2011-02-07mac80211: fix the skb cloned check in the tx pathFelix Fietkau1-1/+1
Using skb_header_cloned to check if it's safe to write to the skb is not enough - mac80211 also touches the tailroom of the skb. Initially this check was only used to increase a counter, however this commit changed the code to also skip skb data reallocation if no extra head/tailroom was needed: commit 4cd06a344db752f513437138953af191cbe9a691 mac80211: skip unnecessary pskb_expand_head calls It added a regression at least with iwl3945, which is fixed by this patch.

2011-02-02mac80211: fix TX status cookie in HW offload caseJohannes Berg3-2/+9
When the off-channel TX is done with remain-on-channel offloaded to hardware, the reported cookie is wrong as in that case we shouldn't use the SKB as the cookie but need to instead use the corresponding r-o-c cookie (XOR'ed with 2 to prevent API mismatches). Fix this by keeping track of the hw_roc_skb pointer just for the status processing and use the correct cookie to report in this case. We can't use the hw_roc_skb pointer itself because it is NULL'ed when the frame is transmitted to prevent it being used twice. This fixes a bug where the P2P state machine in the supplicant gets stuck because it never gets a correct result for its transmitted frame.

2011-01-25mac80211: fix a crash in ieee80211_beacon_get_tim on change_interfaceFelix Fietkau1-0/+3
Some drivers (e.g. ath9k) do not always disable beacons when they're supposed to. When an interface is changed using the change_interface op, the mode specific sdata part is in an undefined state and trying to get a beacon at this point can produce weird crashes. To fix this, add a check for ieee80211_sdata_running before using anything from the sdata. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: John W.

2011-01-13mac80211: fix lockdep warningJohannes Berg1-1/+11
Since the introduction of the fixes for the reorder timer, mac80211 will cause lockdep warnings because lockdep confuses local->skb_queue and local->rx_skb_queue and treats their lock as the same. However, their locks are different, and are valid in different contexts (the former is used in IRQ context, the latter in BH only) and the only thing to be done is mark the former as a different lock class so that lockdep can tell the difference.

This patch addresses the issue of serialization between the main rx path and various reorder release timers. <http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-wireless/msg57214.html> It converts the previously local "frames" queue into a global rx queue [rx_skb_queue]. This way, everyone (be it the main rx-path or some reorder release timeout) can add frames to it. Only one active rx handler worker [ieee80211_rx_handlers] is needed. All other threads which have lost the race of "runnning_rx_handler" can now simply "return", knowing that the thread who had the "edge" will also take care of their workload.

If there are 2, they are interpreted as Addresses 5 and 6 (Address 4 being the 4th address in the 802.11 header). The address extension used to hold up to 3 addresses instead of the current 2. I'm not sure which draft version changed this, but it is very unlikely that it will change again given the state of the approval process of this draft. See section 7.1.3.6.3 in current draft (8.0). Also, note that the extra address that I'm removing was not being used, so this change has no effect on over-the-air frame formats.

2010-12-16nl80211: Add notification for dropped Deauth/DisassocJouni Malinen1-2/+20
Add a new notification to indicate that a received, unprotected Deauthentication or Disassociation frame was dropped due to management frame protection being in use. This notification is needed to allow user space (e.g., wpa_supplicant) to implement SA Query procedure to recover from association state mismatch between an AP and STA. This is needed to avoid getting stuck in non-working state when MFP (IEEE 802.11w) is used and a protected Deauthentication or Disassociation frame is dropped for any reason. After that, the station would silently discard any unprotected Deauthentication or Disassociation frame that could be indicating that the AP does not have association for the STA (when the Reason Code would be 6 or 7). IEEE Std 802.11w-2009, 11.13 describes this recovery mechanism. Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2010-12-13mac80211 default tx_last_beacon false (congestion)Tim Harvey1-1/+1
The 802.11 spec states that the STA that generated the last Beacon frame shall be the STA that response to a probe request. This is important for congestion reduction when a probe request is received - only 1 node in an adhoc BSS will transmit a response. While mac80211 drivers should provide the tx_last_beacon function to report if they transmitted the last beacon many do not. As an attempt to reduce probe response congestion default this to 0 such that a node not implementing this capability does not contribute to unnecessary congestion. In a modern medium sized office environment I see upwards of 100 probe requests per second received at a given node from various hardware/OS/drivers doing zeroconf 'active probing' as opposed to passively listening for beacons. With a modest 10-node adhoc network consisting of drivers that do not implement this tx_last_beacon feature, I have seen this result in the simultaneous xmit of probe responses accumulating to 500 probe responses per second because of collisions which brings the adhoc network to its knees as well as causes needless congestion.

2010-12-13mac80211: avoid calling ieee80211_work_work unconditionallyHerton Ronaldo Krzesinski1-1/+4
On suspend, there might be usb wireless drivers which wrongly trigger the warning in ieee80211_work_work. If an usb driver doesn't have a suspend hook, the usb stack will disconnect the device. On disconnect, a mac80211 driver calls ieee80211_unregister_hw, which calls dev_close, which calls ieee80211_stop, and in the end calls ieee80211_work_purge-> ieee80211_work_work. The problem is that this call to ieee80211_work_purge comes after mac80211 is suspended, triggering the warning even when we don't have work queued in work_list (the expected case when already suspended), because it always calls ieee80211_work_work. So, just call ieee80211_work_work in ieee80211_work_purge if we really have to abort work.

2010-12-08mac80211: Fix BUG in pskb_expand_head when transmitting shared skbsHelmut Schaa1-3/+18
mac80211 doesn't handle shared skbs correctly at the moment. As a result a possible resize can trigger a BUG in pskb_expand_head.

To avoid copying the skb unnecessarily move the skb_copy call below the checks that don't need write access to the skb. Also, move the assignment of nh_pos and h_pos below the skb_copy to point to the correct skb. It would be possible to avoid another resize of the copied skb by using skb_copy_expand instead of skb_copy but that would make the patch more complex. Also, shared skbs are a corner case right now, so the resize shouldn't matter much.
