ATH9K_RX_FILTER_COMP_BAR is used to receive BAR
completion frames and is set if the current channel
is HT. When channel contexts are enabled, instead of using
the mac80211 helpers, check if the current channel
definition is HT.

If multiple channel contexts are active, then the opmode
can be different in each context. Since the RX filter is
calculated in ath_startrecv() before switching to the
new opmode, the wrong filters are chosen.
Fix this by calling ath9k_calculate_summary_state() before
the RX module is started.

Currently, different units are used for handling
sc->offchannel.duration. In scan mode, it contains jiffies and in RoC
mode, milliseconds is used. This causes confusion since in
ath_chanctx_switch(), TU_TO_USEC is used to determine the offchannel
duration, resulting in incorrect values. Fix this by using jiffies in
both modes.

The start time field in the NoA attribute needs to be
updated based on the TSF timer when an absence notification
is sent by the P2P GO. When two channel contexts are active,
continuous, cyclic NoA is announced by setting the count value to 255,
but the start time is updated only once, for one beacon and
the same value is sent in all subsequent beacons, even
though the timestamp keeps moving.
Fix this by removing the check for 'periodic_noa_duration'
and assign the interface's start_time/duration values directly
when there is more than one active context.

If a station interface is already assigned to a context
and is active and a second interface of type AP is added,
then beaconing on the new interface has to be begin only
after the BSS_CHANGED_BEACON_ENABLED flag is sent by mac80211
to the driver.
But, since we issue ATH_CHANCTX_EVENT_ENABLE_MULTICHANNEL as soon
as a new channel context is added, a switch occurs almost immediately
before BSS_CHANGED_BEACON_ENABLED is received. When a HW reset
is done for the new context, beacons are enabled for the
interface since "enable_beacon" in the BSS config maintained
in mac80211 is true - but the driver hasn't been notified yet.
This causes a panic, since the beacon interval is zero for this
interface and ath9k_cmn_beacon_config_ap() doesn't have a safety check.
Fix this panic by checking if the beacon params has been cached
for this context and use the "enable_beacon" flag maintained
locally in the driver. Also, recalculate the summary data
after the beacon params have been cached when BSS_CHANGED_BEACON_ENABLED
is received.

In channel context mode, when a new context is added,
mac80211 issues a bss_info_changed() notfication when
preparing the connection for the new interface/context.
But, this is done prior to the mgd_prepare_tx() call which
is where we switch to the new context. Since the current
context will be different when the earlier bss_info_changed()
is handled, the beacon information for the VIF is not
updated, but discarded since the rules for the current context
disallows it.
In the subsequent association process for the new context/vif,
this becomes a problem because the beacon parameters are invalid.
This causes problems with the TSF timer, causing large jumps.
To fix this, check if the beacon info is being updated for a
different context and if so, allow it without any checks since
we limit the max. interfaces to two anyway.

According to RCU_INIT_POINTER()'s block comment 3.a, it can be used if
"3. The referenced data structure has already been exposed to readers either
at compile time or via rcu_assign_pointer() -and-
a. You have not made -any- reader-visible changes to this structure since
then".
This case fulfills the conditions above because between the rcu_dereference()
call (cvif = rcu_dereference(ar->beacon_iter);) and the rcu_assign_pointer()
call there is no update of the "cvif" variable.
Therefore, this patch makes the replacement.
The following Coccinelle semantic patch was used:
@@
identifier v;
@@
v = rcu_dereference(...);
... when != rcu_dereference(...);
when != v = ...;
when != (<+...v...+>)++;
when != \(memcpy\|memset\)(...);
(
- rcu_assign_pointer
+ RCU_INIT_POINTER
(..., v);
|
if(...) {
... when != v = ...;
- rcu_assign_pointer
+ RCU_INIT_POINTER
(..., v);
... when any
}
)
Because there are cases where between a “rcu_dereference()” call and a
“rcu_assign_pointer()” call might be updates of the value that interests us,
the Coccinelle semantic patch ignores them and replaces with
"RCU_INIT_POINTER()" only when the update is not happening.
