linux-stable.git/include/uapi/linux/nl80211.h, branch v4.20.7 Linux kernel stable tree nl80211: Add per peer statistics to compute FCS error rate 2018-10-12T10:56:34+00:00 Ankita Bajaj bankita@codeaurora.org 2018-09-27T15:01:57+00:00 0d4e14a32dcab9c4bd559d02874120fbb86b1322 Add support for drivers to report the total number of MPDUs received and the number of MPDUs received with an FCS error from a specific peer. These counters will be incremented only when the TA of the frame matches the MAC address of the peer irrespective of FCS error. It should be noted that the TA field in the frame might be corrupted when there is an FCS error and TA matching logic would fail in such cases. Hence, FCS error counter might not be fully accurate, but it can provide help in detecting bad RX links in significant number of cases. This FCS error counter without full accuracy can be used, e.g., to trigger a kick-out of a connected client with a bad link in AP mode to force such a client to roam to another AP.

The user space must detect a PTK rekey attempt and only go ahead with it when the driver has set this flag. If the driver is not supporting the feature the user space either must not replace the PTK key or perform a full re-association instead. Ignoring this flag and continuing to rekey the connection can still work but has to be considered insecure and broken. Depending on the driver it can leak clear text packets or freeze the connection and is only supported to allow the user space to be updated.

====================
This round's updates:
 * finally some of the promised HE code, but it turns
   out to be small - but everything kept changing, so
   one part I did in the driver was >30 patches for

   here for this code.
 * improved scan privacy support - can now specify scan
