When mac80211 switches between non-MLO and MLO it will recreate the
debugfs directories. This results in the add_if_debugfs handler being
called multiple times. As the convenience symlink is created in the mld
debugfs directory and not the vif, it will not be removed by mac80211
when this happens and still exists.
Add a check and only create the convenience symlink if we have not yet
done so.

From the moment that we have ALIVE, we can receive notification that
are handled asynchronously.
Some notifications (for example iwl_rfi_support_notif) requires an
operational FW. So we need to make sure that they were handled in
iwl_op_mode_mld_start before we stop the FW. Flush the async_handlers_wk
there to achieve that.
Also, if loading the FW in op mode start failed, we need to cancel
these notifications, as they are from a dead FW.
More than that, not doing so can cause us to access freed memory
if async_handlers_wk is executed after ieee80211_free_hw is called.
Fix this by canceling all async notifications if a failure occurred in
init (after ALIVE).

The C sequence points are complicated things, and gcc-15 has apparently
added a warning for the case where an object is both used and modified
multiple times within the same sequence point.
That's a great warning.
Or rather, it would be a great warning, except gcc-15 seems to not
really be very exact about it, and doesn't notice that the modification
are to two entirely different members of the same object: the array
counter and the array entries.
So that seems kind of silly.
That said, the code that gcc complains about is unnecessarily
complicated, so moving the array counter update into a separate
statement seems like the most straightforward fix for these warnings:
drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/mld/d3.c: In function ‘iwl_mld_set_netdetect_info’:
drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/mld/d3.c:1102:66: error: operation on ‘netdetect_info->n_matches’ may be undefined [-Werror=sequence-point]

1120 | match->channels[match->n_channels++] =
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~
side note: the code at that second warning is actively buggy, and only
works on little-endian machines that don't do strict alignment checks.
The code casts an array of integers into an array of unsigned long in
order to use our bitmap iterators. That happens to work fine on any
sane architecture, but it's still wrong.
This does *not* fix that more serious problem. This only splits the two
assignments into two statements and fixes the compiler warning. I need
to get rid of the new warnings in order to be able to actually do any
build testing.

iwl_mld_remove_link removes the link from both the FW and from the
driver.
If removing it from the FW failed, we assume that the FW is
dead anyway and remove it from the driver as well.
On the other hand, we still return an error value, indicating the caller
(i.e. mac80211) that the link couldn't be removed - while it was
actually removed.
Later, mac80211 might tell the driver again to remove that link,
and then the driver will warn that it doesn't exist.
Fix this by making iwl_mld_remove_link a void function.

The WIPHY_DEBUGFS_READ_WRITE_FILE_OPS_MLD macro is intended to call
read/write handlers with the wiphy lock held. However, the current

Currently, we don't select a link that wasn't heared in the last 5

But if the link started to suffer from missed beacons more recent than

leading to a disconnection instead of a link switch.
Fix this by checking if a link was heared in the last MLO scan,
if not - don't include it in the link selection.

the OMI handshake to reduce bandwidth the driver wouldn't apply

OMI will only apply if the original bandwidth is > 80 MHz.) Fix

Since iwlmld claims wiphys to be self-managed, it needs to
have a regdomain registered before the wiphy is registered
to avoid issues when trying to get the regdomain, e.g. via
"iw phy phy0 reg get".
Move the initialization early, on every FW start not just
when starting to really operate it. This also requires the
self-managed flag to be set early.

The code was calling ieee80211_iterate_interfaces, however that
takes a lock of iflist_mtx, which must not be taken recursively. Fix
this by using the appropriate _mtx version that asserts that the wiphy
mutex is already held.

For each channel context, track the avarage channel load by others in the
driver specific phy data, to be used by EMLSR.
Due to FW limitations, this value is incorrect in EMLSR, so it is
shouldn't be used in EMLSR.
On EMLSR exit, clear it so the wrong value won't be used.

If the user disables power save of a vif that didn't have it enabled
(for example before association), mac80211 will not notify the driver
with BSS_CHANGED_PS. This will cause the driver to not update the
device-level power save to disabled.
Fix this by checking the vif's power save status upon authorization, and
stop considering the vif's power save status on disassociation.

iwlwifi is the driver of all Intel wifi devices since 2008.
Since then, the hardware has changed a lot, but the firmware
API has changed even more. The need to keep one driver that
supports all those different APIs led us to introduce a new
architecture circa 2012 which allowed us to keep the same
interface to the hardware (DMAs, Tx queues, etc...) with a
new layer to implement the mid-layer between mac80211 and
the firmware. The first component is called the 'transport'
and the latter is called 'operation_mode' a.k.a op_mode.
In 2013 we took advantage of the new architecture to
introduce iwlmvm which allowed us to implement the, then,
new firmware API. This op_mode supports 7260 and up, those
devices supports support at least VHT.
Since then, wifi evolved and so did the firmware. It became
much bigger and took a lot of functionality from the driver.
It became increasingly hard to keep the same op_mode for the
newest devices and we experienced frequent regressions on
older devices. In order to avoid those regressions and keep
the code maintainable, we decided it was about time to start
a new op_mode.
iwlmld is a new op_mode that supports BE200 or newer if the
firmware being used is 97.ucode or newer. If the user has
an older devices or BE200 with .96.ucode, iwlmvm will be
loaded. Of course, this op_mode selection is seamless.
All the features supported in iwlmvm are supported in
iwlmld besides a few seldom used use cases: injection and
Hotspot 2.0. Those are under work.
A few points about the implementation:
* iwlmld doesn't have any mutexes, it relies on the
wiphy_lock
* iwlmld is more "resource oriented": stations, links and
interfaces are allocated and freed only after all the
relevant flows are completed.
* Firmware notifications' sizes are validated in a more
structured way.
We would love to see this new op_mode merged in 6.15. The
firmware for this new driver (.97.ucode) is not yet publicly
available but it'll be sent very soon.

I've listed the people who directly contributed
code, but many others from various teams have
contributed in other ways.
