Enable spatial multiplexing in mac80211 by telling the
driver what to do and, where necessary, sending action
frames to the AP to update the requested SMPS mode.
Also includes a trivial implementation for hwsim that
just logs the requested mode.
For now, the userspace interface is in debugfs only,
and let you toggle the requested mode at any time.

When the device receives an A-MSDU frame (indicated by flag
IWM_RX_TICKET_AMSDU_MSK), use ieee80211_amsdu_to_8023s to convert
it to a list of 802.3 frames and handled them to upper layer.

Move the A-MSDU handling code from mac80211 to cfg80211 so that more
drivers can use it. The new created function ieee80211_amsdu_to_8023s
converts an A-MSDU frame to a list of 802.3 frames.

The mac80211 tkip code won't call update_tkip_key, if rx packets
are received without KEY_FLAG_UPLOADED_TO_HARDWARE. This can happen on
first packet because the hardware key stuff is called asynchronously with
todo workqueue.
This patch workaround that by tracking if we sent the key to the driver.

According to Ralink source code, the RX frame format is RXINFO + RXWI +
802.11 frame + RXD, including various padding. Before this patch, we
were using RXD + RXWI + 802.11 frame, so RXD was not correct.
Doing this, we fix the L2PAD bit which is now correctly set on received
frames.

RX aggregation is a way to receive multiple 802.11 frames in one RX buffer.
However, we don't know yet how to handle this case in rt2800usb_fill_rxdone
and this has probably no impact on RX performance as well, so we disable it

Simplify the rt2x00queue_insert_l2pad function by handling the alignment
operations one by one. Do not special case special circumstances.
Basically first perform header alignment, and then perform payload alignment
(if any payload does exist). This results in a properly aligned skb.
The end result is better readable code, with better results, as now L2 padding
is inserted only when a payload is actually present in the frame.

With the improved L2 padding code, this flag is no longer necessary, as the
rt2x00queue_remove_l2pad is capable of detecting by itself if L2 padding is

Fix a couple of more bugs in the L2 padding code:
1. Compute the amount of L2 padding correctly (in 3 places).
2. Trim the skb correctly when the L2 padding has been applied.
Also introduce a central macro the compute the L2 padding size.

Otherwise we end up truncating the skb before removing the l2pad
thus we might have the truncated part become garbage while getting
it back in remove_l2pad.
For the same issue: remove the skb_trim from the rt2800 fill_rxdone
(it is done after l2pad removal in rt2x00lib_rxdone).

Do not need to log error when fail the sensitivity command, driver will send
sensitivity write command to uCode after each sensitivity calibration if
station is associated with AP. It is a normal case when user unload the module
or shutdown the system while still associated with the AP, since uCode already
on the way down, it will not reply the sensitivity write request; report
error in this case will give misleading information, remove the error checking
here to provide a clean shutdown if no other error detected.

In order to help uCode debugging, adding the capability to provide
continuous uCode event logging function.
uCode events is located in round-robin event queue and filled by uCode,
by enable continuous event logging, driver check the write pointer
and log the newly added events in iwl_bg_ucode_trace() timer function.
There is still possibility of missing events if event queue being
wrapped before next event dump; but with this capability, we can have
much better understanding of the uCode behavior during runtime; it can
help to debug the uCode related issues.
Methods to enable/disable the continuous event log:
step 1: enable ucode trace timer
"echo 1 >
/sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phyX/iwlagn/debug/ucode_tracing"
step 2: start ftrace
sudo ./trace-cmd record -e iwlwifi_ucode:* sleep 1d
step 3: stop ftrace
sudo ./trace-cmd report trace.dat
step 4: disable ucode trace timer
"echo 0 >
/sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phyX/iwlagn/debug/ucode_tracing"
use "ucode_tracing" debugfs file to display number of event
queue wrapped when driver attempt the continuous event logging. If event
queue being wrapped more than once when driver has opportunity to log
the event; it indicated there are events missing in the event log trace.
This continuous event log function only available for 4965 and newer
NICs.

This patch provides infrastructure for machine translation of the
regulatory rules database used by CRDA into a C data structure.
It includes code for searching that database as an alternative
to dynamic regulatory rules updates via CRDA. Most people should
use CRDA instead of this infrastructure, but it provides a better
alternative than the WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY infrastructure (which
can now be removed).

The payload alignment warning enabled by MAC80211_DEBUG_PACKET_ALIGNMENT is
difficult. To fix it, a firmware change is needed but in most cases that's
very difficult. So the benefit from the warning is low and most probably
it just creates more confusion for people who just enable all warnings
(like it did for me).
Remove the unaligned IP payload warning and the kconfig option. But
leave the unaligned packet warning, it will be enabled with
MAC80211_VERBOSE_DEBUG.

For bluetooth 3, we will most likely not have
a netdev for a virtual interface (sdata), so
prepare for that by reducing the reliance on
having a netdev. This patch moves the name
and address fields into the sdata struct and
uses them from there all over. Some work is
needed to keep them sync'ed, but that's not
a lot of work and in slow paths anyway.
In doing so, this also reduces the number of
pointer dereferences in many places, because
of things like sdata->dev->dev_addr becoming
sdata->vif.addr.

The station management currently uses the virtual
interface, but you cannot add the same station to
multiple virtual interfaces if you're communicating
with it in multiple ways.
This restriction should be lifted so that in the
future we can, for instance, support bluetooth 3
with an access point that mac80211 is already
associated to.
We can do that by requiring all sta_info_get users
to provide the virtual interface and making the RX
code aware that an address may match more than one
station struct. Thanks to the previous patches this
one isn't all that large and except for the RX and
TX status paths changes has low complexity.

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/254837
Spurious shared interrupts or early probing interrupts can cause the
hostap interrupt handler to oops before the driver has fully configured
the IO base port addresses. In some cases the oops can be because
the hardware shares an interrupt line, on other cases it is due to a
race condition between probing for the hardware and configuring
the IO base port. The latter occurs because the probing is required to
determin the hardware port address which is only determined when the probe
can interrupt the hardware (catch 22).
This patch catches this pre-configured condition to avoid the oops.
