes Berg 42d97a599e cfg80211: remove remain-on-channel channel type
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.

Avinash Patil 47411a06c0 mwifiex: add multi-queue support
This patch adds support for multiple TX queues inside mwifiex
driver. Four different queues according to WMM access categories
are defined for each virtual interface. When a packet is
received from netdev for transmission, tx pending count for
particular queue is incremented and if tx pending count has
reached upper water-mark, this queue is stopped instead of
stopping all queues. Similarly when a packet is successfully
transmitted from device, tx pending count is decremented per
queue and if pending count falls below lower water-mark, queue
operations are again resumed. This ensures that not all
tranmission is blocked if traffic with particular TOS value
suddenly increases.

Also wake all queues after association/IBSS_join/uAP_BSS_start
to enable traffic on all queues.

Bing Zhao f575f65897 mwifiex: use sizeof(array) to print_hex_dump_bytes
DBG_CMD_NUM is the number of commands, not the actual bytes of
data for printing.

Also remove the duplicated DBG_CMD_NUM definition.

Arend van Spriel 04b2312a68 wireless: drivers: make use of WLAN_EID_VENDOR_SPECIFIC
The include file linux/ieee80211.h contains three definitions for
the same thing in enum ieee80211_eid due to historic changes:

/* Information Element IDs */
enum ieee80211_eid {
    :
    WLAN_EID_WPA = 221,
    WLAN_EID_GENERIC = 221,
    WLAN_EID_VENDOR_SPECIFIC = 221,
    :
};

The standard refers to this as "vendor specific" element so the
other two definitions are better not used. This patch changes the
wireless drivers to use one definition, ie. WLAN_EID_VENDOR_SPECIFIC.

Johannes Berg b292219fa5 wireless: use OR operation to set wiphy features
The next patch will introduce a flag that is set
by default in cfg80211 so drivers and mac80211
need to use |= to set features they have so that
they don't clear the already-set feature.

We could set the flag in wiphy_register() instead
of wiphy_new() to avoid this patch, but then the
drivers couldn't *unset* flags they don't want to
use even though the implementation is generic.

Amitkumar Karwar 8cc1d52390 mwifiex: update cfg80211 with correct reason code when connection is lost
Driver gets LINK_LOST, DEAUTHENTICATED and DISASSOCIATED events
from firmware when connection is lost in different scenarios.
Currently we are using common code WLAN_REASON_DEAUTH_LEAVING
for these cases.

This patch adds support to parse an actual reason code from
firmware event body and send it to cfg80211.
WLAN_REASON_DEAUTH_LEAVING code is used if deauth is initiated
by our device.
