Johannes Berg says: ==================== We have a fair number of patches, but many of them are from the first bullet here: * EAPoL-over-nl80211 from Denis - this will let us fix some long-standing issues with bridging, races with encryption and more * DFS offload support from the qtnfmac folks * regulatory database changes for the new ETSI adaptivity requirements * various other fixes and small enhancements ====================

  *	IEs in %NL80211_ATTR_IE, %NL80211_ATTR_AUTH_TYPE, %NL80211_ATTR_USE_MFP,
  *	%NL80211_ATTR_MAC, %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FREQ, %NL80211_ATTR_CONTROL_PORT,
  *	%NL80211_ATTR_CONTROL_PORT_ETHERTYPE,
- *	%NL80211_ATTR_CONTROL_PORT_NO_ENCRYPT, %NL80211_ATTR_MAC_HINT, and
+ *	%NL80211_ATTR_CONTROL_PORT_NO_ENCRYPT,
+ *	%NL80211_ATTR_CONTROL_PORT_OVER_NL80211, %NL80211_ATTR_MAC_HINT, and
  *	%NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FREQ_HINT.
  *	If included, %NL80211_ATTR_MAC and %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FREQ are
  *	restrictions on BSS selection, i.e., they effectively prevent roaming
  *	&NL80211_CMD_CONNECT or &NL80211_CMD_ROAM. If the 4 way handshake failed
  *	&NL80211_CMD_DISCONNECT should be indicated instead.
  *
+ * @NL80211_CMD_CONTROL_PORT_FRAME: Control Port (e.g. PAE) frame TX request
+ *	and RX notification.  This command is used both as a request to transmit
+ *	a control port frame and as a notification that a control port frame
+ *	has been received. %NL80211_ATTR_FRAME is used to specify the
+ *	frame contents.  The frame is the raw EAPoL data, without ethernet or
+ *	802.11 headers.
+ *	When used as an event indication %NL80211_ATTR_CONTROL_PORT_ETHERTYPE,
+ *	%NL80211_ATTR_CONTROL_PORT_NO_ENCRYPT and %NL80211_ATTR_MAC are added
+ *	indicating the protocol type of the received frame; whether the frame
+ *	was received unencrypted and the MAC address of the peer respectively.
+ *
  * @NL80211_CMD_RELOAD_REGDB: Request that the regdb firmware file is reloaded.
  *
  * @NL80211_CMD_EXTERNAL_AUTH: This interface is exclusively defined for host
 	NL80211_CMD_STA_OPMODE_CHANGED,
+	NL80211_CMD_CONTROL_PORT_FRAME,
 	/* add new commands above here */
 	/* used to define NL80211_CMD_MAX below */
  * @NL80211_ATTR_CONTROL_PORT_NO_ENCRYPT: When included along with
  *	%NL80211_ATTR_CONTROL_PORT_ETHERTYPE, indicates that the custom
  *	ethertype frames used for key negotiation must not be encrypted.
+ * @NL80211_ATTR_CONTROL_PORT_OVER_NL80211: A flag indicating whether control
+ *	port frames (e.g. of type given in %NL80211_ATTR_CONTROL_PORT_ETHERTYPE)
+ *	will be sent directly to the network interface or sent via the NL80211
+ *	socket.  If this attribute is missing, then legacy behavior of sending
+ *	control port frames directly to the network interface is used.  If the
+ *	flag is included, then control port frames are sent over NL80211 instead
+ *	using %CMD_CONTROL_PORT_FRAME.  If control port routing over NL80211 is
+ *	to be used then userspace must also use the %NL80211_ATTR_SOCKET_OWNER
+ *	flag.
  *
  * @NL80211_ATTR_TESTDATA: Testmode data blob, passed through to the driver.
  *	We recommend using nested, driver-specific attributes within this.
  *	multicast group.
  *	If set during %NL80211_CMD_ASSOCIATE or %NL80211_CMD_CONNECT the
  *	station will deauthenticate when the socket is closed.
+ *	If set during %NL80211_CMD_JOIN_IBSS the IBSS will be automatically
+ *	torn down when the socket is closed.
+ *	If set during %NL80211_CMD_JOIN_MESH the mesh setup will be
+ *	automatically torn down when the socket is closed.
+ *	If set during %NL80211_CMD_START_AP the AP will be automatically
+ *	disabled when the socket is closed.
  *
  * @NL80211_ATTR_TDLS_INITIATOR: flag attribute indicating the current end is
  *	the TDLS link initiator.

  * @NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_HIGH_ACCURACY_SCAN: Driver supports high accuracy scan.
+ * @NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_DFS_OFFLOAD: HW/driver will offload DFS actions.

+ *	informing user-space about CAC progress, radar detection event,
+ *	channel change triggered by radar detection event.
+ *	No need to start CAC from user-space, no need to react to

  * @NUM_NL80211_EXT_FEATURES: number of extended features.
  * @MAX_NL80211_EXT_FEATURES: highest extended feature index.
