[PATCH v10 0/5] CSA beacon count changes

[PATCH v10 0/5] CSA beacon count changes

[Luciano Coelho]

A couple more changes, this time only in the commit logs.

In v10:

* s/ieee80211_csa_beacon/ieee80211_assign_beacon/ in the commit
  messages (thanks Simon);
* remove stray Change-Id tags.

In v9:

* fix lock in ieee80211_ibss_finish_csa();
* remove double check for sdata_running() (thanks Simon);
* check cfg80211_chandef_identical before calling
  ieee80211_channel_switch() to avoid disconnecting;

In v8:

* removed bogus sdata_unlock from ieee80211_csa_finalize();

In v7:

* (hopefully) a fix for the kfree_rcu() oops (thanks Chun-Yeow);
* removed stray extra space at the top of cfg.c (thanks Johannes);
* removed the TODO action frame comment for mesh and IBSS (thanks Simon);

Cheers,
Luca.

[PATCH v10 5/5] mac80211: only set CSA beacon when at least one beacon must be transmitted

[Luciano Coelho]

A beacon should never have a Channel Switch Announcement information
element with a count of 0, because a count of 1 means switch just
before the next beacon.  So, if a count of 0 was valid in a beacon, it
would have been transmitted in the next channel already, which is
useless.  A CSA count equal to zero is only meaningful in action
frames or probe_responses.

Fix the ieee80211_csa_is_complete() and ieee80211_update_csa()
functions accordingly.

With a CSA count of 0, we won't transmit any CSA beacons, because the
switch will happen before the next TBTT.  To avoid extra work and
potential confusion in the drivers, complete the CSA immediately,
instead of waiting for the driver to call ieee80211_csa_finish().

To keep things simpler, we also switch immediately when the CSA count
is 1, while in theory we should delay the switch until just before the
next TBTT.

Additionally, move the ieee80211_csa_finish() function to cfg.c,
where it makes more sense.

These don't apply (any more, could be due to merging wireless-next?). I
don't trust myself to do the needed fixups since there are a lot of odd
mesh conflicts...

However, patches 1 and 2 were fine, so I did take those.
