Hi:
skbuff: Copy csum instead of csum_start/csum_offset

Hi:
skbuff: Move new __skb_clone code into __copy_skb_header
It seems that people just keep on adding stuff to __skb_clone
instead __copy_skb_header. This is wrong as it means your brand-new
attributes won't always get copied as you intended.
This patch moves them to the right place, and adds a comment to
prevent this from happening again.

The patch moves some utility functions from mac80211 to cfg80211.
Because these functions are doing generic 802.11 operations so they
are not mac80211 specific. The moving allows some fullmac drivers
to be also benefit from these utility functions.

My first patch submission used 200ms, which I then somehow
managed to revert back to the earlier 50ms I had used for
some tests in the second patch submission -- but that was

In "mac80211: split out and decrease probe wait time" I tried
to reduce the time waiting for a probe response, but failed to
take into account the case where we are detecting beacon loss
in software -- in that case we still wait the monitoring time
rather than the probe wait time. Fix this by refactoring the
mod_timer() calls in ieee80211_associated().

The requirement for wireless stats to be atomic is now mostly
artificial since we hold the rtnl _and_ the dev_base_lock for
iterating the device list. Doing that is not required, just the
rtnl is sufficient (and the rtnl is required for other reasons
outlined in commit "wext: fix get_wireless_stats locking").
This will fix http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13344
and make things easier for drivers.

Patch to add the ability to detect drops in hardware interfaces via dropwatch.
Adds a tracepoint to net_rx_action to signal everytime a napi instance is
polled. The dropmon code then periodically checks to see if the rx_frames
counter has changed, and if so, adds a drop notification to the netlink
protocol, using the reserved all-0's vector to indicate the drop location was in
hardware, rather than somewhere in the code.

The the PACKET_ADD_MEMBERSHIP and the PACKET_DROP_MEMBERSHIP setsockopt
calls for af_packet already has all of the infrastructure needed to subscribe
to multiple mac addresses. All that is missing is a flag to say that
the address we want to listen on is a unicast address.
So introduce PACKET_MR_UNICAST and wire it up to dev_unicast_add and
dev_unicast_delete.
Additionally I noticed that errors from dev_mc_add were not propagated
from packet_dev_mc so fix that.

Currently, we will ask the driver to configure right away
when somebody changes the desired BSSID. That's totally
strange because then we will configure the driver without
even knowing whether the BSS exists. Change this to only
configure the BSSID when associated, and configure a zero
BSSID when not associated.
As a side effect, this fixes an issue with the iwlwifi
driver which doesn't implement sta_notify properly and
uses the BSSID instead and gets very confused if the
BSSID is cleared before we disassociate, which results
in the warning Marcel posted [1] and iwlwifi bug 1995 [2].

When the genIE hasn't changed there's no reason to kick
the state machine since it won't be able to do anything
new -- doing this decreases the useless work we do for
reassociating because if we do kick the state machine
it will try to find a usable BSS but there might not be
one because wpa_supplicant will only change the BSSID
a little later.
In a sense this is a workaround for userspace behaviour,
but on the other hand userspace cannot really keep track
of what the kernel currently has for genIE since any
process could have changed that while wpa_supplicant
wasn't looking.

If the AP includes our AID in the TIM IE, we need to process the
Beacon frame as far as PS is concerned (send PS-Poll or nullfunc data
with PM=0). The previous code skipped this in cases where the CRC
value did not change and it would not change if the AP continues
including our AID in the TIM..
There is no need to count the crc32 value for directed_tim with this
change, so we can remove that part. In order not to change the order
of operations (i.e., update WMM parameters prior to sending PS-Poll),
the CRC match is checked twice as only after the PS processing step,
the rest of the function is skipped if nothing changed in the Beacon.

Some applications using wireless extensions expect to be able to
remove a key that doesn't exist. One example is wpa_supplicant
which doesn't actually change behaviour when running into an
error while trying to do that, but it prints an error message
which users interpret as wpa_supplicant having problems.
The safe thing to do is not change the behaviour of wireless
extensions any more, so when the driver reports -ENOENT let
the wext bridge code return success to userspace. To guarantee
this, also document that drivers should return -ENOENT when the
key doesn't exist.

We forgot to cancel all timers in mac80211 when suspending.
In particular we forgot to deal with some things that can
cause hardware reconfiguration -- while it is down.
While at it we go ahead and add a warning in ieee80211_sta_work()
if its run while the suspend->resume cycle is in effect. This
should not happen and if it does it would indicate there is
a bug lurking in either mac80211 or mac80211 drivers.
With this now wpa_supplicant doesn't blink when I go to suspend
and resume where as before there where issues with some timers
running during the suspend->resume cycle. This caused a lot of
incorrect assumptions and would at times bring back the device
in an incoherent, but mostly recoverable, state.

The channel switch code is currently in the spectrum
management file, where arguably it belongs. However,
it is for managed mode only and uses the structures
for that mode only so having it in a more generic
file can be confusing. Additionally, my next patch
gets simpler with the code here.
When/if we ever implement this for IBSS or mesh then
we will need to rework the structures it uses anyway
at which point we could move the code back.

While the probe request poll is expected to work, it looks like it
does not always result in getting a response. The exact reason for
this is unclear, but anyway, if we do receive a Beacon frame from our
AP, there is no need to disconnect based on the probereq poll. This
seems to help keep the connection bit more stable in cases where
beacon loss is occurring semi-frequently.

The STA may drop the very first frame if it happens to be a retried
frame. This is because we maintian the last received sequence number
per TID for QoS frames and it is initialized to zero through kzalloc
during sta_info_alloc and the sequence number of the very first date
frame received would be ZERO (as per IEEE 802.11-2007, 7.1.3.4.1).
If the frame dropped happens to be an EAP Request Identity(very first
frame from the AP), then wpa_supplicnat disconnects the STA and the
whole procedure starts again.

Thanks to nl80211 userspace can be very specific upon device
configuration. Before processing the request for the new HT40
channel types (HT40- or HT40+) we need to ensure we can use them
regulatory-wise. This wasn't required with wireless extensions as
specifying the channel type wasn't not available and configuration
was done towards the end implicitly upon association or reception
of beacons from the AP. For the new nl80211 we have to check this
when configuring the interfaces explicitly.

We are not correctly listening to the regulatory max bandwidth
settings. To actually make use of it we need to redesign things
a bit. This patch does the work for that. We do this to so we
can obey to regulatory rules accordingly for use of HT40.
We end up dealing with HT40 by having two passes for each channel.
The first check will see if a 20 MHz channel fits into the channel's
center freq on a given frequency range. We check for a 20 MHz
banwidth channel as that is the maximum an individual channel
will use, at least for now. The first pass will go ahead and
check if the regulatory rule for that given center of frequency
allows 40 MHz bandwidths and we use this to determine whether
or not the channel supports HT40 or not. So to support HT40 you'll
need at a regulatory rule that allows you to use 40 MHz channels
but you're channel must also be enabled and support 20 MHz by itself.
The second pass is done after we do the regulatory checks over
an device's supported channel list. On each channel we'll check
if the control channel and the extension both:
o exist
o are enabled
o regulatory allows 40 MHz bandwidth on its frequency range
This work allows allows us to idependently check for HT40- and
HT40+.

The DHCP spec allows the server to specify the MTU. This can be useful
for netbooting with UDP-based NFS-root on a network using jumbo frames.
This patch allows the kernel IP autoconfiguration to handle this option
correctly.
It would be possible to use initramfs and add a script to set the MTU,
but that seems like a complicated solution if no initramfs is otherwise
necessary, and would bloat the kernel image more than this code would.
