Luciano Coelho 50cc9574d6 iwlwifi: mvm: refactor iwl_mvm_switch_vif_chanctx to support other modes
Currently we only support the CHANCTX_SWMODE_SWAP_CONTEXTS mode, but
we need to support other modes as well.  Spin a new function off in
order to make it easier to support other modes.

Luciano Coelho 6b20d77437 iwlwifi: mvm: only save csa_vif in AP/GO mode
We only need the csa_vif in AP/GO modes, and assigning for other
interfaces may cause problems, because csa_vif is never cleared.  To
prevent this, only assign the value if the iftype is
NL80211_IFTYPE_AP.  Use a switch to do this, even though, for now,
only the AP interface type is handled, because soon other interface
types will be added as well.

Additionally, convert the WARN() in the error case when a
channel-switch is already running to WARN_ONCE().

Luciano Coelho f028905c20 iwlwifi: mvm: use new pre_channel_switch op instead of channel_switch_beacon
A new callback has been added to prepare the device for a channel
switch.  Use the new callback instead of the old channel_switch_beacon
operation.

This makes it possible to remove the channel_switch_beacon operation

Maintain a TDLS channel-switch state and update it according to
notifications from FW and timeouts. Explicitly check all state
transitions are valid.
When switching is initiated by mac80211, use a delayed work to
periodically reschedule it from iwlwifi.
Give the FW mac80211 generated TDLS channel-switch request/response
templates. It will change appropriate values (switch timings) and Tx
them at appropriate times.

Enable the channel switch wiphy capability bit when the FW supports it.

Arik Nemtsov cbd2ae2da6 iwlwifi: mvm: disconnect TDLS peers on reconfig
When TDLS peers are present the FW will send packets on a dedicated
TID vs. the peer when performing TDLS channel-switches. The driver
configures the TID on connection to the peer and the FW is responsible
for maintaining the state of QoS seqno and PN/IV for encryption.

If the FW asserts, the driver cannot correctly reconfigure the starting
seqno/PN to the reloaded FW, thus forcing us to reconnect the peer.

Johannes Berg ba3943b094 iwlwifi: mvm: add WEP RX hardware offload support
In the original driver, we decided to not implement WEP RX hardware
offload because of a quirk with the firmware API - it allows setting
global WEP keys that then get used for all virtual interfaces, which
is clearly wrong if more than one exists, and it allows setting per-
station keys but then separates multicast and unicast keys.

In order to implement WEP RX hardware offload, work around these
limitations by uploading each WEP key twice, once as multicast and
once as unicast, but point them both to the same key slot (offset)
and use the same key material so the slot overwrite on the second
upload doesn't actually change anything. Upon removal, also remove
the key twice so the station no longer references it.

Emmanuel Grumbach 522713c81e iwlwifi: pcie: properly reset the device
We were toggling the wrong bit when we reset the device,
fix that. Moreover, since the reset can take time, we need
to wait before we set the rfkill interrupt. Not doing so
can be racy since the driver is enabling the rfkill
interrupt while the device is resetting which will clear
all the registers including the CSR_INT_MASK.
This can basically lead to a situation where we don't
enable the rfkill interrupt. If that happens, the user will
not be able to re-enable the device when de-asserting
rfkill.

Avri Altman 886ca9f5dd iwlwifi: mvm: New skip over dtim policy
Our firmware scheduler suffers from false wake-up on 500 time units.
that is if the dtim interval exceeds 500 time units, the fw wakes up,
understands that the next wake-up event is still ahead, and if this event
is more than 10msec in the future - goes back to sleep, otherwise - stay
awake.  For example, say that the beacon interval is 101 and the dtim
period is 5, the dtim interval is 101 x 5 = 505, and we will stay awake
for those extra 5msec.
So on the one hand the dtim interval should be congruent to the beacon
interval times the dtim period, and on the other should minimize
the false wake-ups event.
This change applies only to D0/D3 power modes.

Felix Fietkau 75769c80e3 mac80211: minstrel_ht: add a small optimization to minstrel_aggr_check
Check the queue mapping earlier, skb->queue_mapping is more likely than
skb->data to still be in d-cache.

Johannes Berg f815e2b3c0 mac80211: notify drivers on sta rate table changes
This allows drivers with a firmware or chip-based rate lookup table to
use the most recent default rate selection without having to get it from
per-packet data or explicit ieee80211_get_tx_rate calls

Patrik Flykt 93d638d49c mac80211-hwsim: Add HWSIM_CMD_GET_RADIO command
HWSIM_CMD_GET_RADIO returns information about a specific radio id or
all of them in response to a dump. Create the netlink skb or use the
one provided by the dump functionality. Use the existing attribute
appending function to fill in the same attributes when creating a
new hwsim radio.

Save alpha2 and struct ieee80211_regdomain in the hwsim data or else
they will be lost in the depths of regulatory infrastructure.

Patrik Flykt c449981c47 mac80211-hwsim: Factor out netlink attribute appending
Factor out netlink message attribute appending in order to reuse it
with later code. As a result move netlink skb allocation to the
calling function.

Johannes Berg 6b67e01fc0 mac80211-hwsim: remove unnecessary hwname check
The hwname will always be set if idx is negative (as it's
a u32 read into an s64 it can't overflow either) so we can
remove the unnecessary check for hwname being non-NULL.

This was reported by smatch.

Rafał Miłecki d687cbb703 cfg80211: protect fools returning NULL in add_virtual_intf
Callback add_virtual_intf is supposed to return ERR_PTR and trying to
return NULL results in some "Unable to handle kernel paging request",
etc. As it may be complicated to debug & trace, let's catch it (WARN).
