Javier Cardona 2a4ffa4c89 mac80211_hwsim: Fix rate control by correctly reporting transmission counts
Drivers need to report the number of transmission attempts for each rate
as well as to terminate the rate array with -1.  The in-kernel datapath
of hwsim simulates a perfect medium, therefore the driver only needs to
report that the first transmission attempt was sucessfully completed at
the most favorable rate.

Rate control is working again for this driver.  Tested mesh mode with
minstrel.

Ashok Nagarajan 70c33eaae7 {nl,cfg,mac}80211: Allow user to see/configure HT protection mode
This patch introduces a new mesh configuration parameter "ht_opmode" and will
allow user to check the current HT protection mode selected. Users could
configure the protection mode by the command "iw mesh_iface set mesh_param
mesh_ht_protection_mode=2". The default protection mode of mesh is set to
non-HT mixed mode.

Ashok Nagarajan 57aac7c51c mac80211: Implement HT mixed protection mode
Section 9.23.3.5 of IEEE 80211s standard describes the protection rules for
HT mesh STA in a MBSS. Three HT protection modes are supported for now:

non-HT mixed mode - is selected if any non-HT peers are present in our MBSS.
20MHz-protection mode - is selected if all peers in our 20/40MHz MBSS support
			HT and atleast one HT20 peer is present.
no-protection mode - is selected otherwise.

This is a limited implementation of 9.23.3.5, which only considers mesh peers
when determining the HT protection mode. Station's channel_type needs to be
maintained.

Emmanuel Grumbach ef9456a85d cfg80211: fix BSS comparison
Since the BSS table is organized in a RB tree, the BSSs need to be
comparable. This means that we must define a < and > operator to
the BSS object.
compare_ethr_addr isn't enough since it returns only a binary value.

Since Felix's

cfg80211: use compare_ether_addr on MAC addresses instead of memcmp

    Because of the constant size and guaranteed 16 bit alignment, the inline
    compare_ether_addr function is much cheaper than calling memcmp.

The BSS table is corrupted: rb_find_bss can't find the bss.
As a result BSSes are duplicated in the BSS table, and we get stuck
while probing an AP before associating (in STA mode).

Franky Lin ba89bf1961 brcmfmac: add out of band interrupt support
Some sdio host controllers do not support real in band interrupt.
Software polling mode as a replacement is not fast enough for
high throughput and new features. Also some in band interrupts
do not support host wake up on embedded platform even when they
are real physical interrupts. Therefore out of band (oob)
interrupt mechanism is implemented for these scenarios.

To provide oob irq number and flags used for irq registration in
brcmfmac, a platform device contains irq resource must be
registered in board specific code.

Here is an example of platform device structure:
struct resource brcmf_sdio_res[] = {
	{
		.start	= GPIO_BRCMF_SDIO_OOB_NUM,
		.end	= GPIO_BRCMF_SDIO_OOB_NUM,
		.flags  = IORESOURCE_IRQ | IORESOURCE_IRQ_HIGHLEVEL,
	}
};
struct platform_device brcmf_sdio_device = {
	.name		= "brcmf_sdio_pd",
	.id		= -1,
	.num_resources	= ARRAY_SIZE(brcmf_sdio_res),
	.resource	= brcmf_sdio_res,
};

This is a cut and paste mistake, sizeof(struct mib_local) was intended
instead of sizeof(struct mib_phy).  The call to at76_get_mib() uses
sizeof(struct mib_local) correctly, although I changed that to
sizeof(*m) for style reasons after discussion with some of the wireless
maintainers.

The current code works fine because mib_phy structs are larger than
mib_local structs.  But we may as well clean it up.

Do not assume we have our subsystem including this for us,
at least for older kernels this is not true. Lets just be
explicit about this requirement for the usage of wake_up().

Pablo Neira Ayuso d16cf20e2f netfilter: remove ip_queue support
This patch removes ip_queue support which was marked as obsolete
years ago. The nfnetlink_queue modules provides more advanced
user-space packet queueing mechanism.

This patch also removes capability code included in SELinux that
refers to ip_queue. Otherwise, we break compilation.

Several warning has been sent regarding this to the mailing list
in the past month without anyone rising the hand to stop this
with some strong argument.

Pablo Neira Ayuso 6714cf5465 netfilter: nf_conntrack: fix explicit helper attachment and NAT
Explicit helper attachment via the CT target is broken with NAT
if non-standard ports are used. This problem was hidden behind
the automatic helper assignment routine. Thus, it becomes more
noticeable now that we can disable the automatic helper assignment
with Eric Leblond's:

9e8ac5a netfilter: nf_ct_helper: allow to disable automatic helper assignment

Basically, nf_conntrack_alter_reply asks for looking up the helper
up if NAT is enabled. Unfortunately, we don't have the conntrack
template at that point anymore.

Since we don't want to rely on the automatic helper assignment,
we can skip the second look-up and stick to the helper that was
attached by iptables. With the CT target, the user is in full
control of helper attachment, thus, the policy is to trust what
the user explicitly configures via iptables (no automatic magic
anymore).

Interestingly, this bug was hidden by the automatic helper look-up
code. But it can be easily trigger if you attach the helper in
a non-standard port, eg.

iptables -I PREROUTING -t raw -p tcp --dport 8888 \
	-j CT --helper ftp

And you disabled the automatic helper assignment.

I added the IPS_HELPER_BIT that allows us to differenciate between
a helper that has been explicitly attached and those that have been
automatically assigned. I didn't come up with a better solution
(having backward compatibility in mind).

Kelvie Wong 9768e1ace4 netfilter: nf_ct_expect: partially implement ctnetlink_change_expect
This refreshes the "timeout" attribute in existing expectations if one is
given.

The use case for this would be for userspace helpers to extend the lifetime
of the expectation when requested, as this is not possible right now
without deleting/recreating the expectation.

I use this specifically for forwarding DCERPC traffic through:

DCERPC has a port mapper daemon that chooses a (seemingly) random port for
future traffic to go to. We expect this traffic (with a reasonable
timeout), but sometimes the port mapper will tell the client to continue
using the same port. This allows us to extend the expectation accordingly.
