The regdom intersection code simply tries intersecting each rule of the source with each rule of the target. Since the resulting intersections are not observed as a whole, this can result in multiple overlapping/duplicate entries. Make the rule addition a bit more smarter, by looking for rules that can be contained within other rules, and adding only extended ones.

Add a flag attribute to use in associations, for tagging the target connection as supporting RRM. It is the responsibility of upper layers to set this flag only if both the underlying device, and the target network indeed support RRM. To be used in ASSOCIATE and CONNECT commands.

Radio Resource Measurement (RRM) is a bundle of features which will require the entire stack to participate. In this patch, the driver is given the opportunity to advertise the device's support for these RRM-related features, using feature flags: 1. Support for Quiet IEs. 2. Support for adding DS Parameter Set IE to probe requests. 3. Support for adding WFA TPC Report IE to probe requests. 4. Support for inserting tx power value to tx-ed packets at a fixed offset. This is used in action frames, such as RRM's Link Measurement Report, where the actual tx power should be reported in the frame.

When starting an offloaded BA session it is unknown what starting sequence number should be used. Using last_seq worked in most cases except after hw restart. When hw restart is requested last_seq is (rightfully so) kept unmodified. This ended up with BA sessions being restarted with an aribtrary BA window values resulting in dropped frames until sequence numbers caught up. Instead of last_seq pick seqno of a first Rxed frame of a given BA session. This fixes stalled traffic after hw restart with offloaded BA sessions (currently only ath10k).

When a device driver is unloaded local->interfaces list is cleared.

There are a few possible cases of where BSS data came from: 1) only a beacon has been received 2) only a probe response has been received 3) the driver didn't report what it received (this happens when using cfg80211_inform_bss[_width]()) 4) both probe response and beacon data has been received Unfortunately, in the userspace API, a few things weren't there: a) there was no way to differentiate cases 1) and 4) above without comparing the data of the IEs b) the TSF was always from the last frame, instead of being exposed for beacon/probe response separately like IEs Fix this by i) exporting a new flag attribute that indicates whether or not probe response data has been received - this addresses (a) ii) exporting a BEACON_TSF attribute that holds the beacon's TSF if a beacon has been received iii) not exporting the beacon attributes in case (3) above as that would just lead userspace into thinking the data actually came from a beacon when that isn't clear To implement this, track inside the IEs struct whether or not it (definitely) came from a beacon.

Header-less cloned skbs with sufficient headroom need not be cloned unless the tailroom is going to be modified. Fix ieee80211_skb_resize so it would only resize cloned skbs if either the header isn't released or the tailroom is going to be modified. Some drivers might have assumed that skbs are never cloned, so add a HW flag that explicitly permits cloned TX skbs. Drivers which do not modify TX skbs should set this flag to avoid copying skbs.

In the cfg80211_rx_mgmt(), parameter @gfp was used for the memory allocation. But, memory get allocated under spin_lock_bh(), this implies atomic context. So, one can't use GFP_KERNEL, only variants with no __GFP_WAIT. Actually, in all occurrences GFP_ATOMIC is used (wil6210 use GFP_KERNEL by mistake), and it should be this way or warning triggered in the memory allocation code. Remove @gfp parameter as no actual choice exist, and use hard coded GFP_ATOMIC for memory allocation.

Fix TCP FRTO logic so that it always notices when snd_una advances, indicating that any RTO after that point will be a new and distinct loss episode. Previously there was a very specific sequence that could cause FRTO to fail to notice a new loss episode had started: (1) RTO timer fires, enter FRTO and retransmit packet 1 in write queue (2) receiver ACKs packet 1 (3) FRTO sends 2 more packets (4) RTO timer fires again (should start a new loss episode) The problem was in step (3) above, where tcp_process_loss() returned early (in the spot marked "Step 2.b"), so that it never got to the logic to clear icsk_retransmits. Thus icsk_retransmits stayed non-zero. Thus in step (4) tcp_enter_loss() would see the non-zero icsk_retransmits, decide that this RTO is not a new episode, and decide not to cut ssthresh and remember the current cwnd and ssthresh for undo. There were two main consequences to the bug that we have observed. First, ssthresh was not decreased in step (4). Second, when there was a series of such FRTO (1-4) sequences that happened to be followed by an FRTO undo, we would restore the cwnd and ssthresh from before the entire series started (instead of the cwnd and ssthresh from before the most recent RTO). This could result in cwnd and ssthresh being restored to values much bigger than the proper values.

tcp_tw_recycle heavily relies on tcp timestamps to build a per-host ordering of incoming connections and teardowns without the need to hold state on a specific quadruple for TCP_TIMEWAIT_LEN, but only for the last measured RTO. To do so, we keep the last seen timestamp in a per-host indexed data structure and verify if the incoming timestamp in a connection request is strictly greater than the saved one during last connection teardown. Thus we can verify later on that no old data packets will be accepted by the new connection. During moving a socket to time-wait state we already verify if timestamps where seen on a connection. Only if that was the case we let the time-wait socket expire after the RTO, otherwise normal TCP_TIMEWAIT_LEN will be used. But we don't verify this on incoming SYN packets. If a connection teardown was less than TCP_PAWS_MSL seconds in the past we cannot guarantee to not accept data packets from an old connection if no timestamps are present. We should drop this SYN packet. This patch closes this loophole. Please note, this patch does not make tcp_tw_recycle in any way more usable but only adds another safety check: Sporadic drops of SYN packets because of reordering in the network or in the socket backlog queues can happen. Users behing NAT trying to connect to a tcp_tw_recycle enabled server can get caught in blackholes and their connection requests may regullary get dropped because hosts behind an address translator don't have synchronized tcp timestamp clocks. tcp_tw_recycle cannot work if peers don't have tcp timestamps enabled. In general, use of tcp_tw_recycle is disadvised.

As of 4fddbf5d ("sit: strictly restrict incoming traffic to tunnel link device"), when looking up a tunnel, tunnel's underlying interface (t->parms.link) is verified to match incoming traffic's ingress device. However the comparison was incorrectly based on skb->dev->iflink. Instead, dev->ifindex should be used, which correctly represents the interface from which the IP stack hands the ipip6 packets. This allows setting up sit tunnels bound to vlan interfaces (otherwise incoming ipip6 traffic on the vlan interface was dropped due to ipip6_tunnel_lookup match failure).

xgene_enet_get_ring_size() returns a negative value in case of an error, but its only caller in xgene_enet_create_desc_ring() currently uses the return value directly as u32. Instead, check for a negative value first and error out in case. Also move the call to xgene_enet_get_ring_size() before devm_kzalloc() so we don't need to free anything in the error path. This fixes the following issue reported by the Coverity Scanner: ** CID 1231336: Improper use of negative value (NEGATIVE_RETURNS) /drivers/net/ethernet/apm/xgene/xgene_enet_main.c: 596 in xgene_enet_create_desc_ring() Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@distanz.ch> Signed-off-by: David S.
