The patch "8f02e6b mac80211: make sure TDLS peer STA exists during setup" broke TDLS error paths where the STA doesn't exist when sending the error.

2014-07-21mac80211: track TDLS initiator internallyArik Nemtsov
Infer the TDLS initiator and track it in mac80211 via a STA flag. This avoids breaking old userspace that doesn't pass it via nl80211 APIs. The only case where userspace will need to pass the initiator is when the STA is removed due to unreachability before a teardown packet is sent. Support for unreachability was only recently added to wpa_supplicant, so it won't be a problem in practice.

This reverts commit 277d916fc2e959c3f106904116bb4f7b1148d47a as it was at least breaking iwlwifi by setting the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER flag in all kinds of interface modes, not only for AP mode where it is appropriate.

2014-06-25mac80211: split sched scan IEsDavid Spinadel
Split sched scan IEs to band specific and not band specific blocks. Common IEs blocks may be sent to the FW once per command, instead of per band. This allows optimization of size of the command, which may be required by some drivers (eg. iwlmvm with newer firmware version). As this changes the mac80211 API, update all drivers to use the new version correctly, even if they don't (yet) make use of the split data.

If a queue is assigned to more than one vif, the corresponding netdev subqueue of the other vif(s) will also be stopped.

Sometimes different vifs may be stopping the queues for the same reason (e.g. when several interfaces are performing a channel switch). Instead of using a bitmask for the reasons, use an integer that holds a refcount instead.

vif->csa_active is protected by mutexes only. This means it is unreliable to depend on it on codeflow in non-sleepable beacon and CSA code.

2014-06-23mac80211: remove ignore_plink_timer flagBob Copeland
The mesh_plink code is doing some interesting things with the ignore_plink_timer flag. It seems the original intent was to handle this race: cpu 0 cpu 1 ----- ----- start timer handler for state X acquire sta_lock change state from X to Y mod_timer() / del_timer() release sta_lock acquire sta_lock execute state Y timer too soon However, using the mod_timer()/del_timer() return values to detect these cases is broken. As a result, timers get ignored unnecessarily, and stations can get stuck in the peering state machine. Instead, we can detect the case by looking at the timer expiration. In the case of del_timer, just ignore the timers in the following (LISTEN/ESTAB) states since they won't have timers anyway.

2014-06-23mac80211: fix station/driver powersave raceJohannes Berg
It is currently possible to have a race due to the station PS unblock work like this: * station goes to sleep with frames buffered in the driver * driver blocks wakeup * station wakes up again * driver flushes/returns frames, and unblocks, which schedules the unblock work * unblock work starts to run, and checks that the station is awake (i.e. that the WLAN_STA_PS_STA flag isn't set) * we process a received frame with PM=1, setting the flag again * ieee80211_sta_ps_deliver_wakeup() runs, delivering all frames to the driver, and then clearing the WLAN_STA_PS_DRIVER and WLAN_STA_PS_STA flags In this scenario, mac80211 will think that the station is awake, while it really is asleep, and any TX'ed frames should be filtered by the device (it will know that the station is sleeping) but then passed to mac80211 again, which will not buffer it either as it thinks the station is awake, and eventually the packets will be dropped. Fix this by moving the clearing of the flags to exactly where we learn about the situation. This creates a problem of reordering, so introduce another flag indicating that delivery is being done, this new flag also queues frames and is cleared only while the spinlock is held (which the queuing code also holds) so that any concurrent delivery/TX is handled correctly.
