2013-10-19net: misc: Remove extern from function prototypesJoe Perches
There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern in the kernel sources. Standardize on not using extern for function prototypes. Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern. extern is assumed by the compiler. Its use is as unnecessary as using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.

2013-10-14mac80211: fix crash if bitrate calculation goes wrongJohannes Berg
If a frame's timestamp is calculated, and the bitrate calculation goes wrong and returns zero, the system will attempt to divide by zero and crash.

2013-10-09mac80211: correctly close cancelled scansEmmanuel Grumbach
__ieee80211_scan_completed is called from a worker. This means that the following flow is possible. * driver calls ieee80211_scan_completed * mac80211 cancels the scan (that is already complete) * __ieee80211_scan_completed runs When scan_work will finally run, it will see that the scan hasn't been aborted and might even trigger another scan on another band. This leads to a situation where cfg80211's scan is not done and no further scan can be issued. Fix this by setting a new flag when a HW scan is being cancelled so that no other scan will be triggered.

2013-10-02mac80211: implement STA CSA for drivers using channel contextsArik Nemtsov
Limit the current implementation to a single channel context used by a single vif, thereby avoiding multi-vif/channel complexities. Reuse the main function from AP CSA code, but move a portion out in order to fit the STA scenario. Add a new mac80211 HW flag so we don't break devices that don't support channel switch with channel-contexts. The new behavior will be opt-in.

2013-10-01mac80211: support reporting A-MSDU subframes individuallyMichal Kazior
Some devices may not be able to report A-MSDUs in single buffers. Drivers for such devices were forced to re-assemble A-MSDUs which would then be eventually disassembled by mac80211. This could lead to CPU cache thrashing and poor performance. Since A-MSDU has a single sequence number all subframes share it. This was in conflict with retransmission/duplication recovery (IEEE802.11-2012: 9.3.2.10). Patch introduces a new flag that is meant to be set for all individually reported A-MSDU subframes except the last one. This ensures the last_seq_ctrl is updated after the last subframe is processed. If an A-MSDU is actually a duplicate transmission all reported subframes will be properly discarded.

2013-09-30mac80211: Run deferred scan if last roc_list item is not startedJouni Malinen
mac80211 scan processing could get stuck if roc work for pending, but not started when a scan request was deferred due to such roc item. Normally the deferred scan would be started from ieee80211_start_next_roc(), but ieee80211_sw_roc_work() calls that only if the finished ROC was started. Fix this by calling ieee80211_run_deferred_scan() in the case the last ROC was not actually started. This issue was hit relatively easily in P2P find operations where Listen state (remain-on-channel) and Search state (scan) are repeated in a loop.

2013-09-26mac80211: drop spoofed packets in ad-hoc modeFelix Fietkau
If an Ad-Hoc node receives packets with the Cell ID or its own MAC address as source address, it hits a WARN_ON in sta_info_insert_check() With many packets, this can massively spam the logs. One way that this can easily happen is through having Cisco APs in the area with rouge AP detection and countermeasures enabled. Such Cisco APs will regularly send fake beacons, disassoc and deauth packets that trigger these warnings. To fix this issue, drop such spoofed packets early in the rx path.

2013-09-26mac80211: add ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces_rtnl()Johannes Berg
If it is needed to disconnect multiple virtual interfaces after (WoWLAN-) suspend, the most obvious approach would be to iterate all interfaces by calling ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces() and then call ieee80211_resume_disconnect() for each one. This is what the iwlmvm driver does. Unfortunately, this causes a locking dependency from mac80211's iflist_mtx to the key_mtx. This is problematic as the former is intentionally never held while calling any driver operation to allow drivers to iterate with their own locks held. The key_mtx is held while installing a key into the driver though, so this new lock dependency means drivers implementing the logic above can no longer hold their own lock while iterating. To fix this, add a new ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces_rtnl() function that iterates while the RTNL is already held. This is true during suspend/resume, so that then the locking dependency isn't introduced. While at it, also refactor the various interface iterators and keep only a single implementation called by the various cases. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2013-08-26mac80211: fix change_interface queue assignmentsJohannes Berg
Jouni reported that with mac80211_hwsim, multicast TX was causing crashes due to invalid vif->cab_queue assignment. It turns out that this is caused by change_interface() getting invoked and not having the vif->type/vif->p2p assigned correctly before calling the queue check (ieee80211_check_queues). Fix this by passing the 'external' interface type to the function and adjusting it accordingly. While at it, also fix the error path in change_interface, it wasn't correctly resetting to the external type but using the internal one instead. Fortunately this affects on hwsim because all other drivers set the vif->type/vif->p2p variables when changing iftype. This shouldn't be needed, but almost all implementations actually do it for their own internal handling. Reported-by: Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2013-08-23mac80211: ignore (E)CSA in probe response framesJohannes Berg
Seth reports that some APs, notably the Netgear WNDAP360, send invalid ECSA IEs in probe response frames with the operating class and channel number both set to zero, even when no channel switch is being done. As a result, any scan while connected to such an AP results in the connection being dropped. Fix this by ignoring any channel switch announcment in probe response frames entirely, since we're connected to the AP we will be receiving a beacon (and maybe even an action frame) if a channel switch is done, which is sufficient.

In order to be able to (securely) keep connections alive after the system was suspended for WoWLAN, we need some additional APIs. We already have API (ieee80211_gtk_rekey_notify) to tell wpa_supplicant about the new replay counter if GTK rekeying was done by the device while the host was asleep, but that's not sufficient. If GTK rekeying wasn't done, we need to tell the host about sequence counters for the GTK (and PTK regardless of rekeying) that was used while asleep, add ieee80211_set_key_rx_seq() for that. If GTK rekeying was done, then we need to be able to disable the old keys (with ieee80211_remove_key()) and allocate the new GTK key(s) in mac80211 (with ieee80211_gtk_rekey_add()). If protocol offload (e.g. ARP) is implemented, then also the TX sequence counter for the PTK must be updated, using the new ieee80211_set_key_tx_seq() function.
