This series has a list of changes to kernel and userspace to start addressing
DFS region support. I've cheated and figured out a way to alter the current
regulatory database in such a way that it remains backwards compatible with
older databases so that no new CRDAs are required and we don't have to provide
two releases for old kernels and newer kernels for wireless-regdb updates.
In the end we end up passing the DFS region to the drivers. In terms of our DFS
development roadmap this covers parts I and II as promissed that I would take care
of by tomorrow, and leaves open now the chance for developers to start working
on part III: "Where do we stuff DFS parameters for each region":
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/developers/DFS
In tomorrow's meeting we can cover who is going to work on part III. People who
want to work on part III can start using these patches on their systems.
John, lets wait to merge these until Wednesday, I post these in patch form as I
think they are ready but tomorrow's discussions may push us to alter this a
bit, not sure. I will also review what we have done here with Michael Green so
he is on the same page.

To support DFS we add the three known DFS regions which countries
can support. In order to not modify the regulatory database scheme
in an incompatible way we use some two pad bytes which were unused
for this. This lets us later also add some more bits for general
country specific regulatory data.
We keep the regulatory database intact as otherwise older CRDA
versions will not read new regulatory file updates. Instead of
requiring new CRDA version out in the field we can treat this
as a regulatory update and simply have users who want DFS master
support to upgrade their CRDA. We'll treat the DFS region assignemnts
as a simple regulatory update.

This lets us pick up the new country regulatory flags.
This will later be used to inform of drivers later of
DFS parameters.

+ * Frame transmission and registration support exists to allow userspace

+ * that are not being handled by the kernel. This includes, for example,
+ * certain classes of action frames that cannot be handled in the kernel

+ * Frame registration is done on a per-interface basis and registrations
+ * cannot be removed other than by closing the socket. It is possible to
+ * specify a registration filter to register, for example, only for a
+ * certain type of action frame. In particular with action frames, those
+ * that userspace registers for will not be returned as unhandled by the
+ * driver, so that the registered application has to take responsibility
+ * for doing that.
+ *
+ * The type of frame that can be registered for is also dependent on the
+ * driver and interface type. The frame types are advertised in wiphy
+ * attributes so applications know what to expect.
+ *
+ * NOTE: When an interface changes type while registrations are active,
+ * these registrations are ignored until the interface type is
+ * changed again. This means that changing the interface type can
+ * lead to a situation that couldn't otherwise be produced, but
+ * any such registrations will be dormant in the sense that they
+ * will not be serviced, i.e. they will not receive any frames.
+ *
+ * Frame transmission allows userspace to send for example the required

+ * the beacon hint was processed.
+ *
+ * @NL80211_CMD_AUTHENTICATE: authentication request and notification.
+ * This command is used both as a command (request to authenticate) and
+ * as an event on the "mlme" multicast group indicating completion of the
+ * authentication process.
+ * When used as a command, %NL80211_ATTR_IFINDEX is used to identify the
+ * interface. %NL80211_ATTR_MAC is used to specify PeerSTAAddress (and
+ * BSSID in case of station mode). %NL80211_ATTR_SSID is used to specify
+ * the SSID (mainly for association, but is included in authentication
+ * request, too, to help BSS selection. %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FREQ is used
+ * to specify the frequence of the channel in MHz. %NL80211_ATTR_AUTH_TYPE
+ * is used to specify the authentication type. %NL80211_ATTR_IE is used to
+ * define IEs (VendorSpecificInfo, but also including RSN IE and FT IEs)
+ * to be added to the frame.
+ * When used as an event, this reports reception of an Authentication
+ * frame in station and IBSS modes when the local MLME processed the
+ * frame, i.e., it was for the local STA and was received in correct
+ * state. This is similar to MLME-AUTHENTICATE.confirm primitive in the
+ * MLME SAP interface (kernel providing MLME, userspace SME). The
+ * included %NL80211_ATTR_FRAME attribute contains the management frame
+ * (including both the header and frame body, but not FCS). This event is
+ * also used to indicate if the authentication attempt timed out. In that
+ * case the %NL80211_ATTR_FRAME attribute is replaced with a
+ * %NL80211_ATTR_TIMED_OUT flag (and %NL80211_ATTR_MAC to indicate which
+ * pending authentication timed out).
+ * @NL80211_CMD_ASSOCIATE: association request and notification; like
+ * NL80211_CMD_AUTHENTICATE but for Association and Reassociation
+ * (similar to MLME-ASSOCIATE.request, MLME-REASSOCIATE.request,
+ * MLME-ASSOCIATE.confirm or MLME-REASSOCIATE.confirm primitives).
+ * @NL80211_CMD_DEAUTHENTICATE: deauthentication request and notification; like
+ * NL80211_CMD_AUTHENTICATE but for Deauthentication frames (similar to
+ * MLME-DEAUTHENTICATION.request and MLME-DEAUTHENTICATE.indication
+ * primitives).
+ * @NL80211_CMD_DISASSOCIATE: disassociation request and notification; like
+ * NL80211_CMD_AUTHENTICATE but for Disassociation frames (similar to
+ * MLME-DISASSOCIATE.request and MLME-DISASSOCIATE.indication primitives).
+ *
+ * @NL80211_CMD_MICHAEL_MIC_FAILURE: notification of a locally detected Michael
+ * MIC (part of TKIP) failure; sent on the "mlme" multicast group; the
+ * event includes %NL80211_ATTR_MAC to describe the source MAC address of
+ * the frame with invalid MIC, %NL80211_ATTR_KEY_TYPE to show the key
+ * type, %NL80211_ATTR_KEY_IDX to indicate the key identifier, and
+ * %NL80211_ATTR_KEY_SEQ to indicate the TSC value of the frame; this
+ * event matches with MLME-MICHAELMICFAILURE.indication() primitive
+ *
+ * @NL80211_CMD_JOIN_IBSS: Join a new IBSS -- given at least an SSID and a
+ * FREQ attribute (for the initial frequency if no peer can be found)
+ * and optionally a MAC (as BSSID) and FREQ_FIXED attribute if those
+ * should be fixed rather than automatically determined. Can only be
+ * executed on a network interface that is UP, and fixed BSSID/FREQ
+ * may be rejected. Another optional parameter is the beacon interval,
+ * given in the %NL80211_ATTR_BEACON_INTERVAL attribute, which if not
+ * given defaults to 100 TU (102.4ms).
+ * @NL80211_CMD_LEAVE_IBSS: Leave the IBSS -- no special arguments, the IBSS is
+ * determined by the network interface.
+ *
+ * @NL80211_CMD_TESTMODE: testmode command, takes a wiphy (or ifindex) attribute
+ * to identify the device, and the TESTDATA blob attribute to pass through
+ * to the driver.
+ *
+ * @NL80211_CMD_CONNECT: connection request and notification; this command
+ * requests to connect to a specified network but without separating
+ * auth and assoc steps. For this, you need to specify the SSID in a
+ * %NL80211_ATTR_SSID attribute, and can optionally specify the association
+ * IEs in %NL80211_ATTR_IE, %NL80211_ATTR_AUTH_TYPE, %NL80211_ATTR_MAC,
+ * %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FREQ, %NL80211_ATTR_CONTROL_PORT,
+ * %NL80211_ATTR_CONTROL_PORT_ETHERTYPE and
+ * %NL80211_ATTR_CONTROL_PORT_NO_ENCRYPT.
+ * It is also sent as an event, with the BSSID and response IEs when the
+ * connection is established or failed to be established. This can be
+ * determined by the STATUS_CODE attribute.
+ * @NL80211_CMD_ROAM: request that the card roam (currently not implemented),
+ * sent as an event when the card/driver roamed by itself.
+ * @NL80211_CMD_DISCONNECT: drop a given connection; also used to notify
+ * userspace that a connection was dropped by the AP or due to other
+ * reasons, for this the %NL80211_ATTR_DISCONNECTED_BY_AP and
+ * %NL80211_ATTR_REASON_CODE attributes are used.
+ *
+ * @NL80211_CMD_SET_WIPHY_NETNS: Set a wiphy's netns. Note that all devices
+ * associated with this wiphy must be down and will follow.
+ *
+ * @NL80211_CMD_REMAIN_ON_CHANNEL: Request to remain awake on the specified
+ * channel for the specified amount of time. This can be used to do
+ * off-channel operations like transmit a Public Action frame and wait for
+ * a response while being associated to an AP on another channel.
+ * %NL80211_ATTR_IFINDEX is used to specify which interface (and thus
+ * radio) is used. %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FREQ is used to specify the
+ * frequency for the operation and %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_CHANNEL_TYPE may be
+ * optionally used to specify additional channel parameters.
+ * %NL80211_ATTR_DURATION is used to specify the duration in milliseconds
+ * to remain on the channel. This command is also used as an event to
+ * notify when the requested duration starts (it may take a while for the
+ * driver to schedule this time due to other concurrent needs for the
+ * radio).
+ * When called, this operation returns a cookie (%NL80211_ATTR_COOKIE)
+ * that will be included with any events pertaining to this request;
+ * the cookie is also used to cancel the request.
+ * @NL80211_CMD_CANCEL_REMAIN_ON_CHANNEL: This command can be used to cancel a
+ * pending remain-on-channel duration if the desired operation has been
+ * completed prior to expiration of the originally requested duration.
+ * %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY or %NL80211_ATTR_IFINDEX is used to specify the
+ * radio. The %NL80211_ATTR_COOKIE attribute must be given as well to
+ * uniquely identify the request.
+ * This command is also used as an event to notify when a requested
+ * remain-on-channel duration has expired.
+ *
+ * @NL80211_CMD_SET_TX_BITRATE_MASK: Set the mask of rates to be used in TX
+ * rate selection. %NL80211_ATTR_IFINDEX is used to specify the interface
+ * and @NL80211_ATTR_TX_RATES the set of allowed rates.
+ *
+ * @NL80211_CMD_REGISTER_FRAME: Register for receiving certain mgmt frames
+ * (via @NL80211_CMD_FRAME) for processing in userspace. This command
+ * requires an interface index, a frame type attribute (optional for
+ * backward compatibility reasons, if not given assumes action frames)
+ * and a match attribute containing the first few bytes of the frame
+ * that should match, e.g. a single byte for only a category match or
+ * four bytes for vendor frames including the OUI. The registration
+ * cannot be dropped, but is removed automatically when the netlink
+ * socket is closed. Multiple registrations can be made.
+ * @NL80211_CMD_REGISTER_ACTION: Alias for @NL80211_CMD_REGISTER_FRAME for
+ * backward compatibility
+ * @NL80211_CMD_FRAME: Management frame TX request and RX notification. This
+ * command is used both as a request to transmit a management frame and
+ * as an event indicating reception of a frame that was not processed in
+ * kernel code, but is for us (i.e., which may need to be processed in a
+ * user space application). %NL80211_ATTR_FRAME is used to specify the
+ * frame contents (including header). %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FREQ (and
+ * optionally %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_CHANNEL_TYPE) is used to indicate on
+ * which channel the frame is to be transmitted or was received. If this
+ * channel is not the current channel (remain-on-channel or the
+ * operational channel) the device will switch to the given channel and
+ * transmit the frame, optionally waiting for a response for the time
+ * specified using %NL80211_ATTR_DURATION. When called, this operation
+ * returns a cookie (%NL80211_ATTR_COOKIE) that will be included with the
+ * TX status event pertaining to the TX request.
+ * @NL80211_CMD_FRAME_WAIT_CANCEL: When an off-channel TX was requested, this
+ * command may be used with the corresponding cookie to cancel the wait
+ * time if it is known that it is no longer necessary.
+ * @NL80211_CMD_ACTION: Alias for @NL80211_CMD_FRAME for backward compatibility.
+ * @NL80211_CMD_FRAME_TX_STATUS: Report TX status of a management frame
+ * transmitted with %NL80211_CMD_FRAME. %NL80211_ATTR_COOKIE identifies
+ * the TX command and %NL80211_ATTR_FRAME includes the contents of the
+ * frame. %NL80211_ATTR_ACK flag is included if the recipient acknowledged
+ * the frame.
+ * @NL80211_CMD_ACTION_TX_STATUS: Alias for @NL80211_CMD_FRAME_TX_STATUS for
+ * backward compatibility.
+ * @NL80211_CMD_SET_CQM: Connection quality monitor configuration. This command
+ * is used to configure connection quality monitoring notification trigger
+ * levels.
+ * @NL80211_CMD_NOTIFY_CQM: Connection quality monitor notification. This
+ * command is used as an event to indicate the that a trigger level was
+ * reached.
+ * @NL80211_CMD_SET_CHANNEL: Set the channel (using %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FREQ
+ * and %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_CHANNEL_TYPE) the given interface (identifed
+ * by %NL80211_ATTR_IFINDEX) shall operate on.
+ * In case multiple channels are supported by the device, the mechanism
+ * with which it switches channels is implementation-defined.
+ * When a monitor interface is given, it can only switch channel while
+ * no other interfaces are operating to avoid disturbing the operation
+ * of any other interfaces, and other interfaces will again take
+ * precedence when they are used.
+ *
+ * @NL80211_CMD_SET_WDS_PEER: Set the MAC address of the peer on a WDS interface.
+ *
+ * @NL80211_CMD_JOIN_MESH: Join a mesh. The mesh ID must be given, and initial
+ * mesh config parameters may be given.
+ * @NL80211_CMD_LEAVE_MESH: Leave the mesh network -- no special arguments, the
+ * network is determined by the network interface.

+ *
+ * @NL80211_ATTR_TX_RATES: Nested set of attributes
+ * (enum nl80211_tx_rate_attributes) describing TX rates per band. The
+ * enum nl80211_band value is used as the index (nla_type() of the nested
+ * data. If a band is not included, it will be configured to allow all
+ * rates based on negotiated supported rates information. This attribute
+ * is used with %NL80211_CMD_SET_TX_BITRATE_MASK.
+ *
+ * @NL80211_ATTR_FRAME_MATCH: A binary attribute which typically must contain
+ * at least one byte, currently used with @NL80211_CMD_REGISTER_FRAME.

+ * is requesting a local authentication/association state change without
+ * invoking actual management frame exchange. This can be used with
+ * NL80211_CMD_AUTHENTICATE, NL80211_CMD_DEAUTHENTICATE,
+ * NL80211_CMD_DISASSOCIATE.
+ *
+ * @NL80211_ATTR_AP_ISOLATE: (AP mode) Do not forward traffic between stations
+ * connected to this BSS.
+ *
+ * @NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_TX_POWER_SETTING: Transmit power setting type. See
+ * &enum nl80211_tx_power_setting for possible values.
+ * @NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_TX_POWER_LEVEL: Transmit power level in signed mBm units.

+ * for non-automatic settings.
+ *
+ * @NL80211_ATTR_SUPPORT_IBSS_RSN: The device supports IBSS RSN, which mostly
+ * means support for per-station GTKs.
+ *
+ * @NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_TX: Bitmap of allowed antennas for transmitting.
+ * This can be used to mask out antennas which are not attached or should
+ * not be used for transmitting. If an antenna is not selected in this
+ * bitmap the hardware is not allowed to transmit on this antenna.
+ *
+ * Each bit represents one antenna, starting with antenna 1 at the first
+ * bit. Depending on which antennas are selected in the bitmap, 802.11n
+ * drivers can derive which chainmasks to use (if all antennas belonging to
+ * a particular chain are disabled this chain should be disabled) and if
+ * a chain has diversity antennas wether diversity should be used or not.
+ * HT capabilities (STBC, TX Beamforming, Antenna selection) can be
+ * derived from the available chains after applying the antenna mask.
+ * Non-802.11n drivers can derive wether to use diversity or not.
+ * Drivers may reject configurations or RX/TX mask combinations they cannot
+ * support by returning -EINVAL.
+ *
+ * @NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_RX: Bitmap of allowed antennas for receiving.
+ * This can be used to mask out antennas which are not attached or should
+ * not be used for receiving. If an antenna is not selected in this bitmap
+ * the hardware should not be configured to receive on this antenna.
+ * For a more detailed descripton see @NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_TX.
+ *
+ * @NL80211_ATTR_MCAST_RATE: Multicast tx rate (in 100 kbps) for IBSS
+ *
+ * @NL80211_ATTR_OFFCHANNEL_TX_OK: For management frame TX, the frame may be
+ * transmitted on another channel when the channel given doesn't match
+ * the current channel. If the current channel doesn't match and this
+ * flag isn't set, the frame will be rejected. This is also used as an
+ * nl80211 capability flag.
+ *
+ * @NL80211_ATTR_BSS_HTOPMODE: HT operation mode (u16)
+ *
+ * @NL80211_ATTR_KEY_DEFAULT_TYPES: A nested attribute containing flags
+ * attributes, specifying what a key should be set as default as.

Using a %s to pring the alpha2 may give us some extra
data which will spew out when printing. Fix it by only
printing the two characters we know we will get.

The alpha2 is pretty useless -- I don't think you should advocate using
it. I think it can even be "99" or something at this point.

The alpha2 here is for the request, not what is set though.

maybe you shouldn't be using the full two bytes we have since you just
need three bits?

Can you move the define into the function, and also #undef it please?
Also -- it seems that this is never reported back to be printed by iw
reg get? I think that might be needed? If you do, it should only report
the ones that the kernel knows about (i.e. mask them with the _ALL
thing)
Does it make sense to actually have this a bitmask rather than an enum?
Do we think there's some place that needs _multiple_ rules?

Also -- "regions", not "region" since it's still a bitmask of values. If
you think it should be a single region, then you should have an enum
instead.

Either way is fine, but my thinking here was to just use this as a
general country flag, not just DFS region flag. We can just use one
byte for DFS region and save ourself the last byte for something else
in the future.

Ah see the field is actually a country flag, but here we just extract
the DFS region.

You're right, for now we can enforce this to be just one region and if
we later want to change it for whatever reason we can allow for one
country to fall into multiple regions, if that makes sense. I hope to
get a better idea from Michael today if this might make sense today.
I'll reply to this thread once I do.

Actually it is. See the changes on nl80211_get_reg(), and I tested

Good question, I have my call with Michael scheduled for 11am PST
