This patch adds the new struct ieee80211_rate_status and replaces
'struct rate_info *rate' in ieee80211_tx_status with pointer and length
annotation.
The struct ieee80211_rate_status allows to:
(1) receive tx power status feedback for transmit power control (TPC)
per packet or packet retry
(2) dynamic mapping of wifi chip specific multi-rate retry (mrr)
chains with different lengths
(3) increase the limit of annotatable rate indices to support
IEEE802.11ac rate sets and beyond
ieee80211_tx_info, control and status buffer, and ieee80211_tx_rate
cannot be used to achieve these goals due to fixed size limitations.
Our new struct contains a struct rate_info to annotate the rate that was
used, retry count of the rate and tx power. It is intended for all
information related to RC and TPC that needs to be passed from driver to
mac80211 and its RC/TPC algorithms like Minstrel_HT. It corresponds to
one stage in an mrr. Multiple subsequent instances of this struct can be
included in struct ieee80211_tx_status via a pointer and a length variable.
Those instances can be allocated on-stack. The former reference to a single
instance of struct rate_info is replaced with our new annotation.
An extension is introduced to struct ieee80211_hw. There are two new
members called 'tx_power_levels' and 'max_txpwr_levels_idx' acting as a
tx power level table. When a wifi device is registered, the driver shall
supply all supported power levels in this list. This allows to support
several quirks like differing power steps in power level ranges or
alike. TPC can use this for algorithm and thus be designed more abstract
instead of handling all possible step widths individually.
Further mandatory changes in status.c, mt76 and ath11k drivers due to the
removal of 'struct rate_info *rate' are also included.
status.c already uses the information in ieee80211_tx_status->rate in
radiotap, this is now changed to use ieee80211_rate_status->rate_idx.
mt76 driver already uses struct rate_info to pass the tx rate to status
path. The new members of the ieee80211_tx_status are set to NULL and 0
because the previously passed rate is not relevant to rate control and
accurate information is passed via tx_info->status.rates.
For ath11k, the txrate can be passed via this struct because ath11k uses
firmware RC and thus the information does not interfere with software RC.

Currently in mac80211 each STA object is represented
using sta_info datastructure with the associated
STA specific information and drivers access ieee80211_sta
part of it.
With MLO (Multi Link Operation) support being added
in 802.11be standard, though the association is logically
with a single Multi Link capable STA, at the physical level
communication can happen via different advertised
links (uniquely identified by Channel, operating class,
BSSID) and hence the need to handle multiple link
STA parameters within a composite sta_info object
called the MLD STA. The different link STA part of
MLD STA are identified using the link address which can
be same or different as the MLD STA address and unique
link id based on the link vif.
To support extension of such a model, the sta_info
datastructure is modified to hold multiple link STA
objects with link specific params currently within
sta_info moved to this new structure. Similarly this is
done for ieee80211_sta as well which will be accessed
within mac80211 as well as by drivers, hence trivial
driver changes are expected to support this.
For current non MLO supported drivers, only one link STA
is present and link information is accessed via 'deflink'
member.
For MLO drivers, we still need to define the APIs etc. to
get the correct link ID and access the correct part of
the station info.
Currently in mac80211, all link STA info are accessed directly
via deflink. These will be updated to access via link pointers
indexed by link id with MLO support patches, with link id
being 0 for non MLO supported cases.
Except for couple of macro related changes, below spatch takes
care of updating mac80211 and driver code to access to the
link STA info via deflink.

Currently in case of target hardware restart, we just reconfig and
re-enable the security keys and enable the network queues to start
data traffic back from where it was interrupted.
Many ath10k wifi chipsets have sequence numbers for the data
packets assigned by firmware and the mac sequence number will
restart from zero after target hardware restart leading to mismatch
in the sequence number expected by the remote peer vs the sequence
number of the frame sent by the target firmware.
This mismatch in sequence number will cause out-of-order packets
on the remote peer and all the frames sent by the device are dropped
until we reach the sequence number which was sent before we restarted
the target hardware
In order to fix this, we trigger a sta disconnect, in case of target
hw restart. After this there will be a fresh connection and thereby
avoiding the dropping of frames by remote peer.
The right fix would be to pull the entire data path into the host
which is not feasible or would need lots of complex changes and
will still be inefficient.

This is needed for adding SDIO support to the rtw88 driver. Some

Introduce TWT action frames parsing support to mac80211.
Currently just individual TWT agreement are support in AP mode.
Whenever the AP receives a TWT action frame from an associated client,
after performing sanity checks, it will notify the underlay driver with
requested parameters in order to check if they are supported and if there
is enough room for a new agreement. The driver is expected to set the
agreement result and report it to mac80211.
Drivers supporting this have two new callbacks:
- add_twt_setup (mandatory)
- twt_teardown_request (optional)
mac80211 will send an action frame reply according to the result
reported by the driver.

This switches the airtime scheduler in mac80211 to use a virtual
time-based scheduler instead of the round-robin scheduler used before.
This has a couple of advantages:
- No need to sync up the round-robin scheduler in firmware/hardware with
the round-robin airtime scheduler.
- If several stations are eligible for transmission we can schedule both
of them; no need to hard-block the scheduling rotation until the head
of the queue has used up its quantum.
- The check of whether a station is eligible for transmission becomes
simpler (in ieee80211_txq_may_transmit()).
The drawback is that scheduling becomes slightly more expensive, as we
need to maintain an rbtree of TXQs sorted by virtual time. This means
that ieee80211_register_airtime() becomes O(logN) in the number of
currently scheduled TXQs because it can change the order of the
scheduled stations. We mitigate this overhead by only resorting when a
station changes position in the tree, and hopefully N rarely grows too
big (it's only TXQs currently backlogged, not all associated stations),
so it shouldn't be too big of an issue.
To prevent divisions in the fast path, we maintain both station sums and
pre-computed reciprocals of the sums. This turns the fast-path operation
into a multiplication, with divisions only happening as the number of
active stations change (to re-compute the current sum of all active
station weights). To prevent this re-computation of the reciprocal from
happening too frequently, we use a time-based notion of station
activity, instead of updating the weight every time a station gets
scheduled or de-scheduled. As queues can oscillate between empty and
occupied quite frequently, this can significantly cut down on the number
of re-computations. It also has the added benefit of making the station
airtime calculation independent on whether the queue happened to have
drained at the time an airtime value was accounted.

The commit cb17ed29a7 ("mac80211: parse radiotap header when selecting Tx
queue") moved the code to validate the radiotap header from
ieee80211_monitor_start_xmit to ieee80211_parse_tx_radiotap. This made is
possible to share more code with the new Tx queue selection code for
injected frames. But at the same time, it now required the call of
ieee80211_parse_tx_radiotap at the beginning of functions which wanted to
handle the radiotap header. And this broke the rate parser for radiotap
header parser.
The radiotap parser for rates is operating most of the time only on the
data in the actual radiotap header. But for the 802.11a/b/g rates, it must
also know the selected band from the chandef information. But this
information is only written to the ieee80211_tx_info at the end of the
ieee80211_monitor_start_xmit - long after ieee80211_parse_tx_radiotap was
already called. The info->band information was therefore always 0
(NL80211_BAND_2GHZ) when the parser code tried to access it.
For a 5GHz only device, injecting a frame with 802.11a rates would cause a
NULL pointer dereference because local->hw.wiphy->bands[NL80211_BAND_2GHZ]
would most likely have been NULL when the radiotap parser searched for the
correct rate index of the driver.

This will allow the low level driver to get the wdev during
the add_interface flow.
In order to do that, remove a few checks from there and do
not return NULL for vifs that were not yet added to the
driver. Note that all the current callers of this helper
function assume that the vif already exists:
- The callers from the drivers already have a vif pointer.
Before this change, ieee80211_vif_to_wdev would return NULL
in some cases, but those callers don't even check they
get a non-NULL pointer from ieee80211_vif_to_wdev.
- The callers from net/mac80211/cfg.c assume the vif is
already added to the driver as well.
So, this change has no impact on existing callers of this
helper function.

interface(s) would be in 802.11 format and thus not have the

RX_FLAG_ONLY_MONITOR set.

Currently, _everything_ in cfg80211 holds the RTNL, and if you
have a slow USB device (or a few) you can get some bad lock
contention on that.
Fix that by re-adding a mutex to each wiphy/rdev as we had at
some point, so we have locking for the wireless_dev lists and
all the other things in there, and also so that drivers still
don't have to worry too much about it (they still won't get
parallel calls for a single device).
Then, we can restrict the RTNL to a few cases where we add or
remove interfaces and really need the added protection. Some
of the global list management still also uses the RTNL, since
we need to have it anyway for netdev management, but we only
hold the RTNL for very short periods of time here.

Allow drivers to request that interface-iterator does NOT iterate
over interfaces that are not sdata-in-driver. This will allow
us to fix crashes in ath10k (and possibly other drivers).
To summarize Johannes' explanation:
Consider
add interface wlan0
add interface wlan1
iterate active interfaces -> wlan0 wlan1
add interface wlan2
iterate active interfaces -> wlan0 wlan1 wlan2
If you apply this scenario to a restart, which ought to be functionally
equivalent to the normal startup, just compressed in time, you're
basically saying that today you get
add interface wlan0
add interface wlan1
iterate active interfaces -> wlan0 wlan1 wlan2 << problem here
add interface wlan2
iterate active interfaces -> wlan0 wlan1 wlan2
which yeah, totally seems wrong.
But fixing that to be
add interface wlan0
add interface wlan1
iterate active interfaces ->
<nothing>
add interface wlan2
iterate active interfaces -> <nothing>
(or
maybe -> wlan0 wlan1 wlan2 if the reconfig already completed)
This is also at least somewhat wrong, but better to not iterate
over something that exists in the driver than iterate over something
that does not. Originally the first issue was causing crashes in
testing with lots of station vdevs on an ath10k radio, combined
with firmware crashing.
I ran with a similar patch for years with no obvious bad results,
including significant testing with ath9k and ath10k.
