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 a STA is supposed to be unlinked but is pinned, it still needs to be unlinked from all structures. Only at the end of the unlink process should we check for pin status and invalidate the callers reference if it is pinned. Move the pin status check down.

Unfortunately, debugfs can be made to access invalid memory by open()ing a file and then waiting until the corresponding debugfs file has been removed (and, probably, the underlying object.) That could be exploited by any user if the user is able to open debugfs files and can cause networking devices, STA entries or similar to disappear which is quite easy to do. Hence, all debugfs files should be root-only. Signed-off-by: NJohannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: NJohn W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

When drivers receive change notification they may do work that will enable the changes to take effect. For example, if new association the device needs to be programmed with this information. Give the driver chance to make the changes before notifying the upper layer - thus preventing race condition where upper layer attempts to utilize state that may not be configured yet.

Because we queue the sta-debugfs-adding work on our mac80211 workqueue (which needs to be flushed under RTNL) and that work needs the RTNL, it can currently deadlock, thanks to Reinette Chatre for pointing out the lockdep warning about this. This patch fixes it by moving this work to the common kernel workqueue (using schedule_work) and canceling it as appropriate. It also fixes a related problem: When a STA is pinned by the debugfs adding work and sta_info_flush() runs concurrently it is not guaranteed that all STAs are removed from the driver before the corresponding interface is removed which may lead to bugs.

This reverts commit 6c4711b4. That patch breaks mesh config comparison between beacons/probe reponses, so every beacon from a mesh network would be added as a new bss. Since the comparison has to be performed for every received beacon I believe it is best to save the mesh config in a format easy to compare, rather than do a bunch of unaligned accesses to compare field by field.

Calling sta_info_destroy() doesn't require RCU-synchronisation before-hand because it does that internally. However, it does require rtnl-locking so insert that where necessary.

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.

This patch reorders some fields in various structures to have less padding within the structures, making them smaller. It doesn't yet make any type adjustments, but often size_t is used for example for IE lengths which is total overkill since size_t will be 8 bytes long on 64-bit yet the length can at most fill a u8.

When you have an AP on channel 13, it will currently often enough be listed in scan results even when the regulatory domain restricts to channels 1-11. This is due to channel overlap. To avoid getting very strange failures, don't show such APs in the scan results. The failure mode will now go from "I can see the AP but not associate" to "I can't see the AP although I know it's there" which is easier to debug.
