[ Upstream commit be1ba9ed22 ]
If we get to the error path of ieee80211_prep_connection, for example
because of a FW issue, then ieee80211_vif_set_links is called
with 0.
But the call to drv_change_vif_links from ieee80211_vif_update_links
will probably fail as well, for the same reason.
In this case, the valid_links and active_links bitmaps will be reverted
to the value of the failing connection.
Then, in the next connection, due to the logic of
ieee80211_set_vif_links_bitmaps, valid_links will be set to the ID of
the new connection assoc link, but the active_links will remain with the
ID of the old connection's assoc link.
If those IDs are different, we get into a weird state of valid_links and
active_links being different. One of the consequences of this state is
to call drv_change_vif_links with new_links as 0, since the & operation
between the bitmaps will be 0.
Since a removal of a link should always succeed, ignore the return value
of drv_change_vif_links if it was called to only remove links, which is
the case for the ieee80211_prep_connection's error path.
That way, the bitmaps will not be reverted to have the value from the
failing connection and will have 0, so the next connection will have a
good state.

[ Upstream commit 6b04716cdc ]
When SAE commit is sent and received in response, there's no
ordering for the SAE confirm messages. As such, don't call
drivers to stop listening on the channel when the confirm
message is still expected.
This fixes an issue if the local confirm is transmitted later
than the AP's confirm, for iwlwifi (and possibly mt76) the
AP's confirm would then get lost since the device isn't on
the channel at the time the AP transmit the confirm.
For iwlwifi at least, this also improves the overall timing
of the authentication handshake (by about 15ms according to
the report), likely since the session protection won't be
aborted and rescheduled.
Note that even before this, mgd_complete_tx() wasn't always
called for each call to mgd_prepare_tx() (e.g. in the case
of WEP key shared authentication), and the current drivers
that have the complete callback don't seem to mind. Document
this as well though.

[ Upstream commit 4876376988 ]
This reverts commit 484a54c2e5. The CoDel
parameter change essentially disables CoDel on slow stations, with some
questionable assumptions, as Dave pointed out in [0]. Quoting from
there:
But here are my pithy comments as to why this part of mac80211 is so
wrong...
static void sta_update_codel_params(struct sta_info *sta, u32 thr)
{
- if (thr && thr < STA_SLOW_THRESHOLD * sta->local->num_sta) {
1) sta->local->num_sta is the number of associated, rather than
active, stations. "Active" stations in the last 50ms or so, might have
been a better thing to use, but as most people have far more than that
associated, we end up with really lousy codel parameters, all the
time. Mistake numero uno!
2) The STA_SLOW_THRESHOLD was completely arbitrary in 2016.
- sta->cparams.target = MS2TIME(50);
This, by itself, was probably not too bad. 30ms might have been
better, at the time, when we were battling powersave etc, but 20ms was
enough, really, to cover most scenarios, even where we had low rate
2Ghz multicast to cope with. Even then, codel has a hard time finding
any sane drop rate at all, with a target this high.
- sta->cparams.interval = MS2TIME(300);
But this was horrible, a total mistake, that is leading to codel being
completely ineffective in almost any scenario on clients or APS.
100ms, even 80ms, here, would be vastly better than this insanity. I'm
seeing 5+seconds of delay accumulated in a bunch of otherwise happily
fq-ing APs....
100ms of observed jitter during a flow is enough. Certainly (in 2016)
there were interactions with powersave that I did not understand, and
still don't, but if you are transmitting in the first place, powersave
shouldn't be a problemmmm.....
- sta->cparams.ecn = false;
At the time we were pretty nervous about ecn, I'm kind of sanguine
about it now, and reliably indicating ecn seems better than turning it
off for any reason.
[...]
In production, on p2p wireless, I've had 8ms and 80ms for target and
interval for years now, and it works great.
I think Dave's arguments above are basically sound on the face of it,
and various experimentation with tighter CoDel parameters in the OpenWrt
community have show promising results[1]. So I don't think there's any
reason to keep this parameter fiddling; hence this revert.

Currently DFS works under assumption there could be only one channel
context in the hardware. Hence, drivers just calls the function
ieee80211_radar_detected() passing the hardware structure. However, with
MLO, this obviously will not work since number of channel contexts will be
more than one and hence drivers would need to pass the channel information
as well on which the radar is detected.
Also, when radar is detected in one of the links, other link's CAC should
not be cancelled.
Hence, in order to support DFS with MLO, do the following changes -
* Add channel context conf pointer as an argument to the function
ieee80211_radar_detected(). During MLO, drivers would have to pass on
which channel context conf radar is detected. Otherwise, drivers could
just pass NULL.
* ieee80211_radar_detected() will iterate over all channel contexts
present and
* if channel context conf is passed, only mark that as radar
detected
* if NULL is passed, then mark all channel contexts as radar
detected
* Then as usual, schedule the radar detected work.
* In the worker, go over all the contexts again and for all such context
which is marked with radar detected, cancel the ongoing CAC by calling
ieee80211_dfs_cac_cancel() and then notify cfg80211 via
cfg80211_radar_event().
* To cancel the CAC, pass the channel context as well where radar is
detected to ieee80211_dfs_cac_cancel(). This ensures that CAC is
canceled only on the links using the provided context, leaving other
links unaffected.
This would also help in scenarios where there is split phy 5 GHz radio,
which is capable of DFS channels in both lower and upper band. In this
case, simultaneous radars can be detected.

This flag is annoying because it puts a lot of logic into mac80211
that could just as well be in the driver (only iwlmvm uses it) and
the implementation is also broken for MLO.
Remove the flag in favour of calling drv_mgd_prepare_tx() without
any conditions even for the deauth-while-assoc case. The drivers
that implement it can take the appropriate actions, which for the
only user of DEAUTH_NEED_MGD_TX_PREP (iwlmvm) is a bit more tricky
than the implementation in mac80211 is anyway, and all others have
no need and can just exit if info->was_assoc is set.

Instead of passing the full TPE elements, in all their glory
and mixed up data formats for HE backward compatibility, parse
them fully into the right values, and pass that to the drivers.
Also introduce proper validation already in mac80211, so that
drivers don't need to do it, and parse the EHT portions.
The code now passes the values in the right order according to
the channel used by an interface, which could also be a subset
of the data advertised by the AP, if we couldn't connect with
the full bandwidth (for whatever reason.)
Also add kunit tests for the more complicated bits of it.

When doing CSA in multi-link, there really isn't a need to
stop transmissions entirely. Add a feature flag for drivers
to indicate they can handle quiet in CSA (be it by parsing
themselves, or by implementing drv_pre_channel_switch()),
to make that possible.
Also clean up the csa_block_tx handling: it clearly cannot
handle multi-link due to the way queues are stopped, move
it to the sdata. Drivers should be doing it themselves for
working properly during CSA in MLO anyway. Also rename it
to indicate that it reflects TX was blocked at mac80211.

EHT requires that stations are able to participate in
wider bandwidth OFDMA, i.e. parse downlink OFDMA and
uplink OFDMA triggers when they're not capable of (or
not connected at) the (wider) bandwidth that the AP
is using. This requires hardware configuration, since
the entity responsible for parsing (possibly hardware)
needs to know the AP bandwidth.
To support this, change the channel request to have
the AP's bandwidth for clients, and track that in the
channel context in mac80211. This means that the same
chandef might need to be split up into two different
contexts, if the APs are different. Interfaces other
than client are not participating in OFDMA the same
way, so they don't request any AP setting.
Note that this doesn't introduce any API to split a
channel context, so that there are cases where this
might lead to a disconnect, e.g. if there are two
client interfaces using the same channel context, e.g.
both 160 MHz connected to different 320 MHz APs, and
one of the APs switches to 160 MHz.
Note also there are possible cases where this can be
optimised, e.g. when using the upper or lower 160 Mhz,
but I haven't been able to really fully understand the
spec and/or hardware limitations.
If, for some reason, there are no hardware limits on
this because the OFDMA (downlink/trigger) parsing is
done in firmware and can take the transmitter into
account, then drivers can set the new flag
IEEE80211_VIF_IGNORE_OFDMA_WIDER_BW on interfaces to
not have them request any AP bandwidth in the channel
context and ignore this issue entirely. The bss_conf
still contains the AP configuration (if any, i.e. EHT)
in the chanreq.

For channel contexts, mac80211 currently uses the cfg80211
chandef struct (control channel, center freq(s), width) to
define towards drivers and internally how these behave. In
fact, there are _two_ such structs used, where the min_def
can reduce bandwidth according to the stations connected.
Unfortunately, with EHT this is longer be sufficient, at
least not for all hardware. EHT requires that non-AP STAs
that are connected to an AP with a lower bandwidth than it
(the AP) advertises (e.g. 160 MHz STA connected to 320 MHz
AP) still be able to receive downlink OFDMA and respond to
trigger frames for uplink OFDMA that specify the position
and bandwidth for the non-AP STA relative to the channel
the AP is using. Therefore, they need to be aware of this,
and at least for some hardware (e.g. Intel) this awareness
is in the hardware. As a result, use of the "same" channel
may need to be split over two channel contexts where they
differ by the AP being used.
As a first step, introduce a concept of a channel request
('chanreq') for each interface, to control the context it
requests. This step does nothing but reorganise the code,
so that later the AP's chandef can be added to the request
in order to handle the EHT case described above.

There are still surprisingly many non-chanctx drivers, but in
mac80211 that code is a bit awkward. Simplify this by having
those drivers assign 'emulated' ops, so that the mac80211 code
can be more unified between non-chanctx/chanctx drivers. This
cuts the number of places caring about it by about 15, which
are scattered across - now they're fewer and no longer in the
channel context handling.

An MLD may send TID-to-Link mapping request frame to negotiate
TID to link mapping with a peer MLD.
Support handling negotiated TID-to-Link mapping request frame
by parsing the frame, asking the driver whether it supports the
received mapping or not, and sending a TID-to-Link mapping response
to the AP MLD.
Theoretically, links that became inactive due to the received TID-to-Link
mapping request, can be selected to be activated but this would require
tearing down the negotiated TID-to-Link mapping, which is still not
supported.

During ieee80211_set_active_links() we do (among the others):
1. Call drv_change_vif_links() with both old_active and new_active
2. Unassign the chanctx for the removed link(s) (if any)
3. Assign chanctx to the added link(s) (if any)
4. Call drv_change_vif_links() with the new_active links bitmap
The problem here is that during step #1 the driver doesn't know whether
we will activate multiple links simultaneously or are just doing a link
switch, so it can't check there if multiple links are supported/enabled.
(Some of the drivers might enable/disable this option dynamically)
And during step #3, in which the driver already knows that,
returning an error code (for example when multiple links are not
supported or disabled), will cause a warning, and we will still complete
the transition to the new_active links.
(It is hard to undo things in that stage, since we released channels etc.)
Therefore add a driver callback to check if the desired new_active links
will be supported by the driver or not. This callback will be called
in the beginning of ieee80211_set_active_links() so we won't do anything
before we are sure it is supported.
