      mac80211: add pre-RCU-sync sta removal driver operation · 6a9d1b91
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      Currently, mac80211 allows drivers to keep RCU-protected station
      references that are cleared when the station is removed from the
      driver and consequently needs to synchronize twice, once before
      removing the station from the driver (so it can guarantee that
      the station is no longer used in TX towards the driver) and once
      after the station is removed from the driver.
      
      Add a new pre-RCU-synchronisation station removal operation to
      the API to allow drivers to clear/invalidate their RCU-protected
      station pointers before the RCU synchronisation.
      
      This will allow removing the second synchronisation by changing
      the driver API so that the driver may no longer assume a valid
      RCU-protected pointer after sta_remove/sta_state returns.
      
      The alternative to this would be to synchronize_rcu() in all the
      drivers that currently rely on this behaviour (only iwlmvm) but
      that would defeat the purpose.

      mac80211: fix nested sdata lock for IBSS/CSA · bafdc614
      Simon Wunderlich 提交于
      This fixes a regression introduced by my patch "mac80211: don't cancel
      csa finalize work within stop_ap", which added sdata locks to
      ieee80211_csa_finalize_work() without removing the locking for
      ieee80211_ibss_finish_csa(), which is called by the former, resulting
      in a deadlock due to nested locking.

      mac80211: start_next_roc only if scan was actually running · a2b70e83
      Eliad Peller 提交于
      On scan completion we try start any pending roc.
      
      However, if scan was just pending (and not actually started)
      there is no point in trying to start the roc, as it might
      have started already.
      
      This solves the following warning:

      mac80211: determine completed scan type by defined ops · 8bd2a248
      Eliad Peller 提交于
      In some cases, determining the completed scan type was
      done by testing the SCAN_HW_SCANNING flag.
      
      However, this doesn't take care for the case in which
      the hw scan was requested, but hasn't started yet (e.g.
      due to active remain_on_channel).
      
      Replace this test by checking whether ops->hw_scan is
      defined.
      
      This solves the following warning:
