cfg80211: fix mic_failure tracing

2014-08-07T23:53:51+00:00

commit 8c26d458394be44e135d1c6bd4557e1c4e1a0535 upstream. tsc can be NULL (mac80211 currently always passes NULL), resulting in NULL-dereference. check before copying it. Signed-off-by: Eliad Peller Signed-off-by: Emmanuel Grumbach Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

cfg80211: Pass TDLS peer capability information in tdls_mgmt

2014-02-20T10:55:25+00:00

While framing the TDLS Setup Confirmation frame, the driver needs to know if the TDLS peer is VHT/HT/WMM capable and thus shall construct the VHT/HT operation / WMM parameter elements accordingly. Supplicant determines if the TDLS peer is VHT/HT/WMM capable based on the presence of the respective IEs in the received TDLS Setup Response frame. The host driver should not need to parse the received TDLS Response frame and thus, should be able to rely on the supplicant to indicate the capability of the peer through additional flags while transmitting the TDLS Setup Confirmation frame through tdls_mgmt operations.

cfg80211: fix channel configuration in IBSS join

2014-02-04T20:58:16+00:00

When receiving an IBSS_JOINED event select the BSS object based on the {bssid, channel} couple rather than the bssid only. With the current approach if another cell having the same BSSID (but using a different channel) exists then cfg80211 picks up the wrong BSS object. The result is a mismatching channel configuration between cfg80211 and the driver, that can lead to any sort of problem. The issue can be triggered by having an IBSS sitting on given channel and then asking the driver to create a new cell using the same BSSID but with a different frequency. By passing the channel to cfg80211_get_bss() we can solve this ambiguity and retrieve/create the correct BSS object. All the users of cfg80211_ibss_joined() have been changed accordingly. Moreover WARN when cfg80211_ibss_joined() gets a NULL channel as argument and remove a bogus call of the same function in ath6kl (it does not make sense to call cfg80211_ibss_joined() with a zero BSSID on ibss-leave).

cfg80211: Add support for QoS mapping

2013-12-19T15:29:22+00:00

This allows QoS mapping from external networks to be implemented as defined in IEEE Std 802.11-2012, 10.24.9. APs can use this to advertise DSCP ranges and exceptions for mapping frames to a specific UP over Wi-Fi. The payload of the QoS Map Set element (IEEE Std 802.11-2012, 8.4.2.97) is sent to the driver through the new NL80211_ATTR_QOS_MAP attribute to configure the local behavior either on the AP (based on local configuration) or on a station (based on information received from the AP).

cfg80211: aggregate mgmt_tx parameters into a struct

2013-12-02T10:51:52+00:00

Change cfg80211 and mac80211 to use cfg80211_mgmt_tx_params struct to aggregate parameters for mgmt_tx functions. This makes the functions' signatures less clumsy and allows less painful parameters extension. Signed-off-by: Andrei Otcheretianski [fix all other drivers] Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

cfg80211: add wdev to testmode cmd

2013-08-12T12:11:37+00:00

To allow drivers to implement per-interface testmode operations more easily, pass a wdev pointer if any identification for one was given from userspace. Clean up the code a bit while at it. Signed-off-by: David Spinadel Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

nl80211/cfg80211: add channel switch command

2013-08-01T16:30:28+00:00

To allow channel switch announcements within beacons, add the channel switch command to nl80211/cfg80211. This is implementation is intended for AP and (later) IBSS mode. Signed-off-by: Simon Wunderlich Signed-off-by: Mathias Kretschmer Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

nl80211: add scan width to bss and scan request structs

2013-07-16T06:58:01+00:00

To allow scanning and working with 5 MHz and 10 MHz BSS, extend the inform bss commands and add wrappers to take 5 and 10 MHz bss into account. Signed-off-by: Simon Wunderlich Signed-off-by: Mathias Kretschmer Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

cfg80211/mac80211: clean up cfg80211 SME APIs

2013-06-04T11:03:10+00:00

Do some cleanups in the cfg80211 SME APIs, which are only used by mac80211. Most of these functions get a frame passed, and there isn't really any reason to export multiple functions as cfg80211 can check the frame type instead, do that. Additionally, the API functions have confusing names like cfg80211_send_...() which was meant to indicate that it sends an event to userspace, but gets a bit confusing when there's both TX and RX and they're not all clearly labeled.

cfg80211/mac80211: use cfg80211 wdev mutex in mac80211

2013-05-24T22:02:16+00:00

Using separate locks in cfg80211 and mac80211 has always caused issues, for example having to unlock in places in mac80211 to call cfg80211, which even needed a framework to make cfg80211 calls after some functions returned etc. Additionally, I suspect some issues people have reported with the cfg80211 state getting confused could be due to such issues, when cfg80211 is asking mac80211 to change state but mac80211 is in the process of telling cfg80211 that the state changed (in another way.)
