Currently, get_wireless_stats is racy by _design_. This is because it returns a buffer, which needs to be statically allocated since it cannot be freed if it was allocated dynamically. Also, SIOCGIWSTATS and /proc/net/wireless use no common lock, and /proc/net/wireless accesses are not synchronised against each other. This is a design flaw in get_wireless_stats since the beginning. This patch fixes it by wrapping /proc/net/wireless accesses with the RTNL so they are protected against each other and SIOCGIWSTATS. The more correct method of fixing this would be to pass in the buffer instead of returning it and have the caller take care of synchronisation of the buffer, but even then most drivers probably assume that their callback is protected by the RTNL like all other wext callbacks.

IEEE 802.11w/D9.0 introduces a mechanism for Action field Category values to be used to select which Action frames are Robust. Public and Vendor-specific categories are marked as not Robust in IEEE 802.11w; HT will be marked not Robust in IEEE 802.11n. A new Vendor-specific Protected category is allocated for Robust vendor-specific Action frames. Another new category, Protected Dual of Action, is introduced for protecting some existing Public Action frames (e.g., IEEE 802.11y protected enablement).

iwlagn rate scaling will periodically search other rate scale tables to switch to the best table regarding performance. In the past the number of search tables were 3. Every time the rate scale algorithm goes through these available tables in will stay in current table for some time before start searching again.

This removes all the dead code that tries to adjust the power saving level based on the system AC state (inacceptable policy in the kernel) or based on overtemp conditions (unused). Also, pass _all_ policy wrt. enabling PS to mac80211, since we do not use the power_disabled internally I now use that to mirror the mac80211 CONF_PS setting. When mac80211 turns off CONF_PS we follow suit. This means that the user power level (which can currently only be set from sysfs) is not touched for mac80211 powersave changes. This means no "association status" checks are necessary since mac80211 will not allow power save to be enabled when not associated.

iwlwifi internally needs to keep track of whether PS is enabled in the firmware or not. To do this, it keeps a bit in the status flags, called STATUS_POWER_PMI. The code to set this bit looks as follows: static int iwl_set_power(struct iwl_priv *priv, void *cmd) { return iwl_send_cmd_pdu_async(priv, POWER_TABLE_CMD, sizeof(struct iwl_powertable_cmd), cmd, NULL); } int iwl_power_update_mode(...) { [...] if (final_mode != IWL_POWER_MODE_CAM) set_bit(STATUS_POWER_PMI, &priv->status); iwl_update_power_cmd(priv, &cmd, final_mode); cmd.keep_alive_beacons = 0; if (final_mode == IWL_POWER_INDEX_5) cmd.flags |= IWL_POWER_FAST_PD; ret = iwl_set_power(priv, &cmd); if (final_mode == IWL_POWER_MODE_CAM) clear_bit(STATUS_POWER_PMI, &priv->status); else set_bit(STATUS_POWER_PMI, &priv->status); if (priv->cfg->ops->lib->update_chain_flags && update_chains) priv->cfg->ops->lib->update_chain_flags(priv); [...] } Now, this bit really needs to track what the _firmware_ thinks, not what the driver thinks. Therefore, there is a race condition here -- the driver sets the bit before it knows that the async command sent to the card in the iwl_set_power function has been processed. As a result, the call to update_chain_flags() may think that the card has been woken up (PMI bit cleared) while in reality it hasn't processed the async POWER_TABLE_CMD yet. This leads to bugs -- any commands the update_chain_flags function sends can get stuck and subsequent commands also fail. The fix is almost trivial: since there's no reason to send an async command here (in fact, there almost never should be since many mac80211 callbacks can sleep) just make the function wait for the card to process the command and then return and clear the PMI bit.

When we disassociate, we set the channel to non-HT which obviously invalidates any ht_operation_mode setting. But when we then associate with the next AP again, we might still have the ht_operation_mode from the previous AP cached and fail to configure the hardware with the new (but unchanged) operation mode.

The call to ieee80211_hw_config() is supposed to apply changes synchronously, so once it returns the parameters are applied to the hardware. Thus, there really is no need to delay the probing by the channel switch time again since the channel switch has already happened once we get to this code. Additionally, there is no need to wait for a NAV update (probe delay) when the channel is passively scanned. Remove that extra time too. This cuts scanning time from over 7 seconds to under 4 on ar9170, which is due to the number of channels scanned and ar9170's switch time being advertised as 135ms (my test now indicates it is about 77ms with the current driver, but the difference might also be due to using a different machine with different USB controllers).

When management frame protection (IEEE 802.11w) is used, unprotected Robust Action frames are not allowed prior to key configuration. However, unprotected Deauthentication and Disassociation frames are allowed at that point, but not after key configuration. Make ieee80211_drop_unencrypted() handle the special cases for MFP by separating the basic Data frame case from Management frame processing and handle the Management frames only if MFP has been negotiated. In addition, do not use sdata->drop_unencrypted for Management frames since the decision on whether to accept the frame depends on the key being configured.

When using nl80211, we do not have a mechanism to set sdata->drop_unencrypted. Currently, this breaks code that is supposed to drop unencrypted frames when protection is expected since ieee80211_rx_h_decrypt() is optimized to not set rx->key when the frame is not protected. This patch modifies ieee80211_rx_h_decrypt() to set rx->key for all frames and only skip decryption if the frame is not protected. This allows ieee80211_drop_unencrypted() to correctly drop frames even if drop_unencrypted is not set. The changes here are not enough to handle all cases, though. Additional patches will be needed to implement proper IEEE 802.1X PAE for station mode (currently, this is only used for AP mode) and some additional rules are needed for MFP to drop unprotected Robust Action frames prior to having PTK and IGTK configured. In theory, the unprotected frames could and should be dropped in ieee80211_rx_h_decrypt(). However, due to the special case with EAPOL frames that have to be allowed to be received unprotected even when keys are set, it is simpler to only set rx->key and allow the ieee80211_frame_allowed() function to handle the actual dropping of data frames after 802.11->802.3 header conversion. In addition, unprotected robust management frames are dropped before they are processed. Signed-off-by: NJouni Malinen <jouni.malinen@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.

The function to parse a struct iw_freq has a stupid bug, it returns NULL when the channel cannot be found at all, but NULL is supposed to mean "auto". Fix this by checking the return value of ieee80211_get_channel() and returning ERR_PTR(-EINVAL) if it returned NULL (channel not found). This fixes an issue where you could say (in IBSS mode) iwconfig wlan0 channel 21 and it would use channel 1 instead because that's the first available channel with IBSS allowed (which is what the "auto" setting uses).

We've never really cared about the default QoS (WMM) values, but we really should if the AP doesn't send any. This patch makes mac80211 use the default values according to 802.11-2007, and additionally syncs the default values when we disassociate so whatever the last AP said gets "unconfigured".

When a software scan starts, it first sets sw_scanning, but leaves the scan_channel "unset" (it currently actually gets initialised to a default). Now, when something else tries to (re)configure the hardware in the window between these two events (after sw_scanning = true, but before scan_channel is set), the current code switches to the (unset!) scan_channel. This causes trouble, especially when switching bands and sending frames on the wrong channel. To work around this, leave scan_channel initialised to NULL and use it to determine whether or not a switch to a different channel should occur (and also use the same condition to check whether to adjust power for scan or not). Additionally, avoid reconfiguring the hardware completely when recalculating idle resulted in no changes, this was the problem that originally led us to discover the race condition in the first place, which was helpfully bisected by Pavel. This part of the patch should not be necessary with the other fixes, but not calling the ieee80211_hw_config function when we know it to be unnecessary is certainly a correct thing to do. Unfortunately, this patch cannot and does not fix the race condition completely, but due to the way the scan code is structured it makes the particular problem Pavel discovered (race while changing channel at the same time as transmitting frames) go away. To fix it completely, more work especially with locking configuration is needed.

NL80211_CMD_ASSOCIATE request must be able to indicate whether management frame protection (IEEE 802.11w) is being used. mac80211 was able to use MFP in client mode only with WEXT, but the new NL80211_ATTR_USE_MFP attribute will allow this to be done with nl80211, too. Since we are currently using nl80211 for MFP only with drivers that use user space SME, only MFP disabled and required values are used. However, the NL80211_ATTR_USE_MFP attribute is an enum that can be extended with MFP optional in the future, if that is needed with some drivers (e.g., if the RSN IE is generated by the driver).
