2008-07-14mac80211: fix TX sequence numbersJohannes Berg
This patch makes mac80211 assign proper sequence numbers to QoS-data frames. It also removes the old sequence number code because we noticed that only the driver or hardware can assign sequence numbers to non-QoS-data and especially management frames in a race-free manner because beacons aren't passed through mac80211's TX path. This patch also adds temporary code to the rt2x00 drivers to not break them completely, that code will have to be reworked for proper sequence numbers on beacons. It also moves sequence number assignment down in the TX path so no sequence numbers are assigned to frames that are dropped.

2008-07-14mac80211: revamp beacon configurationJohannes Berg
This patch changes mac80211's beacon configuration handling to never pass skbs to the driver directly but rather always require the driver to use ieee80211_beacon_get(). Additionally, it introduces "change flags" on the config_interface() call to enable drivers to figure out what is changing. Finally, it removes the beacon_update() driver callback in favour of having IBSS beacon delivered by ieee80211_beacon_get() as well.

2008-07-14mac80211: make master netdev handling saneJohannes Berg
Currently, almost every interface type has a 'bss' pointer pointing to BSS information. This BSS information, however, is for a _local_ BSS, not for the BSS we joined, so having it on a STA mode interface makes little sense, but now they have it pointing to the master device, which is an AP mode virtual interface. However, except for some bitrate control data, this pointer is only used in AP/VLAN modes (for power saving stations.) Overall, it is not necessary to even have the master netdev be a valid virtual interface, and it doesn't have to be on the list of interfaces either. This patch changes the master netdev to be special, it now - no longer is on the list of virtual interfaces, which lets me remove a lot of tests for that - no longer has sub_if_data attached, since that isn't used Additionally, this patch changes some vlan/ap mode handling that is related to these 'bss' pointers described above (but in the VLAN case they actually make sense because there they point to the AP they belong to); it also adds some debugging code to IEEE80211_DEV_TO_SUB_IF to validate it is not called on the master netdev any more.

2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Allow security for outgoing L2CAP connectionsMarcel Holtmann
When requested the L2CAP layer will now enforce authentication and encryption on outgoing connections. The usefulness of this feature is kinda limited since it will not allow proper connection ownership tracking until the authentication procedure has been finished. This is a limitation of Bluetooth 2.0 and before and can only be fixed by using Simple Pairing. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Add option to disable eSCO connection creationMarcel Holtmann
It has been reported that some eSCO capable headsets are not able to connect properly. The real reason for this is unclear at the moment. So for easier testing add a module parameter to disable eSCO connection creation. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Signal user-space for HIDP and BNEP socket errorsMarcel Holtmann
When using the HIDP or BNEP kernel support, the user-space needs to know if the connection has been terminated for some reasons. Wake up the application if that happens. Otherwise kernel and user-space are no longer on the same page and weird behaviors can happen. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Move pending packets from RFCOMM socket to TTYMarcel Holtmann
When an incoming RFCOMM socket connection gets converted into a TTY, it can happen that packets are lost. This mainly happens with the Handsfree profile where the remote side starts sending data right away. The problem is that these packets are in the socket receive queue. So when creating the TTY make sure to copy all pending packets from the socket receive queue to a private queue inside the TTY. To make this actually work, the flow control on the newly created TTY will be disabled and only enabled again when the TTY is opened by an application. And right before that, the pending packets will be put into the TTY flip buffer. Signed-off-by: Denis Kenzior <denis.kenzior@trolltech.com> Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Store remote modem status for RFCOMM TTYMarcel Holtmann
When switching a RFCOMM socket to a TTY, the remote modem status might be needed later. Currently it is lost since the original configuration is done via the socket interface. So store the modem status and reply it when the socket has been converted to a TTY. Signed-off-by: Denis Kenzior <denis.kenzior@trolltech.com> Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Use non-canonical TTY by default for RFCOMMMarcel Holtmann

2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Update Bluetooth core version numberMarcel Holtmann

2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Use a more unique bus name for connectionsMarcel Holtmann
When attaching Bluetooth low-level connections to the bus, the bus name is constructed from the remote address since at that time the connection handle is not assigned yet. This has worked so far, but also caused a lot of troubles. It is better to postpone the creation of the sysfs entry to the time when the connection actually has been established and then use its connection handle as unique identifier. This also fixes the case where two different adapters try to connect to the same remote device. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Add support for TIOCOUTQ and TIOCINQ ioctlsMarcel Holtmann

2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Add timestamp support to L2CAP, RFCOMM and SCOMarcel Holtmann

2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Export details about authentication requirementsMarcel Holtmann
With the Simple Pairing support, the authentication requirements are an explicit setting during the bonding process. Track and enforce the requirements and allow higher layers like L2CAP and RFCOMM to increase them if needed. This patch introduces a new IOCTL that allows to query the current authentication requirements. It is also possible to detect Simple Pairing support in the kernel this way. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Initiate authentication during connection establishmentMarcel Holtmann
With Bluetooth 2.1 and Simple Pairing the requirement is that any new connection needs to be authenticated and that encryption has been switched on before allowing L2CAP to use it. So make sure that all the requirements are fulfilled and otherwise drop the connection with a minimal disconnect timeout of 10 milliseconds. This change only affects Bluetooth 2.1 devices and Simple Pairing needs to be enabled locally and in the remote host stack. The previous changes made sure that these information are discovered before any kind of authentication and encryption is triggered. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Use ACL config stage to retrieve remote featuresMarcel Holtmann
The Bluetooth technology introduces new features on a regular basis and for some of them it is important that the hardware on both sides support them. For features like Simple Pairing it is important that the host stacks on both sides have switched this feature on. To make valid decisions, a config stage during ACL link establishment has been introduced that retrieves remote features and if needed also the remote extended features (known as remote host features) before signalling this link as connected. This change introduces full reference counting of incoming and outgoing ACL links and the Bluetooth core will disconnect both if no owner of it is present. To better handle interoperability during the pairing phase the disconnect timeout for incoming connections has been increased to 10 seconds. This is five times more than for outgoing connections.

2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Export remote Simple Pairing mode via sysfsMarcel Holtmann
Since the remote Simple Pairing mode is stored together with the inquiry cache, it makes sense to show it together with the other information. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Track status of remote Simple Pairing modeMarcel Holtmann
The Simple Pairing process can only be used if both sides have the support enabled in the host stack. The current Bluetooth specification has three ways to detect this support. If an Extended Inquiry Result has been sent during inquiry then it is safe to assume that Simple Pairing is enabled. It is not allowed to enable Extended Inquiry without Simple Pairing. During the remote name request phase a notification with the remote host supported features will be sent to indicate Simple Pairing support. Also the second page of the remote extended features can indicate support for Simple Pairing. For all three cases the value of remote Simple Pairing mode is stored in the inquiry cache for later use. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Track status of Simple Pairing modeMarcel Holtmann
The Simple Pairing feature is optional and needs to be enabled by the host stack first. The Linux kernel relies on the Bluetooth daemon to either enable or disable it, but at any time it needs to know the current state of the Simple Pairing mode. So track any changes made by external entities and store the current mode in the HCI device structure. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Disable disconnect timer during Simple PairingMarcel Holtmann
During the Simple Pairing process the HCI disconnect timer must be disabled. The way to do this is by holding a reference count of the HCI connection. The Simple Pairing process on both sides starts with an IO Capabilities Request and ends with Simple Pairing Complete. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Update class of device value whenever possibleMarcel Holtmann
The class of device value can only be retrieved via inquiry or during an incoming connection request. Outgoing connections can't ask for the class of device. To compensate for this the value is stored and copied via the inquiry cache, but currently only updated via inquiry. This update should also happen during an incoming connection request. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>

2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Make use of the default link policy settingsMarcel Holtmann
The Bluetooth specification supports the default link policy settings on a per host controller basis. For every new connection the link manager would then use these settings. It is better to use this instead of bothering the controller on every connection setup to overwrite the default settings. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Track connection packet type changesMarcel Holtmann
The connection packet type can be changed after the connection has been established and thus needs to be properly tracked to ensure that the host stack has always correct and valid information about it. On incoming connections the Bluetooth core switches the supported packet types to the configured list for this controller. However the usefulness of this feature has been questioned a lot. The general consent is that every Bluetooth host stack should enable as many packet types as the hardware actually supports and leave the decision to the link manager software running on the Bluetooth chip. When running on Bluetooth 2.0 or later hardware, don't change the packet type for incoming connections anymore. This hardware likely supports Enhanced Data Rate and thus leave it completely up to the link manager to pick the best packet type. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Support the case when headset falls back to SCO linkMarcel Holtmann
When trying to establish an eSCO link between two devices then it can happen that the remote device falls back to a SCO link. Currently this case is not handled correctly and the message dispatching will break since it is looking for eSCO packets. So in case the configured link falls back to SCO overwrite the link type with the correct value. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Update authentication status after successful encryptionMarcel Holtmann
The authentication status is not communicated to both parties. This is actually a flaw in the Bluetooth specification. Only the requesting side really knows if the authentication was successful or not. This piece of information is however needed on the other side to know if it has to trigger the authentication procedure or not. Worst case is that both sides will request authentication at different times, but this should be avoided since it costs extra time when setting up a new connection. For Bluetooth encryption it is required to authenticate the link first and the encryption status is communicated to both sides. So when a link is switched to encryption it is possible to update the authentication status since it implies an authenticated link. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Disconnect when encryption gets disabledMarcel Holtmann
The Bluetooth specification allows to enable or disable the encryption of an ACL link at any time by either the peer or the remote device. If a L2CAP or RFCOMM connection requested an encrypted link, they will now disconnect that link if the encryption gets disabled. Higher protocols that don't care about encryption (like SDP) are not affected. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Enforce security for outgoing RFCOMM connectionsMarcel Holtmann
Recent tests with various Bluetooth headsets have shown that some of them don't enforce authentication and encryption when connecting. All of them leave it up to the host stack to enforce it. Non of them should allow unencrypted connections, but that is how it is. So in case the link mode settings require authentication and/or encryption it will now also be enforced on outgoing RFCOMM connections. Previously this was only done for incoming connections. This support has a small drawback from a protocol level point of view since the host stack can't really tell with 100% certainty if a remote side is already authenticated or not. So if both sides are configured to enforce authentication it will be requested twice. Most Bluetooth chips are caching this information and thus no extra authentication procedure has to be triggered over-the-air, but it can happen. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2008-07-14[Bluetooth] Change retrieval of L2CAP features maskMarcel Holtmann
Getting the remote L2CAP features mask is really important, but doing this as less intrusive as possible is tricky. To play nice with older systems and Bluetooth qualification testing, the features mask is now only retrieved in two specific cases and only once per lifetime of an ACL link. When trying to establish a L2CAP connection and the remote features mask is unknown, the L2CAP information request is sent when the ACL link goes into connected state. This applies only to outgoing connections and also only for the connection oriented channels. The second case is when a connection request has been received. In this case a connection response with the result pending and the information request will be send. After receiving an information response or if the timeout gets triggered, the normal connection setup process with security setup will be initiated.

2008-07-13dccp ccid-3: Length of loss intervalsGerrit Renker
This corrects an error in the computation of the open loss interval I_0: * the interval length is (highest_seqno - start_seqno) + 1 * and not (highest_seqno - start_seqno). This condition was not fully clear in RFC 3448, but reflects the current revision state of rfc3448bis and is also consistent with RFC 4340, 6.1.1.

2008-07-13dccp ccid-3: Fix a loss detection bugGerrit Renker
This fixes a bug in the logic of the TFRC loss detection: * new_loss_indicated() should not be called while a loss is pending; * but the code allows this; * thus, for two subsequent gaps in the sequence space, when loss_count has not yet reached NDUPACK=3, the loss_count is falsely reduced to 1. To avoid further and similar problems, all loss handling and loss detection is now done inside tfrc_rx_hist_handle_loss(), using an appropriate routine to track new losses. Further changes: ---------------- * added a reminder that no RX history operations should be performed when rx_handle_loss() has identified a (new) loss, since the function takes care of packet reordering during loss detection; * made tfrc_rx_hist_loss_pending() bool (thanks to an earlier suggestion by Arnaldo); * removed unused functions.

2008-07-13dccp ccid-3: Fix error in loss detectionGerrit Renker
The TFRC loss detection code used the wrong loss condition (RFC 4340, 7.7.1): * the difference between sequence numbers s1 and s2 instead of * the number of packets missing between s1 and s2 (one less than the distance). Since this condition appears in many places of the code, it has been put into a separate function, dccp_loss_free(). Further changes: ---------------- * tidied up incorrect typing (it was using `int' for u64/s64 types); * optimised conditional statements for common case of non-reordered packets; * rewrote comments/documentation to match the changes.
