This extends the NL80211_CMD_ASSOCIATE event case to report
NL80211_ATTR_REQ_IE similarly to what is already done with the
NL80211_CMD_CONNECT events if the driver provides this information. In
practice, this adds (Re)Association Request frame information element
reporting to mac80211 drivers for the cases where user space SME is
used.
This provides more information for user space to figure out which
capabilities were negotiated for the association. For example, this can
be used to determine whether HT, VHT, or HE is used.

However, the cls_tcindex.c stuff was a bit more complex.
On the 'net' side, Cong is fixing several races and memory
leaks. Whilst on the 'net-next' side we have Vlad adding
the rtnl-ness support.
What I've decided to do, in order to resolve this, is revert the
conversion over to using a workqueue that Cong did, bringing us back
to pure RCU. I did it this way because I believe that either Cong's
races don't apply with have Vlad did things, or Cong will have to
implement the race fix slightly differently.

Jouni reports that in some cases it is possible that getting
disconnected (or stopping AP, after previous patches) results
in further operations hitting the window within the regulatory
core restoring the regdomain to the defaults. The reason for
this is that we have to call out to CRDA or otherwise do some
asynchronous work, and thus can't do the restore atomically.
However, we've previously seen all the data we need to do the
restore, so we can hang on to that data and use it later for
the restore. This makes the whole thing happen within a single
locked section and thus atomic.
However, we can't *always* do this - there are unfortunately
cases where the restore needs to re-request, because this is
also used (abused?) as an error recovery process, so make the
new behaviour optional and only use it when doing a regular
restore as described above.

Rather than always iterating elements from frames with pure

Then, add the element iteration macros
* for_each_element
* for_each_element_id
* for_each_element_extid
which take, as their first 'argument', such a structure and
iterate through a given u8 array interpreting it as elements.
While at it and since we'll need it, also add
* for_each_subelement
* for_each_subelement_id
* for_each_subelement_extid
which instead of taking data/length just take an outer element
and use its data/datalen.
Also add for_each_element_completed() to determine if any of
the loops above completed, i.e. it was able to parse all of

Host drivers may offload authentication to the user space
through the commit ("cfg80211: Authentication offload to
user space in AP mode").
This interface can be used to implement SAE by having the
userspace do authentication/PMKID key derivation and driver
handle the association.
A step ahead, this interface can get further optimized if the
PMKID is passed to the host driver and also have it respond to
the association request by the STA on a valid PMKID.
This commit enables the userspace to pass the PMKID to the host
drivers through the set/del pmksa operations in AP mode.
Set/Del pmksa is now restricted to STA/P2P client mode only and
thus the drivers might not expect them in any other(AP) mode.
This commit also introduces a feature flag
NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_AP_PMKSA_CACHING (johannes: renamed) to
maintain the backward compatibility of such an expectation by
the host drivers. These operations are allowed in AP mode only
when the drivers advertize the capability through this flag.

commit 40cbfa9021 ("cfg80211/nl80211: Optional authentication
offload to userspace")' introduced authentication offload to user
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".
Host driver to use NL80211_CMD_FRAME interface to transmit and
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.
This pmkid can also be used in the STA mode to include in the
association request.
Also modify nl80211_external_auth to not mandate SSID in AP mode.

There was no such capability advertisement from the driver and thus the
current user space has to assume the driver to support all the AKMs. While
that may be the case with some drivers (e.g., mac80211-based ones), there
are cfg80211-based drivers that implement SME and have constraints on
which AKMs can be supported (e.g., such drivers may need an update to
support SAE AKM using NL80211_CMD_EXTERNAL_AUTH). Allow such drivers to
advertise the exact set of supported AKMs so that user space tools can
determine what network profile options should be allowed to be configured.

Fix this by referring to the correct attribute. Since this

Currently radar detection and corresponding channel switch is handled
at the AP device. STA ignores these detected radar events since the
radar signal can be seen mostly by the AP as well. But in scenarios where
a radar signal is seen only at STA, notifying this event to the AP which
can trigger a channel switch can be useful.
Stations can report such radar events autonomously through Spectrum
management (Measurement Report) action frame to its AP. The userspace on
processing the report can notify the kernel with the use of the added
NL80211_CMD_NOTIFY_RADAR to indicate the detected event and inturn adding

This function was modified to support the information element extension
case (WLAN_EID_EXTENSION) in a manner that would result in an infinite
loop when going through set of IEs that include WLAN_EID_RIC_DATA and
contain an IE that is in the after_ric array. The only place where this
can currently happen is in mac80211 ieee80211_send_assoc() where
ieee80211_ie_split_ric() is called with after_ric[].
This can be triggered by valid data from user space nl80211
association/connect request (i.e., requiring GENL_UNS_ADMIN_PERM). The
only known application having an option to include WLAN_EID_RIC_DATA in
these requests is wpa_supplicant and it had a bug that prevented this
specific contents from being used (and because of that, not triggering
this kernel bug in an automated test case ap_ft_ric) and now that this
bug is fixed, it has a workaround to avoid this kernel issue.
WLAN_EID_RIC_DATA is currently used only for testing purposes, so this
does not cause significant harm for production use cases.

When peering is in userspace, some implementations may want to control
which peers are accepted based on RSSI in addition to the information
elements being sent today. Add signal level so that info is available
to clients.

When userspace is controlling mesh routing, it may have better
knowledge about whether a mesh STA is connected to a mesh
gate than the kernel mpath table. Add dot11MeshConnectedToMeshGate
to the mesh config so that such applications can explicitly
signal that a mesh STA is connected to a gate, which will then
be advertised in the beacon.
