2016-11-17wireless: fix bogus maybe-uninitialized warningArnd Bergmann1-4/+4
The hostap_80211_rx() function is supposed to set up the mac addresses for four possible cases, based on two bits of input data. For some reason, gcc decides that it's possible that none of the these four cases apply and the addresses remain uninitialized: drivers/net/wireless/intersil/hostap/hostap_80211_rx.c: In function ‘hostap_80211_rx’: arch/x86/include/asm/string_32.h:77:14: warning: ‘src’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] drivers/net/wireless/intel/ipw2x00/libipw_rx.c: In function ‘libipw_rx’: arch/x86/include/asm/string_32.h:77:14: error: ‘dst’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] arch/x86/include/asm/string_32.h:78:22: error: ‘*((void *)&dst+4)’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] This warning is clearly nonsense, but changing the last case into 'default' makes it obvious to the compiler too, which avoids the warning and probably leads to better object code too. The same code is duplicated several times in the kernel, so this patch uses the same workaround for all copies. The exact configuration was hit only very rarely in randconfig builds and I only saw it in three drivers, but I assume that all of them are potentially affected, and it's better to keep the code consistent.

2016-09-09ath6kl: Allow the radio to report 0 dbm txpower without timing outEric Bentley1-2/+2
The ath6kl driver attempts to get the txpower value from the radio by first clearing the existing stored value and then watching the value to become non-zero. APs allow setting client power to values from -127..127, but this radio is not capable of setting values less then 0 and so will report txpower as 0dbm for both negative and 0 client power values. When the radio has txpower set to 0dbm txpower (equivalent to 1mw) the ath6kl_cfg80211_get_txpower() function will remain in the wait_event_interruptible_timeout() loop waiting for the value to be non-zero, and will eventually timeout. This results in a 5 second delay in response. However, the correct value of zero is eventually returned. The 6004 defaults to 63dbm which is then limited by regulatory and hardware limits with max of 18dbm (6003 max is 16dbm), therefore we can use values larger then these to be able to determine when the value has been updated. To correct the issue, set the value to a nonsensical value (255) and wait for it to change to the valid value. Tested on both 6003 and 6004 based radios. Return value of zero is correctly returned in an expected amount of time (similar to when returning non-zero values) when AP client power is set to both 0 and negative values.

2016-08-04tree-wide: replace config_enabled() with IS_ENABLED()Masahiro Yamada1-1/+1
The use of config_enabled() against config options is ambiguous. In practical terms, config_enabled() is equivalent to IS_BUILTIN(), but the author might have used it for the meaning of IS_ENABLED(). Using IS_ENABLED(), IS_BUILTIN(), IS_MODULE() etc. makes the intention clearer. This commit replaces config_enabled() with IS_ENABLED() where possible. This commit is only touching bool config options. I noticed two cases where config_enabled() is used against a tristate option: - config_enabled(CONFIG_HWMON) [ drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/thermal.c ] - config_enabled(CONFIG_BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE) [ drivers/gpu/drm/gma500/opregion.c ] I did not touch them because they should be converted to IS_BUILTIN() in order to keep the logic, but I was not sure it was the authors' intention.

2016-07-19ath6kl: sme_state shortcut to SME_DISCONNECTED removedDan Kephart1-2/+0
When an NL80211_DISCONNECT is sent to cfg80211, the driver's cfg80211 disconnect function sets the sme_state to SME_DISCONNECTED before receiving a WMI_DISCONNECT_EVENT from the firmware. This caused cfg80211 to not know that the connection is disconnected because the driver fails to notify cfg80211 upon receiving WMI_DISCONNECT_EVENT from the firmware believing it is already disconnected.

2016-07-19ath6kl: Unset IFF_LOWER_UP flag on AP mode leave.Pierre Le Magourou1-0/+1
When disabling tethering after having enabled it, the ath6kl driver does not set the IFF_LOWER_UP flag to 0 (carrier off) on the wlan interface. The upper layers (eg. connman) are not notified of the tethering mode status change. So, tethering can not be activated anymore.

2016-07-19ath6kl: Fix wrong regulatory domain disconnection.Pierre Le Magourou1-1/+2
One minute after a successful connection, the kernel checks if the frequency and the channel width are well configured for the country we are in. (regulatory domain) ath6kl driver was setting the NL80211_CHAN_HT20 channel without checking for the HT capabilities. (we should have NL80211_CHAN_NO_HT in our case because the firmware did not support HT) This patch adds a check on ht_cap.ht_supported in order to create the channel corresponding to the firmware capabilities.

2016-07-19ath6kl: Fix WLAN tethering authentication problem.Pierre Le Magourou1-4/+5
When enabling WLAN tethering, a new AP is visible and a STA could connect to it. When the STA tries to authenticate to the newly created AP, the WPA authentication mechanism is stuck in the 1/4 msg of 4-Way Handshake. In ath6kl_rx(), the ath6kl_find_sta() function is looking for the h_source field of the Ethernet frame header received by the STA. The datap pointer that points to the Ethernet frame header is incorrect, and was pointing at the wrong offset in the buffer. This commit adds a pad_before_data_start offset to set the datap pointer to the Ethernet frame header. datap->h_source parameter is now really pointing to the source ethernet address and the authentication process can continue.

2016-07-06nl80211: support beacon report scanningAvraham Stern1-3/+14
Beacon report radio measurement requires reporting observed BSSs on the channels specified in the beacon request. If the measurement mode is set to passive or active, it requires actually performing a scan (passive or active, accordingly), and reporting the time that the scan was started and the time each beacon/probe was received (both in terms of TSF of the BSS of the requesting AP). If the request mode is table, this information is optional. In addition, the radio measurement request specifies the channel dwell time for the measurement. In order to use scan for beacon report when the mode is active or passive, add a parameter to scan request that specifies the channel dwell time, and add scan start time and beacon received time to scan results information. Supporting beacon report is required for Multi Band Operation (MBO).

2016-03-11ath6kl: ignore WMI_TXE_NOTIFY_EVENTID based on fw capability flagsSteve deRosier1-0/+5
Certain 6004 firmware releases redefine the WMI_TXE_NOTIFY_EVENTID event number and sends the new event frequently. However it doesn't have the tx-err-notify feature and thus this firmware capability flag isn't set on the firmware package. By guarding the processing of this event by the same method we guard the sending of the WMI_SET_TXE_NOTIFY_CMDID command, we can ignore the spurious event that we don't know how to process. Without this change we call cfg80211_cqm_txe_notify() with possibly bad data. Signed-off-by: Steve deRosier <steve.derosier@lairdtech.com> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@qca.qualcomm.com>

2015-10-13cfg80211: Add multiple scan plans for scheduled scanAvraham Stern1-1/+1
Add the option to configure multiple 'scan plans' for scheduled scan. Each 'scan plan' defines the number of scan cycles and the interval between scans. The scan plans are executed in the order they were configured. The last scan plan will always run infinitely and thus defines only the interval between scans. The maximum number of scan plans supported by the device and the maximum number of iterations in a single scan plan are advertised to userspace so it can configure the scan plans appropriately. When scheduled scan results are received there is no way to know which scan plan is being currently executed, so there is no way to know when the next scan iteration will start. This is not a problem, however. The scan start timestamp is only used for flushing old scan results, and there is no difference between flushing all results received until the end of the previous iteration or the start of the current one, since no results will be received in between.

2015-06-09ath6kl: Fix multiple clients associating in AP modeBrent Taylor1-1/+1
When one client is associated and connected to an ar6003 hw version 2.0 with firmware 3.1.1.149, and another client tries to connect, the first client's MAC address is lost in the station list because the "aid" is always "1". The structure "wmi_connect_event" has the "aid" as the second byte in the message, but it should be the first byte.

2015-05-26cfg80211: properly send NL80211_ATTR_DISCONNECTED_BY_AP in disconnectJohannes Berg1-2/+2
When we disconnect from the AP, drivers call cfg80211_disconnect(). This doesn't know whether the disconnection was initiated locally or by the AP though, which can cause problems with the supplicant, for example with WPS. This issue obviously doesn't show up with any mac80211 based driver since mac80211 doesn't call this function. Fix this by requiring drivers to indicate whether the disconnect is locally generated or not. I've tried to update the drivers, but may not have gotten the values correct, and some drivers may currently not be able to report correct values. In case of doubt I left it at false, which is the current behaviour. For libertas, make adjustments as indicated by Dan Williams.

2015-03-30cfg80211: pass name_assign_type to rdev_add_virtual_intf()Tom Gundersen3-4/+7
This will expose in /sys whether the ifname of a device is set by userspace or generated by the kernel. The latter kind (wlanX, etc) is not deterministic, so userspace needs to rename these devices to names that are guaranteed to stay the same between reboots. The former, however should never be renamed, so userspace needs to be able to reliably tell the difference.

2015-03-03cfg80211: add bss_type and privacy arguments in cfg80211_get_bss()Dedy Lansky1-4/+5
802.11ad adds new a network type (PBSS) and changes the capability field interpretation for the DMG (60G) band. The same 2 bits that were interpreted as "ESS" and "IBSS" before are re-used as a 2-bit field with 3 valid values (and 1 reserved). Valid values are: "IBSS", "PBSS" (new) and "AP". In order to get the BSS struct for the new PBSS networks, change the cfg80211_get_bss() function to take a new enum ieee80211_bss_type argument with the valid network types, as "capa_mask" and "capa_val" no longer work correctly (the search must be band-aware now.) The remaining bits in "capa_mask" and "capa_val" are used only for privacy matching so replace those two with a privacy enum as well.

2015-01-15cfg80211: change bandwidth reporting to explicit fieldJohannes Berg1-1/+2
For some reason, we made the bandwidth separate flags, which is rather confusing - a single rate cannot have different bandwidths at the same time. Change this to no longer be flags but use a separate field for the bandwidth ('bw') instead. While at it, add support for 5 and 10 MHz rates - these are reported as regular legacy rates with their real bitrate, but tagged as 5/10 now to make it easier to distinguish them. In the nl80211 API, the flags are preserved, but the code now can also clearly only set a single one of the flags. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2015-01-08cfg80211: remove enum station_info_flagsJohannes Berg2-8/+7
This is really just duplicating the list of information that's already available in the nl80211 attribute, so remove the list. Two small changes are needed: * remove STATION_INFO_ASSOC_REQ_IES complete, but the length (assoc_req_ies_len) can be used instead * add NL80211_STA_INFO_RX_DROP_MISC which exists internally but not in nl80211 yet This gets rid of the duplicate maintenance of the two lists.
