      mac80211: set beamforming bit in radiotap · fb378c23
      Emmanuel Grumbach 提交于
      Add a bit in rx_status.vht_flags to let the low level driver
      notify mac80211 about a beamformed packet. Propagate this
      to the radiotap header.

      cfg80211/mac80211: ignore signal if the frame was heard on wrong channel · 3afc2167
      Emmanuel Grumbach 提交于
      On 2.4Ghz band, the channels overlap since the delta
      between different channels is 5Mhz while the width of the
      receiver is 20Mhz (at least).
      
      This means that we can hear beacons or probe responses from
      adjacent channels. These frames will have a significant
      lower RSSI which will feed all kinds of logic with inaccurate
      data. An obvious example is the roaming algorithm that will
      think our AP is getting weak and will try to move to another
      AP.
      
      In order to avoid this, update the signal only if the frame
      has been heard on the same channel as the one advertised by
      the AP in its DS / HT IEs.
      We refrain from updating the values only if the AP is
      already in the BSS list so that we will still have a valid
      (but inaccurate) value if the AP was heard on an adjacent
      channel only.
      
      To achieve this, stop taking the channel from DS / HT IEs
      in mac80211. The DS / HT IEs is taken into account to
      discard the frame if it was received on a disabled channel.
      This can happen due to the same phenomenon: the frame is
      sent on channel 12, but heard on channel 11 while channel
      12 can be disabled on certain devices. Since this check
      is done in cfg80211, stop even checking this in mac80211.

      mac80211: add status_driver_data array to ieee80211_tx_info · a0f995a5
      Eliad Peller 提交于
      Drivers might want to have private data in addition
      to all other ieee80211_tx_info.status fields.
      
      The current ieee80211_tx_info.rate_driver_data overlaps
      with some of the non-rate data (e.g. ampdu_ack_len), so
      it might not be good enough.
      
      Since we already know how much free bytes remained,
      simply use this size to define (void *) array.
      
      While on it, change ack_signal type from int to the more
      explicit s32 type.

      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.

      cfg80211: fix channel configuration in IBSS join · fe94f3a4
      Antonio Quartulli 提交于
      When receiving an IBSS_JOINED event select the BSS object
      based on the {bssid, channel} couple rather than the bssid
      only.
      With the current approach if another cell having the same
      BSSID (but using a different channel) exists then cfg80211
      picks up the wrong BSS object.
      The result is a mismatching channel configuration between
      cfg80211 and the driver, that can lead to any sort of
      problem.
      
      The issue can be triggered by having an IBSS sitting on
      given channel and then asking the driver to create a new
      cell using the same BSSID but with a different frequency.
      By passing the channel to cfg80211_get_bss() we can solve
      this ambiguity and retrieve/create the correct BSS object.
      All the users of cfg80211_ibss_joined() have been changed
      accordingly.
      
      Moreover WARN when cfg80211_ibss_joined() gets a NULL
      channel as argument and remove a bogus call of the same
      function in ath6kl (it does not make sense to call
      cfg80211_ibss_joined() with a zero BSSID on ibss-leave).

      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.

      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.

      mac80211: only set CSA beacon when at least one beacon must be transmitted · 66e01cf9
      Luciano Coelho 提交于
      A beacon should never have a Channel Switch Announcement information
      element with a count of 0, because a count of 1 means switch just
      before the next beacon.  So, if a count of 0 was valid in a beacon, it
      would have been transmitted in the next channel already, which is
      useless.  A CSA count equal to zero is only meaningful in action
      frames or probe_responses.
      
      Fix the ieee80211_csa_is_complete() and ieee80211_update_csa()
      functions accordingly.
      
      With a CSA count of 0, we won't transmit any CSA beacons, because the
      switch will happen before the next TBTT.  To avoid extra work and
      potential confusion in the drivers, complete the CSA immediately,
      instead of waiting for the driver to call ieee80211_csa_finish().
      
      To keep things simpler, we also switch immediately when the CSA count
      is 1, while in theory we should delay the switch until just before the
      next TBTT.
      
      Additionally, move the ieee80211_csa_finish() function to cfg.c,
      where it makes more sense.
