There's an issue with the way the RX A-MPDU reorder timer is
deleted that can cause a kernel crash like this:
* tid_rx is removed - call_rcu(ieee80211_free_tid_rx)
* station is destroyed
* reorder timer fires before ieee80211_free_tid_rx() runs,
accessing the station, thus potentially crashing due to
the use-after-free
The station deletion is protected by synchronize_net(), but
that isn't enough -- ieee80211_free_tid_rx() need not have
run when that returns (it deletes the timer.) We could use
rcu_barrier() instead of synchronize_net(), but that's much
more expensive.
Instead, to fix this, add a field tracking that the session
is being deleted. In this case, the only re-arming of the
timer happens with the reorder spinlock held, so make that
code not rearm it if the session is being deleted and also
delete the timer after setting that field. This ensures the
timer cannot fire after ___ieee80211_stop_rx_ba_session()
returns, which fixes the problem.

If the AP is confused and starts doing a CSA to the same channel,
just ignore that request instead of trying to act it out since it
was likely sent in error anyway.
In the case of the bug I was investigating the GO was misbehaving
and sending out a beacon with CSA IEs still included after having
actually done the channel switch.
Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
When a beacon from the AP contains only the ECSA IE, and not a CSA IE
as well, this ECSA IE is not considered for calculating the CRC and
the beacon might be dropped as not being interesting. This is clearly
wrong, it should be handled and the channel switch should be executed.
Fix this by including the ECSA IE ID in the bitmap of interesting IEs.

Since moving the interface combination checks to mac80211, it's
broken because it now only considers interfaces with an assigned
channel context, so for example any interface that isn't active
can still be up, which is clearly an issue; also, in particular
P2P-Device wdevs are an issue since they never have a chanctx.
Fix this by counting running interfaces instead the ones with a
channel context assigned.

Some APs experience problems when working with
U-APSD. Decreasing the probability of that
happening by using legacy mode for all ACs but VO
isn't enough.
Cisco 4410N originally forced us to enable VO by
default only because it treated non-VO ACs as
legacy.
However some APs (notably Netgear R7000) silently
reclassify packets to different ACs. Since u-APSD
ACs require trigger frames for frame retrieval
clients would never see some frames (e.g. ARP
responses) or would fetch them accidentally after
a long time.
It makes little sense to enable u-APSD queues by
default because it needs userspace applications to
be aware of it to actually take advantage of the
possible additional powersavings. Implicitly
depending on driver autotrigger frame support
doesn't make much sense.

The current minstrel_ht rate control behavior is somewhat optimistic in
trying to find optimum TX rate. While this is usually fine for normal
Data frames, there are cases where a more conservative set of retry
parameters would be beneficial to make the connection more robust.
EAPOL frames are critical to the authentication and especially the
EAPOL-Key message 4/4 (the last message in the 4-way handshake) is
important to get through to the AP. If that message is lost, the only
recovery mechanism in many cases is to reassociate with the AP and start
from scratch. This can often be avoided by trying to send the frame with
more conservative rate and/or with more link layer retries.
In most cases, minstrel_ht is currently using the initial EAPOL-Key
frames for probing higher rates and this results in only five link layer
transmission attempts (one at high(ish) MCS and four at MCS0). While
this works with most APs, it looks like there are some deployed APs that
may have issues with the EAPOL frames using HT MCS immediately after
association. Similarly, there may be issues in cases where the signal
strength or radio environment is not good enough to be able to get
frames through even at couple of MCS 0 tries.
The best approach for this would likely to be to reduce the TX rate for
the last rate (3rd rate parameter in the set) to a low basic rate (say,
6 Mbps on 5 GHz and 2 or 5.5 Mbps on 2.4 GHz), but doing that cleanly
requires some more effort. For now, we can start with a simple one-liner
that forces the minimum rate to be used for EAPOL frames similarly how
the TX rate is selected for the IEEE 802.11 Management frames. This does
result in a small extra latency added to the cases where the AP would be
able to receive the higher rate, but taken into account how small number
of EAPOL frames are used, this is likely to be insignificant. A future
optimization in the minstrel_ht design can also allow this patch to be
reverted to get back to the more optimized initial TX rate.
It should also be noted that many drivers that do not use minstrel as
the rate control algorithm are already doing similar workarounds by
forcing the lowest TX rate to be used for EAPOL frames.

The problem is that workers can still be enqueued while we
are quiescing. This leads to situations where the driver is
already suspending and other flows like disassociation are
handled by a worker.

in the worker itself and not only before enqueueing it.

When mac80211 disconnects, it drops all the packets on the
queues. This happens after the net stack has been notified
that we have no link anymore (netif_carrier_off).
netif_carrier_off ensures that no new packets are sent to
xmit() callback, but we might have older packets in the
middle of the Tx path. These packets will land in the
driver's queues after the latter have been flushed.
Synchronize_net() between netif_carrier_off and drv_flush()
will fix this.
Note that we can't call synchronize_net inside

In normal cases (i.e. when we are fully associated), cfg80211 takes
care of removing all the stations before calling suspend in mac80211.
But in the corner case when we suspend during authentication or
association, mac80211 needs to roll back the station states. But we
shouldn't roll back the station states in the suspend function,
because this is taken care of in other parts of the code, except for
WDS interfaces. For AP types of interfaces, cfg80211 takes care of
disconnecting all stations before calling the driver's suspend code.
For station interfaces, this is done in the quiesce code.
For WDS interfaces we still need to do it here, so move the code into

This has the issue that if the hardware enabling fails for some
reason, the software fallback is used, which won't work. This
clearly isn't desirable, the error should be reported and the
key setting refused.
Support this in mac80211 by allowing drivers to set a new HW
flag IEEE80211_HW_SW_CRYPTO_CONTROL, in which case mac80211 will
only allow software fallback if the set_key() method returns 1.
The driver will also need to advertise supported cipher suites
so that mac80211 doesn't advertise any (future) software ciphers
that the driver can't actually do.
While at it, to make it easier to support this, refactor the

When roaming / suspending, it makes no sense to wait until
the transmit queues of the device are empty. In extreme
condition they can be starved (VO saturating the air), but
even in regular cases, it is pointless to delay the roaming
because the low level driver is trying to send packets to
an AP which is far away. We'd rather drop these packets and
let TCP retransmit if needed. This will allow to speed up

When a station disconnects with frames still pending, we clear
the TIM bit, but too late - it's only cleared when the station
is already removed from the driver, and thus the driver can get
confused (and hwsim will loudly complain.)
Fix this by clearing the TIM bit earlier, when the station has
been unlinked but not removed from the driver yet. To do this,
refactor the TIM recalculation to in that case ignore traffic
and simply assume no pending traffic - this is correct for the
disconnected station even though the frames haven't been freed
yet at that point.
This patch isn't needed for current drivers though as they don't
check the station argument to the set_tim() operation and thus
don't really run into the possible confusion.

in these cases, call drivers to obtain statistics and let them

All of the survey data is (currently) per channel anyway,
so having the word "channel" in the name does nothing. In
the next patch I'll introduce global data to the survey,
where the word "channel" is actually confusing.

When hw acceleration is enabled, the GENERATE_IV or PUT_IV_SPACE flags
only require headroom space. Therefore, the tailroom-needed counter can
safely be decremented for most drivers.
The older incarnation of this patch (ca34e3b5) assumed that the above
holds true for all drivers. As reported by Christopher Chavez and
researched by Christian Lamparter and Larry Finger, this isn't a valid
assumption for p54 and cw1200.
Drivers that still require tailroom for ICV/MIC even when HW encryption
is enabled can use IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_RESERVE_TAILROOM to indicate it.

The return value should be initialized to false so that there's a
valid return value when there are no sessions that need work to be
done on them. Luckily, the side effect of using the uninitialized
value is an extra harmless driver call.

The patch "40a11ca mac80211: check if channels allow 80 MHz for VHT
probe requests" considered disabled channels as VHT enabled, and
mistakenly sent out probe-requests with the VHT IE.

This reverts commit ca34e3b5c8.
It turns out that the p54 and cw2100 drivers assume that there's
tailroom even when they don't say they really need it. However,
there's currently no way for them to explicitly say they do need
it, so for now revert this.
This fixes https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=90331.

dot11MulticastTransmittedFrameCount should be updated according
to the DA, which might be different from A1. Checking A1 results
in the counter being 0 in case of station, as to-DS data frames
use A1 for the BSSID.
This behaviour is defined in state machines, specifically in the
sta_tx_dcf_3.1d(10) description of 802.11-2012.
