Subject: [PATCH v5 0/5] Add Mesh Channel Switch Support

These are the patches required to support Mesh Basic Service Set (MBSS)
channel switch.

The design is more or less same with the IBSS. Additional procedures
or elements that are required for mesh operation are as follow:
* Add additional information element (IE) known as Mesh Channel Switch
Parameters (MCSP) required in CSA action, beacon and probe response
frames.
* Forwarding of CSA frame if the conditions defined in the standard
are met.

Limitations:
* Channel switch is only allowed for the same band and also same channel
width from the previous setting.

These patches are reviewed and commented by Bob Copeland, Thomas Pedersen
and Johannes Berg. Jean-Pierre has also commented on typos error. Any
further comments are welcomed.

These patches also include refactoring the ieee80211_parse_ch_switch_ie to
reduce the number of function parameters.

Testing:
The patches are tested using ath9k.

Chun-Yeow Yeoh (5):
mac80211: process the CSA frame for mesh accordingly
{nl,cfg,mac}80211: enable the triggering of CSA frame in mesh

> If this fails, do we leak the CSA settings?
If failed, beacon won't include the CSA settings. But If there is any
other calling mesh_rebuild_beacon and succeed, the it will be included
up if the channel switch count is not expired. At the same time, CSA
action frame is also transmitted, so others may use this to start the
CSA process.

Am I answer your question?

Subject: [PATCH v5 4/5] {nl,cfg,mac}80211: implement mesh channel switch userspace API

Implement the required procedures for mesh channel switching as defined
in the IEEE Std 802.11-2012 section 10.9.8.4.3 and also handle the CSA
and MCSP elements as followed:
* Add the function for updating the beacon and probe response frames
with CSA and MCSP elements during the period of switching to the new
channel. Both CSA and MCSP elements must be included in beacon and
probe response frames until the intended channel switch time.
* The ifmsh->csa_settings is set to NULL and the CSA and MCSP elements
will then be removed from the beacon or probe response frames once the
new channel is switched to.

Subject: [PATCH v5 1/5] mac80211: process the CSA frame for mesh accordingly

Process the CSA frame according to the procedures define in IEEE Std
802.11-2012 section 10.9.8.4.3 as follow:
* The mesh channel switch parameters element (MCSP) must be availabe.
* If the MCSP's TTL is 1, drop the frame but still process the CSA.
* If the MCSP's precedence value is less than or equal to the current
precedence value, drop the frame and do not process the CSA.
* The CSA frame is forwarded after TTL is decremented by 1 and the
initiator field is set to 0. Transmit restrict field and others
are maintained as is.
* No beacon or probe response frame are handled here.

Also, introduce the debug message used for mesh CSA purpose.

If this fails, do we leak the CSA settings?

Subject: [PATCH v5 2/5] {nl,cfg,mac}80211: enable the triggering of CSA frame in mesh

Allow the triggering of CSA frame using mesh interface. The
rules are more or less same with IBSS, such as not allowed to
change between the band and channel width has to be same from
the previous mode. Also, move the ieee80211_send_action_csa
to a common space so that it can be re-used by mesh interface.
