___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 [fffffee5] *pgd=9fdf6821, *pte=00000000, *ppte=00000000 Internal error: Oops: 17 [#1] SMP ARM PC is at cfg80211_scan_done+0x28/0xc4 [cfg80211] LR is at __ieee80211_scan_completed+0xe4/0x2dc [mac80211] [<bf0077b0>] (cfg80211_scan_done+0x28/0xc4 [cfg80211]) [<bf0973d4>] (__ieee80211_scan_completed+0xe4/0x2dc [mac80211]) [<bf0982cc>] (ieee80211_scan_work+0x94/0x4f0 [mac80211]) [<c005fd10>] (process_one_work+0x1b0/0x4a8) [<c0060404>] (worker_thread+0x138/0x37c) [<c0066d70>] (kthread+0xa4/0xb0) Signed-off-by: Eliad Peller <eliad@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

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: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 3552 at net/mac80211/offchannel.c:269 ieee80211_start_next_roc+0x164/0x204 [mac80211]() [<c001cd38>] (unwind_backtrace+0x0/0xf0) [<c00181d0>] (show_stack+0x10/0x14) [<c05c0d8c>] (dump_stack+0x78/0x94) [<c0047c08>] (warn_slowpath_common+0x68/0x8c) [<c0047c48>] (warn_slowpath_null+0x1c/0x24) [<bf4d6660>] (ieee80211_start_next_roc+0x164/0x204 [mac80211]) [<bf4d5a74>] (ieee80211_scan_cancel+0xe8/0x190 [mac80211]) [<bf4df970>] (ieee80211_do_stop+0x63c/0x79c [mac80211]) [<bf4dfae0>] (ieee80211_stop+0x10/0x18 [mac80211]) [<c0504d84>] (__dev_close_many+0x84/0xcc) [<c0504df4>] (__dev_close+0x28/0x3c) [<c0509708>] (__dev_change_flags+0x78/0x144) [<c0509854>] (dev_change_flags+0x10/0x48) [<c055fe3c>] (devinet_ioctl+0x614/0x6d0) [<c04f22a0>] (sock_ioctl+0x5c/0x2a4) [<c0124eb4>] (do_vfs_ioctl+0x7c/0x5d8) [<c012547c>] (SyS_ioctl+0x6c/0x7c) Signed-off-by: Eliad Peller <eliad@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

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: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 3552 at net/mac80211/offchannel.c:156 __ieee80211_scan_completed+0x1b4/0x2dc [mac80211]() [<c001cd38>] (unwind_backtrace+0x0/0xf0) [<c00181d0>] (show_stack+0x10/0x14) [<c05c0d8c>] (dump_stack+0x78/0x94) [<c0047c08>] (warn_slowpath_common+0x68/0x8c) [<c0047c48>] (warn_slowpath_null+0x1c/0x24) [<bf4d4504>] (__ieee80211_scan_completed+0x1b4/0x2dc [mac80211]) [<bf4d5a74>] (ieee80211_scan_cancel+0xe8/0x190 [mac80211]) [<bf4df970>] (ieee80211_do_stop+0x63c/0x79c [mac80211]) [<bf4dfae0>] (ieee80211_stop+0x10/0x18 [mac80211]) [<c0504d84>] (__dev_close_many+0x84/0xcc) [<c0504df4>] (__dev_close+0x28/0x3c) [<c0509708>] (__dev_change_flags+0x78/0x144) [<c0509854>] (dev_change_flags+0x10/0x48) [<c055fe3c>] (devinet_ioctl+0x614/0x6d0) [<c04f22a0>] (sock_ioctl+0x5c/0x2a4) [<c0124eb4>] (do_vfs_ioctl+0x7c/0x5d8) [<c012547c>] (SyS_ioctl+0x6c/0x7c) Signed-off-by: Eliad Peller <eliad@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

Add support for vendor-specific commands to nl80211. This is intended to be used for really vendor-specific functionality that can't be implemented in a generic fashion for any reason. It's *NOT* intended to be used for any normal/generic feature or any optimisations that could be implemented across drivers. Currently, only vendor commands (with replies) are supported, no dump operations or vendor-specific notifications. Also add a function wdev_to_ieee80211_vif() to mac80211 which is needed for mac80211-based drivers wanting to implement any vendor commands. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

The current channel switch code has a potential deadlock: 1) * cfg80211_stop_ap acquires wdev-lock * ieee80211_stop_ap calls cancel_work_sync for the csa_finalize_work, which acquires the associated worker-lock 2) * ieee80211_csa_finalize_work holds the worker-lock when run * it calls cfg80211_ch_switch_notify which will claim the wdev-lock, and also needs to claim the sdata-lock (which is the same as the wdev-lock) to modify the beacons. It is sufficient to just set the channel switch active to false. If the worker is running later, it will find the channel switch to not be active anymore and returns immediately without changing anything. Canceling the worker is done anyway when the interface goes down (ieee80211_do_stop).

The channel switch notification should be sent under the wdev/sdata-lock, preferably in the same moment as the channel change happens, to avoid races by other callers (e.g. start/stop_ap). This also adds the previously missing sdata_lock protection in csa_finalize_work.

The csa finalize worker needs to change the beacon information (for different modes). These are normally protected under rtnl lock, but the csa finalize worker is called by drivers and should not acquire the RTNL lock. Therefore change access protection for beacons to sdata/wdev lock.

The local TSF timer is used to compute the timing offset between mesh peers on beacon reception. However, asking the device for the TSF is not very accurate, so we prefer to use rx->mactime if available. In the latter case, calling drv_get_tsf() just adds more delay into the RX path, so skip it if we can.

ATM minstrel_ht does not check whether a sampling rate is supported. Unsupported rates attempts can trigger when there are holes in bitfields of supported MCSes belonging to the same group (e.g many devices are MCS32 capable without MCS33->39 capable, also we systematically have a hole for CCK rates). Drop any attempts to sample unsupported rates, as suggested by Felix. This is not a problem in minstrel which fills a per STA sample table with only supported rates (though only at init).

ATM, only the first array value returned by get_random_bytes is used. This change moves the call to get_random_bytes from the nested loop it is in to its parent. While at it, replace get_random_bytes with prandom_bytes since PRNs are way enough for the selection process. After this, minstrel_ht reclaims 80 PR-bytes instead of 640 R-bytes. minstrels use sample tables to probe different rates in a randomized manner. minstrel_ht inits one single sample table upon registration (during subsys_initcalls) and minstrel uses one per STA addition in minstrel.

Consecutive MCSes in [8*(NSS-1)->8*NSS[ have the same number NSS of streams (except for MCS32 which is mishandled ATM). ATM minstrel_ht uses MCS_GROUP_RATES in place of this 8 modulus.

Add a new field to ieee80211_chanctx_conf to indicate the min required channel configuration. Tuning to a narrower channel might help reducing the noise level and saving some power. The min required channel definition is the max of all min required channel definitions of the interfaces bound to this channel context. In AP mode, use 20MHz when there are no connected station. When a new station is added/removed, calculate the new max bandwidth supported by any of the stations (e.g. 80MHz when 80MHz and 40MHz stations are connected). In other cases, simply use bss_conf.chandef as the min required chandef. Notify drivers about changes to this field by calling drv_change_chanctx with a new CHANGE_MIN_WIDTH notification.
