In practice, some APs have interop issues with the DUT. This sub command
is used to transfer the AP info between the driver and user space. This
works both as a command and event. As a command, it configures the
stored list of APs from user space to firmware; as an event, it
indicates the AP info detected by the firmware to user space for
persistent storage. The attributes defined in enum
qca_vendor_attr_interop_issues_ap are used to deliver the parameters.

Add a QCA vendor sub command QCA_NL80211_VENDOR_SUBCMD_BEACON_REPORTING
to implement beacon reporting feature. Different operations required to
implement this feature can be specified in
QCA_WLAN_VENDOR_ATTR_BEACON_REPORTING_OP_TYPE.
Userspace requests the driver/firmware to periodically report received
Beacon frames whose BSSID matches the current connected BSS's MAC
address. If userspace requests the driver/firmware to send beacon
reports actively, the driver encapsulates the details of the beacon in
an event and sends it to userspace asynchronously. Otherwise, the driver
will only update the beacon in cfg80211 scan cache but will not send any
event to userspace.
If this command is not issued, the current behavior of the
driver/firmware is to update the cfg80211 scan cache only when there is
a scan issued by the host in progress or whenever there is a change in
IEs of the Beacon frames from the current connected BSS.
The userspace requests the driver/firmware to stop reporting beacons
when reporting is not required anymore. If the driver/firmware is not
able to receive Beacon frames because of other Wi-Fi operations such as
off-channel activities, etc., the driver/firmware sends a pause event to
userspace and stops reporting Beacon frames. The driver/firmware
indicates whether the beacon reporting automatically resumes later by
using the QCA_WLAN_VENDOR_ATTR_BEACON_REPORTING_AUTO_RESUMES flag. If
userspace doesn't want the beacon reporting to be resumed automatically,
userspace can send QCA_WLAN_VENDOR_BEACON_REPORTING_OP_STOP command to
the driver to stop beacon reporting.

The current/default behavior of set blacklist BSSID QCA vendor command
is a mandate to the driver - do not consider this BSSID for connect/roam
till reset.
There are use cases where this need not be a mandate and thus could
provide the flexibility for the driver to consider this BSSID if there
are no better ones. Such use cases can use this new flag attribute to
only hint the blacklist of a BSSID to the driver.

The vendor command QCA_NL80211_VENDOR_SUBCMD_AVOID_FREQUENCY was defined
to carry the list of avoid frequencies that aim to avoid any
interference with other coexistencies. This recommendation was followed
strictly by trying to prevent WLAN traffic on the impacted channels.
This commit refines the expectation of the interface by defining this
avoid channel list to allow minimal traffic but not heavier one. For
example, P2P may still be able to use avoid list frequencies for P2P
discovery and GO negotiation if the actual group can be set up on a not
impact channel.

This new QCA vendor command is used to query the supported AKM suite
selectors from the driver. There has been no such capability indication
from the driver and thus the current user space has to assume the driver
to support all the AKMs. This may be the case with some drivers (e.g.,
mac80211-based ones) but there are cfg80211-based drivers that implement
SME and have constraints on which AKMs can be supported (e.g., such
drivers may need an update to support SAE AKM using
NL80211_CMD_EXTERNAL_AUTH). Allow such drivers to specify the exact set
of supported AKMs so that user space tools can determine what network
profile options should be allowed to be configured. This command returns
the list of supported AKM suite selectors in the attribute
NL80211_ATTR_AKM_SUITES.

Add interface for drivers to report changes in TX/RX throughput
dynamically to user space. This information can be used by userspace
tools to tune kernel's TCP parameters in order to achieve peak
throughput. The driver may optionally provide guidance on which TCP
parameters to be configured for optimal performance along with the
values to be configured.
The TCP parameters that need to be tuned for peak performance are not
interface specific. Based on the guidance from the driver and
considering the other interfaces that may be affected with the new
configurations, a userspace tool has to choose the values to be
configured for these parameters to achieve optimal performance across
interfaces.
The throughput levels informed by the driver with this event are only
for providing guidance on TCP parameter tuning from userspace. The
driver may change the thresholds used to decide low or medium or high
throughput levels based on several parameters based on the PHY layer
capacity in the current connection, the number of packets being
dispatched per second, or the number of packets pending in queues, etc.
The throughput levels may not be consistent with the actual throughput
of the link.
