* cfg80211: fix channel configuration in IBSS joinAntonio Quartulli2014-02-041-6/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When receiving an IBSS_JOINED event select the BSS object based on the {bssid, channel} couple rather than the bssid only. With the current approach if another cell having the same BSSID (but using a different channel) exists then cfg80211 picks up the wrong BSS object. The result is a mismatching channel configuration between cfg80211 and the driver, that can lead to any sort of problem. The issue can be triggered by having an IBSS sitting on given channel and then asking the driver to create a new cell using the same BSSID but with a different frequency. By passing the channel to cfg80211_get_bss() we can solve this ambiguity and retrieve/create the correct BSS object. All the users of cfg80211_ibss_joined() have been changed accordingly. Moreover WARN when cfg80211_ibss_joined() gets a NULL channel as argument and remove a bogus call of the same function in ath6kl (it does not make sense to call cfg80211_ibss_joined() with a zero BSSID on ibss-leave).

* nl80211: fix scheduled scan RSSI matchset attribute confusionJohannes Berg2014-02-041-5/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The scheduled scan matchsets were intended to be a list of filters, with the found BSS having to pass at least one of them to be passed to the host. When the RSSI attribute was added, however, this was broken and currently wpa_supplicant adds that attribute in its own matchset; however, it doesn't intend that to mean that anything that passes the RSSI filter should be passed to the host, instead it wants it to mean that everything needs to also have higher RSSI. This is semantically problematic because we have a list of filters like [ SSID1, SSID2, SSID3, RSSI ] with no real indication which one should be OR'ed and which one AND'ed. To fix this, move the RSSI filter attribute into each matchset. As we need to stay backward compatible, treat a matchset with only the RSSI attribute as a "default RSSI filter" for all other matchsets, but only if there are other matchsets (an RSSI-only matchset by itself is still desirable.) To make driver implementation easier, keep a global min_rssi_thold for the entire request as well. The only affected driver is ath6kl. I found this when I looked into the code after Raja Mani submitted a patch fixing the n_match_sets calculation to disregard the RSSI, but that patch didn't address the semantic issue.

* | cfg80211: comprehensively check station changesJohannes Berg2013-03-061-3/+5
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The station change API isn't being checked properly before drivers are called, and as a result it is difficult to see what should be allowed and what not. In order to comprehensively check the API parameters parse everything first, and then have the driver call a function (cfg80211_check_station_change()) with the additionally information about the kind of station that is being changed; this allows the function to make better decisions than the old code could. While at it, also add a few checks, particularly in mesh and clarify the TDLS station lifetime in documentation. To be able to reduce a few checks, ignore any flag set bits when the mask isn't set, they shouldn't be applied then. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

The old channel type is of course still supported for HT. Also change the cfg80211 channel definition struct to support these by adding the relevant fields to it (and removing the _type field.) This also adds new helper functions: - cfg80211_chandef_create to create a channel def struct given the control channel and channel type, - cfg80211_chandef_identical to check if two channel definitions are identical - cfg80211_chandef_compatible to check if the given channel definitions are compatible, and return the wider of the two This isn't entirely complete, but that doesn't matter until we have a driver using it.

Right now, this struct contains just the control channel and channel type, but for VHT this will change.

This is the case, as it's used only for P2P operations right now. Rather than adding a flag to tell userspace whether or not it can actually rely on it, simplify all the code by removing the ability to use different channel types. Leave only the validation of the attribute, so that if we extend it again later (with the needed capability flag), it can't break userspace sending invalid data.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch reflects changes in the firmware scheduled scan implementation to behave better in cases with multiple concurrent vifs. Major changes: - scheduled scan filters and state are now programmed per-vif. - decouple scheduled scan from host sleep. To maintain graceful failure with old firmwares, a new firmware capability bit is introduced: ATH6KL_FW_CAPABILITY_SCHED_SCAN_V2. ath6kl simply won't advertise scheduled scan to cfg80211 if the SCHED_SCAN_V2 is not supported. Since firmwares from here on out won't support the previous implicit API for scheduled scan (set WoW filters and host sleep), bump the firmware API to protect old drivers. Unfortunately, due to firmware RAM constraints ath6kl still cannot expect a scan complete event at the end of a scheduled scan results cycle, so the sched_scan_timer is retained.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Only WoW filters for the first vif were being set, causing failures to wake up on any concurrent connected vifs. Handle all per-vif suspend and resume tasks. Since cfg80211 issues user wow filters on a per-wiphy basis, set any custom filters on all connected vifs. Starting WoW in firmware and setting host sleep mode is still handled on a global per-phy level. The first vif is always used for bookkeeping regardless of whether it is connected or not. WoW is cancelled if no connected vifs are found. No firmware capability bits or API bump is needed for this patch, as setting filters for vifs with index > 0 will simply overwrite the index 0 filters in the current implementation. While not correct, this is identical to the existing behavior. kvalo: fix a checkpatch warning in ath6kl_wow_resume() Signed-off-by: Thomas Pedersen <c_tpeder@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@qca.qualcomm.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The next patch will introduce a flag that is set by default in cfg80211 so drivers and mac80211 need to use |= to set features they have so that they don't clear the already-set feature. We could set the flag in wiphy_register() instead of wiphy_new() to avoid this patch, but then the drivers couldn't *unset* flags they don't want to use even though the implementation is generic.

* cfg80211: constify name parameter to add_virtual_intfJohannes Berg2012-09-191-2/+2
| | | | | | | The name can't be modified by the driver, make it const. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
* nl80211: move scan API to wdevJohannes Berg2012-07-121-3/+3
| | | | | | | | The new P2P Device will have to be able to scan for P2P search, so move scanning to use struct wireless_dev instead of struct net_device. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
* cfg80211: use wireless_dev for interface managementJohannes Berg2012-07-121-15/+15
| | | | | | | | In order to be able to create P2P Device wdevs, move the virtual interface management over to wireless_dev structures. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
* cfg80211: use wdev in mgmt-tx/ROC APIsJohannes Berg2012-07-091-11/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | The management frame and remain-on-channel APIs will be needed in the P2P device abstraction, so move them over to the new wdev-based APIs. Userspace can still use both the interface index and wdev identifier for them so it's backward compatible, but for the P2P Device wdev it will be able to use the wdev identifier only.
