7528ec5776 mac80211: add function to create data frame template including key
For some TDLS channel switch implementations data frames need to be
sent by the firmware based on a template. This template should be
created by mac80211, and thus needs to properly be built from an
802.3 frame into an 802.11 frame. In addition, the device will need
the key information so the select_key handler needs to be run.
However, the driver/device will be responsible for all of the crypto
encapsulation, as the sequence numbers etc. cannot be built by the
host anyway in this case since it's a template to be used multiple
times.

73c4e195e6 mac80211: move skb info band assignment out
Instead of passing the band as a parameter to ieee80211_xmit()
and ieee80211_tx(), move it outside of the two functions while
making sure info->band is set up before calling them.

This removes the parameter and simplifies the follow commit.

239281f803 mac80211: 802.11p OCB mode support
This patch adds 802.11p OCB (Outside the Context of a BSS) mode
support.

When communicating in OCB mode a mandatory wildcard BSSID
(48 '1' bits) is used.

The EDCA parameters handling function was changed to support
802.11p specific values.

The insertion of a newly discovered STAs is done in the similar way
as in the IBSS mode -- through the deferred insertion.

The OCB mode uses a periodic 'housekeeping task' for expiration of
disconnected STAs (in the similar manner as in the MESH mode).

New Kconfig option for verbose OCB debugging outputs is added.

John W. Linville says:

====================
pull request: wireless-next 2014-09-22

Please pull this batch of updates intended for the 3.18 stream...

For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:

"This time, I have some rate minstrel improvements, support for a very
small feature from CCX that Steinar reverse-engineered, dynamic ACK
timeout support, a number of changes for TDLS, early support for radio
resource measurement and many fixes. Also, I'm changing a number of
places to clear key memory when it's freed and Intel claims copyright
for code they developed."

For the bluetooth bits, Johan says:

"Here are some more patches intended for 3.18. Most of them are cleanups
or fixes for SMP. The only exception is a fix for BR/EDR L2CAP fixed
channels which should now work better together with the L2CAP
information request procedure."

For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says:

"I fix here dvm which was broken by my last pull request. Arik
continues to work on TDLS and Luca solved a few issues in CT-Kill. Eyal
keeps digging into rate scaling code, more to come soon. Besides this,
nothing really special here."

Beyond that, there are the usual big batches of updates to ath9k, b43,
mwifiex, and wil6210 as well as a handful of other bits here and there.
Also, rtlwifi gets some btcoexist attention from Larry.

Please let me know if there are problems!
====================

Had to adjust the wil6210 code to comply with Joe Perches's recent
change in net-next to make the netdev_*() routines return void instead
of 'int'.

bf7fa551e0 mac80211: Resolve sk_refcnt/sk_wmem_alloc issue in wifi ack path
There is a possible issue with the use, or lack thereof of sk_refcnt and
sk_wmem_alloc in the wifi ack status functionality.

Specifically if a socket were to request acknowledgements, and the socket
were to have sk_refcnt drop to 0 resulting in it waiting on sk_wmem_alloc
to reach 0 it would be possible to have sock_queue_err_skb orphan the last
buffer, resulting in __sk_free being called on the socket.  After this the
buffer is enqueued on sk_error_queue, however the queue has already been
flushed resulting in at least a memory leak, if not a data corruption.

c70f59a2a0 mac80211: don't resize skbs needlessly
Header-less cloned skbs with sufficient headroom need not be cloned
unless the tailroom is going to be modified.

Fix ieee80211_skb_resize so it would only resize cloned skbs if either
the header isn't released or the tailroom is going to be modified.

Some drivers might have assumed that skbs are never cloned, so add a HW
flag that explicitly permits cloned TX skbs. Drivers which do not modify
TX skbs should set this flag to avoid copying skbs.

cca07b00a5 mac80211: introduce refcount for queue_stop_reasons
Sometimes different vifs may be stopping the queues for the same
reason (e.g. when several interfaces are performing a channel switch).
Instead of using a bitmask for the reasons, use an integer that holds
a refcount instead.  In order to keep it backwards compatible,
introduce a boolean in some functions that tell us whether the queue
stopping should be refcounted or not.  For now, use not refcounted for
all calls to keep it functionally the same as before.

means it is unreliable to depend on it on codeflow

5ac2e35030 mac80211: fix station/driver powersave race
It is currently possible to have a race due to the station PS
unblock work like this:
 * station goes to sleep with frames buffered in the driver
 * driver blocks wakeup
 * station wakes up again
 * driver flushes/returns frames, and unblocks, which schedules
   the unblock work
 * unblock work starts to run, and checks that the station is
   awake (i.e. that the WLAN_STA_PS_STA flag isn't set)
 * we process a received frame with PM=1, setting the flag again
 * ieee80211_sta_ps_deliver_wakeup() runs, delivering all frames
   to the driver, and then clearing the WLAN_STA_PS_DRIVER and
   WLAN_STA_PS_STA flags

In this scenario, mac80211 will think that the station is awake,
while it really is asleep, and any TX'ed frames should be filtered
by the device (it will know that the station is sleeping) but then
passed to mac80211 again, which will not buffer it either as it
thinks the station is awake, and eventually the packets will be
dropped.

Fix this by moving the clearing of the flags to exactly where we
learn about the situation. This creates a problem of reordering,
so introduce another flag indicating that delivery is being done,
this new flag also queues frames and is cleared only while the
spinlock is held (which the queuing code also holds) so that any
concurrent delivery/TX is handled correctly.

  "mac80211: fix oops on mesh PS broadcast forwarding"
essentially reverted it, because vif.type cannot be AP_VLAN

1d147bfa64 mac80211: fix AP powersave TX vs. wakeup race
There is a race between the TX path and the STA wakeup: while
a station is sleeping, mac80211 buffers frames until it wakes
up, then the frames are transmitted. However, the RX and TX
path are concurrent, so the packet indicating wakeup can be
processed while a packet is being transmitted.

This can lead to a situation where the buffered frames list
is emptied on the one side, while a frame is being added on
the other side, as the station is still seen as sleeping in
the TX path.

As a result, the newly added frame will not be send anytime
soon. It might be sent much later (and out of order) when the
station goes to sleep and wakes up the next time.

Additionally, it can lead to the crash below.

Fix all this by synchronising both paths with a new lock.
Both path are not fastpath since they handle PS situations.

In a later patch we'll remove the extra skb queue locks to
reduce locking overhead.

338f977f4e mac80211: fix fragmentation code, particularly for encryption
The "new" fragmentation code (since my rewrite almost 5 years ago)
erroneously sets skb->len rather than using skb_trim() to adjust
the length of the first fragment after copying out all the others.
This leaves the skb tail pointer pointing to after where the data
originally ended, and thus causes the encryption MIC to be written
at that point, rather than where it belongs: immediately after the
data.

The impact of this is that if software encryption is done, then
 a) encryption doesn't work for the first fragment, the connection
    becomes unusable as the first fragment will never be properly
    verified at the receiver, the MIC is practically guaranteed to
    be wrong
 b) we leak up to 8 bytes of plaintext (!) of the packet out into
    the air

This is only mitigated by the fact that many devices are capable
of doing encryption in hardware, in which case this can't happen
as the tail pointer is irrelevant in that case. Additionally,
fragmentation is not used very frequently and would normally have
to be configured manually.

Fix this by using skb_trim() properly.

any non-data frames for doze->wake transitions, but listens to it in
all frames for wake->doze transitions, both of which are wrong.

66e01cf99e mac80211: only set CSA beacon when at least one beacon must be transmitted
A beacon should never have a Channel Switch Announcement information
element with a count of 0, because a count of 1 means switch just
before the next beacon.  So, if a count of 0 was valid in a beacon, it
would have been transmitted in the next channel already, which is
useless.  A CSA count equal to zero is only meaningful in action
frames or probe_responses.

Fix the ieee80211_csa_is_complete() and ieee80211_update_csa()
functions accordingly.

With a CSA count of 0, we won't transmit any CSA beacons, because the
switch will happen before the next TBTT.  To avoid extra work and
potential confusion in the drivers, complete the CSA immediately,
instead of waiting for the driver to call ieee80211_csa_finish().

To keep things simpler, we also switch immediately when the CSA count
is 1, while in theory we should delay the switch until just before the
next TBTT.

Additionally, move the ieee80211_csa_finish() function to cfg.c,
where it makes more sense.

03c8c06f2d mac80211: reset TX info flags when frame will be reprocessed
The temporary TX info flags need to be cleared if the frame will
be processed through the TX handlers again, otherwise it can get
messed up. This fixes a bug that happened when an aggregation
session was stopped while the station was sleeping - some frames
might get transmitted marked as aggregation erroneously without
this fix.

277d916fc2 mac80211: move "bufferable MMPDU" check to fix AP mode scan
The check needs to apply to both multicast and unicast packets,
otherwise probe requests on AP mode scans are sent through the multicast
buffer queue, which adds long delays (often longer than the scanning
interval).

43552be1da mac80211: update adjusting TBTT bit in beacon
This regression was introduced in "mac80211: cache mesh
beacon".

mesh_sync_offset_adjust_tbtt()  was assuming that the
beacon would be rebuilt in every single pre-tbtt
interrupt, but now the beacon update happens on the
workqueue, and it must be ready for immediate delivery to
the driver.

Save a pointer to the meshconf IE in the beacon_data (this
works because both the IE pointer and beacon buffer are
protected by the same rcu_{dereference,assign_pointer}())
for quick updates during pre-tbtt. This is faster and a
little prettier than iterating over the elements to find
the meshconf IE every time.

This adds generic cipher scheme support to mac80211, such schemes
are fully under control by the driver. On hw registration drivers
may specify additional HW ciphers with a scheme how these ciphers
have to be handled by mac80211 TX/RR. A cipher scheme specifies a
cipher suite value, a size of the security header to be added to
or stripped from frames and how the PN is to be verified on RX.

8fe02e167e cfg80211: consolidate passive-scan and no-ibss flags
These two flags are used for the same purpose, just
combine them into a no-ir flag to annotate no initiating
radiation is allowed.

Old userspace sending either flag will have it treated as
the no-ir flag. To be considerate to older userspace we
also send both the no-ir flag and the old no-ibss flags.
Newer userspace will have to be aware of older kernels.

Update all places in the tree using these flags with the
following semantic patch:

Implement the required procedures for mesh channel switching as defined
in the IEEE Std 802.11-2012 section 10.9.8.4.3 and also handle the CSA
and MCSP elements as followed:
 * Add the function for updating the beacon and probe response frames
   with CSA and MCSP elements during the period of switching to the new
   channel. Both CSA and MCSP elements must be included in beacon and
   probe response frames until the intended channel switch time.
 * The ifmsh->csa_settings is set to NULL and the CSA and MCSP elements
   will then be removed from the beacon or probe response frames once the
   new channel is switched to.

This function adds the channel switch announcement implementation for the
IBSS code. It is triggered by userspace (mac80211/cfg) or by external
channel switch announcement, which have to be adopted. Both CSAs in
beacons and action frames are supported. As for AP mode, the channel
switch is applied after some time. However in IBSS mode, the channel
switch IEs are generated in the kernel.
