The 'vif' pointer in the Tx information might be NULL, e.g., in
case of injected frames etc. and is not checked in all paths. Fix it.
While at it, also directly use the local 'vif' pointer.

<title>wifi: mac80211_hwsim: Limit destroy_on_close radio removal to netgroup</title>

<content type='text'>
hwsim radios marked destroy_on_close are removed when the Netlink socket
that created them is closed. As the portid is not unique across network
namespaces, closing a socket in one namespace may remove radios in another
if it has the destroy_on_close flag set.

Instead of matching the network namespace, match the netgroup of the radio
to limit radio removal to those that have been created by the closing
Netlink socket. The netgroup of a radio identifies the network namespace
it was created in, and matching on it removes a destroy_on_close radio
even if it has been moved to another namespace.

<content type='text'>
Add support for simulating a NAN Device interface:

- Update interface limits to include support for NAN Device.
- Increase the number of supported HW addresses to allow unique
  addresses for combination such as: station interface + P2P
  Device interface + NAN Device interface.
- Declare support for NAN capabilities, specifically support for
  NAN synchronization offload and NAN DE user space support.
- Add the relevant callbacks to support start/stop NAN Device
  operation.
- Use a timer to simulate starting a Discovery Window (currently
  the timer doesn't do much).
- Update the Tx path to simulate that the channel used for NAN
  Device is either channel 6 or channel 149.
- Send DW notification when DW starts.
- Send cluster join notification when new cluster starts, or when an
  existing cluster is joined. "Joining" is implemented by reusing the
  cluster id of any other existing NAN management interface.

<title>wifi: cfg80211/mac80211: Add support to get radio index</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.zx2c4.com/wireguard-linux/commit/?id=b74947b4f6ff7c122a1bb6eb38bb7ecfbb1d3820'/>
<id>urn:sha1:b74947b4f6ff7c122a1bb6eb38bb7ecfbb1d3820</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, per-radio attributes are set on per-phy basis, i.e., all the
radios present in a wiphy will take attributes values sent from user. But
each radio in a wiphy can get different values from userspace based on
its requirement.

To extend support to set per-radio attributes, add support to get radio
index from userspace. Add an NL attribute - NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_RADIO_INDEX,
to get user specified radio index for which attributes should be changed.
Pass this to individual drivers, so that the drivers can use this radio
index to change per-radio attributes when necessary. Currently, per-radio
attributes identified are:
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_TX_POWER_LEVEL
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_TX
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_ANTENNA_RX
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_RETRY_SHORT
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_RETRY_LONG
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FRAG_THRESHOLD
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_RTS_THRESHOLD
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_COVERAGE_CLASS
NL80211_ATTR_TXQ_LIMIT
NL80211_ATTR_TXQ_MEMORY_LIMIT
NL80211_ATTR_TXQ_QUANTUM

By default, the radio index is set to -1. This means the attribute should
be treated as a global configuration. If the user has not specified any
index, then the radio index passed to individual drivers would be -1. This
would indicate that the attribute applies to all radios in that wiphy.

<title>wifi: mac80211: restructure tx profile retrieval for MLO MBSSID</title>

<id>urn:sha1:f600832794c91d7021d7337104734246b02a2b86</id>
<content type='text'>
For MBSSID, each vif (struct ieee80211_vif) stores another vif
pointer for the transmitting profile of MBSSID set. This won't
suffice for MLO as there may be multiple links, each of which can
be part of different MBSSID sets. Hence the information needs to
be stored per-link. Additionally, the transmitted profile itself
may be part of an MLD hence storing vif will not suffice either.
Fix MLO by storing an instance of struct ieee80211_bss_conf
for each link.

Modify following operations to reflect the above structure updates:
- channel switch completion
- BSS color change completion
- Removing nontransmitted links in ieee80211_stop_mbssid()
- drivers retrieving the transmitted link for beacon templates.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Core &amp; protocols:

   - Continue Netlink conversions to per-namespace RTNL lock
     (IPv4 routing, routing rules, routing next hops, ARP ioctls)

   - Continue extending the use of netdev instance locks. As a driver
     opt-in protect queue operations and (in due course) ethtool
     operations with the instance lock and not RTNL lock.

   - Support collecting TCP timestamps (data submitted, sent, acked) in
     BPF, allowing for transparent (to the application) and lower
     overhead tracking of TCP RPC performance.

   - Tweak existing networking Rx zero-copy infra to support zero-copy
     Rx via io_uring.

   - Optimize MPTCP performance in single subflow mode by 29%.

   - Enable GRO on packets which went thru XDP CPU redirect (were queued
     for processing on a different CPU). Improving TCP stream
     performance up to 2x.

   - Improve performance of contended connect() by 200% by searching for
     an available 4-tuple under RCU rather than a spin lock. Bring an
     additional 229% improvement by tweaking hash distribution.

   - Avoid unconditionally touching sk_tsflags on RX, improving
     performance under UDP flood by as much as 10%.

   - Avoid skb_clone() dance in ping_rcv() to improve performance under
     ping flood.

   - Avoid FIB lookup in netfilter if socket is available, 20% perf win.

   - Rework network device creation (in-kernel) API to more clearly
     identify network namespaces and their roles. There are up to 4
     namespace roles but we used to have just 2 netns pointer arguments,
     interpreted differently based on context.

   - Use sysfs_break_active_protection() instead of trylock to avoid
     deadlocks between unregistering objects and sysfs access.

   - Add a new sysctl and sockopt for capping max retransmit timeout in
     TCP.

   - Support masking port and DSCP in routing rule matches.

   - Support dumping IPv4 multicast addresses with RTM_GETMULTICAST.

   - Support specifying at what time packet should be sent on AF_XDP
     sockets.

   - Expose TCP ULP diagnostic info (for TLS and MPTCP) to non-admin
     users.

   - Add Netlink YAML spec for WiFi (nl80211) and conntrack.

   - Introduce EXPORT_IPV6_MOD() and EXPORT_IPV6_MOD_GPL() for symbols
     which only need to be exported when IPv6 support is built as a
     module.

   - Age FDB entries based on Rx not Tx traffic in VxLAN, similar to
     normal bridging.

   - Allow users to specify source port range for GENEVE tunnels.

   - netconsole: allow attaching kernel release, CPU ID and task name to
     messages as metadata

  Driver API:

   - Continue rework / fixing of Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) across
     the SW layers. Delegate the responsibilities to phylink where
     possible. Improve its handling in phylib.

   - Support symmetric OR-XOR RSS hashing algorithm.

   - Support tracking and preserving IRQ affinity by NAPI itself.
