2015-07-17mac80211: upgrade BW of TDLS peers when possibleArik Nemtsov
Define a station chandef, to be used for wider-bw TDLS peers. When both peers support the feature, upgrade the channel bandwidth to the maximum allowed by both peers and regulatory. Currently widths up to 80MHz are supported in the 5GHz band. When a TDLS peer connects/disconnects recalculate the channel type of the current chanctx. Make the chanctx width calculation consider wider-bw TDLS peers and similarly fix the max_required_bw calculation for the chanctx min_def. Since the sta->bandwidth is calculated only later on, take bss_conf.chandef.width as the minimal width for station interface. Set the upgraded channel width in the VHT-operation set during TDLS setup.

2015-07-17mac80211: define TDLS wider BW support bitsArik Nemtsov
Allow a device to specify support for the TDLS wider-bandwidth feature. Indicate this support during TDLS setup in the ext-capab IE and set an appropriate station flag when our TDLS peer supports it. This feature gives TDLS peers the ability to use a wider channel than the base width of the BSS. For instance VHT capable TDLS peers connected on a 20MHz channel can extend the channel to 80MHz, if regulatory considerations allow it. Do not cap the bandwidth of such stations by the current BSS channel width in mac80211.

2015-07-17mac80211: duplicate station's MAC address for hash tableJohannes Berg
Currently, the station hash table lookup (or iteration) must access two cachelines for each station - the one with the hash table node, and the one with the MAC address. Duplicate the MAC address next to the hash node to get rid of this. Since the MAC address is static there's no consistency problem introduced by this.

2015-07-17mac80211: support device/driver PN check for CCMP/GCMPJohannes Berg
When there are multiple RX queues, the PN checks in mac80211 cannot be used since packets might be processed out of order on different CPUs. Allow the driver to report that the PN has been checked, drivers that will use multi-queue RX will have to set this flag. For now, the flag is only valid when the frame has been decrypted, in theory that restriction doesn't have to be there, but in practice the hardware will have decrypted the frame already.

2015-07-17mac80211: don't store napi structJohannes Berg
When introducing multiple RX queues, a single NAPI struct will not be sufficient. Instead of trying to store multiple, simply change the API to have the NAPI struct passed to the RX function. This of course means that drivers using rx_irqsafe() cannot use NAPI, but that seems a reasonable trade-off, particularly since only two of all drivers are currently using it at all. While at it, we can now remove the IEEE80211_RX_REORDER_TIMER flag again since this code path cannot have a napi struct anyway. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2015-07-17mac80211: add missing length check for confirm framesBob Copeland
Although mesh_rx_plink_frame() already checks that frames have enough bytes for the action code plus another two bytes for capability/reason code, it doesn't take into account that confirm frames also have an additional two-byte aid.

2015-07-17mac80211: shut down interfaces before destroying interface listJohannes Berg
If the hardware is unregistered while interfaces are up, mac80211 will unregister all interfaces, which in turns causes mac80211 to be called again to remove them all from the driver and eventually shut down the hardware. During this shutdown, however, it's currently already unsafe to iterate the list of interfaces atomically, as the list is manipulated in an unsafe manner. This puts an undue burden on the driver - it must stop all its activities before calling ieee80211_unregister_hw(), while in the normal stop path it can do all cleanup in the stop method. If, for example, it's using the iteration during RX for some reason, it would have to stop RX before unregistering to avoid crashes. Fix this problem by closing all interfaces before unregistering them. This will cause the driver stop to have completed before we manipulate the interface list, and after the driver is stopped *and* has called ieee80211_unregister_hw() it really musn't be iterating any more as the memory will be freed as well.

2015-07-17mac80211: wowlan: enable powersave if suspend while ps-pollingChaitanya T K
If for any reason we're in the middle of PS-polling or awake after TX due to dynamic powersave while going to suspend, go back to save power. This might cause a response frame to get lost, but since we can't really wait for it while going to suspend that's still better than not enabling powersave which would cause higher power usage during (and possibly even after) suspend. Note that this really only affects the very few drivers that use the powersave implementation in mac80211.

2015-07-17mac80211: don't clear all tx flags when requeingMichal Kazior
When acting as AP and a PS-Poll frame is received associated station is marked as one in a Service Period. This state is kept until Tx status for released frame is reported. While a station is in Service Period PS-Poll frames are ignored. However if PS-Poll was received during A-MPDU teardown it was possible to have the to-be released frame re-queued back to pending queue. In such case the frame was stripped of 2 important flags: (a) IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER (b) IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP Stripping of (a) led to the frame that was to be released to be queued back to ps_tx_buf queue. If station remained to use only PS-Poll frames the re-queued frame (and new ones) was never actually transmitted because mac80211 would ignore subsequent PS-Poll frames due to station being in Service Period. There was nothing left to clear the Service Period bit (no xmit -> no tx status -> no SP end), i.e. the AP would have the station stuck in Service Period. Beacon TIM would repeatedly prompt station to poll for frames but it would get none. Once (a) is not stripped (b) becomes important because it's the main condition to clear the Service Period bit of the station when Tx status for the released frame is reported back. This problem was observed with ath9k acting as P2P GO in some testing scenarios but isn't limited to it. AP operation with mac80211 based Tx A-MPDU control combined with clients using PS-Poll frames is subject to this race.

2015-06-23module: add per-module param_lockDan Streetman
Add a "param_lock" mutex to each module, and update params.c to use the correct built-in or module mutex while locking kernel params. Remove the kparam_block_sysfs_r/w() macros, replace them with direct calls to kernel_param_[un]lock(module). The kernel param code currently uses a single mutex to protect modification of any and all kernel params. While this generally works, there is one specific problem with it; a module callback function cannot safely load another module, i.e. with request_module() or even with indirect calls such as crypto_has_alg(). If the module to be loaded has any of its params configured (e.g. with a /etc/modprobe.d/* config file), then the attempt will result in a deadlock between the first module param callback waiting for modprobe, and modprobe trying to lock the single kernel param mutex to set the new module's param. This fixes that by using per-module mutexes, so that each individual module is protected against concurrent changes in its own kernel params, but is not blocked by changes to other module params. All built-in modules continue to use the built-in mutex, since they will always be loaded at runtime and references (e.g. request_module(), crypto_has_alg()) to them will never cause load-time param changing. This also simplifies the interface used by modules to block sysfs access to their params; while there are currently functions to block and unblock sysfs param access which are split up by read and write and expect a single kernel param to be passed, their actual operation is identical and applies to all params, not just the one passed to them; they simply lock and unlock the global param mutex. They are replaced with direct calls to kernel_param_[un]lock(THIS_MODULE), which locks THIS_MODULE's param_lock, or if the module is built-in, it locks the built-in mutex.

2015-06-10mac80211: Fix a case of incorrect metric used when forwarding a PREQAlexis Green
This patch fixes a bug in hwmp_preq_frame_process where the wrong metric can be used when forwarding a PREQ. This happens because the code uses the same metric variable to record the value of the metric to the source of the PREQ and the value of the metric to the target of the PREQ. This comes into play when both reply and forward are set which happens when IEEE80211_PREQ_PROACTIVE_PREP_FLAG is set and when MP_F_DO | MP_F_RF is set. The original code had a special case to handle the first case but not the second. The patch uses distinct variables for the two metrics which makes the code flow much clearer and removes the need to restore the original value of metric when forwarding.

Channels in 2.4GHz band overlap, this means that if we send a probe request on channel 1 and then move to channel 2, we will hear the probe response on channel 2. In this case, the RSSI will be lower than if we had heard it on the channel on which it was sent (1 in this case). The scan result ignores those invalid values and the station last signal should not be updated as well. In case the scan determines the signal to be invalid turn on the flag so the station last signal will not be updated with the value and thus user space probing for NL80211_STA_INFO_SIGNAL and NL80211_STA_INFO_SIGNAL_AVG will not get this invalid RSSI value.

This could be triggered, e.g. on ath10k with the following steps: 1. start an AP 2. create 2 extra vifs on ath10k host 3. connect vif1 to the AP 4. connect vif2 to the AP (auth fails because ath10k firmware isn't able to maintain 2 peers with colliding AP mac addresses across vifs and consequently refuses sta_info_insert() in ieee80211_prep_connection()) 5. remove the 2 extra vifs 6. goto step 2; at step 3 kernel was crashing: general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC Modules linked in: ath10k_pci ath10k_core ath ...

2015-06-09mac80211: handle aggregation session timeout on fast-xmit pathJohannes Berg
The conversion to the fast-xmit path lost proper aggregation session timeout handling - the last_tx wasn't set on that path and the timer would therefore incorrectly tear down the session periodically (with those drivers/rate control algorithms that have a timeout.) In case of iwlwifi, this was every 5 seconds and caused significant throughput degradation. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2015-06-02mac80211: rename single hw-scan flag to follow naming conventionJohannes Berg
The naming convention is to always have the flags prefixed with IEEE80211_HW_ so they're 'namespaced', make this flag follow it. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2015-06-02mac80211: remove short slot/short preamble incapable flagsJohannes Berg
There are no drivers setting IEEE80211_HW_2GHZ_SHORT_SLOT_INCAPABLE or IEEE80211_HW_2GHZ_SHORT_PREAMBLE_INCAPABLE, so any code using the two flags is dead; it's also exceedingly unlikely that any new driver could ever need to set these flags. The wcn36xx code is almost certainly broken, but this preserves the previous behaviour. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2015-06-02mac80211: stop using pointers as userspace cookiesJohannes Berg
Even if the pointers are really only accessible to root and used pretty much only by wpa_supplicant, this is still not great; even for debugging it'd be easier to have something that's easier to read and guaranteed to never get reused. With the recent change to make mac80211 create an ack_skb for the mgmt-tx path this becomes possible, only the client probe method needs to also allocate an ack_skb, and we can store the cookie in that skb.

2015-06-02mac80211: copy nl80211 mgmt TX SKB for statusJohannes Berg
When we return the TX status for an nl80211 mgmt TX SKB, we should also return the original frame with the status to allow userspace to match up the submission (it could also use the cookie but both ways are permissible.) As TX SKBs could be encrypted, at least in the case of ANQP while associated with the AP, copy the original SKB, store it with an ACK frame ID and restructure the status path to use that to return status with the original SKB. Otherwise, userspace (in particular wpa_supplicant) will get confused. Reported-by: Matti Gottlieb <matti.gottlieb@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2015-06-02mac80211: move TX PN to public part of key structJohannes Berg
For drivers supporting TSO or similar features, but that still have PN assignment in software, there's a need to have some memory to store the current PN value. As mac80211 already stores this and it's somewhat complicated to add a per-driver area to the key struct (due to the dynamic sizing thereof) it makes sense to just move the TX PN to the keyconf, i.e. the public part of the key struct. As TKIP is more complicated and we won't able to offload it in this way right now (fast-xmit is skipped for TKIP unless the HW does it all, and our hardware needs MMIC calculation in software) I've not moved that for now - it's possible but requires exposing a lot of the internal TKIP state. As an bonus side effect, we can remove a lot of code by assuming the keyseq struct has a certain layout - with BUILD_BUG_ON to verify it. This might also improve performance, since now TX and RX no longer share a cacheline.

2015-06-01mac80211: act upon and report deauth while associatingJohannes Berg
When trying to associate, the AP could send a deauth frame instead. Currently mac80211 drops that frame and doesn't report it to the supplicant, which, in some versions and/or in certain circumstances will simply keep trying to associate over and over again instead of trying authentication again. Fix this by reacting to deauth frames while associating, reporting them to the supplicant and dropping the association attempt (which is bound to fail.)

2015-05-29mac80211: prevent possible crypto tx tailroom corruptionMichal Kazior
There was a possible race between ieee80211_reconfig() and ieee80211_delayed_tailroom_dec(). This could result in inability to transmit data if driver crashed during roaming or rekeying and subsequent skbs with insufficient tailroom appeared. This race was probably never seen in the wild because a device driver would have to crash AND recover within 0.5s which is very unlikely. I was able to prove this race exists after changing the delay to 10s locally and crashing ath10k via debugfs immediately after GTK rekeying. In case of ath10k the counter went below 0. This was harmless but other drivers which actually require tailroom (e.g. for WEP ICV or MMIC) could end up with the counter at 0 instead of >0 and introduce insufficient skb tailroom failures because mac80211 would not resize skbs appropriately anymore.
