2016-05-12cfg80211: make wdev_list accessible to driversJohannes Berg1-1/+1
There's no harm in having drivers read the list, since they can use RCU protection or RTNL locking; allow this to not require each and every driver to also implement its own bookkeeping. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2016-04-12cfg80211: remove enum ieee80211_bandJohannes Berg1-1/+1
This enum is already perfectly aliased to enum nl80211_band, and the only reason for it is that we get IEEE80211_NUM_BANDS out of it. There's no really good reason to not declare the number of bands in nl80211 though, so do that and remove the cfg80211 one. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

Export an RTNL locked version of reg_can_beacon and use it where possible in AP/STA interface type flows, where IR-relaxation may be applicable.

2015-05-06cfg80211: Allow GO concurrent relaxation after BSS disconnectionAvraham Stern1-10/+19
If a P2P GO was allowed on a channel because of the GO concurrent relaxation, i.e., another station interface was associated to an AP on the same channel or the same UNII band, and the station interface disconnected from the AP, allow the following use cases unless the channel is marked as indoor only and the device is not operating in an indoor environment: 1. Allow the P2P GO to stay on its current channel. The rationale behind this is that if the channel or UNII band were allowed by the AP they could still be used to continue the P2P GO operation, and avoid connection breakage. 2. Allow another P2P GO to start on the same channel or another channel that is in the same UNII band as the previous instantiated P2P GO.

2014-12-12cfg80211: Fix 160 MHz channels with 80+80 and 160 MHz driversJouni Malinen1-3/+6
The VHT supported channel width field is a two bit integer, not a bitfield. cfg80211_chandef_usable() was interpreting it incorrectly and ended up rejecting 160 MHz channel width if the driver indicated support for both 160 and 80+80 MHz channels.

2014-11-04cfg80211: 802.11p OCB mode handlingRostislav Lisovy1-0/+8
This patch adds new iface type (NL80211_IFTYPE_OCB) representing the OCB (Outside the Context of a BSS) mode. When establishing a connection to the network a cfg80211_join_ocb function is called (particular nl80211_command is added as well). A mandatory parameters during the ocb_join operation are 'center frequency' and 'channel width (5/10 MHz)'.

2014-04-25cfg80211: Add attributes describing prohibited channel bandwidthRostislav Lisovy1-0/+2
Since there are frequency bands (e.g. 5.9GHz) allowing channels with only 10 or 5 MHz bandwidth, this patch adds attributes that allow keeping track about this information. When channel attributes are reported to user-space, make sure to not break old tools, i.e. if the 'split wiphy dump' is enabled, report the extra attributes (if present) describing the bandwidth restrictions. If the 'split wiphy dump' is not enabled, completely omit those channels that have flags set to either IEEE80211_CHAN_NO_10MHZ or IEEE80211_CHAN_NO_20MHZ.

2014-04-25cfg80211: Fix GO Concurrent relaxation on UNII-3Ilan Peer1-1/+17
At some locations, channels 149-165 are considered a single bundle, while at some other locations, e.g., Indonesia, channels 149-161 are considered a single bundle, while channel 165 belongs to a different bundle. This means that: 1. A station interface connection to an AP on channel 165 allows the instantiation of a P2P GO on channels 149-165. 2. A station interface connection to an AP on channels 149-161 does NOT allow the instantiation of a P2P GO on channel 165. Fix this.

Allow GO operation on a channel marked with IEEE80211_CHAN_GO_CONCURRENT iff there is an active station interface that is associated to an AP operating on the same channel in the 2 GHz band or the same UNII band (in the 5 GHz band). This relaxation is not allowed if the channel is marked with IEEE80211_CHAN_RADAR. Note that this is a permissive approach to the FCC definitions, that require a clear assessment that the device operating the AP is an authorized master, i.e., with radar detection and DFS capabilities. It is assumed that such restrictions are enforced by user space. Furthermore, it is assumed, that if the conditions that allowed for the operation of the GO on such a channel change, i.e., the station interface disconnected from the AP, it is the responsibility of user space to evacuate the GO from the channel.

2013-10-28nl80211/cfg80211: enable DFS for IBSS modeSimon Wunderlich1-1/+2
To use DFS in IBSS mode, userspace is required to react to radar events. It can inform nl80211 that it is capable of doing so by adding a NL80211_ATTR_HANDLE_DFS attribute when joining the IBSS. This attribute is supplied to let the kernelspace know that the userspace application can and will handle radar events, e.g. by intiating channel switches to a valid channel. DFS channels may only be used if this attribute is supplied and the driver supports it. Driver support will be checked even if a channel without DFS will be initially joined, as a DFS channel may be chosen later.

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.

2012-08-20cfg80211: add P2P Device abstractionJohannes Berg1-1/+6
In order to support using a different MAC address for the P2P Device address we must first have a P2P Device abstraction that can be assigned a MAC address. This abstraction will also be useful to support offloading P2P operations to the device, e.g. periodic listen for discoverability. Currently, the driver is responsible for assigning a MAC address to the P2P Device, but this could be changed by allowing a MAC address to be given to the NEW_INTERFACE command. As it has no associated netdev, a P2P Device can only be identified by its wdev identifier but the previous patches allowed using the wdev identifier in various APIs, e.g. remain-on-channel.

Revert commit b78e8ceac23655e1e06b30aa95ab11742d1ac7c0 ("cfg80211: track monitor channel") and remove the set_monitor_enabled() callback. Due to the tracking happening in NETDEV_PRE_UP, it had introduced bugs because the monitor interface callback would be called before the device was started. It looks like there's no way to fix this, and using NETDEV_PRE_UP is broken anyway (since there's no NETDEV_UP_FAIL), so remove all that code, track interfaces in NETDEV_UP and also stop tracking the monitor channel in cfg80211. This mostly reverts to before the tracking, except that we keep the interface count tracking so that setting the monitor channel can be rejected properly.
