0120d052d7 nl80211: Add NL80211_ATTR_MLO_LINK_ID for NL80211_CMD_REMAIN_ON_CHANNEL
cfg80211 requires the link ID to be specified for requests to start a
remain-on-channel operation during an ML association. This feels wrong
since the ROC operation is in most cases unrelated to the
association. However, that requirement has been in place since kernel
commit 7b0a0e3c3a88 ("wifi: cfg80211: do some rework towards MLO link
APIs") from April 2022, and as such, it looks necessary to have
wpa_supplicant work around this by specifying the currently used link ID
that would seem to match the ROC channel most closely.

790beb84ac Adjust the SNR when comparing BSSes based on Tx power config
The max transmit power of Standard Power (SP) Access Points (AP) on
6 GHz band and APs on 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands is limited by effective
isotropic radiated power (EIRP), while the max transmit power of Low
Power Indoor (LPI) APs on 6 GHz Band is limited by power spectral
density (PSD). Therefore the max transmit power of LPI APs grows as the
channel width increases, similar to the noise power which has constant
PSD.

Adjust the SNR of BSSes based on the transmit power config and max
channel width. EIRP limited APs usually have constant max transmit power
on different channel widths, their SNR decreases on larger channel width
because the noise power is higher, while PSD limited APs have constant
SNR over all channel widths.

42add3c27b Scan 6 GHz channels after change to 6 GHz-allowed regdom
Drivers will often report regdom changes in the middle of a scan if they
detect during that scan that the regulatory domain has changed. If this
happens and we enter a regdom that supports 6 GHz channels when the
previous one didn't (this often happens in 6 GHz-capable regdoms for
devices after suspend/resume), immediately trigger a 6 GHz-only scan if
we were not able to connect to an AP on a legacy band.

This should significantly improve connection time to 6 GHz AP after
regdom has been reset.

50a9b7d3d3 P2P: Include only 6 GHz PSCs in full scan
As P2P GOs are not expected to be collocated, i.e., they are not
expected to be announced in the RNR element of other APs, they can
operate only on preferred scanning channels (PSCs).

When performing a full scan for P2P discovery, include only the 6 GHz
PSCs (if supported) to avoid scanning channels on which P2P GOs are not
expected to reside.

While at it also fix couple of places that missed including 60 GHz
channels in P2P full scan.

Add support to consider HE rates while estimating throughputs for the
scan results from HE enabled APs. HE 0.8 usec GI rates are used in all
tables. The minimum SNR values for HE rates (1024-QAM) are derived by
adding the existing minimum SNR values of 256-QAM rates from VHT tables
and the difference between the values of minimum sensitivity levels of
256-QAM rates and 1024-QAM rates defined in Table 27-51 (Receiver
minimum input level sensitivity) in IEEE P802.11ax/D8.0.

1d2118b509 Check local supported features for estimating BSS throughputs accurately
Add checks for features supported by the specific hardware mode of the
local device that has the channel for which the throughput is being
estimated instead of assuming the local device supports all optional
features. This is more accurate for cases where the local capabilities
might differ based on the band. In addition, this is in preparation for

On receiving a WNM BSS Transition Management Request frame with a
candidate list, fetch the latest scan results from the kernel to see if
there are any recent scan results for the candidates and initiate a
connection if found. This helps to avoid triggering a new scan in cases
where a scan initiated by something else (e.g., an internal beacon
measurement report functionality in a driver) has processed Beacon or
Probe Response frames without wpa_supplicant having received a
notification of such an update yet.

f86d282f43 Handle legacy scan interruption of sched_scan/PNO
While starting from PNO start context, the scheduled scan was not
setting the flag wpa_s->scanning. This was resulting in the subsequent
SCAN command to proceed further and send command to nl80211/cfg80211.
The expected behavior of cancelling sched_scan was not happening here.

While sched_scan is in progress and a legacy scan comes on the
cli/socket, the sched_scan is cancelled and normal scan is allowed to
continue. However, sometimes sched_scan cancelled event comes a bit
delayed and we will send out the scan command before the wpa_s->scanning
is cleared. Instead, reschedule the incoming scan req if the
wpa_s->scanning shows that it is still in progress.

sta_scan_pending was supposed to be accurate enough for determining

that there were cases where sta_scan_pending was not cleared properly.

other cases may still exist. To avoid issues with P2P operationg getting
stuck, verify more carefully that there is a real pending station mode
