Subject: [PATCH v10 0/2] P2P find phase offload

Following discussion input, I added 'flags' attribute for
cfg80211_rx_mgmt(), as separate commit since it is... separate

Now, policy for P2P device is clear - it replies probe-requests
if it can, then if driver receives probe (if FW replies to the probe,
it may be not reported to the driver), it reports via cfg80211_rx_mgmt()
indicating whether frame was replied. wpa_s now can determine whether it
need to reply on its own.

Subject: [PATCH v10 2/2] cfg80211: P2P find phase offload

Allow to implement P2P find phase in the driver/firmware.

Offload scheme designed as follows:

- Driver provide methods start_p2p_find and stop_p2p_find in the cfg80211_ops;
- Driver indicate firmware or driver responds to the probe requests by setting
feature NL80211_FEATURE_P2P_PROBE_RESP_OFFLOAD
- wpa_supplicant analyses methods supported to discover p2p offload support;
- wpa_supplicant analyses feature flags to discover p2p probe response
offload support;
to perform p2p scan, wpa_supplicant:
- perform legacy scan, through driver's cfg80211_ops 'scan' method
- configure rx management filter to get probe-request and probe-response frames
- start p2p find via driver's cfg80211_ops start_p2p_find method
- driver start p2p find with hardware and notify wpa_supplicant with
cfg80211_p2p_find_notify_start()
- driver/firmware toggle search/listen states. Received probe-request and
probe-response frames passed to the wpa_supplicant via cfg80211_rx_mgmt
- when wpa_supplicant wants to stop p2p find, it calls driver's
cfg80211_ops stop_p2p_find method. Alternatively, driver/firmware may decide
to stop p2p find. In all cases, driver notifies wpa_supplicant using
cfg80211_p2p_find_notify_end()

All driver to user space communication done through nl80211 layer.

Offloaded P2P find does not support variations like progressive scan.

It seems sufficient to say:

Just to clarify something: even if the driver reports that it supports probe response offloading, can wpas choose not to use this capability and handle all the probe requests on its own (at least for debugging)? For example in case that the probe response IE len is zero, the driver can deduce the it should not respond to probe requests.

You can use NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FREQ

Subject: [PATCH v10 1/2] cfg80211: add flags to cfg80211_rx_mgmt

Flags intended to report various auxiliary information.
Introduced flag NL80211_RXMGMT_FLAG_REPLIED to report
whether frame was replied by the device/driver.

I think you should define the bitmasks, i.e. use

NL80211_RXMGMT_FLAG_REPLIED = 1<<0,

I think that'd be clearer, and userspace doesn't even always have a
BIT() macro.

Problem is, some hardware do not let you to do so; it simply replies by itself.
NL80211_FEATURE_P2P_PROBE_RESP_OFFLOAD indicates device __can__ answer. From this,
wpa_s can conclude it may be answered by device probes that is may see or not.
It is out of scope for this commit to specify how to tell to the device to not answer
(I suppose to use debugfs for this)
