2014-09-03nl80211: clear skb cb before passing to netlinkJohannes Berg1-0/+6
In testmode and vendor command reply/event SKBs we use the skb cb data to store nl80211 parameters between allocation and sending. This causes the code for CONFIG_NETLINK_MMAP to get confused, because it takes ownership of the skb cb data when the SKB is handed off to netlink, and it doesn't explicitly clear it. Clear the skb cb explicitly when we're done and before it gets passed to netlink to avoid this issue.

2014-07-21wireless: fixup genregdb.awk for remove of antenna gain from wireless-regdLuis R. Rodriguez2-13/+28
Since "wireless-regdb: remove antenna gain" was merged in the wireless-regdb tree, the awk script parser has been incompatible with the 'official' regulatory database. This fixes that up. Without this change the max EIRP is set to 0 making 802.11 devices useless. The fragile nature of the awk parser must be replaced, but ideas over how to do that in the most scalable way are being reviewed. In the meantime update the documentation for CFG80211_INTERNAL_REGDB so folks are aware of expectations for now.

Make the lower-level driver responsible for it, which currently only has an effect on mac80211. It will similarly not scale well at that level though, since mac80211 also has many drivers.

2014-05-22cfg80211: allow RSSI compensationEmmanuel Grumbach1-4/+8
Channels in 2.4GHz band overlap, this means that if we send a probe request on channel 1 and then move to channel 2, we will hear the probe response on channel 2. In this case, the RSSI will be lower than if we had heard it on the channel on which it was sent (1 in this case). The firmware / low level driver can parse the channel in the DS IE or HT IE and compensate the RSSI so that it will still have a valid value even if we heard the frame on an adjacent channel. This can be done up to a certain offset. Add this offset as a configuration for the low level driver. A low level driver that can compensate the low RSSI in this case should assign the maximal offset for which the RSSI value is still valid.

2014-04-22cfg80211: fix processing world regdomain when non modularLuis R. Rodriguez1-1/+1
This allows processing of the last regulatory request when we determine its still pending. Without this if a regulatory request failed to get processed by userspace we wouldn't be able to re-process it later. An example situation that can lead to an unprocessed last_request is enabling cfg80211 to be built-in to the kernel, not enabling CFG80211_INTERNAL_REGDB and the CRDA binary not being available at the time the udev rule that kicks of CRDA triggers. In such a situation we want to let some cfg80211 triggers eventually kick CRDA for us again. Without this if the first cycle attempt to kick off CRDA failed we'd be stuck without the ability to change process any further regulatory domains. cfg80211 will trigger re-processing of the regulatory queue whenever schedule_work(&reg_work) is called, currently this happens when: * suspend / resume * disconnect * a beacon hint gets triggered (non DFS 5 GHz AP found) * a regulatory request gets added to the queue We don't have any specific opportunistic late boot triggers to address a late mount of where CRDA resides though, adding that should be done separately through another patch.
