2017-02-09cfg80211: fix NAN bands definitionLuca Coelho2-10/+10
The nl80211_nan_dual_band_conf enumeration doesn't make much sense. The default value is assigned to a bit, which makes it weird if the default bit and other bits are set at the same time. To improve this, get rid of NL80211_NAN_BAND_DEFAULT and add a wiphy configuration to let the drivers define which bands are supported. This is exposed to the userspace, which then can make a decision on which band(s) to use. Additionally, rename all "dual_band" elements to "bands", to make things clearer.

2017-02-08cfg80211: Pass new RSSI level in CQM RSSI notificationAndrzej Zaborowski1-1/+1
Update the drivers to pass the RSSI level as a cfg80211_cqm_rssi_notify parameter and pass this value to userspace in a new nl80211 attribute. This helps both userspace and also helps in the implementation of the multiple RSSI thresholds CQM mechanism. Note for marvell/mwifiex I pass 0 for the RSSI value because the new RSSI value is not available to the driver at the time of the cfg80211_cqm_rssi_notify call, but the driver queries the new value immediately after that, so it is actually available just a moment later if we wanted to defer caling cfg80211_cqm_rssi_notify until that moment. Without this, the new cfg80211 code (patch 3) will call .get_station which will send a duplicate HostCmd_CMD_RSSI_INFO command to the hardware.

Extend ieee80211_cqm_rssi_notify with a rssi_level parameter so that this information can be passed to netlink clients in the next patch, if available. Most drivers will have this value at hand. wl1251 receives events from the firmware that only tell it whether latest measurement is above or below threshold so we don't pass any value at this time (parameter is 0).

2017-02-08mac80211: aes-cmac: switch to shash CMAC driverArd Biesheuvel3-107/+32
Instead of open coding the CMAC algorithm in the mac80211 driver using byte wide xors and calls into the crypto layer for each block of data, instantiate a cmac(aes) synchronous hash and pass all the data into it directly. This does not only simplify the code, it also allows the use of more efficient and more secure implementations, especially on platforms where SIMD ciphers have a considerable setup cost.

2017-02-08mac80211: fils_aead: Use crypto api CMAC shash rather than bare cipherArd Biesheuvel3-45/+34
Switch the FILS AEAD code to use a cmac(aes) shash instantiated by the crypto API rather than reusing the open coded implementation in aes_cmac_vector(). This makes the code more understandable, and allows platforms to implement cmac(aes) in a more secure (*) and efficient way than is typically possible when using the AES cipher directly. So replace the crypto_cipher by a crypto_shash, and update the aes_s2v() routine to call the shash interface directly. * In particular, the generic table based AES implementation is sensitive to known-plaintext timing attacks on the key, to which AES based MAC algorithms are especially vulnerable, given that their plaintext is not usually secret. Time invariant alternatives are available (e.g., based on SIMD algorithms), but may incur a setup cost that is prohibitive when operating on a single block at a time, which is why they don't usually expose the cipher API.

The skcipher could have been of the async variant which may return from skcipher_encrypt() with -EINPROGRESS after having queued the request. The FILS AEAD implementation here does not have code for dealing with that possibility, so allocate a sync cipher explicitly to avoid potential issues with hardware accelerators.

2017-01-13mac80211: prevent skb/txq mismatchMichal Kazior1-10/+7
Station structure is considered as not uploaded (to driver) until drv_sta_state() finishes. This call is however done after the structure is attached to mac80211 internal lists and hashes. This means mac80211 can lookup (and use) station structure before it is uploaded to a driver. If this happens (structure exists, but sta->uploaded is false) fast_tx path can still be taken. Deep in the fastpath call the sta->uploaded is checked against to derive "pubsta" argument for ieee80211_get_txq(). If sta->uploaded is false (and sta is actually non-NULL) ieee80211_get_txq() effectively downgraded to vif->txq. At first glance this may look innocent but coerces mac80211 into a state that is almost guaranteed (codel may drop offending skb) to crash because a station-oriented skb gets queued up on vif-oriented txq. The ieee80211_tx_dequeue() ends up looking at info->control.flags and tries to use txq->sta which in the fail case is NULL. It's probably pointless to pretend one can downgrade skb from sta-txq to vif-txq. Since downgrading unicast traffic to vif->txq must not be done there's no txq to put a frame on if sta->uploaded is false. Therefore the code is made to fall back to regular tx() op path if the described condition is hit. Only drivers using wake_tx_queue were affected.

2017-01-13mac80211: initialize SMPS field in HT capabilitiesFelix Fietkau1-4/+9

This results in HT ibss and mesh setups using only single-stream rates, even though SMPS is not supposed to be active.

2017-01-11mac80211: recalculate min channel width on VHT opmode changesJohannes Berg3-9/+25
When an associated station changes its VHT operating mode this can/will affect the bandwidth it's using, and consequently we must recalculate the minimum bandwidth we need to use. Failure to do so can lead to one of two scenarios: 1) we use a too high bandwidth, this is benign 2) we use a too narrow bandwidth, causing rate control and actual PHY configuration to be out of sync, which can in turn cause problems/crashes Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2017-01-11mac80211: calculate min channel width correctlyJohannes Berg2-3/+2
In the current minimum chandef code there's an issue in that the recalculation can happen after rate control is initialized for a station that has a wider bandwidth than the current chanctx, and then rate control can immediately start using those higher rates which could cause problems. Observe that first of all that this problem is because we don't take non-associated and non-uploaded stations into account. The restriction to non-associated is quite pointless and is one of the causes for the problem described above, since the rate init will happen before the station is set to associated; no frames could actually be sent until associated, but the rate table can already contain higher rates and that might cause problems. Also, rejecting non-uploaded stations is wrong, since the rate control can select higher rates for those as well. Secondly, it's then necessary to recalculate the minimal config before initializing rate control, so that when rate control is initialized, the higher rates are already available. This can be done easily by adding the necessary function call in rate init. Change-Id: Ib9bc02d34797078db55459d196993f39dcd43070 Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2017-01-09mac80211: implement multicast forwarding on fast-RX pathJohannes Berg1-8/+18
In AP (or VLAN) mode, when unicast 802.11 packets are received, they might actually be multicast after conversion. In this case the fast-RX path didn't handle them properly to send them back to the wireless medium. Implement that by copying the SKB and sending it back out. The possible alternative would be to just punt the packet back to the regular (slow) RX path, but since we have almost all of the required code here already it's not so complicated to add here. Punting it back would also mean acquiring the spinlock, which would be bad for the stated purpose of the fast-RX path, to enable well-performing parallel RX.

2016-12-15mac80211: fix legacy and invalid rx-rate reportBen Greear1-6/+8
This fixes obtaining the rate info via sta_set_sinfo when the rx rate is invalid (for instance, on IBSS interface that has received no frames from one of its peers). Also initialize rinfo->flags for legacy rates, to not rely on the whole sinfo being initialized to zero.

2016-12-13mac80211: Remove invalid flag operations in mesh TSF synchronizationMasashi Honma3-15/+0
mesh_sync_offset_adjust_tbtt() implements Extensible synchronization framework ([1] 13.13.2 Extensible synchronization framework). It shall not operate the flag "TBTT Adjusting subfield" ([1] 8.4.2.100.8 Mesh Capability), since it is used only for MBCA ([1] 13.13.4 Mesh beacon collision avoidance, see 13.13.4.4.3 TBTT scanning and adjustment procedures for detail). So this patch remove the flag operations.

2016-12-13mac80211: Suppress NEW_PEER_CANDIDATE event if no roomMasashi Honma1-6/+8
Previously, kernel sends NEW_PEER_CANDIDATE event to user land even if the found peer does not have any room to accept other peer. This causes continuous connection trials. Signed-off-by: Masashi Honma <masashi.honma@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
