Currently whenever sta_flush() function is called, it flushes all stations connected to the given interface. However in case of MLO, all the links would be using the same interface and hence at certain cases flushing all stations is not desireable. There is a need to flush the stations based on link ID. This series aims to add support for the same. Currently two cases are handled - 1. During NL80211_CMD_DEL_STATION command handling. If this is called without any mac address, all stations present on that interfaces are flushed. More details in the patch [1/3] 2. During stopping link AP via ieee80211_stop_ap(). Again here, all stations are flushed. More details in the patch [3/3] Aditya Kumar Singh (3): wifi: cfg80211: add support for link id attribute in NL80211_CMD_DEL_STATION wifi: mac80211: add link id argument for sta_flush() function wifi: mac80211: remove only own link stations during stop_ap --- include/net/cfg80211.h | 3 +++ include/uapi/linux/nl80211.h | 3 ++- net/mac80211/cfg.c | 4 ++-- net/mac80211/ibss.c | 4 ++-- net/mac80211/iface.c | 2 +- net/mac80211/mesh.c | 2 +- net/mac80211/mlme.c | 2 +- net/mac80211/ocb.c | 2 +- net/mac80211/sta_info.c | 20 +++++++++++++------- net/mac80211/sta_info.h | 14 +++++++++++--- net/wireless/nl80211.c | 18 +++++++++++++++++- net/wireless/trace.h | 7 +++++-- 12 files changed, 59 insertions(+), 22 deletions(-) base-commit: acf868ff60b1cd1f2e597f0b15aee2ff43f9fcd3
