2010-04-07mac80211: fix paged RX cryptoJohannes Berg
WEP crypto was broken, but upon finding the problem it is evident that other things were broken by the paged RX patch as well. To fix it, for now move the linearising in front. This means that we linearise all frames, which is not at all what we want, but at least it fixes the problem for now.

2010-04-07mac80211: clean up/fix aggregation codeJohannes Berg
The aggregation code has a number of quirks, like inventing an unneeded WLAN_BACK_TIMER value and leaking memory under certain circumstances during station destruction. Fix these issues by using the regular aggregation session teardown code and blocking new aggregation sessions, all before the station is really destructed. As a side effect, this gets rid of the long code block to destroy aggregation safely. Additionally, rename tid_state_rx which can only have the values IDLE and OPERATIONAL to tid_active_rx to make it easier to understand that there is no bitwise stuff going on on the RX side -- the TX side remains because it needs to keep track of the driver and peer states.

2010-04-07mac80211: fix station destruction problemJohannes Berg
When a station w/o a key is destroyed, or when a driver submits work for a station and thereby references it again, it seems like potentially we could reference the station structure while it is being destroyed. Wait for an RCU grace period to elapse before finishing destroying the station after we have removed the station from the driver and from the hash table etc., even in the case where no key is associated with the station. Also, there's no point in deleting the plink timer here since it'll be properly deleted just a bit later. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

2010-04-07cfg80211: Add local-state-change-only auth/deauth/disassocJouni Malinen
cfg80211 is quite strict on allowing authentication and association commands only in certain states. In order to meet these requirements, user space applications may need to clear authentication or association state in some cases. Currently, this can be done with deauth/disassoc command, but that ends up sending out Deauthentication or Disassociation frame unnecessarily. Add a new nl80211 attribute to allow this sending of the frame be skipped, but with all other deauth/disassoc operations being completed. Similar state change is also needed for IEEE 802.11r FT protocol in the FT-over-DS case which does not use Authentication frame exchange in a transition to another BSS. For this to work with cfg80211, an authentication entry needs to be created for the target BSS without sending out an Authentication frame. The nl80211 authentication command can be used for this purpose, too, with the new attribute to indicate that the command is only for changing local state. This enables wpa_supplicant to complete FT-over-DS transition successfully. Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2010-04-07flow: delayed deletion of flow cache entriesTimo Teräs
Speed up lookups by freeing flow cache entries later. After virtualizing flow cache entry operations, the flow cache may now end up calling policy or bundle destructor which can be slowish. As gc_list is more effective with double linked list, the flow cache is converted to use common hlist and list macroes where appropriate.

2010-04-07xfrm: cache bundles instead of policies for outgoing flowsTimo Teräs
__xfrm_lookup() is called for each packet transmitted out of system. The xfrm_find_bundle() does a linear search which can kill system performance depending on how many bundles are required per policy. This modifies __xfrm_lookup() to store bundles directly in the flow cache. If we did not get a hit, we just create a new bundle instead of doing slow search. This means that we can now get multiple xfrm_dst's for same flow (on per-cpu basis). Signed-off-by: Timo Teras <timo.teras@iki.fi> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2010-04-07flow: virtualize flow cache entry methodsTimo Teräs
This allows to validate the cached object before returning it. It also allows to destruct object properly, if the last reference was held in flow cache. This is also a prepartion for caching bundles in the flow cache. In return for virtualizing the methods, we save on: - not having to regenerate the whole flow cache on policy removal: each flow matching a killed policy gets refreshed as the getter function notices it smartly. - we do not have to call flow_cache_flush from policy gc, since the flow cache now properly deletes the object if it had any references Signed-off-by: Timo Teras <timo.teras@iki.fi> Acked-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-04-03l2tp: Add support for static unmanaged L2TPv3 tunnelsJames Chapman
This patch adds support for static (unmanaged) L2TPv3 tunnels, where the tunnel socket is created by the kernel rather than being created by userspace. This means L2TP tunnels and sessions can be created manually, without needing an L2TP control protocol implemented in userspace. This might be useful where the user wants a simple ethernet over IP tunnel. A patch to iproute2 adds a new command set under "ip l2tp" to make use of this feature. This will be submitted separately.

2010-04-03l2tp: Add debugfs files for dumping l2tp debug infoJames Chapman
The existing pppol2tp driver exports debug info to /proc/net/pppol2tp. Rather than adding info to that file for the new functionality added in this patch series, we add new files in debugfs, leaving the old /proc file for backwards compatibility (L2TPv2 only). Currently only one file is provided: l2tp/tunnels, which lists internal debug info for all l2tp tunnels and sessions. More files may be added later. The info is for debug and problem analysis only - userspace apps should use netlink to obtain status about l2tp tunnels and sessions. Although debugfs does not support net namespaces, the tunnels and sessions dumped in l2tp/tunnels are only those in the net namespace of the process reading the file.

When the pseudowire is established, regular Linux networking utilities may be used to configure the interface, i.e. give it IP address info or add it to a bridge.

2010-04-03l2tp: Add netlink control API for L2TPJames Chapman
In L2TPv3, we need to create/delete/modify/query L2TP tunnel and session contexts. The number of parameters is significant. So let's use netlink. Userspace uses this API to control L2TP tunnel/session contexts in the kernel. The previous pppol2tp driver was managed using [gs]etsockopt(). This API is retained for backwards compatibility. Unlike L2TPv2 which carries only PPP frames, L2TPv3 can carry raw ethernet frames or other frame types and these do not always have an associated socket family. Therefore, we need a way to use L2TP sessions that doesn't require a socket type for each supported frame type. Hence netlink is used.

Since L2TP/UDP and L2TP/IP packets differ in layout, the datapath packet handling code needs changes too. Userspace uses an L2TPIP socket instead of a UDP socket when IP encapsulation is required.

Also the sockaddr_pppol2tp structure of the original code is too small to support the increased size of the L2TPv3 tunnel and session id, so a new sockaddr_pppol2tpv3 structure is needed.

This means that if 64-bit support isn't available, even buffers located below 4GB will get copied unnecessarily. -Some drivers set the flag even though they can't actually handle 64-bit DMA, which would mean that on platforms without IOMMU/SWIOTLB they would get a DMA mapping error if the memory they received happened to be located above 4GB. http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/3/3/530 We can use the dma_mask if we need bouncing or not here.
