Current mac80211 won't parsing puncturing bitmap when process EHT Operation element in 6 GHz band or Bandwidth Indication element. This leads to puncturing bitmap cannot be updated in related situations, such as connecting to an EHT AP in 6 GHz band. So supplement parsing of puncturing bitmap for these elements.

2024-02-08wifi: mac80211: refactor STA CSA parsing flowsMichael-CY Lee
The new Wi-Fi Standard (IEEE Std 802.11-2020 9.4.2.160) specifies that the Wide Bandwidth Channel Switch (WBCS) Element subfields have the same definitions as VHT operation information if the operating band is not S1G. The problem comes when the BSS is in 6 GHz band, the STA parses the WBCS Element by ieee80211_chandef_vht_oper(), which checks the capabilities for HT/VHT mode, not HE/EHT mode. This patch refactors STA CSA parsing flow so that the corresponding capabilities can be checked. Also, it adds the way to use op_class in ECSA Element to build a new chandef. In summary, the new steps for STA to handle CSA event are: 1. build the new chandef from one of the CSA-related (Sub)Elements in following order, - Bandwidth Indication (Sub)Element - Wide Bandwidth Channel Switch (Sub)Element - Operating class in Extended Channel Switch Announcement Element - Channel Switch Announcement Element 2. convert the new chandef into operation information according to the operating band in order to check if the new chandef fits STA's capabilities. 3. downgrade the bandwidth until current bandwidth is not disabled.

2024-02-08wifi: mac80211: introduce 'channel request'Johannes Berg
For channel contexts, mac80211 currently uses the cfg80211 chandef struct (control channel, center freq(s), width) to define towards drivers and internally how these behave. In fact, there are _two_ such structs used, where the min_def can reduce bandwidth according to the stations connected. Unfortunately, with EHT this is longer be sufficient, at least not for all hardware. EHT requires that non-AP STAs that are connected to an AP with a lower bandwidth than it (the AP) advertises (e.g. 160 MHz STA connected to 320 MHz AP) still be able to receive downlink OFDMA and respond to trigger frames for uplink OFDMA that specify the position and bandwidth for the non-AP STA relative to the channel the AP is using. Therefore, they need to be aware of this, and at least for some hardware (e.g. Intel) this awareness is in the hardware. As a result, use of the "same" channel may need to be split over two channel contexts where they differ by the AP being used. As a first step, introduce a concept of a channel request ('chanreq') for each interface, to control the context it requests. This step does nothing but reorganise the code, so that later the AP's chandef can be added to the request in order to handle the EHT case described above.

2024-02-08wifi: mac80211: clean up HE 6 GHz and EHT chandef parsingJohannes Berg
In the code we currently check for support 80+80, 160 and 320 channel widths, but really the way this should be (and is otherwise) handled is that we compute the highest channel bandwidth given there, and then cut it down to what we support. This is also needed for wider bandwidth OFDMA support. Change the code to remove this limitation and always parse the highest possible channel width.

2024-02-08wifi: mac80211: clean up connection processJohannes Berg
Rewrite the station-side connection handling. The connection flags (IEEE80211_DISABLE_*) are rather confusing, and they're not always maintained well. Additionally, for wider-bandwidth OFDMA support we need to know the precise bandwidth of the AP, which is currently somewhat difficult. Rewrite this to have a 'mode' (S1G/legacy/HT/...) and a limit on the bandwidth. This is not entirely clean because some of those modes aren't completely sequenced (as this assumes in some places), e.g. VHT doesn't exist on 2.4 GHz, but HE does. However, it still simplifies things and gives us a good idea what we're operating as, so we can parse elements accordingly etc. This leaves a FIXME for puncturing, this is addressed in a later patch.

2018-02-19mac80211: Do not disconnect on invalid operating classIlan Peer
Some APs include a non global operating class in their extended channel switch information element. In such a case, as the operating class is not known, mac80211 would decide to disconnect. However the specification states that the operating class needs to be taken from Annex E, but it does not specify from which table it should be taken, so it is valid for an AP to use a non global operating class. To avoid possibly unneeded disconnection, in such a case ignore the operating class and assume that the current band is used, and if the resulting channel and band configuration is invalid disconnect.

2014-10-29mac80211: use secondary channel offset IE also beacons during CSALuciano Coelho
If we are switching from an HT40+ to an HT40- channel (or vice-versa), we need the secondary channel offset IE to specify what is the post-CSA offset to be used. This applies both to beacons and to probe responses. In ieee80211_parse_ch_switch_ie() we were ignoring this IE from beacons and using the *current* HT information IE instead. This was causing us to use the same offset as before the switch. Fix that by using the secondary channel offset IE also for beacons and don't ever use the pre-switch offset. Additionally, remove the "beacon" argument from ieee80211_parse_ch_switch_ie(), since it's not needed anymore.
