2013-01-03regulatory: use RCU to protect last_requestJohannes Berg
This will allow making freq_reg_info() lock-free. Acked-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <mcgrof@do-not-panic.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2013-01-03regulatory: use RCU to protect global and wiphy regdomainsJohannes Berg
To simplify the locking and not require cfg80211_mutex (which nl80211 uses to access the global regdomain) and also to make it possible for drivers to access their wiphy->regd safely, use RCU to protect these pointers. Acked-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <mcgrof@do-not-panic.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2013-01-03regulatory: pass new regdomain to reset functionJohannes Berg
Instead of assigning after calling the function do it inside the function. This will later avoid a period of time where the pointer is NULL. Acked-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <mcgrof@do-not-panic.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2013-01-03regulatory: remove handling of channel bandwidthJohannes Berg
The channel bandwidth handling isn't really quite right, it assumes that a 40 MHz channel is really two 20 MHz channels, which isn't strictly true. This is the way the regulatory database handling is defined right now though so remove the logic to handle other channel widths. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2013-01-03regulatory: fix reg_is_valid_request handlingJohannes Berg
There's a bug with the world regulatory domain, it can be updated any time which is different from all other regdomains that can only be updated once after a request for them. Fix this by adding a check for "processed" to the reg_is_valid_request() function and clear that when doing a request. While looking at this I also found another locking bug, last_request is protected by the reg_mutex not the cfg80211_mutex so the code in nl80211 is racy. Remove that code as it only tries to prevent an allocation in an error case, which isn't necessary. Then the function can also become static and locking in nl80211 can have a smaller scope. Also change __set_regdom() to do the checks earlier and not different for world/other regdomains. Acked-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <mcgrof@do-not-panic.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2013-01-03regulatory: remove locking from wiphy_apply_custom_regulatoryJohannes Berg
wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory() doesn't have to hold the regulatory mutex as it only modifies the given wiphy with the given regulatory domain, it doesn't access any global regulatory data. Acked-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <mcgrof@do-not-panic.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2013-01-03regulatory: clarify locking rules and assertionsJohannes Berg
Many places that currently check that cfg80211_mutex is held don't actually use any data protected by it. The functions that need to hold the cfg80211_mutex are the ones using the cfg80211_regdomain variable, so add the lock assertion to those and clarify this in the comments. The reason for this is that nl80211 uses the regdom without being able to hold reg_mutex. Acked-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <mcgrof@do-not-panic.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2013-01-03regulatory: simplify freq_reg_info_regdJohannes Berg
The function itself has dual-purpose: it can retrieve from a given regdomain or from the globally installed one. Change it to have a single purpose only: to look up from a given regdomain. Pass the correct regdomain in the freq_reg_info() function instead. This also changes the locking rules for it, no locking is required any more. Acked-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <mcgrof@do-not-panic.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2013-01-03regulatory: remove useless warningJohannes Berg

2013-01-03regulatory: remove redundant isalpha() checkJohannes Berg

2013-01-03cfg80211: remove wiphy_idx_validJohannes Berg
This is pretty much useless since get_wiphy_idx() always returns true since it's always called with a valid wiphy pointer. Acked-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <mcgrof@do-not-panic.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2013-01-03regulatory: remove useless locking on exitJohannes Berg

2013-01-03regulatory: clean up regdom_intersectJohannes Berg

2013-01-03regulatory: don't allocate too much memoryJohannes Berg
There's no need to allocate one reg rule more than will be used, reduce the allocations. The allocation in nl80211 already doesn't allocate too much space. Acked-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <mcgrof@do-not-panic.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2013-01-03regulatory: don't write past array when intersecting rulesJohannes Berg
When intersecting rules, we count first to know how many rules need to be allocated, and then do the intersection into the allocated array. However, the code doing this writes past the end of the array because it attempts to do all intersections. Make it stop when the right number of rules has been reached. Acked-by: Luis R.

2013-01-03mac80211: remove a bit of dead mesh codeJohannes Berg

2013-01-03mac80211: optimise roaming time againJohannes Berg

2013-01-03mac80211: remove final sta_info_flush()Johannes Berg

2013-01-03mac80211: fix dtim_period in hidden SSID AP associationJohannes Berg
When AP's SSID is hidden the BSS can appear several times in cfg80211's BSS list: once with a zero-length SSID that comes from the beacon, and once for each SSID from probe reponses. Since the mac80211 stores its data in ieee80211_bss which is embedded into cfg80211_bss, mac80211's data will be duplicated too. This becomes a problem when a driver needs the dtim_period since this data exists only in the beacon's instance in cfg80211 bss table which isn't the instance that is used when associating. Remove the DTIM period from the BSS table and track it explicitly to avoid this problem.

2013-01-03mac80211: use del_timer_sync for final sta cleanup timer deletionJohannes Berg
This is a very old bug, but there's nothing that prevents the timer from running while the module is being removed when we only do del_timer() instead of del_timer_sync(). The timer should normally not be running at this point, but it's not clearly impossible (or we could just remove this.)

2013-01-03mac80211: fix station destruction in AP/mesh modesJohannes Berg
Unfortunately, commit b22cfcfcae5b, intended to speed up roaming by avoiding the synchronize_rcu() broke AP/mesh modes as it moved some code into that work item that will still call into the driver at a time where it's no longer expected to handle this: after the AP or mesh has been stopped. To fix this problem remove the per-station work struct, maintain a station cleanup list instead and flush this list when stations are flushed. To keep this patch smaller for stable, do this when the stations are flushed (sta_info_flush()). This unfortunately brings back the original roaming delay; I'll fix that again in a separate patch. Also, Ben reported that the original commit could sometimes (with many interfaces) cause long delays when an interface is set down, due to blocking on flush_workqueue(). Since we now maintain the cleanup list, this particular change of the original patch can be reverted.

Do not scan on no-IBSS and disabled channels in IBSS mode. Doing this can trigger Microcode errors on iwlwifi and iwlegacy drivers.
