2015-03-16mac80211: ignore CSA to same channelJohannes Berg
If the AP is confused and starts doing a CSA to the same channel, just ignore that request instead of trying to act it out since it was likely sent in error anyway. In the case of the bug I was investigating the GO was misbehaving and sending out a beacon with CSA IEs still included after having actually done the channel switch.

2015-03-16mac80211: ask for ECSA IE to be considered for beacon parse CRCJohannes Berg
When a beacon from the AP contains only the ECSA IE, and not a CSA IE as well, this ECSA IE is not considered for calculating the CRC and the beacon might be dropped as not being interesting. This is clearly wrong, it should be handled and the channel switch should be executed. Fix this by including the ECSA IE ID in the bitmap of interesting IEs.

2015-03-16mac80211: count interfaces correctly for combination checksAndrei Otcheretianski
Since moving the interface combination checks to mac80211, it's broken because it now only considers interfaces with an assigned channel context, so for example any interface that isn't active can still be up, which is clearly an issue; also, in particular P2P-Device wdevs are an issue since they never have a chanctx. Fix this by counting running interfaces instead the ones with a channel context assigned.

2015-03-04mac80211: don't do driver suspend with auth/assoc in progressJohannes Berg
Drivers can't really be expected to suspend properly while auth or assoc is in progress since then they don't have any state they could keep with WoWLAN, nor can they actually finish the authentication or association. In fact, keeping this can cause subtle issues with drivers like iwlwifi that refuse WoWLAN if not associated, but have trouble figuring out what's going on in the middle of association. In any case, regardless of possible driver issues in this area, it doesn't make sense for mac80211 to try to WoWLAN-suspend in the middle of such operations, so stop them before.

2015-03-03mac80211: fix another suspend vs. association raceJohannes Berg
Since cfg80211 disconnects, but has no insight into the association process, it can happen that it disconnects while association is in progress. We then try to abort association in mac80211, but this is only later so the association can complete between the two. This results in removing an interface from the driver while bound to the channel context, obviously causing confusion and issues. Solve this by also checking if we're associated during quiesce and if so deauthenticating. The frame will no longer go out to the AP which is a bit unfortunate, but it'll resolve the crash (and before we would have suspended without telling the AP as well.) I'm working on a better, but more complex solution as well, which should avoid that problem. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2015-03-03mac80211: Update beacon's timing and DTIM count on every beaconAlexander Bondar
Beacon's timestamp, device system time associated with this beacon and DTIM count parameters are not updated in the associated vif context if the latest beacon's content is identical to the previously received. It make sense to update these changing parameters on every beacon so the driver can get most updated values. This may be necessary, for example, to avoid either beacons' drift effect or device time stamp overrun. IMPORTANT: Three sync_* parameters - sync_ts, sync_device_ts and sync_dtim_count would possibly be out of sync by the time the driver will use them.

The same 2 bits that were interpreted as "ESS" and "IBSS" before are re-used as a 2-bit field with 3 valid values (and 1 reserved). Valid values are: "IBSS", "PBSS" (new) and "AP". In order to get the BSS struct for the new PBSS networks, change the cfg80211_get_bss() function to take a new enum ieee80211_bss_type argument with the valid network types, as "capa_mask" and "capa_val" no longer work correctly (the search must be band-aware now.)

2015-03-03mac80211: disable u-APSD queues by defaultMichal Kazior
Some APs experience problems when working with U-APSD. Decreasing the probability of that happening by using legacy mode for all ACs but VO isn't enough. Cisco 4410N originally forced us to enable VO by default only because it treated non-VO ACs as legacy. However some APs (notably Netgear R7000) silently reclassify packets to different ACs. Since u-APSD ACs require trigger frames for frame retrieval clients would never see some frames (e.g. ARP responses) or would fetch them accidentally after a long time. It makes little sense to enable u-APSD queues by default because it needs userspace applications to be aware of it to actually take advantage of the possible additional powersavings. Implicitly depending on driver autotrigger frame support doesn't make much sense.

Revert commit ad38bfc916da ("mac80211: Tx frame latency statistics") (along with some follow-up fixes). This code turned out not to be as useful in the current form as we thought, and we've internally hacked it up more, but that's not very suitable for upstream (for now), and we might just do that with tracing instead. Therefore, for now at least, remove this code. We might also need to use the skb->tstamp field for the TCP performance issue, which is more important than the debugging.

2015-02-28nl/mac80211: allow zero plink timeout to disable STA expirationMasashi Honma
Both wpa_supplicant and mac80211 have and inactivity timer. By default wpa_supplicant will be timed out in 5 minutes and mac80211's it is 30 minutes. If wpa_supplicant uses a longer timer than mac80211, it will get unexpected disconnection by mac80211. Using 0xffffffff instead as the configured value could solve this w/o changing the code, but due to integer overflow in the expression used this doesn't work. The expression is: (current jiffies) > (frame Rx jiffies + NL80211_MESHCONF_PLINK_TIMEOUT * 250) On 32bit system, the right side would overflow and be a very small value if NL80211_MESHCONF_PLINK_TIMEOUT is sufficiently large, causing unexpectedly early disconnections. Instead allow disabling the inactivity timer to avoid this situation, by passing the (previously invalid and useless) value 0.

2015-02-26mac80211: Send EAPOL frames at lowest rateJouni Malinen
The current minstrel_ht rate control behavior is somewhat optimistic in trying to find optimum TX rate. While this is usually fine for normal Data frames, there are cases where a more conservative set of retry parameters would be beneficial to make the connection more robust. EAPOL frames are critical to the authentication and especially the EAPOL-Key message 4/4 (the last message in the 4-way handshake) is important to get through to the AP. If that message is lost, the only recovery mechanism in many cases is to reassociate with the AP and start from scratch. This can often be avoided by trying to send the frame with more conservative rate and/or with more link layer retries. In most cases, minstrel_ht is currently using the initial EAPOL-Key frames for probing higher rates and this results in only five link layer transmission attempts (one at high(ish) MCS and four at MCS0). While this works with most APs, it looks like there are some deployed APs that may have issues with the EAPOL frames using HT MCS immediately after association. Similarly, there may be issues in cases where the signal strength or radio environment is not good enough to be able to get frames through even at couple of MCS 0 tries. The best approach for this would likely to be to reduce the TX rate for the last rate (3rd rate parameter in the set) to a low basic rate (say, 6 Mbps on 5 GHz and 2 or 5.5 Mbps on 2.4 GHz), but doing that cleanly requires some more effort. For now, we can start with a simple one-liner that forces the minimum rate to be used for EAPOL frames similarly how the TX rate is selected for the IEEE 802.11 Management frames. This does result in a small extra latency added to the cases where the AP would be able to receive the higher rate, but taken into account how small number of EAPOL frames are used, this is likely to be insignificant. A future optimization in the minstrel_ht design can also allow this patch to be reverted to get back to the more optimized initial TX rate. It should also be noted that many drivers that do not use minstrel as the rate control algorithm are already doing similar workarounds by forcing the lowest TX rate to be used for EAPOL frames.

2015-01-23mac80211: avoid races related to suspend flowEmmanuel Grumbach
When we go to suspend, there is complex set of states that avoids races. The quiescing variable is set whlie __ieee80211_suspend is running. Then suspended is set. The code makes sure there is no window without any of these flags. The problem is that workers can still be enqueued while we are quiescing. This leads to situations where the driver is already suspending and other flows like disassociation are handled by a worker. To fix this, we need to check quiescing and suspended flags in the worker itself and not only before enqueueing it.

2015-01-23mac80211: synchronize_net() before flushing the queuesEmmanuel Grumbach
When mac80211 disconnects, it drops all the packets on the queues. This happens after the net stack has been notified that we have no link anymore (netif_carrier_off). netif_carrier_off ensures that no new packets are sent to xmit() callback, but we might have older packets in the middle of the Tx path. These packets will land in the driver's queues after the latter have been flushed. Synchronize_net() between netif_carrier_off and drv_flush() will fix this. Note that we can't call synchronize_net inside ieee80211_flush_queues since there are flows that call ieee80211_flush_queues and don't need synchronize_net() which is an expensive operation.

2015-01-23mac80211: properly set CCK flag in radiotapMathy Vanhoef
Fix a regression introduced by commit a5e70697d0c4 ("mac80211: add radiotap flag and handling for 5/10 MHz") where the IEEE80211_CHAN_CCK channel type flag was incorrectly replaced by the IEEE80211_CHAN_OFDM flag. This commit fixes that by using the CCK flag again.

2015-01-23mac80211: only roll back station states for WDS when suspendingLuciano Coelho
In normal cases (i.e. when we are fully associated), cfg80211 takes care of removing all the stations before calling suspend in mac80211. But in the corner case when we suspend during authentication or association, mac80211 needs to roll back the station states. But we shouldn't roll back the station states in the suspend function, because this is taken care of in other parts of the code, except for WDS interfaces. For AP types of interfaces, cfg80211 takes care of disconnecting all stations before calling the driver's suspend code. For station interfaces, this is done in the quiesce code. For WDS interfaces we still need to do it here, so move the code into a new switch case for WDS.
