      mac80211: Fix race in checking AP status by sending null frame · 992e68bf
      Soumik Das 提交于
      mac80211 tries to verify the existence of the current AP by
      probing or sending a NULL frame in function
      ieee80211_mgd_probe_ap_send. It 1st sends a null frame to the AP,
      increments probe_send_count and waits for the ACK to the NULL
      frame for a finite duration of time. At times, it happens that by
      the time mac80211 gets to increment probe_send_count, the ACK for
      the NULL frame transmitted has already been processed. This leads
      to a race condition where mac80211 times out waiting for the ACK
      for the NULL frame causing unnecessary disconnection with the AP.

      mac80211: Don't let regulatory make us deaf · 3117bbdb
      Paul Stewart 提交于
      When regulatory information changes our HT behavior (e.g,
      when we get a country code from the AP we have just associated
      with), we should use this information to change the power with
      which we transmit, and what channels we transmit.  Sometimes
      the channel parameters we derive from regulatory information
      contradicts the parameters we used in association.  For example,
      we could have associated specifying HT40, but the regulatory
      rules we apply may forbid HT40 operation.
      
      In the situation above, we should reconfigure ourselves to
      transmit in HT20 only, however it makes no sense for us to
      disable receive in HT40, since if we associated with these
      parameters, the AP has every reason to expect we can and
      will receive packets this way.  The code in mac80211 does
      not have the capability of sending the appropriate action
      frames to signal a change in HT behaviour so the AP has
      no clue we can no longer receive frames encoded this way.
      In some broken AP implementations, this can leave us
      effectively deaf if the AP never retries in lower HT rates.
      
      This change breaks up the channel_type parameter in the
      ieee80211_enable_ht function into a separate receive and
      transmit part.  It honors the channel flags set by regulatory
      in order to configure the rate control algorithm, but uses
      the capability flags to configure the channel on the radio,
      since these were used in association to set the AP's transmit
      rate.

      mac80211: rename bss_conf timestamp to last_tsf · e9ac0745
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      This value is not really very useful by itself,
      yet some drivers (including iwlwifi until I can
      figure out what it should do) use it. At least
      rename it to "last_tsf" to indicate the meaning
      and add a note that it may be really old.
      
      I suspect the value may become useful combined
      with the rx_status->mactime, but we don't (yet)
      store that value and pass it to the driver.

      mac80211: Filter duplicate IE ids · fcff4f10
      Paul Stewart 提交于
      mac80211 is lenient with respect to reception of corrupted beacons.
      Even if the frame is corrupted as a whole, the available IE elements
      are still passed back and accepted, sometimes replacing legitimate
      data.  It is unknown to what extent this "feature" is made use of,
      but it is clear that in some cases, this is detrimental.  One such
      case is reported in http://crosbug.com/26832 where an AP corrupts
      its beacons but not its probe responses.
      
      One approach would be to completely reject frames with invaid data
      (for example, if the last tag extends beyond the end of the enclosing
      PDU).  The enclosed approach is much more conservative: we simply
      prevent later IEs from overwriting the state from previous ones.
      This approach hopes that there might be some salient data in the
      IE stream before the corruption, and seeks to at least prevent that
      data from being overwritten.  This approach will fix the case above.
      
      Further, we flag element structures that contain data we think might
      be corrupted, so that as we fill the mac80211 BSS structure, we try
      not to replace data from an un-corrupted probe response with that
      of a corrupted beacon, for example.
      
      Short of any statistics gathering in the various forms of AP breakage,
      it's not possible to ascertain the side effects of more stringent
      discarding of data.

      mac80211: make deauth/disassoc sequence more natural · 37ad3888
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      The association sequence looks (roughly) like
      this now:
       * set BSSID
       * set station to EXIST state
       * send auth
       * set station to AUTH state
       * send assoc
       * set station to ASSOC state
       * set BSS info to associated
      
      In contrast, the deauth/disassoc sequence is
      the other way around:
       * clear BSSID/BSS info state
       * remove station
       * send deauth/disassoc
      (in some cases the last two steps are reversed.)
      
      This patch encodes the entire sequence in the
      ieee80211_set_disassoc() function and changes
      it to be like this, for good measure with an
      explicit flush:
       * send deauth/disassoc
       * flush
       * remove station
       * clear BSSID/BSS info state
      
      At least iwlwifi gets confused with the other
      sequence in P2P mode and complains that it
      wasn't able to flush the queues.
