wimax: move out to staging
There are no known users of this driver as of October 2020, and it will be removed unless someone turns out to still need it in future releases. According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WiMAX_networks, there have been many public wimax networks, but it appears that many of these have migrated to LTE or discontinued their service altogether. As most PCs and phones lack WiMAX hardware support, the remaining networks tend to use standalone routers. These almost certainly run Linux, but not a modern kernel or the mainline wimax driver stack. NetworkManager appears to have dropped userspace support in 2015 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=747846, the www.linuxwimax.org site had already shut down earlier. WiMax is apparently still being deployed on airport campus networks ("AeroMACS"), but in a frequency band that was not supported by the old Intel 2400m (used in Sandy Bridge laptops and earlier), which is the only driver using the kernel's wimax stack. Move all files into drivers/staging/wimax, including the uapi header files and documentation, to make it easier to remove it when it gets to that. Only minimal changes are made to the source files, in order to make it possible to port patches across the move. Also remove the MAINTAINERS entry that refers to a broken mailing list and website.

- * Linux WiMAX
- * Collection of tools to manage debug operations.

- * Don't #include this file directly, read on!
- *
- * EXECUTING DEBUGGING ACTIONS OR NOT
- *
- * The main thing this framework provides is decission power to take a
- * debug action (like printing a message) if the current debug level
- * allows it.
- *
- * The decission power is at two levels: at compile-time (what does
- * not make it is compiled out) and at run-time. The run-time
- * selection is done per-submodule (as they are declared by the user
- * of the framework).
- *
- * A call to d_test(L) (L being the target debug level) returns true
- * if the action should be taken because the current debug levels
- * allow it (both compile and run time).
- *
- * It follows that a call to d_test() that can be determined to be
- * always false at compile time will get the code depending on it
- * compiled out by optimization.
- *
- * DEBUG LEVELS
- *
- * It is up to the caller to define how much a debugging level is.
- *
- * Convention sets 0 as "no debug" (so an action marked as debug level 0
- * will always be taken). The increasing debug levels are used for
- * increased verbosity.
- *
- * USAGE
- *
- * Group the code in modules and submodules inside each module [which
- * in most cases maps to Linux modules and .c files that compose
- * those].
- *
- * For each module, there is:
- *
- * - a MODULENAME (single word, legal C identifier)
- *
- * - a debug-levels.h header file that declares the list of
- * submodules and that is included by all .c files that use
- * the debugging tools. The file name can be anything.
- *
- * - some (optional) .c code to manipulate the runtime debug levels
- * through debugfs.
- *
- * The debug-levels.h file would look like:
- *
- * #ifndef __debug_levels__h__
- * #define __debug_levels__h__
- *
- * #define D_MODULENAME modulename
- * #define D_MASTER 10
- *
- * #include <linux/wimax/debug.h>
- *
- * enum d_module {
- * D_SUBMODULE_DECLARE(submodule_1),
- * D_SUBMODULE_DECLARE(submodule_2),
- * ...
- * D_SUBMODULE_DECLARE(submodule_N)
- * };
- *
- * #endif
- *
- * D_MASTER is the maximum compile-time debug level; any debug actions
- * above this will be out. D_MODULENAME is the module name (legal C
- * identifier), which has to be unique for each module (to avoid
- * namespace collisions during linkage). Note those #defines need to
- * be done before #including debug.h
- *
- * We declare N different submodules whose debug level can be
- * independently controlled during runtime.
- *
- * In a .c file of the module (and only in one of them), define the
- * following code:
- *
- * struct d_level D_LEVEL[] = {
- * D_SUBMODULE_DEFINE(submodule_1),
- * D_SUBMODULE_DEFINE(submodule_2),
- * ...
- * D_SUBMODULE_DEFINE(submodule_N),
- * };
- * size_t D_LEVEL_SIZE = ARRAY_SIZE(D_LEVEL);
- *
- * Externs for d_level_MODULENAME and d_level_size_MODULENAME are used
- * and declared in this file using the D_LEVEL and D_LEVEL_SIZE macros
- * #defined also in this file.
- *
- * To manipulate from user space the levels, create a debugfs dentry
- * and then register each submodule with:
- *
- * d_level_register_debugfs("PREFIX_", submodule_X, parent);
- *
- * Where PREFIX_ is a name of your chosing. This will create debugfs
- * file with a single numeric value that can be use to tweak it. To
- * remove the entires, just use debugfs_remove_recursive() on 'parent'.
- *
- * NOTE: remember that even if this will show attached to some
- * particular instance of a device, the settings are *global*.
- *
- * On each submodule (for example, .c files), the debug infrastructure
- * should be included like this:
- *
- * #define D_SUBMODULE submodule_x // matches one in debug-levels.h
- * #include "debug-levels.h"
- *
- * after #including all your include files.
- *
- * Now you can use the d_*() macros below [d_test(), d_fnstart(),
- * d_fnend(), d_printf(), d_dump()].
- *
- * If their debug level is greater than D_MASTER, they will be
- * compiled out.
- *
- * If their debug level is lower or equal than D_MASTER but greater
- * than the current debug level of their submodule, they'll be
- * ignored.
- *
- * Otherwise, the action will be performed.

- * Linux WiMAX
- * Kernel space API for accessing WiMAX devices
- *
- * Copyright (C) 2007-2008 Intel Corporation <linux-wimax@intel.com>
- * Inaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky.perez-gonzalez@intel.com>
- *
- * The WiMAX stack provides an API for controlling and managing the
- * system's WiMAX devices. This API affects the control plane; the
- * data plane is accessed via the network stack (netdev).
- *
- * Parts of the WiMAX stack API and notifications are exported to
- * user space via Generic Netlink. In user space, libwimax (part of
- * the wimax-tools package) provides a shim layer for accessing those
- * calls.
- *
- * The API is standarized for all WiMAX devices and different drivers
- * implement the backend support for it. However, device-specific
- * messaging pipes are provided that can be used to issue commands and
- * receive notifications in free form.
- *
- * Currently the messaging pipes are the only means of control as it
- * is not known (due to the lack of more devices in the market) what
- * will be a good abstraction layer. Expect this to change as more
- * devices show in the market. This API is designed to be growable in
- * order to address this problem.
- *
- * USAGE
- *
- * Embed a `struct wimax_dev` at the beginning of the device's
- * private structure, initialize and register it. For details, see
- * `struct wimax_dev`s documentation.
- *
- * Once this is done, wimax-tools's libwimaxll can be used to
- * communicate with the driver from user space. You user space
- * application does not have to forcibily use libwimaxll and can talk
- * the generic netlink protocol directly if desired.
- *
- * Remember this is a very low level API that will to provide all of
- * WiMAX features. Other daemons and services running in user space
- * are the expected clients of it. They offer a higher level API that
- * applications should use (an example of this is the Intel's WiMAX
- * Network Service for the i2400m).
- *
- * DESIGN
- *
- * Although not set on final stone, this very basic interface is
- * mostly completed. Remember this is meant to grow as new common
- * operations are decided upon. New operations will be added to the
- * interface, intent being on keeping backwards compatibility as much
- * as possible.
- *
- * This layer implements a set of calls to control a WiMAX device,
- * exposing a frontend to the rest of the kernel and user space (via
- * generic netlink) and a backend implementation in the driver through
- * function pointers.
- *
- * WiMAX devices have a state, and a kernel-only API allows the
- * drivers to manipulate that state. State transitions are atomic, and
- * only some of them are allowed (see `enum wimax_st`).
- *
- * Most API calls will set the state automatically; in most cases
- * drivers have to only report state changes due to external
- * conditions.
- *
- * All API operations are 'atomic', serialized through a mutex in the
- * `struct wimax_dev`.
- *
- * EXPORTING TO USER SPACE THROUGH GENERIC NETLINK
- *
- * The API is exported to user space using generic netlink (other
- * methods can be added as needed).
- *
- * There is a Generic Netlink Family named "WiMAX", where interfaces
- * supporting the WiMAX interface receive commands and broadcast their
- * signals over a multicast group named "msg".
- *
- * Mapping to the source/destination interface is done by an interface
- * index attribute.
- *
- * For user-to-kernel traffic (commands) we use a function call
- * marshalling mechanism, where a message X with attributes A, B, C
- * sent from user space to kernel space means executing the WiMAX API
- * call wimax_X(A, B, C), sending the results back as a message.
- *
- * Kernel-to-user (notifications or signals) communication is sent
- * over multicast groups. This allows to have multiple applications
- * monitoring them.
- *
- * Each command/signal gets assigned it's own attribute policy. This
- * way the validator will verify that all the attributes in there are
- * only the ones that should be for each command/signal. Thing of an
- * attribute mapping to a type+argumentname for each command/signal.
- *
- * If we had a single policy for *all* commands/signals, after running
- * the validator we'd have to check "does this attribute belong in
- * here"? for each one. It can be done manually, but it's just easier
- * to have the validator do that job with multiple policies. As well,
- * it makes it easier to later expand each command/signal signature
- * without affecting others and keeping the namespace more or less
- * sane. Not that it is too complicated, but it makes it even easier.
- *
- * No state information is maintained in the kernel for each user
- * space connection (the connection is stateless).
- *
- * TESTING FOR THE INTERFACE AND VERSIONING
- *
- * If network interface X is a WiMAX device, there will be a Generic
- * Netlink family named "WiMAX X" and the device will present a
- * "wimax" directory in it's network sysfs directory
- * (/sys/class/net/DEVICE/wimax) [used by HAL].
- *
- * The inexistence of any of these means the device does not support
- * this WiMAX API.
- *
- * By querying the generic netlink controller, versioning information
- * and the multicast groups available can be found. Applications using
- * the interface can either rely on that or use the generic netlink
- * controller to figure out which generic netlink commands/signals are
- * supported.
- *
- * NOTE: this versioning is a last resort to avoid hard
- * incompatibilities. It is the intention of the design of this
- * stack not to introduce backward incompatible changes.
- *
- * The version code has to fit in one byte (restrictions imposed by
- * generic netlink); we use `version / 10` for the major version and
- * `version % 10` for the minor. This gives 9 minors for each major
- * and 25 majors.
- *
- * The version change protocol is as follow:
- *
- * - Major versions: needs to be increased if an existing message/API
- * call is changed or removed. Doesn't need to be changed if a new
- * message is added.
- *
- * - Minor version: needs to be increased if new messages/API calls are
- * being added or some other consideration that doesn't impact the
- * user-kernel interface too much (like some kind of bug fix) and
- * that is kind of left up in the air to common sense.
- *
- * User space code should not try to work if the major version it was
- * compiled for differs from what the kernel offers. As well, if the
- * minor version of the kernel interface is lower than the one user
- * space is expecting (the one it was compiled for), the kernel
- * might be missing API calls; user space shall be ready to handle
- * said condition. Use the generic netlink controller operations to
- * find which ones are supported and which not.
- *
- * libwimaxll:wimaxll_open() takes care of checking versions.
- *
- * THE OPERATIONS:
- *
- * Each operation is defined in its on file (drivers/net/wimax/op-*.c)
- * for clarity. The parts needed for an operation are:
- *
- * - a function pointer in `struct wimax_dev`: optional, as the
- * operation might be implemented by the stack and not by the
- * driver.
- *
- * All function pointers are named wimax_dev->op_*(), and drivers
- * must implement them except where noted otherwise.
- *
- * - When exported to user space, a `struct nla_policy` to define the
- * attributes of the generic netlink command and a `struct genl_ops`
- * to define the operation.
- *
- * All the declarations for the operation codes (WIMAX_GNL_OP_<NAME>)
- * and generic netlink attributes (WIMAX_GNL_<NAME>_*) are declared in
- * include/linux/wimax.h; this file is intended to be cloned by user
- * space to gain access to those declarations.
- *
- * A few caveats to remember:
- *
- * - Need to define attribute numbers starting in 1; otherwise it
- * fails.
- *
- * - the `struct genl_family` requires a maximum attribute id; when
- * defining the `struct nla_policy` for each message, it has to have
- * an array size of WIMAX_GNL_ATTR_MAX+1.
- *
- * The op_*() function pointers will not be called if the wimax_dev is
- * in a state <= %WIMAX_ST_UNINITIALIZED. The exception is:
- *
- * - op_reset: can be called at any time after wimax_dev_add() has
- * been called.
- *
- * THE PIPE INTERFACE:
- *
- * This interface is kept intentionally simple. The driver can send
- * and receive free-form messages to/from user space through a
- * pipe. See drivers/net/wimax/op-msg.c for details.
- *
- * The kernel-to-user messages are sent with
- * wimax_msg(). user-to-kernel messages are delivered via
- * wimax_dev->op_msg_from_user().
- *
- * RFKILL:
- *
- * RFKILL support is built into the wimax_dev layer; the driver just
- * needs to call wimax_report_rfkill_{hw,sw}() to inform of changes in
- * the hardware or software RF kill switches. When the stack wants to
- * turn the radio off, it will call wimax_dev->op_rfkill_sw_toggle(),
- * which the driver implements.
- *
- * User space can set the software RF Kill switch by calling
- * wimax_rfkill().
- *
- * The code for now only supports devices that don't require polling;
- * If the device needs to be polled, create a self-rearming delayed
- * work struct for polling or look into adding polled support to the
- * WiMAX stack.
- *
- * When initializing the hardware (_probe), after calling
- * wimax_dev_add(), query the device for it's RF Kill switches status
- * and feed it back to the WiMAX stack using
- * wimax_report_rfkill_{hw,sw}(). If any switch is missing, always
- * report it as ON.
- *
- * NOTE: the wimax stack uses an inverted terminology to that of the
- * RFKILL subsystem:
- *
- * - ON: radio is ON, RFKILL is DISABLED or OFF.
- * - OFF: radio is OFF, RFKILL is ENABLED or ON.
- *
- * MISCELLANEOUS OPS:
- *
- * wimax_reset() can be used to reset the device to power on state; by
- * default it issues a warm reset that maintains the same device
- * node. If that is not possible, it falls back to a cold reset
- * (device reconnect). The driver implements the backend to this
- * through wimax_dev->op_reset().

-/**
- * struct wimax_dev - Generic WiMAX device
- *
- * @net_dev: [fill] Pointer to the &struct net_device this WiMAX
- * device implements.
- *
- * @op_msg_from_user: [fill] Driver-specific operation to
- * handle a raw message from user space to the driver. The
- * driver can send messages to user space using with
- * wimax_msg_to_user().
- *
- * @op_rfkill_sw_toggle: [fill] Driver-specific operation to act on
- * userspace (or any other agent) requesting the WiMAX device to
- * change the RF Kill software switch (WIMAX_RF_ON or
- * WIMAX_RF_OFF).
- * If such hardware support is not present, it is assumed the
- * radio cannot be switched off and it is always on (and the stack
- * will error out when trying to switch it off). In such case,
- * this function pointer can be left as NULL.
- *
- * @op_reset: [fill] Driver specific operation to reset the
- * device.
- * This operation should always attempt first a warm reset that
- * does not disconnect the device from the bus and return 0.
- * If that fails, it should resort to some sort of cold or bus
- * reset (even if it implies a bus disconnection and device
- * disappearance). In that case, -ENODEV should be returned to
- * indicate the device is gone.
- * This operation has to be synchronous, and return only when the
- * reset is complete. In case of having had to resort to bus/cold
- * reset implying a device disconnection, the call is allowed to
- * return immediately.
- * NOTE: wimax_dev->mutex is NOT locked when this op is being
- * called; however, wimax_dev->mutex_reset IS locked to ensure
- * serialization of calls to wimax_reset().
- * See wimax_reset()'s documentation.
- *
- * @name: [fill] A way to identify this device. We need to register a
- * name with many subsystems (rfkill, workqueue creation, etc).
- * We can't use the network device name as that
- * might change and in some instances we don't know it yet (until
- * we don't call register_netdev()). So we generate an unique one
- * using the driver name and device bus id, place it here and use
- * it across the board. Recommended naming:
- * DRIVERNAME-BUSNAME:BUSID (dev->bus->name, dev->bus_id).
- *
- * @id_table_node: [private] link to the list of wimax devices kept by
- * id-table.c. Protected by it's own spinlock.
- *
- * @mutex: [private] Serializes all concurrent access and execution of
- * operations.
- *
- * @mutex_reset: [private] Serializes reset operations. Needs to be a
- * different mutex because as part of the reset operation, the
- * driver has to call back into the stack to do things such as
- * state change, that require wimax_dev->mutex.
- *
- * @state: [private] Current state of the WiMAX device.
- *
- * @rfkill: [private] integration into the RF-Kill infrastructure.
- *
- * @rf_sw: [private] State of the software radio switch (OFF/ON)
- *
- * @rf_hw: [private] State of the hardware radio switch (OFF/ON)
- *
- * @debugfs_dentry: [private] Used to hook up a debugfs entry. This
- * shows up in the debugfs root as wimax\:DEVICENAME.
- *
- * Description:
- * This structure defines a common interface to access all WiMAX
- * devices from different vendors and provides a common API as well as
- * a free-form device-specific messaging channel.
- *
- * Usage:
- * 1. Embed a &struct wimax_dev at *the beginning* the network
- * device structure so that netdev_priv() points to it.
- *
- * 2. memset() it to zero
- *
- * 3. Initialize with wimax_dev_init(). This will leave the WiMAX
- * device in the %__WIMAX_ST_NULL state.
- *
- * 4. Fill all the fields marked with [fill]; once called
- * wimax_dev_add(), those fields CANNOT be modified.
- *
- * 5. Call wimax_dev_add() *after* registering the network
- * device. This will leave the WiMAX device in the %WIMAX_ST_DOWN
- * state.
- * Protect the driver's net_device->open() against succeeding if
- * the wimax device state is lower than %WIMAX_ST_DOWN.
- *
- * 6. Select when the device is going to be turned on/initialized;
- * for example, it could be initialized on 'ifconfig up' (when the
- * netdev op 'open()' is called on the driver).
- *
- * When the device is initialized (at `ifconfig up` time, or right
- * after calling wimax_dev_add() from _probe(), make sure the
- * following steps are taken
- *
- * a. Move the device to %WIMAX_ST_UNINITIALIZED. This is needed so
- * some API calls that shouldn't work until the device is ready
- * can be blocked.
- *
- * b. Initialize the device. Make sure to turn the SW radio switch
- * off and move the device to state %WIMAX_ST_RADIO_OFF when
- * done. When just initialized, a device should be left in RADIO
- * OFF state until user space devices to turn it on.
- *
- * c. Query the device for the state of the hardware rfkill switch
- * and call wimax_rfkill_report_hw() and wimax_rfkill_report_sw()
- * as needed. See below.
- *
- * wimax_dev_rm() undoes before unregistering the network device. Once
- * wimax_dev_add() is called, the driver can get called on the
- * wimax_dev->op_* function pointers
- *
- * CONCURRENCY:
- *
- * The stack provides a mutex for each device that will disallow API
- * calls happening concurrently; thus, op calls into the driver
- * through the wimax_dev->op*() function pointers will always be
- * serialized and *never* concurrent.
- *
- * For locking, take wimax_dev->mutex is taken; (most) operations in
- * the API have to check for wimax_dev_is_ready() to return 0 before
- * continuing (this is done internally).
- *
- * REFERENCE COUNTING:
- *
- * The WiMAX device is reference counted by the associated network
- * device. The only operation that can be used to reference the device
- * is wimax_dev_get_by_genl_info(), and the reference it acquires has
- * to be released with dev_put(wimax_dev->net_dev).
- *
- * RFKILL:
- *
- * At startup, both HW and SW radio switchess are assumed to be off.
- *
- * At initialization time [after calling wimax_dev_add()], have the
- * driver query the device for the status of the software and hardware
- * RF kill switches and call wimax_report_rfkill_hw() and
- * wimax_rfkill_report_sw() to indicate their state. If any is
- * missing, just call it to indicate it is ON (radio always on).
- *
- * Whenever the driver detects a change in the state of the RF kill
- * switches, it should call wimax_report_rfkill_hw() or
- * wimax_report_rfkill_sw() to report it to the stack.
