When we pre-populate the skb->head for the stack, we only pull in the 802.11 header including crypto (assuming the packet isn't short enough to be in there completely.) This is fine, but in ieee80211_data_to_8023() we later unconditionally pull 8 more bytes for the SNAP header and ethertype field (except for mesh or 4-addr, where it's even more, but we don't care as much about them). Avoid the additional later pull by pulling in those 8 bytes here.

This is fine, but in many cases we'll pull in the crypto headers pretty much immediately afterwards, so to avoid that pull in the crypto header early.

In the original driver, we decided to not implement WEP RX hardware offload because of a quirk with the firmware API - it allows setting global WEP keys that then get used for all virtual interfaces, which is clearly wrong if more than one exists, and it allows setting per- station keys but then separates multicast and unicast keys. In order to implement WEP RX hardware offload, work around these limitations by uploading each WEP key twice, once as multicast and once as unicast, but point them both to the same key slot (offset) and use the same key material so the slot overwrite on the second upload doesn't actually change anything. Upon removal, also remove the key twice so the station no longer references it. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com>

Add a flow that handles the requests to cancel the roc time event, that has been triggered via the aux framework. The roc for bss is different than the roc for p2p devices, and is done via the aux framework using the aux queue, thus requires a different flow to cancel the time event.

We were toggling the wrong bit when we reset the device, fix that. Moreover, since the reset can take time, we need to wait before we set the rfkill interrupt. Not doing so can be racy since the driver is enabling the rfkill interrupt while the device is resetting which will clear all the registers including the CSR_INT_MASK. This can basically lead to a situation where we don't enable the rfkill interrupt. If that happens, the user will not be able to re-enable the device when de-asserting rfkill.

For background and scheduled scan, using the new unified scan API, support random MAC address scanning. Unfortunately, the firmware right now doesn't support randomising itself, so for now do it on the host - we'll change this once the firmware supports randomising the address for each scan iteration using the address/mask.

This API uses second CPU scan commands, and can support multiple simultaneous scans. Adding the new API, and adding new mechanisms to deal with up to 8 simultaneous scans instead of the old scan status.

Our firmware scheduler suffers from false wake-up on 500 time units. that is if the dtim interval exceeds 500 time units, the fw wakes up, understands that the next wake-up event is still ahead, and if this event is more than 10msec in the future - goes back to sleep, otherwise - stay awake. For example, say that the beacon interval is 101 and the dtim period is 5, the dtim interval is 101 x 5 = 505, and we will stay awake for those extra 5msec. So on the one hand the dtim interval should be congruent to the beacon interval times the dtim period, and on the other should minimize the false wake-ups event. This change applies only to D0/D3 power modes. Signed-off-by: Avri Altman <avri.altman@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com>

The deferred d0i3 exit is currently implemented in the resume op, which is called when mac80211 starts its resume process. However, mac80211 still doesn't handle frames at this stage, which results in frames being dropped. Move the deferred d0i3 handling to the reconfig_complete callback, in order to make sure mac80211 is fully available at this point.
