      cfg80211: don't "leak" uncompleted scans · 4a58e7c3
      Eliad Peller authored
      ___cfg80211_scan_done() can be called in some cases
      (e.g. on NETDEV_DOWN) before the low level driver
      notified scan completion (which is indicated by
      passing leak=true).
      
      Clearing rdev->scan_req in this case is buggy, as
      scan_done_wk might have already being queued/running
      (and can't be flushed as it takes rtnl()).
      
      If a new scan will be requested at this stage, the
      scan_done_wk will try freeing it (instead of the
      previous scan), and this will later result in
      a use after free.
      
      Simply remove the "leak" option, and replace it with
      a standard WARN_ON.
      
      An example backtrace after such crash:
      Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address fffffee5
      pgd = c0004000

      mac80211: start_next_roc only if scan was actually running · a2b70e83
      Eliad Peller authored
      On scan completion we try start any pending roc.
      
      However, if scan was just pending (and not actually started)
      there is no point in trying to start the roc, as it might
      have started already.
      
      This solves the following warning:

      mac80211: determine completed scan type by defined ops · 8bd2a248
      Eliad Peller authored
      In some cases, determining the completed scan type was
      done by testing the SCAN_HW_SCANNING flag.
      
      However, this doesn't take care for the case in which
      the hw scan was requested, but hasn't started yet (e.g.
      due to active remain_on_channel).
      
      Replace this test by checking whether ops->hw_scan is
      defined.
      
      This solves the following warning:

      cfg80211: stop sched scan only when needed · 24d584d7
      Barak Bercovitz authored
      cfg80211_leave stops sched scan when any station vif
      is leaving. Add an explicit check and call it only
      when the relevant vif (the one we scan on) is leaving.

      This shouldn't be happening, so warn if it does, since we'd
      then leak a station entry.
