      nl80211: increase wiphy dump size dynamically · 645e77de
      Johannes Berg authored
      
      Given a device with many channels capabilities the wiphy
      information can still overflow even though its size in
      3.9 was reduced to 3.8 levels. For new userspace and
      kernel 3.10 we're going to implement a new "split dump"
      protocol that can use multiple messages per wiphy.
      
      For now though, add a workaround to be able to send more
      information to userspace. Since generic netlink doesn't
      have a way to set the minimum dump size globally, and we
      wouldn't really want to set it globally anyway, increase
      the size only when needed, as described in the comments.
      As userspace might not be prepared for large buffers, we
      can only use 4k.
      
      Also increase the size for the get_wiphy command.

      nl80211: remove TCP WoWLAN information · 162589f7
      Johannes Berg authored
      
      Just like the radar information, the TCP WoWLAN capability
      data can increase the wiphy information and make it too
      big. Remove the TCP WoWLAN information; no driver supports
      it and new userspace tools will be required as well.

      nl80211: remove radar information · 1c33a059
      Johannes Berg authored
      
      The wiphy information is getting very close to being too
      much for a typical netlink dump message and adding the
      radar attributes to channels and interface combinations
      can push it over the limit, which means userspace gets no
      information whatsoever. Therefore, remove these again for
      now, no driver actually supports radar detection anyway
      and a modified userspace is required as well.
      
      We're working on a solution that will allow userspace to
      request splitting the information across multiple netlink
      messages, which will allow us to add this back.
