cfg80211: connect/disconnect API This patch introduces the cfg80211 connect/disconnect API. The goal here is to run the AUTH and ASSOC steps in one call. This is needed for some fullmac cards that run both steps directly from the target, after the host driver sends a connect command. Additionally, all the new crypto parameters for connect() are now also valid for associate() -- although associate requires the IEs to be used, the information can be useful for drivers and should be given.

cfg80211: fix locking Over time, a lot of locking issues have crept into the smarts of cfg80211, so e.g. scan completion can race against a new scan, IBSS join can race against leaving an IBSS, etc. Introduce a new per-interface lock that protects most of the per-interface data that we need to keep track of, and sprinkle assertions about that lock everywhere. Some things now need to be offloaded to work structs so that we don't require being able to sleep in functions the drivers call. The exception to that are the MLME callbacks (rx_auth etc.) that currently only mac80211 calls because it was easier to do that there instead of in cfg80211, and future drivers implementing those calls will, if they ever exist, probably need to use a similar scheme like mac80211 anyway... In order to be able to handle _deauth and _disassoc properly, introduce a cookie passed to it that will determine locking requirements.

nl80211: Add Michael MIC failure event Define a new nl80211 event, NL80211_CMD_MICHAEL_MIC_FAILURE, to be used to notify user space about locally detected Michael MIC failures. This matches with the MLME-MICHAELMICFAILURE.indication() primitive. Since we do not actually have TSC in the skb anymore when mac80211_ev_michael_mic_failure() is called, that function is changed to take in the TSC as an optional parameter instead of as a requirement to include the TSC after the hdr field (which we did not really follow). For now, TSC is not included in the events from mac80211, but it could be added at some point. Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

If wireless extensions are used, it also caches values when the interface is down and instructs the driver to join when the interface is set up.

cfg80211: add remain-on-channel command Add new commands for requesting the driver to remain awake on a specified channel for the specified amount of time (and another command to cancel such an operation). This can be used to implement userspace-controlled off-channel operations, like Public Action frame exchange on another channel than the operation channel. The off-channel operation should behave similarly to scan, i.e. the local station (if associated) moves into power save mode to request the AP to buffer frames for it and then moves to the other channel to allow the off-channel operation to be completed. The duration parameter can be used to request enough time to receive a response from the target station.

cfg80211/mac80211: allow registering for and sending action frames This implements a new command to register for action frames that userspace wants to handle instead of the in-kernel rejection. It is then responsible for rejecting ones that it decided not to handle. There is no unregistration, but the socket can be closed for that. Frames that are not registered for will not be forwarded to userspace and will be rejected by the kernel, the cfg80211 API helps implementing that. Additionally, this patch adds a new command that allows doing action frame transmission from userspace. It can be used either to exchange action frames on the current operational channel (e.g., with the AP with which we are currently associated) or to exchange off-channel Public Action frames with the remain-on-channel command.

cfg80211: Add connection quality monitoring support to nl80211 Add support for basic configuration of a connection quality monitoring to the nl80211 interface, and basic support for notifying about triggered monitoring events. Via this interface a user-space connection manager may configure and receive pre-warning events of deteriorating WLAN connection quality, and start preparing for roaming in advance, before the connection is already lost. An example usage of such a trigger is starting scanning for nearby AP's in an attempt to find one with better connection quality, and associate to it before the connection characteristics of the existing connection become too bad or the association is even lost, leading in a prolonged delay in connectivity. The interface currently supports only RSSI, but it could be later extended to include other parameters, such as signal-to-noise ratio, if need for that arises.
