cfg80211: use RTNL locked reg_can_beacon for IR-relaxation

2015-07-17T13:02:02+00:00

The RTNL is required to check for IR-relaxation conditions that allow
more channels to beacon. Export an RTNL locked version of reg_can_beacon
and use it where possible in AP/STA interface type flows, where
IR-relaxation may be applicable.

mac80211: convert HW flags to unsigned long bitmap

2015-06-10T14:05:36+00:00

As we're running out of hardware capability flags pretty quickly,
convert them to use the regular test_bit() style unsigned long
bitmaps.

This introduces a number of helper functions/macros to set and to
test the bits, along with new debugfs code.

The occurrences of an explicit __clear_bit() are intentional, the
drivers were never supposed to change their supported bits on the
fly. We should investigate changing this to be a per-frame flag.

mac80211: remove short slot/short preamble incapable flags

2015-06-02T18:28:58+00:00

There are no drivers setting IEEE80211_HW_2GHZ_SHORT_SLOT_INCAPABLE
or IEEE80211_HW_2GHZ_SHORT_PREAMBLE_INCAPABLE, so any code using the
two flags is dead; it's also exceedingly unlikely that any new driver
could ever need to set these flags.

The wcn36xx code is almost certainly broken, but this preserves the
previous behaviour.

mac80211: disconnect TDLS stations on STA CSA

2015-05-20T13:14:54+00:00

When a station does a channel switch, it's not well defined what its TDLS
peers would do. Avoid a situation when the local side marks a potentially
disconnected peer as a TDLS peer.
Keeping peers connected through CSA is doubly problematic with the upcoming
TDLS WIDER-BW feature which allows peers to widen the BSS channel. The
new channel transitioned-to might not be compatible and would require
a re-negotiation anyway.

Make sure to disallow new TDLS link during CSA.

mac80211: TDLS: use the BSS chandef for HT/VHT operation IEs

2015-05-11T12:52:15+00:00

The chandef of the current channel context might be wider (though
compatible). The TDLS link cares only about the channel of the BSS.

In addition make sure to specify the VHT operation IE when VHT is supported
on a non-2.4GHz band, as required by IEEE802.11ac-2013. This is not the
same as HT-operation, to be specified only if the BSS doesn't support HT.

cfg/mac80211: add regulatory classes IE during TDLS setup

2015-03-30T08:26:36+00:00

Seems Broadcom TDLS peers (Nexus 5, Xperia Z3) refuse to allow TDLS
connection when channel-switching is supported but the regulatory
classes IE is missing from the setup request.
Add a chandef to reg-class translation function to cfg80211 and use it
to add the required IE during setup. For now add only the current
regulatory class as supported - it is enough to resolve the
compatibility issue.

mac80211: allow TDLS setup code to take wdev lock

2015-03-04T09:34:10+00:00

TDLS off-channel can be allowed in channels marked with GO_CONCURRENT,
provided the device is connected to an AP on the same UNII.
When relaxing the NO-IR requirements for TDLS, we might hit flows in
cfg80211_reg_can_beacon that acquire the wdev lock. Take some measures
to allow this during TDLS setup.
Acquire the RCU read lock later in the flow that invokes
cfg80211_reg_can_beacon.
Avoid taking local->mtx when preparing the setup packet to avoid
circular deadlocks with mac80211 code that is invoked with wdev-mtx
held.

mac80211: tdls: disentangle HT supported conditions

2015-01-23T10:42:14+00:00

These conditions are rather difficult to follow, for example
because "!sta" only exists to not crash in the case that we
don't have a station pointer (WLAN_TDLS_SETUP_REQUEST) in
which the additional condition (peer supports HT) doesn't
actually matter anyway.

Cleaning this up only duplicates two lines of code but makes
the rest far easier to read, so do that.

As a side effect, smatch stops complaining about the lack of
a sta pointer test after the !sta (since the !sta goes away)
