Introduce a new option background_radar to toggle hostapd's background
radar feature. Enabling this allows DFS CAC to run on dedicated radio RF
chains while the radio(s) are otherwise running normal AP activities on
other channels.
As OpenWrt configures hostapd to use a channel list even when a single
channel is configured, using this feature requires a list of channels in
/etc/config/wireless. Alternatively, channel can be set to auto.

On systems using brmcfmac (e.g. Raspberry Pi Zero W) without this fix,
the final setup-call:
iw dev wlan0 ibss join ...
fails with returncode 161 and message:
"command failed: Not supported (-95)"
So this patch calls an explicit:
iw dev wlan0 set type ibss
just prior to the 'ibss join' command.
I have tested several ath9k and mt76xx devices
with different revisions: this patch does not harm.
please also apply to stable branch.

drv_mac80211_teardown fails silently if the device to be torn down is
not defined. This commit prints an error message.

When wifi is turned off, drv_mac80211_teardown sometimes fails (silently)
because the device to be torn down is not defined.
This situation arises if drv_mac80211_setup was called twice when
wifi was turned on.
This commit ensures that the device to be torn down is always defined
in drv_mac80211_teardown.
Steps to reproduce:
1) Use /sbin/wifi to turn on wifi.
uci set wireless.@wifi-iface[0].disabled=0
uci set wireless.@wifi-device[0].disabled=0
uci commit
wifi
2) Use /sbin/wifi to turn off wifi.
uci set wireless.@wifi-device[0].disabled=1
uci commit
wifi
3) Observe that wifi is still up.

If drv_mac80211_setup is called twice with the same wifi configuration,
then the second call returns early with error HOSTAPD_START_FAILED.
(wifi works nevertheless, despite the fact that setup is incomplete. But
"ubus call network.wireless status" erroneously reports that radio0 is down.)
The relevant part of drv_mac80211_setup is,
if [ "$no_reload" != "0" ]; then
add_ap=1
ubus wait_for hostapd
local hostapd_res="$(ubus call hostapd config_add "{\"iface\":\"$primary_ap\", \"config\":\"${hostapd_conf_file}\"}")"
ret="$?"
[ "$ret" != 0 -o -z "$hostapd_res" ] && {
wireless_setup_failed HOSTAPD_START_FAILED
return
}
wireless_add_process "$(jsonfilter -s "$hostapd_res" -l 1 -e @.pid)" "/usr/sbin/hostapd" 1 1
fi
This commit sets no_reload = 0 during the second call of drv_mac80211_setup.
It is perhaps worth providing a way to reproduce the situation
where drv_mac80211_setup is called twice.
When /sbin/wifi is used to turn on wifi,
uci set wireless.@wifi-iface[0].disabled=0
uci set wireless.@wifi-device[0].disabled=0
uci commit
wifi
/sbin/wifi makes the following ubus calls,
ubus call network reload
ubus call network.wireless down
ubus call network.wireless up
The first and third ubus calls both call drv_mac80211_setup,
while the second ubus call triggers wireless_device_setup_cancel.
So the call sequence becomes,
drv_mac80211_setup
wireless_device_setup_cancel
drv_mac80211_setup
In contrast, when LuCI is used to turn on wifi only a single call
is made to drv_mac80211_setup.

2. The base address has the local bit set and the operation unsets it.
Fix both.

hostapd_set_bss_options expects the PHY as second and the VIF as third
argument. However, only the VIF was passed as second argument without a
third argument at all.
This was never a problem, as both PHY and VIF were never accessed.
However, with FTM support the PHY is needed to determine the HW support
when configuring the BSS.

When retrieving the PID for hostapd and wpa_supplicant via ubus the
wrong service name is currently used. This leads to the following error
in the log:

Fixing the service name retrieves the correct PID and therefore the

Currently a device which has a DFS channel selected using the UCI
channel setting might switch to a non-DFS channel in case no chanlist is
provided (UCI setting "channels") when the radio detects a DFS event.
Automatically add a chanlist consisting of the configured channel when
the device does not operate in auto-channel mode and no chanlist set to
circumvent this issue.

This can be useful when a DFS channel is configured, as the ACS channel

Some FullMAC cfg80211 wireless devices do not support virtual
interfaces, hence there is script logic to keep the existing network
device. Improve this to support renaming the interface if needed and
make sure the existing interface actually belongs to the right phy.
Change calls to 'iw' to avoid outputing warnings and errors to not
confuse users of such devices.
Also bump PKG_RELEASE which has been forgotten in the previous two
mac80211 changes.

For virtual access points (when multiple SSIDs are used for one
physical AP), there exist one physical network interface and
multiple virtual interfaces, which are fully under control of
hostapd. When networking is setup, the script
`/lib/netifd/wireless/mac80211.sh` is called, which tries to bring
the interface up by a call to `ip link set dev <iface> up`. This
call might fail for virtual APs, because the virtual interface
might not have been created by hostapd yet. There are some artifical
delays in the script most probably to handle this, but when DFS
channel availability check on 5GHz band is issued, hostapd can
delay creating virtual interfaces by a minute.
In order to fix this (or work around it), do not try to bring the
interface up (this is responsibility of hostapd anyway) and
do not try to set txpower on the virtual interface.
Fixes FS#2698.

hostapd allows putting WDS (4addr mode) clients into a separate bridge
other than the bridge regular (3addr mode) clients end up in. This is
useful for example giving WDS clients access to several VLANs
(trunking) while regular clients will end up inside a specific VLAN.
Add 'wds_bridge' config parameter for wifi-iface which contains the
name of the bridge. hostapd-mini already supports this feature, so all
needed is to add the UCI wrapping in mac80211.sh.
