      mac80211: prepare sta handling for MLO support · 046d2e7c
      Sriram R authored 
      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.

      mac80211: minstrel_ht: fix where rate stats are stored (fixes debugfs output) · 5c6dd7bd
      Peter Seiderer authored 
      Using an ath9k card the debugfs output of minstrel_ht looks like the following
(note the zero values for the first four rates sum-of success/attempts):

             best    ____________rate__________    ____statistics___    _____last____    ______sum-of________

Average # of aggregated frames per A-MPDU: 1.0

Debugging showed that the rate statistics for the first four rates where
stored in the MINSTREL_CCK_GROUP instead of the MINSTREL_OFDM_GROUP because
in minstrel_ht_get_stats() the supported check was not honoured as done in
various other places, e.g net/mac80211/rc80211_minstrel_ht_debugfs.c:

 74                 if (!(mi->supported[i] & BIT(j)))
 75                         continue;

With the patch applied the output looks good:

              best    ____________rate__________    ____statistics___    _____last____    ______sum-of________

      nl80211: show SSID for P2P_GO interfaces · a75971bc
      Johannes Berg authored 
      There's no real reason not to send the SSID to userspace
when it requests information about P2P_GO, it is, in that
respect, exactly the same as AP interfaces. Fix that.
