When there is a need to restart/reconfig hw, tear down all the aggregation queues and let the mac80211 and driver get in-sync to have the opportunity to re-establish the aggregation queues again. Need to wait until driver re-establish all the station information before tear down the aggregation queues, driver(at least iwlwifi driver) will reject the stop aggregation queue request if station is not ready. But also need to make sure the aggregation queues are tear down before waking up the queues, so mac80211 will not sending frames with aggregation bit set.

Many drivers would like to sleep during station addition and removal, and currently have a high complexity there from not being able to. This introduces two new callbacks sta_add() and sta_remove() that drivers can implement instead of using sta_notify() and that can sleep, and the new sta_add() callback is also allowed to fail. The reason we didn't do this previously is that the IBSS code wants to insert stations from the RX path, which is a tasklet, so cannot sleep. This patch will keep the station allocation in that path, but moves adding the station to the driver out of line. Since the addition can now fail, we can have IBSS peer structs the driver rejected -- in that case we still talk to the station but never tell the driver about it in the control.sta pointer. If there will ever be a driver that has a low limit on the number of stations and that cannot talk to any stations that are not known to it, we need to do come up with a new strategy of handling larger IBSSs, maybe quicker expiry or rejecting peers.

Reinette found the reason for the warnings that happened occasionally when a hw-offloaded scan finished; her description of the problem: mac80211 will defer the handling of scan requests if it is busy with management work at the time. The scan requests are deferred and run after the work has completed. When this occurs there are currently two problems. * The scan request for hardware scan is not fully populated with the band and channels to scan not initialized. * When the scan is queued the state is not correctly updated to reflect that a scan is in progress. The problem here is that when the driver completes the scan and calls ieee80211_scan_completed() a warning will be triggered since mac80211 was not aware that a scan was in progress. The reason is that the queued scan work will start the hw scan right away when the hw_scan_req struct has already been allocated. However, in the first pass it will not have been filled, which happens at the same time as setting the bits. To fix this, simply move the allocation after the pending work test as well, so that the first iteration of the scan work will call __ieee80211_start_scan() even in the hardware scan case.

When injecting frames, mac80211 currently looks for the first AP interface that matches the source address of the injected frame. This breaks when such a frame is directed at a STA that has been moved to a VLAN. This patch fixes it by using sta_info_get_bss instead of sta_info_get, which also finds stations belonging to a VLAN interface of the same BSS as the AP interface.

When an injected frame gets buffered for a powersave STA or filtered and retransmitted, mac80211 attempts to parse the radiotap header again, which doesn't work because it's gone at that point. This patch adds a new flag for checking the availability of a radiotap header, so that it only attempts to parse it once, reusing the tx info on the next call to ieee80211_tx().

This adds a new regulatory hint to be used when we know all devices have been disconnected and idle. This can happen when we suspend, for instance. When we disconnect we can no longer assume the same regulatory rules learned from a country IE or beacon hints are applicable so restore regulatory settings to an initial state. Since driver hints are cached on the wiphy that called the hint, those hints are not reproduced onto cfg80211 as the wiphy will respect its own wiphy->regd regardless. Signed-off-by: NLuis R.

What a stupid mistake. In commit 813d7669 Author: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Date: Sun Jan 17 01:47:58 2010 +0100 mac80211: move control.hw_key assignment I inserted code testing the wrong flags field, which means that the test is almost always true (it's really testing for the peer's WMM support) and thus the later parts of the stack assume hw crypto will be done even if that's not true. Obviously, that broke software crypto. Maxim said so specifically, and Jochen probably uses some cipher that iwl3945 doesn't support in hardware, which might also explain that Maxim reports that even hw crypto is broken.

The loop that passes non-data frames to all relevant vifs inside the __ieee80211_rx_handle_packet keeps a pointer to the previous sdata to avoid having to make unnecessary copies of the frame it's handling. This led to a bug that caused it to apply the ieee80211_rx_data state to the wrong interface, thereby either missing the rx.sta pointer or having it assigned where it shouldn't be. This breaks (among other things) aggregation on some vifs, as action frame exchages are dropped to the cooked monitor interface due to rx->sta being NULL. Fix this by restructuring the loop so that it prepares the rx data just before making the skb copy and calling the rx handlers.

If a device has multiple MAC addresses, userspace will need to know about that. Similarly, if it allows the MAC addresses to vary by a bitmask. If a driver exports multiple addresses, it is assumed that it will be able to deal with that many different addresses, which need not necessarily match the ones programmed into the device; if a mask is set then the device should deal addresses within that mask based on an arbitrary "base address". To test it all and show how it is used, add support to hwsim even though it can't actually deal with addresses different from the default.

In an earlier commit, mac80211: disable software retry for now Pavel Roskin reported a problem that seems to be due to software retry of already transmitted frames. It turns out that we've never done that correctly, but due to some recent changes it now crashes in the TX code. I've added a comment in the patch that explains the problem better and also points to possible solutions -- which I can't implement right now. I disabled software retry of failed/filtered frames because it was broken. With the work of the previous patches, it now becomes fairly easy to re-enable it by adding a flag indicating that the frame shouldn't be modified, but still running it through the transmit handlers to populate the control information.
