Adding support to allow mesh HWMP to measure link metrics on unexercised
direct mesh path by sending some data frames to other mesh points which
are not currently selected as a primary traffic path but only 1 hop away.
The absence of the primary path to the chosen node makes it necessary to
apply some form of marking on a chosen packet stream so that the packets
can be properly steered to the selected node for testing, and not by the
regular mesh path lookup.

This interface allows the host driver to offload OWE processing
to user space. This intends to support OWE (Opportunistic Wireless
Encryption) AKM by the drivers that implement SME but rely on the
user space for the cryptographic/OWE processing in AP mode. Such
drivers are not capable of processing/deriving the DH IE.
A new NL80211 command - NL80211_CMD_UPDATE_OWE_INFO is introduced
to send the request/event between the host driver and user space.
Driver shall provide the OWE info (MAC address and DH IE) of
the peer to user space for cryptographic processing of the DH IE
through the event. Accordingly, the user space shall update the
OWE info/DH IE to the driver.
Following is the sequence in AP mode for OWE authentication.
Driver passes the OWE info obtained from the peer in the
Association Request to the user space through the event
cfg80211_update_owe_info_event. User space shall process the
OWE info received and generate new OWE info. This OWE info is
passed to the driver through NL80211_CMD_UPDATE_OWE_INFO
request. Driver eventually uses this OWE info to send the
Association Response to the peer.
This OWE info in the command interface carries the IEs that include
PMKID of the peer if the PMKSA is still valid or an updated DH IE
for generating a new PMKSA with the peer.

This commit adds the support to specify the RSSI thresholds per

specifies a single rssi_threshold across all the bands by
introducing the rssi_threshold_per_band. These per band rssi
thresholds are referred through NL80211_BAND_* (enum nl80211_band)
variables as attribute types. Such attributes/values per each
band are nested through NL80211_ATTR_SCHED_SCAN_MIN_RSSI.
These band specific rssi thresholds shall take precedence over
the current rssi_thold per match set.
Drivers indicate this support through
%NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_SCHED_SCAN_BAND_SPECIFIC_RSSI_THOLD.
These per band rssi attributes/values does not specify
"default RSSI filter" as done by
NL80211_SCHED_SCAN_MATCH_ATTR_RSSI to stay backward compatible.
That said, these per band rssi values have to be specified for

space by the host drivers in station mode. This commit extends
the same for the AP mode too.
Extend NL80211_ATTR_EXTERNAL_AUTH_SUPPORT to also claim the
support of external authentication from the user space in AP mode.
A new flag parameter is introduced in cfg80211_ap_settings to
intend the same while "start ap".

receive the authentication frames to / from the user space.
Host driver to indicate the flag NL80211_RXMGMT_FLAG_EXTERNAL_AUTH
while sending the authentication frame to the user space. This
intends to the user space that the driver wishes it to process
the authentication frame for certain protocols, though it had
initially advertised the support for SME functionality.
User space shall accordingly do the authentication and indicate
its final status through the command NL80211_CMD_EXTERNAL_AUTH.
Allow the command even if userspace doesn't include the attribute
NL80211_ATTR_SSID for AP interface.
Host driver shall continue with the association sequence and
indicate the STA connection status through cfg80211_new_sta.
To facilitate the host drivers in AP mode for matching the pmkid
by the stations during the association, NL80211_CMD_EXTERNAL_AUTH
is also enhanced to include the pmkid to drivers after
the authentication.

Add a new "peer measurement" API, that can be used to measure
certain things related to a peer. Right now, only implement
FTM (flight time measurement) over it, but the idea is that
it'll be extensible to also support measuring the necessary
things to calculate e.g. angle-of-arrival for WiGig.
The API is structured to have a generic list of peers and
channels to measure with/on, and then for each of those a
set of measurements (again, only FTM right now) to perform.
Results are sent to the requesting socket, including a final
complete message.
Closing the controlling netlink socket will abort a running
measurement.
v3:
- add a bit to report "final" for partial results
- remove list keeping etc. and just unicast out the results
to the requester (big code reduction ...)
- also send complete message unicast, and as a result
remove the multicast group
- separate out struct cfg80211_pmsr_ftm_request_peer
from struct cfg80211_pmsr_request_peer
- document timeout == 0 if no timeout
- disallow setting timeout nl80211 attribute to 0,
must not include attribute for no timeout
- make MAC address randomization optional
- change num bursts exponent default to 0 (1 burst, rather
rather than the old default of 15==don't care)
v4:
- clarify NL80211_ATTR_TIMEOUT documentation
v5:
- remove unnecessary nl80211 multicast/family changes
- remove partial results bit/flag, final is sufficient
- add max_bursts_exponent, max_ftms_per_burst to capability
- rename "frames per burst" -> "FTMs per burst"
v6:
- rename cfg80211_pmsr_free_wdev() to cfg80211_pmsr_wdev_down()

Add support for drivers to report the total number of MPDUs received
and the number of MPDUs received with an FCS error from a specific
peer. These counters will be incremented only when the TA of the
frame matches the MAC address of the peer irrespective of FCS
error.
It should be noted that the TA field in the frame might be corrupted
when there is an FCS error and TA matching logic would fail in such
cases. Hence, FCS error counter might not be fully accurate, but it can
provide help in detecting bad RX links in significant number of cases.
This FCS error counter without full accuracy can be used, e.g., to
trigger a kick-out of a connected client with a bad link in AP mode to
force such a client to roam to another AP.

The current implementation of cfg80211_rx_control_port assumed that the
caller could provide a contiguous region of memory for the control port
frame to be sent up to userspace. Unfortunately, many drivers produce
non-linear skbs, especially for data frames. This resulted in userspace
getting notified of control port frames with correct metadata (from
address, port, etc) yet garbage / nonsense contents, resulting in bad
handshakes, disconnections, etc.
mac80211 linearizes skbs containing management frames. But it didn't
seem worthwhile to do this for control port frames. Thus the signature
of cfg80211_rx_control_port was changed to take the skb directly.
nl80211 then takes care of obtaining control port frame data directly
from the (linear | non-linear) skb.
The caller is still responsible for freeing the skb,
cfg80211_rx_control_port does not take ownership of it.
