<id>91d3ab46730379e89e1e908c6f62fbcadb3d8f08</id>
<content type='text'>
Implement new functionality for aborting an ongoing scan.

Add NL80211_CMD_ABORT_SCAN to the nl80211 interface. After
aborting the scan, driver shall provide the scan status by
calling cfg80211_scan_done().

Complete the tracepoint with the missing data - it's not printed
by default (a lot of it is dynamic arrays) but will be recorded
and be available during post-processing.

<title>nl80211: allow BSS data to include CLOCK_BOOTTIME timestamp</title>

<content type='text'>
For location and connectivity services, userspace would often like
to know the time when the BSS was last seen. The current "last seen"
value is calculated in a way that makes it less useful, especially
if the system suspended in the meantime.

Add the ability for the driver to report a real CLOCK_BOOTTIME stamp
that can then be reported to userspace (if present).

Drivers wishing to use this must be converted to the new API to call
cfg80211_inform_bss_data() or cfg80211_inform_bss_frame_data(). They
need to ensure the reported value is accurate enough even when the
frame might have been buffered in the device (e.g. firmware.)

<title>cfg80211: use RTNL locked reg_can_beacon for IR-relaxation</title>

The RTNL is required to check for IR-relaxation conditions that allow
more channels to beacon. Export an RTNL locked version of reg_can_beacon
and use it where possible in AP/STA interface type flows, where
IR-relaxation may be applicable.

Johannes Berg says:

====================
Lots of updates for net-next; along with the usual flurry
of small fixes, cleanups and internal features we have:
 * VHT support for TDLS and IBSS (conditional on drivers though)
 * first TX performance improvements (the biggest will come later)
 * many suspend/resume (race) fixes
 * name_assign_type support from Tom Gundersen
====================

This helps debug issues with VLAN modifications that are otherwise
not really visible in any tracing/debugging.

802.11ad adds new a network type (PBSS) and changes the capability
field interpretation for the DMG (60G) band.
The same 2 bits that were interpreted as "ESS" and "IBSS" before are
re-used as a 2-bit field with 3 valid values (and 1 reserved). Valid
values are: "IBSS", "PBSS" (new) and "AP".

In order to get the BSS struct for the new PBSS networks, change the
cfg80211_get_bss() function to take a new enum ieee80211_bss_type
argument with the valid network types, as "capa_mask" and "capa_val"
no longer work correctly (the search must be band-aware now.)

The remaining bits in "capa_mask" and "capa_val" are used only for
privacy matching so replace those two with a privacy enum as well.
