      mac80211: Re-fix accounting of the tailroom-needed counter · db12847c
      Ido Yariv authored
      When hw acceleration is enabled, the GENERATE_IV or PUT_IV_SPACE flags
      only require headroom space. Therefore, the tailroom-needed counter can
      safely be decremented for most drivers.
      
      The older incarnation of this patch (ca34e3b5) assumed that the above
      holds true for all drivers. As reported by Christopher Chavez and
      researched by Christian Lamparter and Larry Finger, this isn't a valid
      assumption for p54 and cw1200.
      
      Drivers that still require tailroom for ICV/MIC even when HW encryption
      is enabled can use IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_RESERVE_TAILROOM to indicate it.

      mac80211: Fix accounting of multicast frames · 5cf16616
      Sujith Manoharan authored
      Since multicast frames are marked as no-ack, using
      IEEE80211_TX_STAT_ACK to check if they have been
      successfully transmitted by the driver is incorrect
      since a driver can choose to ignore transmission status
      for no-ack frames. This results in incorrect accounting
      for such frames.
      
      To fix this issue, this patch introduces a new flag
      that can be used by drivers to indicate error-free
      transmission of no-ack frames.

      Sujith Manoharan authored
      Move IEEE80211_TX_CTL_PS_RESPONSE to info->control.flags since
      this is used only in the TX path (by ath9k). This frees up
      a bit which can be used for other purposes.

      mac80211: update the channel context after channel switch · 722ddb0d
      Emmanuel Grumbach authored
      When the channel switch has been made, a vif is now using
      the channel context which was reserved. When that happens,
      we need to update the channel context since its parameters
      may change.
      
      I hit a case in which I switched to a 40Mhz channel but the
      reserved channel context was still on 20Mhz. The rate control
      would try to send 40Mhz packets on a 20Mhz channel context and
      that made iwlwifi's firmware unhappy.

      nl80211: check matches array length before acessing it · f89f46cf
      Luciano Coelho authored
      If the userspace passes a malformed sched scan request (or a net
      detect wowlan configuration) by adding a NL80211_ATTR_SCHED_SCAN_MATCH
      attribute without any nested matchsets, a NULL pointer dereference
      will occur.  Fix this by checking that we do have matchsets in our
      array before trying to access it.
