To track authenticated state seems to have been
a design mistake in cfg80211. It is possible to
have out of band authentication (FT), tracking
multiple authentications caused more problems
than it ever helped, and the implementation in
mac80211 is too complex.Remove all this complexity, and let userspace
do whatever it wants to, mac80211 can deal with
that just fine. Association is still tracked of
course, but authentication no longer is. Local
auth state changes are thus no longer of value,
so ignore them completely.This will also help implement SAE -- asking the
driver to do an authentication is now almost
equivalent to sending an authentication frame,
with the exception of shared key authentication
which is still handled completely.Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

The dummy STA support was added because I didn't
want to change the driver API at the time. Now
that we have state transitions triggering station
add/remove in the driver, we only call add once a
station reaches ASSOCIATED, so we can remove the
dummy station stuff again.While at it, tighten the RX check and accept only
port control (EAP) frames from the AP station if
it's not associated yet -- in other cases there's
no race.Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

Instead of maintaining separate sta_add/sta_remove
callsites, implement it in sta_state when the driver
has no sta_state implementation.The only behavioural change this should cause is in
secure mesh mode: with this the station entries will
only be created after the stations are set to AUTH.
Given which drivers support mesh, this seems to not
be a problem.Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

(based on Eliad's patch)
Add a callback to notify the low-level driver whenever
the state of a station changes. The driver is only
notified when the station is actually in the mac80211
hash table, not for pre-insert state transitions.To allow the driver to replace sta_add/remove calls
with this, call extra transitions with the NOTEXIST
state.This callback can fail, so we need to be careful in
handling it when a station is inserted, particularly
in the IBSS case where we still keep the station entry
around for mac80211 purposes.Signed-off-by: Eliad Peller

This will be used by drivers later if they
need to have stations inserted all the time,
in mac80211 has no purpose, is never used
and sta_state starts out in NONE.Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

If a station couldn't be uploaded to the driver but
is still kept (only in IBSS mode) we still shouldn't
try to program the keys for it into hardware; fix
this bug by skipping the key upload in this case.Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

Setting keys and updating TKIP keys must use the
BSS sdata (not AP_VLAN), so we translate. Move
the translation into driver-ops wrappers instead
of having it inline in the code to simplify the
normal code flow.The same can be done for sta_add/remove which
already does the translation in the wrapper.Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg
Signed-off-by: John W. Linville -
Move the station state modification right before insert,
this just makes the current code more readable (you can
tell that it's before insertion looking at a single
screenful of code) right now, but some upcoming changes
will require this.Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

This trans_ops->stop_hw leaves the RFKILL interrupt enabled,
we can call that one instead of enable_rfkill_int. By that,
we reduce the numbers of acceesses to the NIC from the upper

Now there is only one transport function that launch a specific fw:
trans_ops->start_fw. This one replaces trans_ops->start_device and
trans_ops->kick_nic. The code that actually loads the fw to the

Change the way we alloc the transport on the way.
