[v2,00/13] Roam blacklisting and scan BSS groups

Message

James Prestwood March 24, 2025, 2:15 p.m. UTC

Version 2 combines the main patch set and another fix that was sent
individually. In addition there were some changes made to the
overall set of patches:

 - Renamed the blacklist reasons
   BLACKLIST_REASON_PERMANENT -> BLACKLIST_REASON_CONNECT_FAILED
   BLACKLIST_REASON_TEMPORARY -> BLACKLIST_REASON_TRANSIENT_ERROR

 - Added documentation for the two new main.conf options added

 - Added more autotests

 - OptimalSignalThreshold was moved from [Scan] -> [General] as
   it fits a lot better there along with the other roaming
   thresholds.
 

James Prestwood (13):
  station: always network (temp) blacklist on failure
  auto-t: add test for disabling the timeout blacklist
  blacklist: include a blacklist reason when adding/finding
  blacklist: fix pruning to remove the entry if its expired
  blacklist: add BLACKLIST_REASON_TRANSIENT_ERROR
  network: update to use blacklist's new temporary type
  blacklist: add new blacklist reason, ROAM_REQUESTED
  scan: Introduce higher level scan BSS groups
  station: roam blacklist BSS when a roam is requested
  station: roam blacklist AP even mid-roam
  station: adapt roam scan logic to look at the bss group
  auto-t: add tests for AP roam blacklisting
  doc: document OptimalSignalThreshold and InitialRoamRequestedTimeout
