2012-11-23mac80211: disable HT advertising unless AP supports itJohannes Berg1-0/+1
If the AP doesn't support HT, or more importantly if it does but we have to disable it because its IEs are broken, don't advertise HT support in our association request. Otherwise, we configure our channel to be a 20 MHz non-HT channel but the AP might still think we support HT, or even 40 MHz. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2012-11-23mac80211: rename IEEE80211_STA_DISABLE_11N to HTJohannes Berg2-9/+9
Since the 11n spec amendment was rolled into the 2012 version, "11n" no longer makes sense. Use "HT" instead. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2012-11-23mac80211: fix RX chains configurationJohannes Berg1-16/+21
If the driver doesn't support 40 MHz channels, then mac80211 erroneously sets number of RX chains to one although the number of chains is independent of the support for 40 MHz channels. Fix this by checking the 40 MHz support only for the code that sets the 40 MHz channel not the complete HT code block. This also means the HT20 channel type will always be set in the changed code block so there's no need to set it in case we override the AP due to invalid IEs in the probe response/beacon. The indentation is a bit quirky, but I'm rewriting this code for VHT support so this will change again very soon. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2012-11-23mac80211: fix radiotap vendor area skippingJohannes Berg1-4/+7
The radiotap vendor area in the skb head must be skipped and accounted for in a few functions until it is removed. I missed this in my patch, so a few places use this data as though it was the 802.11 header, fix these places.

2012-11-21mac80211: Add debugfs callbacks for station addition/removalSujith Manoharan3-0/+59

2012-11-20mac80211: fix channel context suspend/reconfig handlingJohannes Berg2-3/+56
Sujith reported warnings with suspend/resume due to channel contexts. When I looked into it, I realised that the code was completely broken as it unassigned the channel contexts when suspending, which actually means they are destroyed. Eliad Peller then pointed out that we also need to remove the channel contexts from the driver. When I looked into this, I also noticed that the code isn't handling the virtual monitor interface correctly (if it exists.) Fix this by calling just the driver methods (if they are implemented) instead of using the channel context management code. Also add reconfiguration for the virtual monitor interface.

2012-11-19cfg80211: Add TDLS event to allow drivers to request operationsJouni Malinen4-0/+95
The NL80211_CMD_TDLS_OPER command was previously used only for userspace request for the kernel code to perform TDLS operations. However, there are also cases where the driver may need to request operations from userspace, e.g., when using security on the AP path. Add a new cfg80211 function for generating a TDLS operation event for drivers to request a new link to be set up (NL80211_TDLS_SETUP) or an existing link to be torn down (NL80211_TDLS_TEARDOWN). Drivers can optionally use these events, e.g., based on noticing data traffic being sent to a peer station that is seen with good signal strength.

2012-11-19mac80211: support radiotap vendor namespace RX dataJohannes Berg3-13/+103
In some cases, in particular for experimentation, it can be useful to be able to add vendor namespace data to received frames in addition to the normal radiotap data. Allow doing this through mac80211 by adding fields to the RX status descriptor that describe the data while the data itself is prepended to the frame. Also add some example code to hwsim, but don't enable it because it doesn't use a proper OUI identifier. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2012-11-19mac80211: check add_chanctx callback before use in ieee80211_reconfigArend van Spriel1-4/+6
During testing our mac80211 driver a fatal error occurred which was signalled to mac80211. Upon performing the reconfiguration of the device a WARN_ON was triggered. This warning checked the return value of drv_add_chanctx(). However, this returns -EOPNOTSUPP when the driver does not provide the callback. As the callback is optional better check it is defined before calling drv_add_chanctx(). Signed-off-by: Arend van Spriel <arend@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2012-11-09mac80211: clarify interface iteration and make it configurableJohannes Berg11-45/+90
During hardware restart, all interfaces are iterated even though they haven't been re-added to the driver, document this behaviour. The same also happens during resume, which is even more confusing since all of the interfaces were previously removed from the driver. Make this optional so drivers relying on the current behaviour can still use it, but to let drivers that don't want this behaviour disable it. Also convert all API users, keeping the old semantics except in hwsim, where the new normal ones are desired. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2012-11-09mac80211: call driver method when restart completesJohannes Berg4-1/+24

2012-11-06wireless: add utility function to get P2P attributeJohannes Berg2-0/+118
Parsing the P2P attributes can be tricky as their contents can be split across multiple (vendor) IEs. Thus, it's not possible to parse them like IEs (by returning a pointer to the data.) Instead, provide a function that copies the attribute data into a caller-provided buffer and returns the size needed (useful in case the buffer was too small.)

Instead of using the pointer which can be re-used fairly quickly due to allocator patterns and then makes debugging difficult, maintain a counter and use its value. Since it's a 64-bit value it can't really wrap, but catch that case anyway since it most likely points to a bug somewhere. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2012-10-30mac80211: combine status/drop reportingJohannes Berg1-74/+71
The TX status reporting is done for both the nl80211 report as well as the socket option. The socket option is also reported when an skb is dropped to guarantee that the copy in the IDR tree is freed and status is reported to userspace. However, when a frame is dropped, no nl80211 status is reported. This can cause userspace to stop making progress while waiting for a status notification. Combine the nl80211 and socket option status reporting into a new function and call it in both places -- when the status comes in from the driver and when the skb is dropped. While at it, also simplify the code in the nl80211 portion a bit. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2012-10-30mac80211: handle TX power per virtual interfaceJohannes Berg10-45/+131
Even before channel contexts/multi-channel, having a single global TX power limit was already problematic, in particular if two managed interfaces connected to two APs with different power constraints. The channel context introduction completely broke this though and in fact I had disabled TX power configuration there for drivers using channel contexts. Change everything to track TX power per interface so that different user settings and different channel maxima are treated correctly. Also continue tracking the global TX power though for compatibility with applications that attempt to configure the wiphy's TX power globally. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2012-10-30cfg80211: allow per interface TX power settingJohannes Berg11-32/+56
The TX power setting is currently per wiphy (hardware device) but with multi-channel capabilities that doesn't make much sense any more. Allow drivers (and mac80211) to advertise support for per-interface TX power configuration. When the TX power is configured for the wiphy, the wdev will be NULL and the driver can still handle that, but when a wdev is given the TX power can be set only for that wdev now.

Setting the wdev to NULL when the channel can't be set for that interface type (to treat the channel setting for the wiphy/monitor) currently works, but is confusing in the code if netdev/wdev aren't both set/unset in the same way. Move the check whether the channel can be set to where it's needed so that wdev and netdev are always both assigned or NULL. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2012-10-30mac80211_hwsim: allow using channel contextsJohannes Berg1-100/+390
To use mac80211_hwsim for testing channel contexts it has to support them, and for that it has to support hw scan and hw-remain-on-channel. Since it's pure software, the off-channel activities are really not off-channel but listening and sending on a second channel. Also, the multi-channel isn't really doing TDM, it's just on both channels at the same time. For testing purposes, you can specify the number of concurrent channels with a module parameter, it is set to one by default. When set to two or more, the userspace API for wmediumd is disabled as it has no provisions for multi-channel yet. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
