Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan 1478acb392 mac80211: Fix power save in change interface
we found that power save is not getting enabled when we do
change interface in this order STA->IBSS->STA. this is
because ieee80211_setup_sdata clears type-dependent union

Helmut Schaa cf6bb79ad8 mac80211: Use appropriate TID for sending BAR, ADDBA and DELBA frames
Currently BAR, ADDBA and DELBA frames are always sent using AC_VO. If
the TID for which a BA session is established is assigned to a different
queue BAR, ADDBA and DELBA frames can "overtake" frames of the according
BA session.

Hence, always put BA session related frames into the same queue as the
BA sessions data frames.

Johannes Berg 4d33960bf9 mac80211: reduce station management complexity
Now that IBSS no longer needs to insert stations
from atomic context, we can get rid of all the
special cases for that, and even get rid of the
sta_lock (though it needs to stay as tim_lock.)

This makes the station management code much more
straight-forward.

Johannes Berg 8bf11d8d08 mac80211: delay IBSS station insertion
In order to notify drivers and simplify the station
management code, defer IBSS station insertion to a
work item and don't do it directly while receiving
a frame.

This increases the complexity in IBSS a little bit,
but it's pretty straight forward and it allows us
to reduce the station management complexity (next
patch) considerably.

Johannes Berg 29623892e1 mac80211: count authorized stations per BSS
Currently, each AP interface will send multicast
traffic if any interface has a station entry even
if that station entry is allocated only. With the
new station state management we can easily fix it
by adding a counter that counts each authorized
station only and send multicast traffic only when
the correct interface has at least one authorized
station.

Johannes Berg d9a7ddb05e mac80211: refactor station state transitions
Station entries can have various states, the most
important ones being auth, assoc and authorized.
This patch prepares us for telling the driver about
these states, we don't want to confuse drivers with
strange transitions, so with this we enforce that
they move in the right order between them (back and
forth); some transitions might happen before the
driver even knows about the station, but at least
runtime transitions will be ordered correctly.

As a consequence, IBSS and MESH stations will now
have the ASSOC flag set (so they can transition to
AUTHORIZED), and we can get rid of a special case
in TX processing.

When freeing a station, unwind the state so that
other parts of the code (or drivers later) can rely
on the transitions.

Johannes Berg bdd90d5e36 cfg80211: validate nl80211 station handling better
The nl80211 station handling code is a bit messy
and doesn't do a lot of validation. It seems like
this could be an issue for drivers that don't use
mac80211 to validate everything.

As cfg80211 doesn't keep station state, move the
validation of allowing supported_rates to change
for TDLS only in station mode to mac80211.

This patch is an initial implementation for the NFC Logical Link Control
protocol. It's also known as NFC peer to peer mode.
This is a basic implementation as it lacks SDP (services Discovery

Dmitry TARNYAGIN cd6c524e9e mac80211: Do not request FIF_BCN_PRBRESP_PROMISC for HW scan.
ieee80211_configure_filter code used local->scanning as a boolean
value when it was a bit mask. Bits SCAN_COMPLETED, SCAN_ABORTED
should not set FIF_BCN_PRBRESP_PROMISC filter.

SCAN_HW_SCANNING should not set FIF_BCN_PRBRESP_PROMISC either,
as there is no explicit filter configuration request from
scan code. If a driver requires FIF_BCN_PRBRESP_PROMISC mode
during HW scanning, it's up to the driver to temporary enable it.

Similar mistake was fixed also in ieee80211_hw_config (power
configuration code).

Yogesh Ashok Powar 42624d4913 mac80211: Purge A-MPDU TX queues before station destructions
When a station leaves suddenly while ampdu traffic to that station is still
running, there is a possibility that the ampdu pending queues are not freed due
to a race condition leading to memory leaks. In '__sta_info_destroy' when we
attempt to destroy the ampdu sessions in 'ieee80211_sta_tear_down_BA_sessions',
the driver calls 'ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_cb_irqsafe' to delete the ampdu
structures (tid_tx) and splice the pending queues and this job gets queued in
sdata workqueue. However, the sta entry can get destroyed before the above work
gets scheduled and hence the race.

Purging the queues and freeing the tid_tx to avoid the leak. The better solution
would be to fix the race, but that can be taken up in a separate patch.

Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan adbde344dc cfg80211: Fix race in bss timeout
It is quite possible to run into a race in bss timeout where
the drivers see the bss entry just before notifying cfg80211
of a roaming event but it got timed out by the time rdev->event_work
got scehduled from cfg80211_wq. This would result in the following
WARN-ON() along with the failure to notify the user space of
the roaming. The other situation which is happening with ath6kl
that runs into issue is when the driver reports roam to same AP
event where the AP bss entry already got expired. To fix this,
move cfg80211_get_bss() from __cfg80211_roamed() to cfg80211_roamed().

Johannes Berg 15062e6a85 mac80211: fix another race in aggregation start
Emmanuel noticed that when mac80211 stops the queues
for aggregation that can leave a packet pending. This
packet will be given to the driver after the AMPDU
callback, but as a non-aggregated packet which messes
up the sequence number etc.

I also noticed by looking at the code that if packets
are being processed while we clear the WANT_START bit,
they might see it cleared already and queue up on
tid_tx->pending. If the driver then rejects the new
aggregation session we leak the packet.

Fix both of these issues by changing this code to not
stop the queues at all. Instead, let packets queue up
on the tid_tx->pending queue instead of letting them
get to the driver, and add code to recover properly
in case the driver rejects the session.

(The patch looks large because it has to move two
functions to before their new use.)

The HT mode is set by iw (previous patchsets).
The interface is set into the specified HT mode.
HT mode and capabilities are announced in beacons.

If we add a station that uses HT also, the fastest matching HT mode will
be used for transmission. That means if we are using HT40+ and we add a station
running on HT40-, we would transfer at HT20.

If we join an IBSS with HT40, but the secondary channel is not
available, we will fall back into HT20 as well.

Andre Guedes d23264a896 Bluetooth: Add dev_flags to struct hci_dev
This patch adds the dev_flags field to struct hci_dev. This new
flags variable should be used to define flags related to BR/EDR
and/or LE controller itself. It should be used to define flags
which represents states from the controller. The dev_flags is
cleared in case the controller sends a Reset Command Complete
Event to the host.

Also, this patch adds the HCI_LE_SCAN flag which was created to
track if the controller is performing LE scan or not. The flag
is set/cleared when the controller starts/stops scanning.

This is an initial effort to stop using hdev->flags to define
internal flags since it is exported to userspace by an ioctl.

Johannes' patch for "cfg80211: fix regulatory NULL dereference"
broke user regulaotry hints and it did not address the fact that
last_request was left populated even if the previous regulatory
hint was stale due to the wiphy disappearing.

Fix user reguluatory hints by only bailing out if for those
regulatory hints where a request_wiphy is expected. The stale last_request
considerations are addressed through the previous fixes on last_request
where we reset the last_request to a static world regdom request upon
reset_regdomains(). In this case though we further enhance the effect
by simply restoring reguluatory settings completely.

Also, to mitigate congestion, forwarded frames should be dropped if the
outgoing queue was stopped.  This was not correctly implemented as we
were not checking the right queue.  Furthermore, we were dropping frames
that had arrived to their destination if that queue was stopped.

Emmanuel reported that my previous patches to enable
handing all fragments to drivers at once triggered
the warning that the SKB queue wasn't empty. This is
happening when we actually queue up some frames and
don't hand them to the driver (queues are stopped).

The reason for it is that my code that splices the
frame(s) over to the pending queue didn't re-init
the local queue, so skb_queue_empty() was false. Fix
this by using the _init versions of the splicing.

Also, convert the warning to WARN_ON_ONCE.

Nikolay Martynov 285fa6958c mac80211: timeout tx agg sessions in way similar to rx agg sessions
Currently tx aggregation is not being timed out even if timeout is
specified when aggregation is opened. Tx tid stays active until delba
arrives from recipient (i.e. recipient times out tid when it is
inactive).
  The problem with this approach is that delba can get lost in the air
and tx tid will stay perpetually opened on the originator while closed
on recipient thus all data sent via this tid will be lost.
  This patch implements tx tid timeouting in way very similar to rx tid
timeouting.

Emmanuel Grumbach 2a1e0fd175 mac80211: fix race between the AGG SM and the Tx data path
When a packet is supposed to sent be as an a-MPDU, mac80211 sets
IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU to let the driver know. On the other
hand, mac80211 configures the driver for aggregration with the
ampdu_action callback.
There is race between these two mechanisms since the following
scenario can occur when the BA agreement is torn down:

Tx softIRQ	 			drv configuration
==========				=================

check OPERATIONAL bit
Set the TX_CTL_AMPDU bit in the packet

					clear OPERATIONAL bit
					stop Tx AGG
Pass Tx packet to the driver.

In that case the driver would get a packet with TX_CTL_AMPDU set
although it has already been notified that the BA session has been
torn down.

To fix this, we need to synchronize all the Qdisc activity after we
cleared the OPERATIONAL bit. After that step, all the following
packets will be buffered until the driver reports it is ready to get
new packets for this RA / TID. This buffering allows not to run into
another race that would send packets with TX_CTL_AMPDU unset while
the driver hasn't been requested to tear down the BA session yet.

This race occurs in practice and iwlwifi complains with a WARN_ON
when it happens.

Johannes Berg 30be52e44f mac80211: fix RCU warnings in mesh
Sparse RCU checking reports two warnings in the mesh
path table code. These are due to questionable uses of
rcu_dereference.

To fix the first one, get rid of mesh_gate_add() and
just make mesh_path_add_gate() do the correct deref.

To fix the second one, simply remove rcu_dereference()
in mesh_gate_del() -- it already gets a proper pointer
as indicated by the prototype (no __rcu annotation)
and confirmed by the code.

Johannes Berg 11a2a357a9 cfg80211: work around a sparse issue
sparse reports:
net/wireless/util.c:499:30: error: cannot size expression
net/wireless/util.c:503:30: error: cannot size expression

This is evidently due to the EXPORT_SYMBOL() of the
bridge_tunnel_header and rfc1042 header variables.
Move them to the end of the file to work around the
sparse issue. The error itself from sparse can be
ignored safely, but since sparse stops parsing at
errors, other issues after this would go undetected.

Ben Greear ef96a84202 mac80211: Support ht-cap over-rides.
This implements ht-cap over-rides for mac80211 drivers.
HT may be disabled, making an /a/b/g/n station act like an
a/b/g station.  HT40 may be disabled forcing the station to
be HT20 even if the AP and local hardware support HT40.

MAX-AMSDU may be disabled.
AMPDU-Density may be increased.
AMPDU-Factor may be decreased.

This has been successfully tested with ath9k using patched
wpa_supplicant and iw.

Ben Greear 7e7c8926b2 wireless: Support ht-capabilities over-rides.
This allows users to disable features such as HT, HT40,
and to modify the MCS, AMPDU, and AMSDU settings for
drivers that support it.

The MCS, AMPDU, and AMSDU features that may be disabled are
are reported in the phy-info netlink message as a mask.

Attemping to disable features that are not supported will
take no affect, but will not return errors.  This is to aid
backwards compatibility in user-space apps that may not be
clever enough to deal with parsing the the capabilities mask.

This patch only enables the infrastructure.  An additional
patch will enable the feature in mac80211.

Johannes Berg dd76986b0e cfg80211/mac80211: Revert "move information element parsing logic to cfg80211"
No other driver ever ended up using this, and
the commit forgot to move the prototype so no
driver could have used it. Revert it, if any
driver shows up and needs it it can be moved
again, but until then it's more efficient to
have it in mac80211 where the only user is.

Johannes Berg 80b998993d nl80211: make get_vlan logic more common
get_vlan() sets the output parameter even if it
returns an error, which is a bit odd. Instead,
convert it to use ERR_PTR.

Johannes Berg 7c4ef7122c cfg80211: add flags for off-channel capabilities
Currently mac80211 implements these for all devices,
but given restrictions of some devices that isn't
really true, so prepare for being able to remove the
capability for some mac80211 devices.

Johannes Berg f2dc7989bf mac80211: minor cleanup to mesh state locking
First time I tried smatch, and it says:
mesh_hwmp.c +870 mesh_queue_preq(21) error: double lock 'bottom_half:'
mesh_hwmp.c +873 mesh_queue_preq(24) error: double unlock 'bottom_half:'
mesh_hwmp.c +886 mesh_queue_preq(37) error: double unlock 'bottom_half:'

Which is indeed true -- there's no point in disabling BHs
again if we just did that a few lines earlier, so remove.
