      nl80211: Add notification for dropped Deauth/Disassoc · cf4e594e
      Jouni Malinen 提交于
      Add a new notification to indicate that a received, unprotected
      Deauthentication or Disassociation frame was dropped due to
      management frame protection being in use. This notification is
      needed to allow user space (e.g., wpa_supplicant) to implement
      SA Query procedure to recover from association state mismatch
      between an AP and STA.
      
      This is needed to avoid getting stuck in non-working state when MFP
      (IEEE 802.11w) is used and a protected Deauthentication or
      Disassociation frame is dropped for any reason. After that, the
      station would silently discard any unprotected Deauthentication or
      Disassociation frame that could be indicating that the AP does not
      have association for the STA (when the Reason Code would be 6 or 7).
      IEEE Std 802.11w-2009, 11.13 describes this recovery mechanism.

      cfg80211: Add local-state-change-only auth/deauth/disassoc · d5cdfacb
      Jouni Malinen 提交于
      cfg80211 is quite strict on allowing authentication and association
      commands only in certain states. In order to meet these requirements,
      user space applications may need to clear authentication or
      association state in some cases. Currently, this can be done with
      deauth/disassoc command, but that ends up sending out Deauthentication
      or Disassociation frame unnecessarily. Add a new nl80211 attribute to
      allow this sending of the frame be skipped, but with all other
      deauth/disassoc operations being completed.
      
      Similar state change is also needed for IEEE 802.11r FT protocol in
      the FT-over-DS case which does not use Authentication frame exchange
      in a transition to another BSS. For this to work with cfg80211, an
      authentication entry needs to be created for the target BSS without
      sending out an Authentication frame. The nl80211 authentication
      command can be used for this purpose, too, with the new attribute to
      indicate that the command is only for changing local state. This
      enables wpa_supplicant to complete FT-over-DS transition successfully.

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.

      cfg80211: Add connection quality monitoring support to nl80211 · d6dc1a38
      Juuso Oikarinen 提交于
      Add support for basic configuration of a connection quality monitoring to the
      nl80211 interface, and basic support for notifying about triggered monitoring
      events.
      
      Via this interface a user-space connection manager may configure and receive
      pre-warning events of deteriorating WLAN connection quality, and start
      preparing for roaming in advance, before the connection is already lost.
      
      An example usage of such a trigger is starting scanning for nearby AP's in
      an attempt to find one with better connection quality, and associate to it
      before the connection characteristics of the existing connection become too bad
      or the association is even lost, leading in a prolonged delay in connectivity.
      
      The interface currently supports only RSSI, but it could be later extended
      to include other parameters, such as signal-to-noise ratio, if need for that
      arises.

      cfg80211/mac80211: allow registering for and sending action frames · 026331c4
      Jouni Malinen 提交于
      This implements a new command to register for action frames
      that userspace wants to handle instead of the in-kernel
      rejection. It is then responsible for rejecting ones that
      it decided not to handle. There is no unregistration, but
      the socket can be closed for that.
      
      Frames that are not registered for will not be forwarded
      to userspace and will be rejected by the kernel, the
      cfg80211 API helps implementing that.
      
      Additionally, this patch adds a new command that allows
      doing action frame transmission from userspace. It can be
      used either to exchange action frames on the current
      operational channel (e.g., with the AP with which we are
      currently associated) or to exchange off-channel Public
      Action frames with the remain-on-channel command.

      Add new commands for requesting the driver to remain awake

      can be used to implement userspace-controlled off-channel
      operations, like Public Action frame exchange on another
      channel than the operation channel.
      
      The off-channel operation should behave similarly to scan,
      i.e. the local station (if associated) moves into power
      save mode to request the AP to buffer frames for it and
      then moves to the other channel to allow the off-channel
      operation to be completed. The duration parameter can be
      used to request enough time to receive a response from
      the target station.

      It is not clear to me how the first "direct probe" here
      happens, but this seems to be a race condition, if the
      user requests to deauth after requesting assoc, but before
      the assoc response is received. In that case, it may
      happen that mac80211 tries to report the assoc success to
      cfg80211, but gets blocked on the wdev lock that is held
      because the user is requesting the deauth.
      
      The result is that we run into a warning. This is mostly
      harmless, but maybe cause an unexpected event to be sent
      to userspace; we'd send an assoc success event although
      userspace was no longer expecting that.
      
      To fix this, remove the warning and check whether the
      race happened and in that case abort processing.

      because userspace might deauth while the AP is also
      sending a deauth frame, so the warning was removed.
      
      However, in that case we should not tell userspace
      about the AP's frame if it requested deauth "first",
      where "first" means it came to cfg80211 first.

      mac80211: avoid spurious deauth frames/messages · a58ce43f
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      With WEXT, it happens frequently that the SME
      requests an authentication but then deauthenticates
      right away because some new parameters came along.
      Every time this happens we print a deauth message
      and send a deauth frame, but both of that is rather
      confusing. Avoid it by aborting the authentication
      process silently, and telling cfg80211 about that.
      
      The patch looks larger than it really is:
      __cfg80211_auth_remove() is split out from
      cfg80211_send_auth_timeout(), there's no new code
      except __cfg80211_auth_canceled() (a one-liner) and

      after the connection has been established (in managed
      mode), the IBSS been joined (in IBSS mode), at any time
      (in AP[_VLAN] modes) or never for all the other modes.
      
      In order to do shared key authentication correctly, it
      is now possible to give a WEP key to the AUTH command.
      To configure static WEP keys, these are given to the
      CONNECT or IBSS_JOIN command directly, for a userspace
      SME it is assumed it will configure it properly after
      the connection has been established.
      
      Since mac80211 used to check the default key in IBSS
      mode to see whether or not the network is protected,
      it needs an update in that area, as well as an update
      to make use of the WEP key passed to auth() for shared
      key authentication.

      cfg80211: fix locking · 667503dd
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      Over time, a lot of locking issues have crept into
      the smarts of cfg80211, so e.g. scan completion can
      race against a new scan, IBSS join can race against
      leaving an IBSS, etc.
      
      Introduce a new per-interface lock that protects
      most of the per-interface data that we need to keep
      track of, and sprinkle assertions about that lock
      everywhere. Some things now need to be offloaded to
      work structs so that we don't require being able to
      sleep in functions the drivers call. The exception
      to that are the MLME callbacks (rx_auth etc.) that
      currently only mac80211 calls because it was easier
      to do that there instead of in cfg80211, and future
      drivers implementing those calls will, if they ever
      exist, probably need to use a similar scheme like
      mac80211 anyway...
      
      In order to be able to handle _deauth and _disassoc
      properly, introduce a cookie passed to it that will
      determine locking requirements.

      cfg80211: warn again on spurious deauth · c1e6fb1a
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      The original code in mac80211 could send a deauth
      frame under certain circumstances even if nothing
      had ever requested an authentication. This has been
      fixed with the rework there, so cfg80211 can now
      warn again about spurious events to catch possible
      future drivers or mac80211 regressions.

      cfg80211: mlme API must be able to sleep · cb0b4beb
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      After the mac80211 mlme cleanup, we can require that
      the MLME functions in cfg80211 can sleep. This will
      simplify future work in cfg80211 a lot.
