      mac80211: fix fast_tx header alignment · 6fe04128
      Felix Fietkau authored
      The header field is defined as u8[] but also accessed as struct
      ieee80211_hdr. Enforce an alignment of 2 to prevent unnecessary
      unaligned accesses, which can be very harmful for performance on many
      platforms.

      mac80211: mesh: flush mesh paths unconditionally · fe7a7c57
      Bob Copeland authored
      Currently, the mesh paths associated with a nexthop station are cleaned
      up in the following code path:
      
          __sta_info_destroy_part1
          synchronize_net()
          __sta_info_destroy_part2
           -> cleanup_single_sta
             -> mesh_sta_cleanup
               -> mesh_plink_deactivate
                 -> mesh_path_flush_by_nexthop
      
      However, there are a couple of problems here:
      
      1) the paths aren't flushed at all if the MPM is running in userspace
         (e.g. when using wpa_supplicant or authsae)
      
      2) there is no synchronize_rcu between removing the path and readers
         accessing the nexthop, which means the following race is possible:
      
      CPU0                            CPU1
      ~~~~                            ~~~~
                                      sta_info_destroy_part1()
                                      synchronize_net()
      rcu_read_lock()
      mesh_nexthop_resolve()
        mpath = mesh_path_lookup()
                                      [...] -> mesh_path_flush_by_nexthop()
        sta = rcu_dereference(
          mpath->next_hop)
                                      kfree(sta)
        access sta <-- CRASH
      
      Fix both of these by unconditionally flushing paths before destroying
      the sta, and by adding a synchronize_net() after path flush to ensure
      no active readers can still dereference the sta.
      
      Fixes this crash:

      mac80211_hwsim: Add missing check for HWSIM_ATTR_SIGNAL · 62397da5
      Martin Willi authored
      A wmediumd that does not send this attribute causes a NULL pointer
      dereference, as the attribute is accessed even if it does not exist.
      
      The attribute was required but never checked ever since userspace frame
      forwarding has been introduced. The issue gets more problematic once we
      allow wmediumd registration from user namespaces.
