2012-07-17mac80211: go out of PS before sending disassocEliad Peller1-6/+11
on disassoc, ieee80211_set_disassoc() goes out of PS before indicating BSS_CHANGED_ASSOC (not sure why this is needed, but some drivers might count on the current behavior). However, it does it after sending the disassoc frame, which results in null-data frame being sent (in order to go out of ps) after we were already sent the disassoc, which is invalid. Fix it by going out of ps before sending the disassoc. Signed-off-by: Eliad Peller <eliad@wizery.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2012-07-17mac80211: fix tx-mgmt cookie value being left uninitializedNicolas Cavallari1-0/+1
commit "mac80211: unify SW/offload remain-on-channel" moved the cookie assignment from ieee80211_mgmt_tx() to ieee80211_start_roc_work(). But the latter is only called where offchannel is needed. If offchannel isn't needed/used, a uninitialized cookie value would be returned to userspace. This patch sets the cookie value when offchannel isn't used.

2012-07-13cfg80211/mac80211: re-add get_channel operationJohannes Berg1-0/+11
This essentially reverts commit 2e165b818456 but introduces the get_channel operation with a new wireless_dev argument so that you can retrieve the channel per interface. This is necessary as even though we can track all interface channels (except monitor) we can't track the channel type used. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2012-07-12minstrel_ht: enable frame aggregation for fixed rateSylvain Roger Rieunier1-2/+6
When sample_idx is set to a value other than -1 it activates the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_RATE_CTRL_PROBE flag which disables frame aggregation.

2012-07-12mac80211: tx: do not drop non-robust mgmt to non-MFP stas.Nicolas Cavallari1-0/+3
When drop_unencrypted is enabled and MFP is disabled, non-robust management frames for not-yet associated STA are dropped. This isn't visible as many management frames sent from the kernel have TX_INTFL_DONT_ENCRYPT set and management frames injected from a monitor vif have TX_CTL_INJECTED so aren't dropped. But management frames sent from userspace via NL80211_CMD_FRAME do not have this flag set, so are dropped. This patch make it always accept non-robust management frames.

2012-07-12mac80211: add time synchronisation with BSS for assocJohannes Berg4-10/+16
Some drivers (iwlegacy, iwlwifi and rt2x00) today use the bss_conf.last_tsf value. By itself though that value is completely worthless since it may be ancient. What really is needed is synchronisation between some device time and the TSF. To clarify this, rename bss_conf.last_tsf to sync_tsf and add sync_device_ts which is obtained from rx_status which gets a new field device_timestamp for this purpose. This is intentionally not using the mactime field since that is used for other things and in IBSS is expected to sync with the IBSS's TSF which isn't necessarily true for the device timestamp. Also, since we have the information and it's useful even before the connection has been established, give all the timing details to the driver before authenticating.

2012-07-12mac80211: redesign scan RXJohannes Berg4-80/+32
Scan receive is rather inefficient when there are multiple virtual interfaces. We iterate all of the virtual interfaces and then notify cfg80211 about each beacon many times. Redesign scan RX to happen before everything else. Then we can also get rid of IEEE80211_RX_IN_SCAN since we don't have to accept frames into the RX handlers for scanning or scheduled scanning any more. Overall, this simplifies the code.

2012-07-12mac80211: track scheduled scan virtual interfaceJohannes Berg4-14/+15

2012-07-12mac80211: make scan_sdata pointer usable with RCUJohannes Berg3-14/+30

If association failed due to internal error (e.g. no supported rates IE), we call ieee80211_destroy_assoc_data() with assoc=true, while we actually reject the association. This results in the BSSID not being zeroed out. After passing assoc=false, we no longer have to call sta_info_destroy_addr() explicitly.

The management frame and remain-on-channel APIs will be needed in the P2P device abstraction, so move them over to the new wdev-based APIs.

Because ieee80211_tx_status in status.c checks if outgoing BlockAck requests have been acked, it is necessary to tell the driver that tx feedback for this sort of frame is important.

Larry (and some others I think) reported that with single-queue drivers mac80211 crashes when waking the queues. This happens because we allocate just a single queue for each virtual interface in case the driver doesn't have at least 4 queues, but the code stopping/waking the virtual interface queues wasn't taking this into account.

2012-07-03mac80211: add TX prepare APIJohannes Berg3-0/+29
Some drivers require setup before being able to send management frames in managed mode, in particular in multi-channel cases. Introduce API to allow the drivers to do such setup while being able to sleep waiting for the setup to finish in the device. This isn't possible inside the TX call since that can't sleep. A future patch may also restructure the TX retry to wait for the driver to report the frame status, as suggested by Arik in http://mid.gmane.org/CA+XVXffKSEL6ZQPQ98x-zO-NL2=TNF1uN==mprRyUmAaRn254g@mail.gmail.com Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
