Johannes Berg says:
====================
This time we have various things - all across the board:
* MU-MIMO sniffer support in mac80211
* a create_singlethread_workqueue() cleanup
* interface dump filtering that was documented but not implemented
* support for the new radiotap timestamp field
* send delBA in two unexpected conditions (as required by the spec)
* connect keys cleanups - allow only WEP with index 0-3
* per-station aggregation limit to work around broken APs
* debugfs improvement for the integrated codel algorithm
and various other small improvements and cleanups.

There are a few places where an IE that matches not only the EID, but
also other bytes inside the element, needs to be found. To simplify
that and reduce the amount of similar code, implement a new helper
function to match the EID and an extra array of bytes.
Additionally, simplify cfg80211_find_vendor_ie() by using the new
match function.

If the message got full during nla_nest_start(), it can return

There's no point in allowing connect keys when one of them
isn't also configured as the TX key, it would just confuse
drivers and probably cause them to pick something for TX.
Disallow this confusing and erroneous configuration.
As wpa_supplicant will always send NL80211_ATTR_KEYS, even
when there are no keys inside, allow that and treat it as
though the attribute isn't present at all.

After the previous patches, connect keys can only (correctly)
be used for storing static WEP keys. Therefore, remove all the
data for dealing with key index 4/5 and reduce the size of the
key material to the maximum for WEP keys.

Don't accept it if a key_idx < 0 snuck through, reject WEP keys with
key index 4 and 5 (which are used for IGTKs) and don't allow IGTKs
with key indices other than 4 and 5. This makes the key data match
expectations better.

The workqueue "cfg80211_wq" is involved in cleanup, scan and event related
works. It queues multiple work items &rdev->event_work,
&rdev->dfs_update_channels_wk,
&wiphy_to_rdev(request->wiphy)->scan_done_wk,
&wiphy_to_rdev(wiphy)->sched_scan_results_wk, which require strict
execution ordering.
Hence, an ordered dedicated workqueue has been used.
Since it's a wireless driver, WQ_MEM_RECLAIM has been set to ensure
forward progress under memory pressure.

This patch allows GET_INTERFACE dumps to be filtered based on
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY or NL80211_ATTR_WDEV. The documentation for
GET_INTERFACE mentions that this is possible:
"Request an interface's configuration; either a dump request on
a %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY or ..."
However, this behavior has not been implemented until now.
Johannes: rewrite most of the patch:
* use nl80211_dump_wiphy_parse() to also allow passing an interface
to be able to dump its siblings
* fix locking (must hold rtnl around using nl80211_fam.attrbuf)
* make init self-contained instead of relying on other cb->args

This change alters the semantics of NL80211_CMD_DEL_INTERFACE events
by always sending this event whenever a net_device object associated
with a wdev is destroyed. Prior to this change, this event was only
emitted as a result of NL80211_CMD_DEL_INTERFACE command sent from
userspace. This allows userspace to reliably detect when wireless
interfaces have been removed, e.g. due to USB removal events, etc.
For wireless device objects without an associated net_device (e.g.
NL80211_IFTYPE_P2P_DEVICE), the NL80211_CMD_DEL_INTERFACE event is
now generated inside cfg80211_unregister_wdev.

For wdevs created without an associated net_device object (e.g.

still generated inside the relevant nl80211 command handler.

This reverts commit 3d5fdff46c4b2b9534fa2f9fc78e90a48e0ff724.
Ben Hutchings pointed out that the commit isn't safe since it assumes
that the structure used by the driver is iw_point, when in fact there's
no way to know about that.
Fortunately, the only driver in the tree that ever runs this code path
is the wilc1000 staging driver, so it doesn't really matter.
Clearly I should have investigated this better before applying, sorry.

The use of config_enabled() against config options is ambiguous. In
practical terms, config_enabled() is equivalent to IS_BUILTIN(), but the
author might have used it for the meaning of IS_ENABLED(). Using
IS_ENABLED(), IS_BUILTIN(), IS_MODULE() etc. makes the intention
clearer.
This commit replaces config_enabled() with IS_ENABLED() where possible.
This commit is only touching bool config options.
I noticed two cases where config_enabled() is used against a tristate
option:
- config_enabled(CONFIG_HWMON)
[ drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/thermal.c ]
- config_enabled(CONFIG_BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE)
[ drivers/gpu/drm/gma500/opregion.c ]
I did not touch them because they should be converted to IS_BUILTIN()
in order to keep the logic, but I was not sure it was the authors'
intention.

Beacon report radio measurement requires reporting observed BSSs
on the channels specified in the beacon request. If the measurement
mode is set to passive or active, it requires actually performing a
scan (passive or active, accordingly), and reporting the time that
the scan was started and the time each beacon/probe was received
(both in terms of TSF of the BSS of the requesting AP). If the
request mode is table, this information is optional.
In addition, the radio measurement request specifies the channel
dwell time for the measurement.
In order to use scan for beacon report when the mode is active or
passive, add a parameter to scan request that specifies the
channel dwell time, and add scan start time and beacon received time
to scan results information.
Supporting beacon report is required for Multi Band Operation (MBO).

using VHT MU-MIMO.
And add attribute -NL80211_ATTR_MU_MIMO_FOLLOW_ADDR - for passing
MAC address to monitor mode.

When building a kernel with W=1, the nl80211.c file causes a number of

net/wireless/nl80211.c:5305:116: error: comparison is always false due to limited range of data type [-Werror=type-limits]
The problem is that gcc does not notice that the check is generate
by a macro, so it complains about comparing an unsigned type against 0.
I've tried to come up with a way to rephrase that code in a way that
avoids the warnings and otherwise improves the code as well.
This uses a set of new helper functions that perform the range checking,
and should provide slightly better type safety than the older patch,
at the expense of adding 44 lines to the code. Binary code size is
basically unchanged though (20 bytes added to 126561 bytes .text).

The PDU length of incoming LLC frames is set to the total skb payload size
in __ieee80211_data_to_8023() of net/wireless/util.c which incorrectly
includes the length of the IEEE 802.11 header.
The resulting LLC frame header has a too large PDU length, causing the
llc_fixup_skb() function of net/llc/llc_input.c to reject the incoming
skb, effectively breaking STP.
Solve the problem by properly substracting the IEEE 802.11 frame header size
from the PDU length, allowing the LLC processor to pick up the incoming
control messages.
Special thanks to Gerry Rozema for tracking down the regression and proposing
a suitable patch.

iwpriv app uses iw_point structure to send data to Kernel. The iw_point
structure holds a pointer. For compatibility Kernel converts the pointer
as required for WEXT IOCTLs (SIOCIWFIRST to SIOCIWLAST). Some drivers
may use iw_handler_def.private_args to populate iwpriv commands instead
of iw_handler_def.private. For those case, the IOCTLs from
SIOCIWFIRSTPRIV to SIOCIWLASTPRIV will follow the path ndo_do_ioctl().
Accordingly when the filled up iw_point structure comes from 32 bit
iwpriv to 64 bit Kernel, Kernel will not convert the pointer and sends
it to driver. So, the driver may get the invalid data.
The pointer conversion for the IOCTLs (SIOCIWFIRSTPRIV to
SIOCIWLASTPRIV), which follow the path ndo_do_ioctl(), is mandatory.
This patch adds pointer conversion from 32 bit to 64 bit and vice versa,
if the ioctl comes from 32 bit iwpriv to 64 bit Kernel.

Since set_tx_power and set_antenna are frequently implemented
without the matching get_tx_power/get_antenna, we shouldn't
have added warnings for those. Remove them.
The remaining ones are correct and need to be implemented
symmetrically for correct operation.

The driver extended capabilities may differ for different
interface types which the userspace needs to know (for
example the fine timing measurement initiator and responder
bits might differ for a station and AP). Add a new nl80211
attribute to provide extended capabilities per interface type
to userspace.

Previously, the status parameter to cfg80211_connect_result() was
documented as using WLAN_STATUS_UNSPECIFIED_FAILURE (1) when the real
status code for the failure is not known. This value can be used by an
AP (and often is) and as such, user space cannot distinguish between
explicitly rejected authentication/association and not being able to
even try to associate or not receiving a response from the AP.
Add a new inline function, cfg80211_connect_timeout(), to be used when
the driver knows that the connection attempt failed due to a reason
where connection could not be attempt or no response was received from
the AP. The internal functions now allow a negative status value (-1) to
be used as an indication of this special case. This results in the
NL80211_ATTR_TIMED_OUT to be added to the NL80211_CMD_CONNECT event to
allow user space to determine this case was hit. For backwards
compatibility, NL80211_STATUS_CODE with the value
WLAN_STATUS_UNSPECIFIED_FAILURE is still indicated in the event in such
a case.

While a wiphy can be transferred to network namespaces, a process having
CAP_NET_ADMIN in a non-initial user namespace can not administrate such
devices due to the genetlink GENL_ADMIN_PERM restrictions.
For openvswitch having the same issue, a new GENL_UNS_ADMIN_PERM flag has
been introduced, commit 4a92602aa1cd ("openvswitch: allow management from
inside user namespaces"). This patch changes all privileged operations
operating on a wiphy, dev or wdev to allow their administration using the
same mechanism. All operations use either NEED_WIPHY, NEED_WDEV or
NEED_NETDEV, which implies a namespace aware lookup of the device. The only
exception is NL80211_CMD_SET_WIPHY, which explicitly uses a namespace aware
phy lookup.

page_reference manipulation functions are introduced to track down
reference count change of the page. Use it instead of direct
modification of _count.

There's no harm in having drivers read the list, since they can
use RCU protection or RTNL locking; allow this to not require
each and every driver to also implement its own bookkeeping.

The devlist_mtx mutex was removed about two years ago, in favour of just
using RTNL/RCU protection. Remove the comment still referencing it.
