LoRaWAN defined by LoRa Alliance(TM) is the MAC layer over LoRa devices.

This patch implements part of Class A end-devices features defined in
LoRaWAN(TM) Specification Ver. 1.0.2:
1. End-device receive slot timing
2. Only single channel and single data rate for now
3. Unconfirmed data up/down message types
4. Encryption/decryption for up/down link data messages

It also implements the the functions and maps to Datagram socket for
LoRaWAN unconfirmed data messages.

On the other side, it defines the basic interface and operation
functions for compatible LoRa device drivers.

Can we use include/linux/lora/lorawan.h for simplicity?

 create mode 100644 net/maclorawan/Kconfig
 create mode 100644 net/maclorawan/Makefile
 create mode 100644 net/maclorawan/lorawan.h
 create mode 100644 net/maclorawan/lrwsec.c
 create mode 100644 net/maclorawan/lrwsec.h

 create mode 100644 net/maclorawan/main.c

This patch is much too large for me to review...

It also doesn't seem to follow the structure I suggested: 802.15.4 has
two separate directories, net/ieee802154/ and net/mac802154/. Therefore
I had suggested net/maclorawan/ only for code that translates from
ETH_P_LORAWAN to ETH_P_LORA socket buffers, i.e. your soft MAC. Generic
socket code that applies also to hard MAC drivers I expected to go
either to net/lora/lorawan/ or better net/lorawan/ or some other clearly
separate location, with its own Kconfig symbol - any reason not to?
Consider which parts can be enabled/used independently of each other,
then you can put them into two (or more?) different patches.

Also please use SPDX license identifiers in your headers.
And please don't put the whole world in To, use CC.

Thanks,
Andreas
