cfg80211: Add support for QoS mapping

2013-12-19T15:29:22+00:00

This allows QoS mapping from external networks to be implemented as
defined in IEEE Std 802.11-2012, 10.24.9. APs can use this to advertise
DSCP ranges and exceptions for mapping frames to a specific UP over
Wi-Fi.

The payload of the QoS Map Set element (IEEE Std 802.11-2012, 8.4.2.97)
is sent to the driver through the new NL80211_ATTR_QOS_MAP attribute to
configure the local behavior either on the AP (based on local
configuration) or on a station (based on information received from the
AP).

cfg80211: move exported event functions into nl80211

2013-03-06T15:35:46+00:00

This is the sort of thing gcc's LTO could do, but since
we don't have that yet we can also do it manually. The
advantage is reduced code, both source and binary, e.g.
on x86-64

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
 442825	  56230	    776	 499831	  7a077	cfg80211.ko (before)
 441585	  56230	    776	 498591	  79b9f	cfg80211.ko (after)

a reduction of ~1k.

But in order to not complicate the code move only those
functions that are simple wrappers, not those that have
functionality of their own.

cfg80211: move some AP code to right file

2013-01-03T12:01:40+00:00

Some AP code ended up in mlme.c as ap.c didn't
exist when it was written, move it now.

cfg80211: add channel tracking for AP and mesh

2012-06-29T11:39:15+00:00

We need to know which channel is used by a running
AP and mesh for channel context accounting and
finding matching/active interface combination.

STA/IBSS have current_bss already which allows us
to check which channel a vif is tuned to.
Non-fixed channel IBSS can be handled with
additional changes.

Monitor mode is going to be handled differently.

cfg80211: introduce cfg80211_stop_ap

2012-06-29T11:39:14+00:00

This functionality will be reused when interface
is going down. Avoids code duplication. Also adds
missing wdev locking.
