      cfg80211: clear SSID on disconnect/no connection · 8dadadb7
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      The SME state machine in cfg80211 uses the SSID stored
      in struct wireless_dev internally, but fails to clear
      it in multiple places (when giving up on a connection
      attempt and when disconnecting). This doesn't matter to
      the SME state machine, but does matter for IBSS. Thus,
      in those cases, clear the SSID to avoid messing up the
      IBSS state machine.

      cfg80211: lower dynamic PS timeout to 100ms · 75e6c3b7
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      The default of 500ms is pretty high, and leads
      to the device being awake at least 50% of the
      time under such light traffic conditions as a
      simple 1 second interval ping. Reduce to just
      100ms -- it should have a similar effect while
      providing a better sleep time.

      cfg80211: enable country IE support to all cfg80211 drivers · 8b19e6ca
      Luis R. Rodriguez 提交于
      Since the bss is always set now once we are connected, if the
      bss has its own information element we refer to it and pass that
      instead of relying on mac80211's parsing.
      
      Now all cfg80211 drivers get country IE support, automatically and
      we reduce the call overhead that we had on mac80211 which called this
      upon every beacon and instead now call this only upon a successfull
      connection by a STA on cfg80211.

      cfg80211: decouple regulatory variables from cfg80211_mutex · abc7381b
      Luis R. Rodriguez 提交于
      We change regulatory code to be protected by its own regulatory
      mutex and alleviate cfg80211_mutex to only be used to protect
      cfg80211_rdev_list, the registered device list.
      
      By doing this we will be able to work on regulatory core components
      without having to have hog up the cfg80211_mutex. An example here is
      we no longer need to use the cfg80211_mutex during driver specific
      wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory(). We also no longer need it for the
      the country IE regulatory hint; by doing so we end up curing this

      cfg80211: do not iterate over rdev list on country IE hint · 4b44c8bc
      Luis R. Rodriguez 提交于
      Simplify the country IE hint code by just bailing out if
      a previous country IE has been issued. We currently just trust
      the first AP we connect to on any card. The idea was to perform
      conflict resolution within this routine but since we can no longer
      iterate over the registered device list here we leave conflict
      resolution to be dealt with at a later time on the workqueue.
      
      This code has no functional changes other than saving us an
      interation over the registered device list when a second card
      is connected, or you unplug and connect the same one, and a
      country IE is received. This would have been done upon every
      beacon received.

      cfg80211: fix regression on beacon world roaming feature · 37184244
      Luis R. Rodriguez 提交于
      A regression was added through patch a4ed90d6:
      
      "cfg80211: respect API on orig_flags on channel for beacon hint"
      
      We did indeed respect _orig flags but the intention was not clearly
      stated in the commit log. This patch fixes firmware issues picked
      up by iwlwifi when we lift passive scan of beaconing restrictions
      on channels its EEPROM has been configured to always enable.
      
      By doing so though we also disallowed beacon hints on devices
      registering their wiphy with custom world regulatory domains
      enabled, this happens to be currently ath5k, ath9k and ar9170.
      The passive scan and beacon restrictions on those devices would
      never be lifted even if we did find a beacon and the hardware did
      support such enhancements when world roaming.
      
      Since Johannes indicates iwlwifi firmware cannot be changed to
      allow beacon hinting we set up a flag now to specifically allow
      drivers to disable beacon hints for devices which cannot use them.
      
      We enable the flag on iwlwifi to disable beacon hints and by default
      enable it for all other drivers. It should be noted beacon hints lift
      passive scan flags and beacon restrictions when we receive a beacon from
      an AP on any 5 GHz non-DFS channels, and channels 12-14 on the 2.4 GHz
      band. We don't bother with channels 1-11 as those channels are allowed
      world wide.
      
      This should fix world roaming for ath5k, ath9k and ar9170, thereby
      improving scan time when we receive the first beacon from any AP,
      and also enabling beaconing operation (AP/IBSS/Mesh) on cards which
      would otherwise not be allowed to do so. Drivers not using custom
      regulatory stuff (wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory()) were not affected
      by this as the orig_flags for the channels would have been cleared
      upon wiphy registration.
      
      I tested this with a world roaming ath5k card.

      cfg80211: make aware of net namespaces · 463d0183
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      In order to make cfg80211/nl80211 aware of network namespaces,
      we have to do the following things:
      
       * del_virtual_intf method takes an interface index rather
         than a netdev pointer - simply change this
      
       * nl80211 uses init_net a lot, it changes to use the sender's
         network namespace
      
       * scan requests use the interface index, hold a netdev pointer
         and reference instead
      
       * we want a wiphy and its associated virtual interfaces to be
         in one netns together, so
          - we need to be able to change ns for a given interface, so
            export dev_change_net_namespace()
          - for each virtual interface set the NETIF_F_NETNS_LOCAL
            flag, and clear that flag only when the wiphy changes ns,
            to disallow breaking this invariant
      
       * when a network namespace goes away, we need to reparent the
         wiphy to init_net
      
       * cfg80211 users that support creating virtual interfaces must
         create them in the wiphy's namespace, currently this affects
         only mac80211
      
      The end result is that you can now switch an entire wiphy into
      a different network namespace with the new command
      	iw phy#<idx> set netns <pid>
      and all virtual interfaces will follow (or the operation fails).
