      cfg80211: allow userspace to take ownership of interfaces · 78f22b6a
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      When dynamically creating interfaces from userspace, e.g. for P2P usage,
      such interfaces are usually owned by the process that created them, i.e.
      wpa_supplicant. Should wpa_supplicant crash, such interfaces will often
      cease operating properly and cause problems on restarting the process.
      
      To avoid this problem, introduce an ownership concept for interfaces. If
      an interface is owned by a netlink socket, then it will be destroyed if
      the netlink socket is closed for any reason, including if the process it
      belongs to crashed. This gives us a race-free way to get rid of any such
      interfaces.

      cfg80211: Pass TDLS peer capability information in tdls_mgmt · df942e7b
      Sunil Dutt Undekari 提交于
      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: send scan results from work queue · f9d15d16
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      Due to the previous commit, when a scan finishes, it is in theory
      possible to hit the following sequence:
       1. interface starts being removed
       2. scan is cancelled by driver and cfg80211 is notified
       3. scan done work is scheduled
       4. interface is removed completely, rdev->scan_req is freed,
          event sent to userspace but scan done work remains pending
       5. new scan is requested on another virtual interface
       6. scan done work runs, freeing the still-running scan
      
      To fix this situation, hang on to the scan done message and block
      new scans while that is the case, and only send the message from
      the work function, regardless of whether the scan_req is already
      freed from interface removal. This makes step 5 above impossible
      and changes step 6 to be
       5. scan done work runs, sending the scan done message
      
      As this can't work for wext, so we send the message immediately,
      but this shouldn't be an issue since we still return -EBUSY.

      nl80211: Reset split_start when netlink skb is exhausted · f12cb289

      When the netlink skb is exhausted split_start is left set. In the

      cfg80211: regulatory introduce maximum bandwidth calculation · 97524820
      Janusz Dziedzic 提交于
      In case we will get regulatory request with rule
      where max_bandwidth_khz is set to 0 handle this
      case as a special one.
      
      If max_bandwidth_khz == 0 we should calculate maximum
      available bandwidth base on all frequency contiguous rules.
      In case we need auto calculation we just have to set:
      
      country PL: DFS-ETSI
              (2402 - 2482 @ 40), (N/A, 20)
              (5170 - 5250 @ AUTO), (N/A, 20)
              (5250 - 5330 @ AUTO), (N/A, 20), DFS
              (5490 - 5710 @ 80), (N/A, 27), DFS
      
      This mean we will calculate maximum bw for rules where
      AUTO (N/A) were set, 160MHz (5330 - 5170) in example above.
      So we will get:
              (5170 - 5250 @ 160), (N/A, 20)
              (5250 - 5330 @ 160), (N/A, 20), DFS
      
      In other case:
      country FR: DFS-ETSI
              (2402 - 2482 @ 40), (N/A, 20)
              (5170 - 5250 @ AUTO), (N/A, 20)
              (5250 - 5330 @ 80), (N/A, 20), DFS
              (5490 - 5710 @ 80), (N/A, 27), DFS
      
      We will get 80MHz (5250 - 5170):
              (5170 - 5250 @ 80), (N/A, 20)
              (5250 - 5330 @ 80), (N/A, 20), DFS
      
      Base on this calculations we will set correct channel
      bandwidth flags (eg. IEEE80211_CHAN_NO_80MHZ).
      
      We don't need any changes in CRDA or internal regulatory.

      cfg80211: consider existing DFS interfaces · 9e0e2961
      Michal Kazior 提交于
      It was possible to break interface combinations in
      the following way:
      
       combo 1: iftype = AP, num_ifaces = 2, num_chans = 2,
       combo 2: iftype = AP, num_ifaces = 1, num_chans = 1, radar = HT20
      
      With the above interface combinations it was
      possible to:
      
       step 1. start AP on DFS channel by matching combo 2
       step 2. start AP on non-DFS channel by matching combo 1
      
      This was possible beacuse (step 2) did not consider
      if other interfaces require radar detection.
      
      The patch changes how cfg80211 tracks channels -
      instead of channel itself now a complete chandef
      is stored.

      nl80211: fix scheduled scan RSSI matchset attribute confusion · ea73cbce
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      The scheduled scan matchsets were intended to be a list of filters,
      with the found BSS having to pass at least one of them to be passed
      to the host. When the RSSI attribute was added, however, this was
      broken and currently wpa_supplicant adds that attribute in its own
      matchset; however, it doesn't intend that to mean that anything
      that passes the RSSI filter should be passed to the host, instead
      it wants it to mean that everything needs to also have higher RSSI.
      
      This is semantically problematic because we have a list of filters
      like [ SSID1, SSID2, SSID3, RSSI ] with no real indication which
      one should be OR'ed and which one AND'ed.
      
      To fix this, move the RSSI filter attribute into each matchset. As
      we need to stay backward compatible, treat a matchset with only the
      RSSI attribute as a "default RSSI filter" for all other matchsets,
      but only if there are other matchsets (an RSSI-only matchset by
      itself is still desirable.)
      
      To make driver implementation easier, keep a global min_rssi_thold
      for the entire request as well. The only affected driver is ath6kl.
      
      I found this when I looked into the code after Raja Mani submitted
      a patch fixing the n_match_sets calculation to disregard the RSSI,
      but that patch didn't address the semantic issue.

      nl80211: send event when AP operation is stopped · 348baf0e
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      There are a few cases, e.g. suspend, where an AP interface is
      stopped by the kernel rather than by userspace request, most
      commonly when suspending. To let userspace know about this,
      send the NL80211_CMD_STOP_AP command as an event every time
      an AP interface is stopped. This also happens when userspace
      did in fact request the AP stop, but that's not a problem.
      
      For full-MAC drivers this may need to be extended to also
      cover cases where the device stopped the AP operation for
      some reason, this a bit more complicated because then all
      cfg80211 state also needs to be reset; such API is not part
      of this patch.

      cfg80211: Allow BSS hint to be provided for connect · 1df4a510
      Jouni Malinen 提交于
      This clarifies the expected driver behavior on the older
      NL80211_ATTR_MAC and NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FREQ attributes and adds a new
      set of similar attributes with _HINT postfix to enable use of a
      recommendation of the initial BSS to choose. This can be helpful for
      some drivers that can avoid an additional full scan on connection
      request if the information is provided to them (user space tools like
      wpa_supplicant already has that information available based on earlier
      scans).
      
      In addition, this can be used to get more expected behavior for cases
      where a specific BSS should be picked first based on operations like
      Interworking network selection or WPS. These cases were already easily
      addressed with drivers that leave BSS selection to user space, but there
      was no convenient way to do this with drivers that take care of BSS
      selection internally without using the NL80211_ATTR_MAC which is not
      really desired since it is needed for other purposes to force the
      association to remain with the same BSS.
