When STAs are expired, we need to hold the sta_lock. Using the same lock for keys too would then mean we'd need another key free function, and that'll just lead to confusion, so just use a new spinlock for all key lists.

Up to now, key manipulation is supposed to run under RTNL to avoid concurrent manipulations and also allow the set_key() hardware callback to sleep. This is not feasible because STA structs are rcu-protected and thus a lot of operations there cannot take the RTNL. Also, key references are rcu-protected so we cannot do things atomically. This patch changes key locking completely: * key operations are now atomic * hardware crypto offload is enabled and disabled from a workqueue, due to that key freeing is also delayed * debugfs code is also run from a workqueue * keys reference STAs (and vice versa!) so during STA unlink the STAs key reference is removed but not the keys STA reference, to avoid races key todo work is run before STA destruction. * fewer STA operations now need the RTNL which was required due to key operations This fixes the locking problems lockdep pointed out and also makes things more light-weight because the rtnl isn't required as much. Note that the key todo lock/key mutex are global locks, this is not required, of course, they could be per-hardware instead.

When STA structure insertion fails, it has been allocated but isn't really alive yet, it isn't reachable by any other code and also can't yet have much configured.

ieee80211_sta_work is disabled while network interface is down. Therefore, if you configure wireless parameters before bringing the interface up, these configurations are not yet effective and association fails. A workaround from userspace is calling a command like 'iwconfig wlan0 ap any' after the interface is brought up. To fix this behaviour, trigger execution of ieee80211_sta_work from ieee80211_open when in STA or IBSS mode. Signed-off-by: NJan Niehusmann <jan@gondor.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

When we take down an interface, we need to remove the STA info items that belong to it because otherwise we might invoke a sta_notify() callback in the driver when we later delete the STA entries, but in that case the driver will already have removed its knowledge of the interface they belonged to leading to confusion. Also, we could invoke the set_tim() callback after the driver removed its knowledge of the interface, which can lead to a crash if it requests a beacon with a then-invalid vif pointer! A side effect of this patch is that, because it was easier, it disallows changing the WDS peer while an interface is up. Should that actually be necessary, it can be added back, but the WDS peer STA entry may not be added while the interface is UP so for now I've simplified the WDS peer's STA entry lifetime management.

sta_info_add() has two functions: allocating a station info structure and inserting it into the hash table/list. Splitting these two functions allows allocating with GFP_KERNEL in many places instead of GFP_ATOMIC which is now required by the RCU protection. Additionally, in many places RCU protection is now no longer needed at all because between sta_info_alloc() and sta_info_insert() the caller owns the structure. This fixes a few race conditions with setting initial flags and similar, but not all (see comments in ieee80211_sta.c and cfg.c). More documentation on the existing races will be in a follow-up patch. Signed-off-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: NJohn W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

This makes access to the STA hash table/list use RCU to protect against freeing of items. However, it's not a true RCU, the copy step is missing: whenever somebody changes a STA item it is simply updated. This is an existing race condition that is now somewhat understandable. This patch also fixes the race key freeing vs. STA destruction by making sure that sta_info_destroy() is always called under RTNL and frees the key.

When a STA structure is added, it is often checked whether it already exists before adding it. This, however, isn't done atomically so there is a race condition that could lead to two STA structures being added with the same MAC address. This patch changes sta_info_add() to return an ERR_PTR in case of failure and adds the failure mode -EEXIST when the STA already exists.

This patch removes the 802.1X port acess control enable flag since it is not required. Instead, set the authorized flag for each station that we normally communicate with (WDS peers, IBSS peers and APs we're associated to) and require hostapd to set the authorized flag for all stations when port control is not enabled. Also, since I was working in that area, this documents station flags and removes the unused "permanent" one. Signed-off-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

This patch creates new cfg80211 wiphy API for channel and bitrate registration and converts mac80211 and drivers to the new API. The old mac80211 API is completely ripped out. All drivers (except ath5k) are updated to the new API, in many cases I expect that optimisations can be done. Along with the regulatory code I've also ripped out the IEEE80211_HW_DEFAULT_REG_DOMAIN_CONFIGURED flag, I believe it to be unnecessary if the hardware simply gives us whatever channels it wants to support and we then enable/disable them as required, which is pretty much required for travelling. Additionally, the patch adds proper "basic" rate handling for STA mode interface, AP mode interface will have to have new API added to allow userspace to set the basic rate set, currently it'll be empty... However, the basic rate handling will need to be moved to the BSS conf stuff. I do expect there to be bugs in this, especially wrt. transmit power handling where I'm basically clueless about how it should work.

This patch (based on Ron Rindjunsky's) creates a framework for a unified way to pass BSS configuration to drivers that require the information, e.g. for implementing power save mode. This patch introduces new ieee80211_bss_conf structure that is passed to the driver via the new bss_info_changed() callback when the BSS configuration changes. This new BSS configuration infrastructure adds the following new features: * drivers are notified of their association AID * drivers are notified of association status and replaces the erp_ie_changed() callback. The patch also does the relevant driver updates for the latter change.

This patch gets rid of the if_id stuff where possible in favour of a new per-virtual-interface structure "struct ieee80211_vif". This structure is located at the end of the per-interface structure and contains a variable length driver-use data area.
