Most of the PHYs seem to cope with the standard filtering rules by
default. Some of them might not, like hwsim which is only software, and
in this case advertises its real filtering level with the new
"filtering" internal value.

The core then needs to check what is expected by looking at the PHY
requested filtering level and possibly apply additional filtering
rules.

yes, as I said before hwsim should pretend to be like all other
hardware we have.

We switch here from determine that receive path, means way we are
going from interface type to the required filtering value. Sure there
is currently a 1:1 mapping for them now but I don't know why we are
doing that and this is in my opinion wrong. The receive path should
depend on interface type as it was before and for scanning there is
some early check like:

if (wpan_phy_is_in_scan_mode_state(local)) {
     do_receive_scanning(...)
     /* don't do any other delivery because they provide it to upper layer */
     return;
}

Maybe you should do monitors receive that frame before as well, but
every other interface type should currently not receive it.

In the assumption we know if the condition above is true we have
address filtering disabled.

Maybe on this one I am not fully convinced yet.

In your opinion (I try to rephrase so that we align on what you told
me) the total lack of filtering is only something that is reserved to
monitor interfaces, so you make an implicit link between interface type
and filtering level.

I would argue that this is true today, but as the "no filtering at all"
level is defined in the spec, I assumed it was a possible level that
one would want to achieve some day (not sure for what purpose yet). So
I assumed it would be more relevant to only work with the
expected filtering level in the receive path rather than on the
interface type, it makes more sense IMHO. In practice I agree it should
be the same filtering-wise, but from a conceptual point of view I find
the current logic partially satisfying.

Would you agree with me only using "expected filtering levels" rather
than:
- sometimes the interface type
- sometimes the mac state (scan)
- otherwise, by default, the highest filtering level
?

I think it would clarify the receive path.

I will of course get rid of most of all the other "nasty"
software filtering additions you nacked in the other threads.

it always depends on the use case, but in the sense of filtering-level
in "normal" operating mode and calling netif_skb_deliver_foo(), yes.

The use case for e.g. scan is different and mac802154 takes control of it.

I don't quite follow here. I would say we currently only support to
tell the hardware the whole filtering level (with AACK support) or the
non-filtering level. With both we should somehow able to support
interface types which requires

I think so, yes? I don't know what "otherwise, by default, the highest
filtering level" means, it is the interface type which declares what
it's actually needs at netif_skb_deliver_foo(), e.g. monitors will
call netif_skb_deliver_foo() even without AACK support... because
that's how they working. They also don't have an address in the
network. It is a kind of experimenting, debugging, or making chaos in
your network interface type.

For other node, or coordinator interfaces? They need at least AACK
support (and they having a valid address filtering going on) they need
it...

however on scan I would say then they are in a kind of "hidden"
non-operating interface and the phy will do some operation on phy
level and do something and restore after it's done. Scan should not
have anything todo with interfaces, BUT there might be the possibility
to specify the interface on iwpan layer to make a scan, _however_ it
will be only a shortcut to specify the phy which the interface is
using...
