e95beb4141 Bluetooth: hci_le_adv_report_evt code refactoring
There is no reason to treat the first advertising entry differently
from the potential other ones. Besides, the current implementation
can easily leads to typos.

9a7308341b ath6kl: silence "invalid rate" warning
For some reason firmware is sending invalid rates when we try to
query current bitrate from ath6kl_get_station() and a warning is issued:

[ 3810.415720] ath6kl: invalid rate: 1935633515
[ 3811.105493] ath6kl: invalid rate: 1935633515
[ 3811.556063] ath6kl: invalid rate: 1935633515

As the warning happens way too often, convert the warning to a debug
message once we have a proper fix. But to make it easy to follow
how often the problem appears, add a debugfs to print
various statistics about workarounds and make this issue the first WAR.

0e8339151f Bluetooth: use recommended LE connection parameters
The new connection parameters now match the recommended values for
Proximity and Health Thermometer profiles. The previous values were
ramdomly chosen, and are either too low or too high for most cases.

New values:

Scan Interval: 60 ms
Scan Window: 30 ms
Minimum Connection Interval: 50 ms
Maximum Connection Interval: 70 ms
Supervision Timeout: 420 ms

See "Table 5.2: Recommended Scan Interval and Scan Window Values" and
"Table 5.3: Recommended Connection Interval Values" for both profiles
for details. Note that the "fast connection" parameters were chosen,
because we do not support yet dynamically changing these parameters from
initiator side.

Additionally, the Proximity profile recommends (section "4.4 Alert on
Link Loss"):

"It is recommended that the Link Supervision Timeout (LSTO) is set to 6x
the connection interval."

Minimum_CE_Length and Maximum_CE_Length were also changed from 0x0001 to
0x0000 because they are informational and optional, and old value was
not reflecting reality.

9fd481e03c Bluetooth: Allow ACL packets over USB in HCI_RAW mode
Removed tests which prevent transmission of ACL packets
when the device is in HCI_RAW mode. These tests verified that
there are ACL or LE links currently tracked by the HCI
connection manager. However, a HCI_RAW mode device does not
use the connection manager. In these circumstances, the connection
counts will be zero, and thus, transmitted ACL packets dropped.

The acl_num test is actually a vestige of a previous bulk URB
scheme that is no longer used by this driver (bulk URBs were not
started until at least one ACL connection was created). This was
incompatible with some endpoint implementations and was dropped -
see commit 43c2e57f94.

The utility of these tests is marginal - currently, the hci tx
scheduler cannot send an ACL or LE packet for an untracked connection
(except if the device is in HCI_RAW mode).

Lastly, no other transport layer driver enforces these same tests.

2fb40577b0 wl3501_cs: min_t() cast truncates high bits
wrqu->encoding.length comes from the network administrator.  It's
size u16.  We want to limit "tocopy" to the smallest value of either
"len_keys", "wrqu->encoding.length" or 100.  But because .length
gets cast from u16 to u8 we might use a random, smaller value than
the was desired.  It's probably not very serious, but we may as well
fix it.

Btw, this is from code auditing and not from testing.  I don't know
if this affects anyone in real life.

e9f935e3e8 nl80211/cfg80211: Add support to disable CCK rate for management frame
Add a new nl80211 attribute to specify whether to send the management
frames in CCK rate or not. As of now the wpa_supplicant is disabling
CCK rate at P2P init itself. So this patch helps to send P2P probe
request/probe response/action frames being sent at non CCK rate in 2GHz
without disabling 11b rates.

This attribute is used with NL80211_CMD_TRIGGER_SCAN and
NL80211_CMD_FRAME commands to disable CCK rate for management frame
transmission.

84b1bec6d7 iwlagn: fix scan complete processing
When we cancel a scan, the completion runs
only from the workqueue. This can cause the
remain-on-channel scan to fail when another
one was just canceled, because we're still
aborting it.

To fix this, run the completion inline with
the lock still held before returning from
iwl_scan_cancel_timeout().

Also, to avoid the scan complete work from
completing a new scan prematurely, add a
new STATUS_SCAN_COMPLETE bit.

8bd2c1ead5 iwlagn: fix dangling scan request
If iwl_scan_initiate() fails for any reason,
priv->scan_request and priv->scan_vif are left
dangling. This can lead to a crash later when
iwl_bg_scan_completed() tries to run a pending
scan request.

In practice, this seems to be very rare due to
the STATUS_SCANNING check earlier. That check,
however, is wrong -- it should allow a scan to
be queued when a reset/roc scan is going on.
When a normal scan is already going on, a new
one can't be issued by mac80211, so that code
can be removed completely. I introduced this
bug when adding off-channel support in commit
266af4c745952e9bebf687dd68af58df553cb59d.

beacon buffers found in scanning directly to stack and parse
the buffer for requested BSS only during association.

Beacon buffer doesn't contain bss band information. Driver
gets it from firmware in separate tlv (chan_band_tlv).
Currently since we don't inform stack about bss bandinfo,
there is an issue with 5GHz association.

b4c3f34aff libertas: scan behaviour consistency improvements
When scanning for the broadcast SSID, there is no need to add the
SSID TLV (restoring the behaviour of the driver behaviour in the wext
days, confirmed in Marvell specifications).

If bssid is unspecified, the current scan code will usually fire off an
active scan probing for the specific requested SSID. However, if a scan
is ongoing (or has just finished), those scan results will be used
instead (even if that scan is totally different, e.g. a passive scan on
channel 4 for a different SSID). Fix this inconsistency by always
firing off a scan when associating without a bssid.

38ba3c57af cfg80211: Validate cipher suite against supported ciphers
Instead of using a hardcoded list of cipher suites in nl80211.c, use a
shared function in util.c to verify that the driver advertises support
for the specified cipher. This provides more accurate validation of the
values and allows vendor-specific cipher suites to be added in drivers.

6d30240e3d cfg80211: Remove strict validation of AKM suites
NL80211_ATTR_AKM_SUITES can be used to configure new AKMs, like FT or
the SHA-256 -based AKMs or FT from 802.11r/802.11w. In addition, vendor
specific AKMs could be used. The current validation code for the connect
command prevents cfg80211-based drivers from using these mechanisms even
if the driver would not actually use this AKM value (i.e., it uses
WPA/RSN IE from user space). mac80211-based drivers allow any AKM to be
used since this value is not used there.

Remove the unnecessary validation step in cfg80211 to allow drivers to
decide what AKMs are supported. In theory, we could handle this by
advertising supported AKMs, but that would not be very effective unless
we enforce all drivers (including mac80211) to advertise the set of
supported AKMs. This would require additional changes in many places
whenever a new AKM is introduced even though no actually functionality
changes may be required in most drivers.
