mac80211: don't send null data packet when not associated

2012-11-09T16:31:47+00:00

On resume or firmware recovery, mac80211 sends a null
data packet to see if the AP is still around and hasn't
disconnected us. However, it always does this even if
it wasn't even connected before, leading to a warning
in the new channel context code. Fix this by checking
that it's associated.

mac80211: use blacklist for duplicate IE check

2012-10-24T15:21:24+00:00

Instead of the current whitelist which accepts duplicates
only for the quiet and vendor IEs, use a blacklist of all
IEs (that we currently parse) that can't be duplicated.

This avoids detecting a beacon as corrupt in the future
when new IEs are added that can be duplicated.

mac80211: use ieee80211_free_txskb in a few more places

2012-10-15T18:45:50+00:00

Free tx status skbs when draining power save buffers, pending frames, or
when tearing down a vif.
Fixes remaining conditions that can lead to hostapd/wpa_supplicant hangs when
running out of socket write memory.

mac80211: change locking around ieee80211_recalc_smps

Make the function acquire the necessary mutex itself
to simplify the callers.

mac80211: move ieee80211_send_deauth_disassoc outside mlme code

2012-09-07T11:50:34+00:00

Move ieee80211_send_deauth_disassoc() to util.c to make it
available for the rest of the mac80211 code.

mac80211: check power constraint IE size when parsing

2012-09-06T15:11:00+00:00

The power constraint IE is always a single byte
so check the size when parsing instead of later.

mac80211: pass channel to ieee80211_send_probe_req

2012-08-20T12:13:45+00:00

In multi-channel scenarios, the channel that we will
transmit a probe request on isn't always the current
channel (which will be NULL anyway) but will instead
be the channel that the AP is on. Pass the channel
to the ieee80211_send_probe_req() function so it can
be used in the different scenarios. The scan code
continues to pass the current channel, of course.

mac80211: support P2P Device abstraction

2012-08-20T11:58:22+00:00

After cfg80211 got a P2P Device abstraction, add
support to mac80211. Whether it really is supported
or not will depend on whether or not the driver has
support for it, but mac80211 needs to change to be
able to support drivers that need a P2P Device.
