2013-06-05mac80211: Use suitable semantics for beacon availability indicationAlexander Bondar
Currently beacon availability upon association is marked by have_beacon flag of assoc_data structure that becomes unavailable when association completes. However beacon availability indication is required also after association to inform a driver. Currently dtim_period parameter is used for this purpose. Move have_beacon flag to another structure, persistant throughout a interface's life cycle. Use suitable sematics for beacon availability indication.

2013-06-05mac80211: fix powersave bug and clean up ieee80211_rx_bss_infoAlexander Bondar
ieee80211_rx_bss_info() deals with dtim_period setting and PS update when associated. Move all these to another locations cleaning this function. Also, the current implementation is buggy because when it calls ieee80211_recalc_ps() bss_conf->dtim_period is notset properly yet and thus nothing will happen.

2013-06-04cfg80211: make wiphy index start at 0 againJohannes Berg
The change to use atomic_inc_return() for assigning the wiphy index made the first wiphy index 1 instead of 0. This is fine, but we all habitually type "phy0" when we're testing, so make it go back to 0 instead of 1 by subtracting 1 from the index. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2013-06-04cfg80211: fix potential deadlock regressionJohannes Berg
My big locking cleanups caused a problem by registering the rfkill instance with the RTNL held, while the callback also acquires the RTNL. This potentially causes a deadlock since the two locks used (rfkill mutex and RTNL) can be acquired in two different orders. Fix this by (un)registering rfkill without holding the RTNL. This needs to be done after the device struct is registered, but that can also be done w/o holding the RTNL. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2013-06-04cfg80211: separate internal SME implementationJohannes Berg
The current internal SME implementation in cfg80211 is very mixed up with the MLME handling, which has been causing issues for a long time. There are three things that the implementation has to provide: * a basic SME implementation for nl80211's connect() call (for drivers implementing auth/assoc, which is really just mac80211) and wireless extensions * MLME events for the userspace SME * SME events (connected, disconnected etc.) for all different SME implementation possibilities (driver, cfg80211 and userspace) To achieve these goals it isn't necessary to track the software SME's connection status outside of it's state (which is the part that caused many issues.) Instead, track it only in the SME data (wdev->conn) and in the general case only track whether the wdev is connected or not (via wdev->current_bss.) Also separate the internal implementation to not have callbacks from the SME events, but rather call it from the API functions that the driver (or rather mac80211) calls. This separates the code better. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2013-06-04cfg80211/mac80211: clean up cfg80211 SME APIsJohannes Berg
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.

2013-05-29mac80211: always send multicast on CAB queueJohannes Berg
If the driver advertised support for a CAB queue, then we should put all multicast frames there, otherwise sending them can be racy with clients going to sleep while we TX a frame. To avoid this, always TX multicast frames on the multicast queue. It seems like even drivers not using the queue framework might want to do this which would mean also moving the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_SEND_AFTER_DTIM flag assignment, but it also seems that drivers behave differently here so that just moving it wouldn't be a good idea. It'd be better to modify those drivers to use the queue framework. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2013-05-24cfg80211: simplify and correct P2P-Device scan checkJohannes Berg
If the driver for some reason successfully finishes scanning while in p2p_stop_device(), cfg80211 will still set it to aborted. Simplify this code using the new 'notified' value and only mark it aborted in case the driver didn't notify cfg80211 at all (in which case we also leak the request to not crash, this is a driver bug.)

2013-05-24cfg80211/mac80211: use cfg80211 wdev mutex in mac80211Johannes Berg
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.)

2013-05-24cfg80211: vastly simplify lockingJohannes Berg
Virtually all code paths in cfg80211 already (need to) hold the RTNL. As such, there's little point in having another four mutexes for various parts of the code, they just cause lock ordering issues (and much of the time, the RTNL and a few of the others need thus be held.) Simplify all this by getting rid of the extra four mutexes and just use the RTNL throughout. Only a few code changes were needed to do this and we can get rid of a work struct for bonus points.

2013-05-24cfg80211: Allow TDLS peer AID to be configured for VHTJouni Malinen
VHT uses peer AID in the PARTIAL_AID field in TDLS frames. The current design for TDLS is to first add a dummy STA entry before completing TDLS Setup and then update information on this STA entry based on what was received from the peer during the setup exchange. In theory, this could use NL80211_ATTR_STA_AID to set the peer AID just like this is used in AP mode to set the AID of an association station. However, existing cfg80211 validation rules prevent this attribute from being used with set_station operation. To avoid interoperability issues between different kernel and user space version combinations, introduce a new nl80211 attribute for the purpose of setting TDLS peer AID. This attribute can be used in both the new_station and set_station operations. It is not supposed to be allowed to change the AID value during the lifetime of the STA entry, but that validation is left for drivers to do in the change_station callback.

2013-05-23mac80211: close AP_VLAN interfaces before unregistering allJohannes Berg
Since Eric's commit efe117ab8 ("Speedup ieee80211_remove_interfaces") there's a bug in mac80211 when it unregisters with AP_VLAN interfaces up. If the AP_VLAN interface was registered after the AP it belongs to (which is the typical case) and then we get into this code path, unregister_netdevice_many() will crash because it isn't prepared to deal with interfaces being closed in the middle of it. Exactly this happens though, because we iterate the list, find the AP master this AP_VLAN belongs to and dev_close() the dependent VLANs. After this, unregister_netdevice_many() won't pick up the fact that the AP_VLAN is already down and will do it again, causing a crash.

2013-05-23mac80211: assign AP_VLAN hw queues correctlyJohannes Berg
A lot of code in mac80211 assumes that the hw queues are set up correctly for all interfaces (except for monitor) but this isn't true for AP_VLAN interfaces. Fix this by copying the AP master configuration when an AP VLAN is brought up, after this the AP interface can't change its configuration any more and needs to be brought down to change it, which also forces AP_VLAN interfaces down, so just copying in open() is sufficient.

2013-05-23mac80211: fix queue handling crashJohannes Berg
The code I added in "mac80211: don't start new netdev queues if driver stopped" crashes for monitor and AP VLAN interfaces because while they have a netdev, they don't have queues set up by the driver. To fix the crash, exclude these from queue accounting here and just start their netdev queues unconditionally. For monitor, this is the best we can do, as we can redirect frames there to any other interface and don't know which one that will since it can be different for each frame. For AP VLAN interfaces, we can do better later and actually properly track the queue status. Not doing this is really a separate bug though.
