2012-10-31mac80211: do not call ieee80211_configure_filter if no interfaces are upFelix Fietkau

2012-10-30mac80211: use a counter for remain-on-channel cookieJohannes Berg
Instead of using the pointer which can be re-used fairly quickly due to allocator patterns and then makes debugging difficult, maintain a counter and use its value. Since it's a 64-bit value it can't really wrap, but catch that case anyway since it most likely points to a bug somewhere. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2012-10-30mac80211: combine status/drop reportingJohannes Berg
The TX status reporting is done for both the nl80211 report as well as the socket option. The socket option is also reported when an skb is dropped to guarantee that the copy in the IDR tree is freed and status is reported to userspace. However, when a frame is dropped, no nl80211 status is reported. This can cause userspace to stop making progress while waiting for a status notification. Combine the nl80211 and socket option status reporting into a new function and call it in both places -- when the status comes in from the driver and when the skb is dropped. While at it, also simplify the code in the nl80211 portion a bit. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2012-10-30mac80211: handle TX power per virtual interfaceJohannes Berg
Even before channel contexts/multi-channel, having a single global TX power limit was already problematic, in particular if two managed interfaces connected to two APs with different power constraints. The channel context introduction completely broke this though and in fact I had disabled TX power configuration there for drivers using channel contexts. Change everything to track TX power per interface so that different user settings and different channel maxima are treated correctly. Also continue tracking the global TX power though for compatibility with applications that attempt to configure the wiphy's TX power globally. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2012-10-30cfg80211: allow per interface TX power settingJohannes Berg
The TX power setting is currently per wiphy (hardware device) but with multi-channel capabilities that doesn't make much sense any more. Allow drivers (and mac80211) to advertise support for per-interface TX power configuration. When the TX power is configured for the wiphy, the wdev will be NULL and the driver can still handle that, but when a wdev is given the TX power can be set only for that wdev now.

2012-10-26mac80211: make sure data is accessible in EAPOL checkJohannes Berg
The code to allow EAPOL frames even when the station isn't yet marked associated needs to check that the incoming frame is long enough and due to paged RX it also can't assume skb->data contains the right data, it must use skb_copy_bits(). Fix this to avoid using data that doesn't really exist. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2012-10-26mac80211: verify that skb data is presentJohannes Berg
A number of places in the mesh code don't check that the frame data is present and in the skb header when trying to access. Add those checks and the necessary pskb_may_pull() calls. This prevents accessing data that doesn't actually exist. To do this, export ieee80211_get_mesh_hdrlen() to be able to use it in mac80211.

2012-10-26mac80211: check management frame header lengthJohannes Berg
Due to pskb_may_pull() checking the skb length, all non-management frames are checked on input whether their 802.11 header is fully present. Also add that check for management frames and remove a check that is now duplicate. This prevents accessing skb data beyond the frame end.

2012-10-26mac80211: fix SSID copy on IBSS JOINAntonio Quartulli
The 'ssid' field of the cfg80211_ibss_params is a u8 pointer and its length is likely to be less than IEEE80211_MAX_SSID_LEN most of the time. This patch fixes the ssid copy in ieee80211_ibss_join() by using the SSID length to prevent it from reading beyond the string.

2012-10-26mac80211: add explicit AP/GO driver operationsJohannes Berg

2012-10-19mac80211: make client powersave independent of interface typeMarco Porsch
This patch prepares mac80211 for a later implementation of mesh or ad-hoc powersave clients. The structures related to powersave (buffer, TIM map, counters) are moved from the AP-specific interface structure to a generic structure that can be embedded into any interface type. The functions related to powersave are prepared to allow easy extension with different interface types. For example with: + } else if (sta->sdata->vif.type == NL80211_IFTYPE_MESH_POINT) { + ps = &sdata->u.mesh.ps; Some references to the AP's beacon structure are removed where they were obviously not used. The patch compiles without warning and has been briefly tested as AP interface with one client in PS mode.

2012-10-18nl/cfg80211: force scan using an AP vif if requestedAntonio Quartulli
If the user wants to scan using a vif configured as AP, cfg80211 must give him a chance to do it, even if this will disrupt the stations performance due to off-channel scanning. To do so, this patch adds a 'force' flag to the SCAN_TRIGGER command which tells cfg80211 to perform the scanning operation even if the vif is an AP and the beaconing has already started.

2012-10-18mac80211: Notify new IBSS network creationSujith Manoharan
Initialization of beacon transmission in IBSS mode depends on whether a new BSS is being created or joined.

2012-10-18wireless: use OR operation to set wiphy featuresJohannes Berg
The next patch will introduce a flag that is set by default in cfg80211 so drivers and mac80211 need to use |= to set features they have so that they don't clear the already-set feature. We could set the flag in wiphy_register() instead of wiphy_new() to avoid this patch, but then the drivers couldn't *unset* flags they don't want to use even though the implementation is generic.

Some changes to fix issues with HT40 APs in Korea and follow-up changes to allow using HT40 even if the local regulatory database disallows it caused issues with iwlwifi (and could cause issues with other devices); iwlwifi firmware would assert if you tried to connect to an AP that has an invalid configuration (e.g. using HT40- on channel 140.)

2012-10-17mac80211: track needed RX chains for channel contextsJohannes Berg
On each channel that the device is operating on, it may need to listen using one or more chains depending on the SMPS settings of the interfaces using it. The previous channel context changes completely removed this ability (before, it was available as the SMPS mode). Add per-context tracking of the required static and dynamic RX chains and notify the driver on changes. To achieve this, track the chains and SMPS mode used on each virtual interface and update the channel context whenever this changes. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2012-10-17mac80211: use channel contextsJohannes Berg
Instead of operating on a single channel only, use the new channel context infrastructure in all mac80211 code. This enables drivers that want to use the new channel context infrastructure to use multiple channels, while nothing should change for all the other drivers that don't support it. Right now this disables both TX power settings and spatial multiplexing powersave. Both need to be re-enabled on a channel context basis. Additionally, when channel contexts are used drop the connection when channel switch is received rather than trying to handle it. This will have to be improved later.
