* cfg80211: don't WARN about two consecutive Country IE hintEmmanuel Grumbach2014-12-121-5/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This can happen and there is no point in added more detection code lower in the stack. Catching these in one single point (cfg80211) is enough. Stop WARNING about this case. This fixes: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=89001 Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Fixes: 2f1c6c572d7b ("cfg80211: process non country IE conflicting first") Signed-off-by: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
* nl80211: check matches array length before acessing itLuciano Coelho2014-12-121-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the userspace passes a malformed sched scan request (or a net detect wowlan configuration) by adding a NL80211_ATTR_SCHED_SCAN_MATCH attribute without any nested matchsets, a NULL pointer dereference will occur. Fix this by checking that we do have matchsets in our array before trying to access it.

Disconnect interfaces acting on these channels, after giving userspace code a grace period to leave them. This mode is currently opt-in, and not all interface operating modes are supported for regulatory-enforcement checks.

This can be misleading though, as the command was also designed to, in the future, support pure 802.11 TSPECs. Expose the WMM-TSPEC feature flag to nl80211 so later we can also expose an 802.11-TSPEC feature flag (if needed) to differentiate the two cases.

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'.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add feature bits to indicate device support for static-smps and dynamic-smps modes.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Userspace might need to know what queues are configured for uapsd (e.g. for setting proper default values in tspecs).

| | * cfg80211: add WMM traffic stream APIJohannes Berg2014-09-113-0/+185
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add nl80211 and driver API to validate, add and delete traffic streams with appropriate settings. The API calls for userspace doing the action frame handshake with the peer, and then allows only to set up the parameters in the driver. To avoid setting up a session only to tear it down again, the validate API is provided, but the real usage later can still fail so userspace must be prepared for that.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's no need to put the values on the stack, just pass a pointer to the data in the nl80211 message.

Dynack is activated passing coverage class equals to -1 to lower drivers and it is automatically disabled setting valid value for coverage class. Define NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_DYN_ACK flag attribute to enable dynack from userspace. In order to activate dynack NL80211_FEATURE_ACKTO_ESTIMATION feature flag must be set by lower drivers to indicate dynack capability.
