====================
pull-request: mac80211 2017-07-07
Just got a set of fixes in from Jouni/QCA, all netlink validation
fixes. I assume they ran some kind of checker, but I don't know what
kind :)
Please pull and let me know if there's any problem.

validate_scan_freqs() retrieves frequencies from attributes
nested in the attribute NL80211_ATTR_SCAN_FREQUENCIES with
nla_get_u32(), which reads 4 bytes from each attribute
without validating the size of data received. Attributes
nested in NL80211_ATTR_SCAN_FREQUENCIES don't have an nla policy.
Validate size of each attribute before parsing to avoid potential buffer
overread.

Buffer overread may happen as nl80211_set_station() reads 4 bytes
from the attribute NL80211_ATTR_LOCAL_MESH_POWER_MODE without
validating the size of data received when userspace sends less
than 4 bytes of data with NL80211_ATTR_LOCAL_MESH_POWER_MODE.
Define nla_policy for NL80211_ATTR_LOCAL_MESH_POWER_MODE to avoid
the buffer overread.

If NAN interface is created with NL80211_ATTR_SOCKET_OWNER, the socket
that is used to create the interface is used for all NAN operations and
reporting NAN events.
However, it turns out that sending commands and receiving events on
the same socket is not possible in a completely race-free way:
If the socket buffer is overflowed by the events, the command response
will not be sent. In that case the caller will block forever on recv.
Using non-blocking socket for commands is more complicated and still
the command response or ack may not be received.
So, keep unicasting NAN events to the interface creator, but allow
using a different socket for commands.

Drivers that initiate roaming while being connected to a network that
uses 802.1X authentication need to inform user space if 802.1X
authentication is further required after roaming.
For example, when using the Fast transition protocol, roaming within
the mobility domain does not require new 802.1X authentication, but
roaming to another mobility domain does.
In addition, some drivers may not support 802.1X authentication
(so it has to be done in user space), while other drivers do.
Add a flag to the roaming notification to indicate if user space is
required to do 802.1X authentication after the roaming or not.
This flag will only be used for networks that use 802.1X
authentication. For networks that do not use 802.1X authentication it
is assumed that no further action is required from user space after
the roaming notification.

Let drivers advertise support for station-mode 4-way handshake
offloading with a new NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_4WAY_HANDSHAKE_STA_PSK flag.
Extend use of NL80211_ATTR_PMK attribute indicating it might be passed
as part of NL80211_CMD_CONNECT command, and contain the PSK (which is
the PMK, hence the name.)
The driver/device is assumed to handle the 4-way handshake by
itself in this case (including key derivations, etc.), instead
of relying on the supplicant.

In the case the channel should be switched to one requiring DFS we need
to make sure that userspace will handle radar events when they happen.
For AP mode this is assumed to be the case, as a manager like hostapd
is required. However IBSS and MESH modes can work without further
userspace assistance, so refuse to use DFS channels unless userspace
vouches that it handles DFS.
NOTE: Userspace should have already flagged support earlier during mesh
or IBSS setup. However, this information is not readily accessible
currently.

When joining a mesh network it is not guaranteed that userspace has a
daemon listening for radar events. This is however required for channels
requiring DFS. To flag that userspace will handle radar events, it needs
to set NL80211_ATTR_HANDLE_DFS.
This matches the current mechanism used for IBSS mode.

Since groups 0 and 63 are invalid, we should check for those bits.
Note that the 802.11 spec specifies the *bit* order, but the CPU
doesn't care about bit order since it can't address bits, so it's
always treating BIT(0) as the lowest bit within a byte.

This patch implements the idea to have multiple scheduled scan requests
running concurrently. It mainly illustrates how to deal with the incoming
request from user-space in terms of backward compatibility. In order to
use multiple scheduled scans user-space needs to provide a flag attribute
NL80211_ATTR_SCHED_SCAN_MULTI to indicate support. If not the request is
treated as a legacy scan.
Drivers currently supporting scheduled scan are now indicating they support
a single scheduled scan request. This obsoletes WIPHY_FLAG_SUPPORTS_SCHED_SCAN.

When changing monitor parameters, not setting the MU-MIMO attributes
should mean that they're not changed - it's documented that to turn

Fix this by making the parameters pointers, stop reusing the macaddr

To fix those, change the locking a bit to not be conditional in all those

start with, and fix the buggy error paths. This also let me use sparse

Change the SET CQM command's RSSI threshold attribute to accept any
number of thresholds as a sorted array. The API should be backwards
compatible so that if one s32 threshold value is passed, the old
mechanism is enabled. The netlink event generated is the same in both
cases.
cfg80211 handles an arbitrary number of RSSI thresholds but drivers have
to provide a method (set_cqm_rssi_range_config) that configures a range
set by a high and a low value. Drivers have to call back when the RSSI
goes out of that range and there's no additional event for each time the
range is reconfigured as there was with the current one-threshold API.
This method doesn't have a hysteresis parameter because there's no
benefit to the cfg80211 code from having the hysteresis be handled by
hardware/driver in terms of the number of wakeups. At the same time
it would likely be less consistent between drivers if offloaded or
done in the drivers.

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.

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.

connected state. Firmware scans the medium and reports when it finds a
known BSS which has better RSSI than the current connected BSS. New
attributes to specify the relative RSSI (compared to the current BSS)
are added to the sched scan to implement this.

Currently, this attribute is only fetched on station addition, but
not on station change. Since this info is only present in the assoc
request, with full station state support in the driver it cannot be
present when the station is added.
Thus, add support for changing the VHT opmode on station update if
done before (or while) the station is marked as associated. After
this, ignore it, since it used to be ignored.

Disconnect or deauthenticate when the owning socket is closed if this
flag is supplied to CMD_CONNECT or CMD_ASSOCIATE. This may be used
to ensure userspace daemon doesn't leave an unmanaged connection behind.
In some situations it would be possible to account for that, to some
degree, in the deamon restart code or in the up/down scripts without
the use of this attribute. But there will be systems where the daemon
can go away for varying periods without a warning due to local resource
management.

Ilan reported that sometimes nl80211 messages weren't working if
the frames being transported got very large, which was really a
problem for userspace-to-kernel messages, but prompted me to look
at the code.
Upon review, I found various places where variable-length data is
transported in an nl80211 message but the message isn't allocated
taking that into account. This shouldn't cause any problems since
the frames aren't really that long, apart in one place where two
(possibly very long frames) might not fit.
Fix all the places (that I found) that get variable length data
from the driver and put it into a message to take the length of
the variable data into account. The 100 there is just a safe
constant for the remaining message overhead (it's usually around
50 for most messages.)

A single netlink socket might own multiple interfaces *and* a
scheduled scan request (which might belong to another interface),
so when it goes away both may need to be destroyed.
Remove the schedule_scan_stop indirection to fix this - it's only
needed for interface destruction because of the way this works
right now, with a single work taking care of all interfaces.

A couple of functions used with scan events were named with
term "send" although they were only preparing the the event
message so renamed those.
Also remove nl80211_send_sched_scan_results() in favor of
just calling nl80211_send_sched_scan() with the right value.

There is no need to prevent toggling multicast_to_unicast while
interface is already up. This change simplifies reconfiguration
from hostapd.

The presence of the NL80211_ATTR_SCHED_SCAN_INTERVAL attribute was
checked in nl80211_parse_sched_scan() and
nl80211_parse_sched_scan_plans() which might be a bit redundant
so removing one.

NL80211_ATTR_MAC was used to set both the specific BSSID to be scanned
and the random MAC address to be used when privacy is enabled. When both
the features are enabled, both the BSSID and the local MAC address were
getting same value causing Probe Request frames to go with unintended
DA. Hence, this has been fixed by using a different NL80211_ATTR_BSSID
attribute to set the specific BSSID (which was the more recent addition
in cfg80211) for a scan.
Backwards compatibility with old userspace software is maintained to
some extent by allowing NL80211_ATTR_MAC to be used to set the specific
BSSID when scanning without enabling random MAC address use.
Scanning with random source MAC address was introduced by commit
ad2b26abc157 ("cfg80211: allow drivers to support random MAC addresses
for scan") and the issue was introduced with the addition of the second
user for the same attribute in commit 818965d39177 ("cfg80211: Allow a
scan request for a specific BSSID").
