Updating beacon and related templates with NL80211_CMD_SET_BEACON
requires the wiphy mutex, which can get contended, delaying the
updates.
Add a NL80211_CMD_UPDATE_BEACON operation that can only do beacon
template updates, not other configuration changes, but is called
without the wiphy mutex. If something requires the mutex then the
driver can return -EAGAIN, to go through the normal change_beacon
with wiphy mutex held.
Also with this support updating multiple beacons for an MLD at
the same time, just to further reduce round-trips if desired.

Add NL80211_NAN_CONF_INSTANT_COMM flag to let user space request that
the NAN synchronization logic starts Instant Communication (IC) as
defined in Chapter 13 of the Wi-Fi Aware Specification v4.0.
Add NL80211_NAN_CAPA_INSTANT_COMM for drivers to advertise it. The
capability requires configurable synchronization support, and IC
requests are rejected if it isn't advertised.
When IC is enabled, user space must also configure the discovery
beacon interval. The IC schedule is expected to be configured
by user space.

Protected TWT support is indicated in RSNX, but RSNX may
be used from security profile now, and not be present in
the association response frame, so the logic in mac80211
to determine it doesn't/won't really work.
Add a flag for wpa_supplicant to indicate if protected
TWT is supported in the association, it can easily check
this based on the RSNX data that was used.

A NAN peer that has dual radio can schedule a slot to 2 different
channels.
Until now, for single radio devices, we disallowed such a peer schedule.
This was done so because the assumption was that the user space needs to
pick one of the channels for us, according to its logic.
But for devices that have their ULW logic offloaded, it can be useful if we
program it with the full information and let it decide what to do.
For example:
- peer has slot S scheduled to C1 and C2
- local schedule has S scheduled to C1
- in practice, the device is on C2 at S, for example due to non-NAN
activity
In that case, this extra information can actually be useful to the
device, and bring to more efficient usage of the time.
Allow a peer schedule that has a single slot scheduled to two different
channels.

Add a new NL80211_CMD_NAN_SET_NON_EVAC_CHANNELS command that lets user
space mark a set of NAN channels as non-evacuable. The command carries
the channels as nested NL80211_ATTR_NAN_CHANNEL attributes (chandef
only) and replaces the entire set of non-evacuable channels; channels
not included in the list become evacuable again.
All provided channels must already exist in the current local schedule,
otherwise -ENOENT is returned. The command is rejected with -EBUSY
while a schedule update is pending.
This prevents the kernel from evacuating channels that carry NDC or
immutable schedules, so evacuating these channels would break existing
NDP connections.

The Control Integrity Protocol consists of a set of capabilities for the
MIC padding as well as a new CIGTK that can be installed. The CIGTK uses
a fixed GMAC-256 cipher for which no RSN extension is defined as it is
bound to the pairwise cipher being GCMP-256. The CIGTK uses the key
index 0 and 1, making it necessary to add a new key type for it.
Add a new CIP feature flag and attributes for CIP Capabilities and
enabling the feature for stations and the association.
Also extend the cfg80211 API to pass the key type rather than a single
pairwise boolean.

For MLD stations, userspace may need to explicitly transmit a frame to
a specific link address. In that case, it needs to ensure that no
address translation happens.
In the reverse case of an RX, userspace may need to know the link
address for a frame. By passing the information whether a STA is known
for the frame, userspace knows whether link translation happened and
can do the reverse lookup when needed.
This is important for flows where a STA is still registered but the
connection has been lost and it is returning again.

Drivers can offload FT or OKC roaming without necessarily advertising
full 802.1X 4-way handshake offload. Add an extended feature bit for
that capability and allow PMK configuration when it is present.
This gives userspace a way to provide PMK or PMK-R0 material needed by
fast roaming firmware implementations while keeping the existing 4-way
handshake offload capability unchanged.

As per IEEE Std 802.11-2024, subclause 26.17.2.2, a 6 GHz AP can transmit
a Beacon frame using a non-HT duplicate PPDU, so that stations scanning
only PSC channels can discover it. Currently, there is no mechanism
to request the driver to transmit non-HT duplicate Beacon frames.
In [1], changes were made to parse the Beacon from user-space to set
the non-HT duplicate flag in the kernel. However, it was suggested that
non-HT transmission be part of the Beacon TX rate settings. Hence, add
NL80211_TXRATE_6GHZ_NON_HT_DUP as a flag attribute under
NL80211_ATTR_TX_RATES to let user-space request the driver to transmit
non-HT duplicate Beacons.
Also add validation to reject the Beacon if non-HT duplicate Beacon
transmission is enabled when legacy rates are not configured.

In MLO scenarios, stations may have multiple links, each with distinct
statistics. When userspace tools like iw or hostapd request station dumps,
attempting to pack all per-link stats into a single netlink message can
easily exceed the default 4KB buffer limit, especially when more than two
links are active. This results in -EMSGSIZE errors and incomplete data
delivery.
To address this, fragment per-link station statistics across multiple
netlink messages to ensure reliable delivery of complete MLO station
information. Extend the stateful context with a two-phase dump mechanism:
phase 0 (AGGREGATED) sends combined MLO-level statistics and phase 1
(PER_LINK) sends individual per-link statistics for each active link.
The dump loop is structured to produce exactly one netlink message per
iteration, with a common header (ifindex, wdev, mac, generation) built
once and phase-specific payload added via a switch statement. This keeps
header construction in one place and makes the EMSGSIZE bail-out uniform.
Add a new request flag attribute, NL80211_ATTR_STA_DUMP_LINK_STATS
(NLA_FLAG), for NL80211_CMD_GET_STATION dump. Userspace can set this
flag to request per-link station statistics for MLO stations.
Extract this flag during the first dump invocation by passing an attrbuf
to nl80211_prepare_wdev_dump(); use __free(kfree) to avoid scattered
manual kfree() calls. Cache the boolean in the dump context to avoid
repeated parsing on subsequent invocations.
Per-link messages carry a single NL80211_ATTR_MLO_LINKS nest with the
link ID, link-specific MAC, and per-link NL80211_ATTR_STA_INFO payload.
The link-specific validity (is_valid_ether_addr) and null pointer guard
are checked in nl80211_put_link_station_payload() before any message
construction begins.
Also fix all nla_nest_start_noflag() calls in nl80211_fill_link_station()
for nested attribute types (STA_INFO, BSS_PARAM, TID_STATS, per-tid) to
use nla_nest_start() so the NLA_F_NESTED flag is set correctly.
Propagate the actual return value from nl80211_put_sta_info_common() in
the AGGREGATED phase rather than returning skb->len. Returning skb->len
signals netlink to re-invoke the dump with the same sta_idx, causing an
infinite loop when the aggregated payload is too large to fit; returning
the real error code (-EMSGSIZE or otherwise) terminates the dump cleanly.
Backward compatibility is seamlessly preserved for non-MLO stations.

Currently there is no way to install an LTF key seed that can be
used in non-trigger-based (NTB) and trigger-based (TB) FTM ranging
to protect NDP frames. Without this, drivers cannot enable PHY-layer
security for peer measurement sessions, leaving ranging measurements

to advertise and install LTF key seeds via nl80211. The key seed
must be configured beforehand to ensure the peer measurement session
is secure. The driver must advertise both NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_SECURE_LTF
and NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_SET_KEY_LTF_SEED for the key seed installation
to be permitted.
The LTF key seed is pairwise key material and must only be used with
pairwise key type. Reject attempts to use it with other key types.

Currently the remain_on_channel operation does not support
filtering incoming frames by destination MAC address. This
prevents use cases such as PASN authentication in the
responder side that need to receive frames addressed to a
specific MAC during the off-channel period.
Add an rx_addr parameter to the remain_on_channel operation
callback and propagate it through the call chain from nl80211
to driver implementations. Introduce the extended feature
NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_ROC_ADDR_FILTER as a capability gate so
that cfg80211 rejects the request if the driver does not
advertise support for address filtering. Extract the address
from the NL80211_ATTR_MAC attribute when provided in the
netlink message and update the tracing infrastructure to
include the address in remain_on_channel trace events. The
rx_addr parameter is optional and can be NULL, maintaining
backward compatibility with existing drivers.

In SME-in-driver mode, the driver handles the entire (re)association
exchange. Userspace (e.g., wpa_supplicant) currently has no explicit
indication of whether the (re)association exchange was encrypted,
making it difficult to distinguish EPP (Enhanced Privacy Protection,
IEEE 802.11bi) associations from non-EPP associations.
When (Re)Association frame encryption is used, the (Re)Association
Response frame must contain a Key Delivery element as specified in
IEEE P802.11bi/D4.0, Table 9-65. Userspace must process this element
only when the (Re)Association Response frame is actually encrypted.
Processing it unconditionally for unencrypted frames leads to incorrect
behavior. Without an explicit indication from the driver, userspace
cannot determine whether encryption was used and whether the Key
Delivery element is valid.
Add a new flag attribute NL80211_ATTR_ASSOC_ENCRYPTED and a
corresponding field "assoc_encrypted" in cfg80211_connect_resp_params
to indicate that both the (Re)Association Request and Response frames
are transmitted encrypted over the air.
For mac80211-based drivers, extend cfg80211_rx_assoc_resp_data with
the assoc_encrypted field as well, which is then propagated to
cfg80211_connect_resp_params.
Pass the flag to userspace via NL80211_CMD_CONNECT event.

The opmode change notification is entirely unused by existing
userspace except for printing out the values. As such, there's
no need to keep it perfectly accurate, and the implementation
in mac80211 doesn't report it correctly today. Add a note in
the documentation that it may not differentiate 80+80 and 160.

If all available channel resources are used for NAN channels, and one of
them is shared with another interface, and that interface needs to move
to a different channel (for example STA interface that needs to do a
channel or a link switch), then the driver can evacuate one of the NAN
channels (i.e. detach it from its channel resource and announce to the
peers that this channel is ULWed). In that case, the driver needs to
notify user space about the channel evacuation, so the user space can
adjust the local schedule accordingly.
Add a notification to let userspace know about it.

Currently we have this ability for AP and GO. But it is now needed also for
NAN_DATA mode - as per Wi-Fi Aware (TM) 4.0 specification 6.2.5:
"If a NAN Device receives a unicast NAN Data frame destined for it, but
with A1 address and A2 address that are not assigned to the NDP, it shall
discard the frame, and should send a Data Path Termination NAF to the
frame transmitter"
To allow this, change NL80211_CMD_UNEXPECTED_FRAME to support also
NAN_DATA, so drivers can report such cases and the user space can act
accordingly.

Add an NL80211 command to configure the NAN schedule of a NAN peer.
Such a schedule contains a list of NAN channels, and a mapping from each
time slots to the corresponding channel (or unscheduled).
Also contains more information about the schedule, such as sequence ID
and map ID.
Not all of the restrictions are validated in this patch. In particular,
comparison of two maps of the same peer requires storing/retrieving each
map of each peer, only for validation.
Therefore, it is the responsibilty of the driver to check that.

There are 2 types of logical links with a NAN peer:
- management (NMI), which is used for Tx/Rx of NAN management frames.
- data (NDI), which is used for Tx/Rx of data frames, or non-NAN
management frames.
The NMI station has two roles:
- representation of the NAN peer - for example, the peer's schedule
and the HT, VHT, HE capabilities - belong to the NMI station, and not to
the NDI ones.
- Tx/Rx of NAN management frames to/from the peer.
The NDI station is used for Tx/Rx data frames of a specific NDP that was
established with the NAN peer.
Note that a peer can choose to reuse its NMI address as the NDI address.
In that case, it is expected that two stations will be added even though
they will have the same address.
- An NDI station can only be added after the corresponding NMI station
was configured with capabilities.
- All the NDI stations will be removed before the NDI interface is brought
down.
- All NMI stations will be removed before NAN is stopped.
- Before NMI sta removal, all corresponding NDI stations will be removed
Add support for adding, removing, and changing NMI and NDI stations.

In NAN, unlike in other modes, there is only one set of (HT, VHT, HE)
capabilities that is used for all channels (and bands) used in the NAN
data path.
This set of capabilities will have to be a special one, for example - have
the minimum of (HT-for-5 GHz, HT-for-2.4 GHz), careful handling of the
bits that have a different meaning for each band, etc.
While we could use the exiting sband/iftype capabilities, and require
identical capabilities for all bands (makes no sense since this means
that we will have VHT capabilities in the 2.4 GHz slot),
or require that only one of the sbands will be set,
or have logic to extract the minimum and handle the conflicting bits -
it seems simpler to add a dedicated set of capabilities which is special
for NAN, and is band agnostic, to be populated by the driver.
That way we also let the driver decide how it wants to handle the
conflicting bits.
Add this special set of these capabilities to wiphy:nan_capabilities, to be
populated by the driver.
Send it to user space.

This new interface type represents a NAN data interface (NDI).
It is used for data communication with NAN peers.
Note that the existing NL80211_IFTYPE_NAN interface, which is the NAN
Management Interface (NMI), is used for management communication.
An NDI interface is started when a new NAN data path is about to
be established, and is stopped after the NAN data path is terminated.
- An NDI interface can only be started if the NMI is running, and NAN is
started.
- Before the NMI is stopped, the NDI interfaces will be stopped.

Add an nl80211 API to allow user space to configure the local NAN
schedule.
The local schedule consists of a list of channel definitions and a schedule
map, in which each element covers a time slot and indicates on what
channel the device should be in that time slot.
Channels can be added to schedule even without being scheduled, for
reservation purposes.
A schedule can be configured either immedietally or be deferred, in case
there are already connected peers.
When the deferred flag is set, the command is a request from the device
to perform an announced schedule update: send the updated NAN
Availability - as set in this command - to the peers, and do the
actual switch to the new schedule on the right time (i.e. at the end of
the slot after the slot in which the update was sent to the peers).
In addition, a notification will be sent to indicate a deferred update
completion.

When the AP has an advertised TID to Link Mapping (TTLM) it shall
include the element in the association response. As such, when this
element is present it needs to be used for the currently dormant links.
See Draft P802.11REVmf_D1.0 section 35.3.7.2.3 ("Negotiation of TTLM")
for the details. The flag is also not usable in case userspace wants to
specify a negotiated TTLM during association.
Note that for the link reconfiguration case, mac80211 did not use the
information. Draft P802.11REVmf_D1.0 states in section 35.3.6.4 ("Link
reconfiguration to the setup links) that we "shall operate with all the
TIDs mapped to the newly added links ..."
All this means that the flag is not needed. The implementation should

After NAN was started, cluster id updates from the user space should not
happen, since the device already started a cluster with the

Since NL80211_CMD_CHANGE_NAN_CONFIG requires to set the full NAN
configuration, we can't require that NL80211_NAN_CONF_CLUSTER_ID won't
be included in this command, and keeping the last confgiured value just
