2017-02-09cfg80211: fix NAN bands definitionLuca Coelho3-17/+37
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 Zaborowski2-6/+14
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.

2017-01-27net: adjust skb->truesize in pskb_expand_head()Eric Dumazet1-2/+0
Slava Shwartsman reported a warning in skb_try_coalesce(), when we detect skb->truesize is completely wrong. In his case, issue came from IPv6 reassembly coping with malicious datagrams, that forced various pskb_may_pull() to reallocate a bigger skb->head than the one allocated by NIC driver before entering GRO layer. Current code does not change skb->truesize, leaving this burden to callers if they care enough. Blindly changing skb->truesize in pskb_expand_head() is not easy, as some producers might track skb->truesize, for example in xmit path for back pressure feedback (sk->sk_wmem_alloc) We can detect the cases where it should be safe to change skb->truesize : 1) skb is not attached to a socket. 2) If it is attached to a socket, destructor is sock_edemux() My audit gave only two callers doing their own skb->truesize manipulation. I had to remove skb parameter in sock_edemux macro when CONFIG_INET is not set to avoid a compile error.

Add support to use a random local address (Address 2 = TA in transmit and the same address in receive functionality) for Public Action frames in order to improve privacy of WLAN clients. Applications fill the random transmit address in the frame buffer in the NL80211_CMD_FRAME command. This can be used only with the drivers that indicate support for random local address by setting the new NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_MGMT_TX_RANDOM_TA and/or NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_MGMT_TX_RANDOM_TA_CONNECTED in ext_features. The driver needs to configure receive behavior to accept frames to the specified random address during the time the frame exchange is pending and such frames need to be acknowledged similarly to frames sent to the local permanent address when this random address functionality is not used.

There is not a valid reason to attempt setting the monitor channel while in managed mode. Since this code path only deals with this mode, remove the code block. Johannes: I'll note that the comment indicated it was for backward compatibility, but the code wasn't functional since switching the monitor channel isn't supported (any more?) when in managed mode, as that mode owns the channel configuration. Additionally, since monitor can't be done on a managed mode interface, this would only have had any effect to start with if a separate monitor interface is present, in which case it's better to change the channel through that anyway, if even possible.

2017-01-09cfg80211: size various nl80211 messages correctlyJohannes Berg1-8/+8
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.) Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

This patch adds a helper for reading that new property and applying limitations of supported channels specified this way. It is used with devices that normally support a wide wireless band but in a given config are limited to some part of it (usually due to board design). For example a dual-band chipset may be able to support one band only because of used antennas. It's also common that tri-band routers have separated radios for lower and higher part of 5 GHz band and it may be impossible to say which is which without a DT info.

2016-12-09cfg80211/mac80211: fix BSS leaks when abandoning assoc attemptsJohannes Berg3-0/+27
When mac80211 abandons an association attempt, it may free all the data structures, but inform cfg80211 and userspace about it only by sending the deauth frame it received, in which case cfg80211 has no link to the BSS struct that was used and will not cfg80211_unhold_bss() it. Fix this by providing a way to inform cfg80211 of this with the BSS entry passed, so that it can clean up properly, and use this ability in the appropriate places in mac80211. This isn't ideal: some code is more or less duplicated and tracing is missing. However, it's a fairly small change and it's thus easier to backport - cleanups can come later.

2016-12-09nl80211: Use different attrs for BSSID and random MAC addr in scan reqVamsi Krishna1-1/+15
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").

All conflicts were simple overlapping changes except perhaps for the Thunder driver. That driver has a change_mtu method explicitly for sending a message to the hardware. If that fails it returns an error. Normally a driver doesn't need an ndo_change_mtu method becuase those are usually just range changes, which are now handled generically. But since this extra operation is needed in the Thunder driver, it has to stay. However, if the message send fails we have to restore the original MTU before the change because the entire call chain expects that if an error is thrown by ndo_change_mtu then the MTU did not change. Therefore code is added to nicvf_change_mtu to remember the original MTU, and to restore it upon nicvf_update_hw_max_frs() failue. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2016-11-18cfg80211: limit scan results cache sizeJohannes Berg2-0/+70
It's possible to make scanning consume almost arbitrary amounts of memory, e.g. by sending beacon frames with random BSSIDs at high rates while somebody is scanning. Limit the number of BSS table entries we're willing to cache to 1000, limiting maximum memory usage to maybe 4-5MB, but lower in practice - that would be the case for having both full-sized beacon and probe response frames for each entry; this seems not possible in practice, so a limit of 1000 entries will likely be closer to 0.5 MB.

For some reason, gcc decides that it's possible that none of the these four cases apply and the addresses remain uninitialized: drivers/net/wireless/intersil/hostap/hostap_80211_rx.c: In function ‘hostap_80211_rx’: arch/x86/include/asm/string_32.h:77:14: warning: ‘src’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] drivers/net/wireless/intel/ipw2x00/libipw_rx.c: In function ‘libipw_rx’: arch/x86/include/asm/string_32.h:77:14: error: ‘dst’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] arch/x86/include/asm/string_32.h:78:22: error: ‘*((void *)&dst+4)’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] This warning is clearly nonsense, but changing the last case into 'default' makes it obvious to the compiler too, which avoids the warning and probably leads to better object code too. The same code is duplicated several times in the kernel, so this patch uses the same workaround for all copies. The exact configuration was hit only very rarely in randconfig builds and I only saw it in three drivers, but I assume that all of them are potentially affected, and it's better to keep the code consistent.

In all families that I found, genl_register_family() is only called from __init functions (some indirectly, in which case I've add __init annotations to clarifly things), so all can actually be marked __ro_after_init. This protects the data structure from accidental corruption. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2016-10-27genetlink: statically initialize familiesJohannes Berg1-16/+17
Instead of providing macros/inline functions to initialize the families, make all users initialize them statically and get rid of the macros. This reduces the kernel code size by about 1.6k on x86-64 (with allyesconfig). Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2016-10-27genetlink: no longer support using static family IDsJohannes Berg1-1/+0
Static family IDs have never really been used, the only use case was the workaround I introduced for those users that assumed their family ID was also their multicast group ID. Additionally, because static family IDs would never be reserved by the generic netlink code, using a relatively low ID would only work for built-in families that can be registered immediately after generic netlink is started, which is basically only the control family (apart from the workaround code, which I also had to add code for so it would reserve those IDs) Thus, anything other than GENL_ID_GENERATE is flawed and luckily not used except in the cases I mentioned. Move those workarounds into a few lines of code, and then get rid of GENL_ID_GENERATE entirely, making it more robust. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2016-10-27genetlink: introduce and use genl_family_attrbuf()Johannes Berg1-26/+25
This helper function allows family implementations to access their family's attrbuf. This gets rid of the attrbuf usage in families, and also adds locking validation, since it's not valid to use the attrbuf with parallel_ops or outside of the dumpit callback.

2016-10-27cfg80211: Add support to update connection parametersvamsi krishna3-0/+70
Add functionality to update the connection parameters when in connected state, so that driver/firmware uses the updated parameters for subsequent roaming. This is for drivers that support internal BSS selection and roaming. The new command does not change the current association state, i.e., it can be used to update IE contents for future (re)associations without causing an immediate disassociation or reassociation with the current BSS. This commit implements the required functionality for updating IEs for (Re)Association Request frame only. Other parameters can be added in future when required.

2016-10-27cfg80211: handle fragmented IEs in splittingJohannes Berg1-3/+22
The IEs "output" can sometimes combine IEs coming from userspace with IEs generated in the kernel - in particular mac80211 does this for association frames. Add support in this code for the 802.11 IE fragmentation. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2016-10-27cfg80211: configure multicast to unicast for AP interfacesMichael Braun3-0/+66
Add the ability to configure if an AP (and associated VLANs) will do multicast-to-unicast conversion for ARP, IPv4 and IPv6 frames (possibly within 802.1Q). If enabled, such frames are to be sent to each station separately, with the DA replaced by their own MAC address rather than the group address. Note that this may break certain expectations of the receiver, such as the ability to drop unicast IP packets received within multicast L2 frames, or the ability to not send ICMP destination unreachable messages for packets received in L2 multicast (which is required, but the receiver can't tell the difference if this new option is enabled.) This also doesn't implement the 802.11 DMS (directed multicast service).
