[PATCH v6 0/5] Enable additional channels for use

[PATCH v6 0/5] Enable additional channels for use

[Ilan Peer]

Some additional documentation fixes.

------

As before, this series addresses the option of enabling additional channels for
use based on the following relaxations:

1. Indoor operation, where a device can use channels requiring indoor
   operation, subject to that it can guarantee indoor operation.
2. Concurrent GO operation, where devices may instantiate a P2P GO
   while they are under the guidance of an authorized master.

The series includes:

* Some clarification (mainly in documentation) about the intended usage of
  channels marked as INDOOR_ONLY and CONCURRENT GO.
* Mapping of NL80211_RFF_NO_OUTDOOR to NL80211_CHAN_INDOOR_ONLY
* Support for a user hint that the platform is operating in an indoor
  environment, i.e., channel marked as INDOOR_ONLY can be used.
* Allow initiating radiation on channel marked with INDOOR_ONLY also
  for scanning an frame injection in monitor mode.
* Some additional fixes for comments I got.

Following is an example of a possible channel map that can be used to allow
the INDOOR_ONLY and CONCURRENT_GO relaxations. Note that:

* Channels 12,13 are marked as Concurrent GO, so even in the lack of exact
  information about the current regulatory domain, these channels can be used
  for GO instantiation based on the concurrent GO relaxation.
* The above is also true for channels 149-165 (a.k.a U-NII 3).
* Channels 36-48 (a.k.a thee U-NII 1), are marked both with Concurrent GO and
  indoor only. While the Concurrent GO can be used as described above, the
  indoor only setting allows to use these channels given the platform is
  identified as an indoor one, i.e., media server.

[PATCH v6 1/5] cfg80211: Add indoor only and GO concurrent channel attributes

[Ilan Peer]

From: David Spinadel <david.spinadel@intel.com>

The FCC are clarifying some soft configuration requirements,
which among other include the following:

1. Indoor operation, where a device can use channels requiring indoor
   operation, subject to that it can guarantee indoor operation,
   i.e., the device is connected to AC Power or the device is under
   the control of a local master that is acting as an AP and is
   connected to AC Power.
2. Concurrent GO operation, where devices may instantiate a P2P GO
   while they are under the guidance of an authorized master. For example,
   on a channel on which a BSS is connected to an authorized master, i.e.,
   with DFS and radar detection capability in the UNII band.

See https://apps.fcc.gov/eas/comments/GetPublishedDocument.html?id=327&tn=528122

Add support for advertising Indoor-only and GO-Concurrent channel
properties.

[PATCH v6 3/5] cfg80211: Enable GO operation on additional channels

[Ilan Peer]

Allow GO operation on a channel marked with IEEE80211_CHAN_GO_CONCURRENT
iff there is an active station interface that is associated to
an AP operating on the same channel in the 2 GHz band or the same UNII band
(in the 5 GHz band). This relaxation is not allowed if the channel is
marked with IEEE80211_CHAN_RADAR.

Note that this is a permissive approach to the FCC definitions,
that require a clear assessment that the device operating the AP is
an authorized master, i.e., with radar detection and DFS capabilities.

It is assumed that such restrictions are enforced by user space.
Furthermore, it is assumed, that if the conditions that allowed for
the operation of the GO on such a channel change, i.e., the station
interface disconnected from the AP, it is the responsibility of user
space to evacuate the GO from the channel.

[PATCH v6 5/5] cfg80211: Enable GO operation on indoor channels

[Ilan Peer]

Allow GO operation on a channel marked with IEEE80211_CHAN_INDOOR_ONLY
iff there is a user hint indicating that the platform is operating in
an indoor environment, i.e., the platform is a printer or media center
device.

RE: [PATCH v6 0/5] Enable additional channels for use

[Peer, Ilan]

Hi,

Any comments on the last series?

Thanks in advance,

Ilan.

> 1. Indoor operation, where a device can use channels requiring indoor
>    operation, subject to that it can guarantee indoor operation.
> 2. Concurrent GO operation, where devices may instantiate a P2P GO
>    while they are under the guidance of an authorized master.
> 
> The series includes:

> * Some clarification (mainly in documentation) about the intended usage of
>   channels marked as INDOOR_ONLY and CONCURRENT GO.
> * Mapping of NL80211_RFF_NO_OUTDOOR to
> NL80211_CHAN_INDOOR_ONLY
> * Support for a user hint that the platform is operating in an indoor
>   environment, i.e., channel marked as INDOOR_ONLY can be used.
> * Allow initiating radiation on channel marked with INDOOR_ONLY also
>   for scanning an frame injection in monitor mode.
> * Some additional fixes for comments I got.
> 
> Following is an example of a possible channel map that can be used to allow
> the INDOOR_ONLY and CONCURRENT_GO relaxations. Note that:
> 
> * Channels 12,13 are marked as Concurrent GO, so even in the lack of exact

> used
>   for GO instantiation based on the concurrent GO relaxation.
> * The above is also true for channels 149-165 (a.k.a U-NII 3).
> * Channels 36-48 (a.k.a thee U-NII 1), are marked both with Concurrent GO
> and
