2016-10-27cfg80211: Rename SAE_DATA to more generic AUTH_DATAJouni Malinen
This adds defines and nl80211 extensions to allow FILS Authentication to be implemented similarly to SAE. FILS does not need the special rules for the Authentication transaction number and Status code fields, but it does need to add non-IE fields. The previously used NL80211_ATTR_SAE_DATA can be reused for this to avoid having to duplicate that implementation. Rename that attribute to more generic NL80211_ATTR_AUTH_DATA (with backwards compatibility define for NL80211_SAE_DATA). Also document the special rules related to the Authentication transaction number and Status code fiels.

2016-10-27nl80211: move unsplit command advertising to a separate functionJohannes Berg
When we split the wiphy dump because it got too large, I added a comment and asked that all new command advertising be done only for userspace clients capable of receiving split data, in order to not break older ones (which can't use the new commands anyway) This mostly worked, and we haven't added many new commands, but I occasionally get patches that modify the wrong place. Make this easier to detect and understand by splitting out the old commands to a separate function that makes it more clear it should never be modified again.

2016-10-27cfg80211: validate beacon int as part of iface combinationsJohannes Berg
Remove the pointless checking against interface combinations in the initial basic beacon interval validation, that currently isn't taking into account radar detection or channels properly. Instead, just validate the basic range there, and then delay real checking to the interface combination validation that drivers must do. This means that drivers wanting to use the beacon_int_min_gcd will now have to pass the new_beacon_int when validating the AP/mesh start. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2016-10-27cfg80211: disallow beacon_int_min_gcd with IBSSJohannes Berg
This can't really be supported right now, because the IBSS interface may change its beacon interval at any time due to joining another network; thus, there's already "support" for different beacon intervals here, implicitly. Until we figure out how we should handle this case (continue to allow it to arbitrarily join? Join only if compatible?) disallow advertising that different beacon intervals are supported if IBSS is allowed. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2016-10-27cfg80211: mesh: track (and thus validate) beacon intervalJohannes Berg
This is needed for beacon interval validation; if we don't store it, then new interfaces added won't validate that the beacon interval is the same as existing ones. Fix this. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2016-10-27cfg80211: fix beacon interval in interface combination iterationJohannes Berg
We shouldn't abort the iteration with an error when one of the potential combinations can't accomodate the beacon interval request, we should just skip that particular combination. Fix the code to do so. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2016-10-27cfg80211: add generic helper to check interface is runningArend Van Spriel
Add a helper using wdev to check if interface is running. This deals with both non-netdev and netdev interfaces. In struct wireless_dev replace 'p2p_started' and 'nan_started' by 'is_running' as those are mutually exclusive anyway, and unify all the code to use wdev_running().

2016-10-27wireless: deprecate WDS and disable by defaultJohannes Berg
The old WDS 4-addr frame support is very limited, e.g. * no encryption is possible on such links * it cannot support rate/HT/VHT negotiation * management APIs are very restricted These make the WDS legacy mode useless in practice. All of these are resolved by the 4-addr AP/client support, so there's also no reason to improve WDS in the future. Therefore, add a Kconfig option to disable legacy WDS. This gives people an "emergency valve" while they migrate to the better-supported 4-addr AP/client option; we plan to remove it (and the associated cfg80211/mac80211 code, which is the ultimate goal) in the future.

2016-10-13cfg80211: support virtual interfaces with different beacon intervalsPurushottam Kushwaha
This commit provides a mechanism for the host drivers to advertise the support for different beacon intervals among the respective interface combinations in a group, through NL80211_IFACE_COMB_BI_MIN_GCD (u32). This value will be compared against GCD of all beaconing interfaces of matching combinations. If the driver doesn't advertise this value, the old behaviour where all beacon intervals must be identical is retained. If it is specified, then any beacon interval for an interface in the interface combination as well as the GCD of all active beacon intervals in the combination must be greater or equal to this value.

2016-09-28cfg80211: wext: really don't store non-WEP keysJohannes Berg
Jouni reported that during (repeated) wext_pmf test runs (from the wpa_supplicant hwsim test suite) the kernel crashes. The reason is that after the key is set, the wext code still unnecessarily stores it into the key cache. Despite smatch pointing out an overflow, I failed to identify the possibility for this in the code and missed it during development of the earlier patch series. In order to fix this, simply check that we never store anything but WEP keys into the cache, adding a comment as to why that's enough. Also, since the cache is still allocated early even if it won't be used in many cases, add a comment explaining why - otherwise we'd have to roll back key settings to the driver in case of allocation failures, which is far more difficult.

2016-09-15cfg80211: allow connect keys only with default (TX) keyJohannes Berg
There's no point in allowing connect keys when one of them isn't also configured as the TX key, it would just confuse drivers and probably cause them to pick something for TX.
