After cfg80211 got a P2P Device abstraction, add support to mac80211. Whether it really is supported or not will depend on whether or not the driver has support for it, but mac80211 needs to change to be able to support drivers that need a P2P Device.

In order to support using a different MAC address for the P2P Device address we must first have a P2P Device abstraction that can be assigned a MAC address. This abstraction will also be useful to support offloading P2P operations to the device, e.g. periodic listen for discoverability. Currently, the driver is responsible for assigning a MAC address to the P2P Device, but this could be changed by allowing a MAC address to be given to the NEW_INTERFACE command. As it has no associated netdev, a P2P Device can only be identified by its wdev identifier but the previous patches allowed using the wdev identifier in various APIs, e.g. remain-on-channel.

There's no need to declare the function in the header file since it's only used in a single place, so make it static. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

The channel switch IE has a fixed size, so we can discard it in parsing if it's not the right size and use the right struct pointer. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

Clean up the CSA handling code by moving some of it out of the if and using a C99 initializer for the struct passed to the driver method. While at it, also add a comment that we should wait for a beacon after switching the channel. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

In IBSS it is possible that the supported rates set for a station changes over time (e.g. it gets first initialised as an empty set because of no available information about rates and updated later). In this case the driver has to be notified about the change in order to update its internal table accordingly (if needed). This behaviour is needed by all those drivers that handle rc internally but leave stations management to mac80211 Reported-by: Gui Iribarren <gui@altermundi.net> Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <ordex@autistici.org> [Johannes - add docs, validate IBSS mode only, fix compilation] Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

Use skb_queue_walk_safe instead, and fix a few issues: - didn't free old skbs on moving - didn't react to failed skb alloc - needlessly held a local pointer to the destination frame queue - didn't check destination queue length before adding skb Signed-off-by: Thomas Pedersen <thomas@cozybit.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

Since all we really want is just to iterate over all skbs, do just that and avoid (de)queueing to a clusmy tmpq. Signed-off-by: Thomas Pedersen <thomas@cozybit.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

This could take a while (100ms+) and may delay sending assoc resp in AP mode with WPS or P2P GO (as setting the probe resp takes place there). We've encountered situations where the delay was big enough to cause connection problems with devices like Galaxy Nexus. Switch to using call_rcu with a free handler.

Although adding an IE is almost guaranteed to succeed since we already accounted for its length while allocating the skb, we should still free the skb in case of failure. Signed-off-by: Thomas Pedersen <thomas@cozybit.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

It is not necessary to stop the mesh beacon in the mac80211 ndo_stop handler, since cfg80211 has already left the mesh on NETDEV_GOING_DOWN notification. Also some improvements to ieee80211_stop_mesh(): - flush mpath entries. - flush sta entries per-sdata so we don't remove entries belonging to other vifs on the same hw.

When associating anew, the old station MLME flags should be cleared. The only exception is the 40 MHz disable flag as it might have been set while the channel was set in a previous authentication attempt so it needs to be kept intact. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

Since we only need the band, remove the channel pointer from struct ieee80211_tx_data and also assign it properly, depending on context, to the correct operating or current channel. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

Johannes Berg authored
When sending probe requests, e.g. during software scanning, these will go out on the *current* channel, so their IEs need to be built from the current channel. At other times, e.g. for beacons or probe request templates, the IEs will be used on the *operating* channel and using the current channel instead might result in errors. Add the appropriate parameters to respect the difference. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

There's no need to set up the channel during auth and again during assoc, just do it once. Currently this doesn't result in any changes since calling hw_config() with an unchanged channel will return early, but with the channel context work this has an impact on channel context assignment.

In ieee80211_prep_connection(), the station (if not NULL) is the new station (representing the AP) that needs to be added. Rename the variable to "new_sta" to clarify this. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

Remove the control.sta pointer from ieee80211_tx_info to free up sufficient space in the TX skb control buffer for the upcoming Transmit Power Control (TPC). Instead, the pointer is now on the stack in a new control struct that is passed as a function parameter to the drivers' tx method.

Currently, ps mode is indicated per device (rather than per interface), which doesn't make a lot of sense. Moreover, there are subtle bugs caused by the inability to indicate ps change along with other changes (e.g. when the AP deauth us, we'd like to indicate CHANGED_PS | CHANGED_ASSOC, as changing PS before notifying about disassociation will result in null-packets being sent (if IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC_PS) while the sta is already disconnected.) Keep the current per-device notifications, and add parallel per-vif notifications. In order to keep it simple, the per-device ps and the per-vif ps are orthogonal - the per-vif ps configuration is determined only by the user configuration (enable/disable) and the connection state, and is not affected by other vifs state and (temporary) dynamic_ps/offchannel operations (unlike per-device ps).

This doesn't make any sense since we are expected to be on the medium or at least to Tx only when we are on the right channel and the AP/GO can hear us.

If the HW is monitoring connection loss (as advertised by IEEE80211_HW_CONNECTION_MONITOR) but not filtering beacons (IEEE80211_VIF_BEACON_FILTER) then mac80211 will still start the beacon loss timer and if a few beacons are lost, e.g. due to scanning, drop the connection. If the hardware doesn't advertise connection monitoring, then it won't drop the connection right away but probe the AP, which is intended, but due to the logic in the timer when connection monitoring is done it assumes the connection was actually lost. Fix this problem by not starting the timer when the HW does connection monitoring. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

Pull ext4 updates from Ted Ts'o: "The usual collection of bug fixes and optimizations. Perhaps of greatest note is a speed up for parallel, non-allocating DIO writes, since we no longer take the i_mutex lock in that case. For bug fixes, we fix an incorrect overhead calculation which caused slightly incorrect results for df(1) and statfs(2). We also fixed bugs in the metadata checksum feature." * tag 'ext4_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4: (23 commits) ext4: undo ext4_calc_metadata_amount if we fail to claim space ext4: don't let i_reserved_meta_blocks go negative ext4: fix hole punch failure when depth is greater than 0 ext4: remove unnecessary argument from __ext4_handle_dirty_metadata() ext4: weed out ext4_write_super ext4: remove unnecessary superblock dirtying ext4: convert last user of ext4_mark_super_dirty() to ext4_handle_dirty_super() ext4: remove useless marking of superblock dirty ext4: fix ext4 mismerge back in January ext4: remove dynamic array size in ext4_chksum() ext4: remove unused variable in ext4_update_super() ext4: make quota as first class supported feature ext4: don't take the i_mutex lock when doing DIO overwrites ext4: add a new nolock flag in ext4_map_blocks ext4: split ext4_file_write into buffered IO and direct IO ext4: remove an unused statement in ext4_mb_get_buddy_page_lock() ext4: fix out-of-date comments in extents.c ext4: use s_csum_seed instead of i_csum_seed for xattr block ext4: use proper csum calculation in ext4_rename ext4: fix overhead calculation used by ext4_statfs() ...
