2009-12-04WE: Fix set events not propagatedJean Tourrilhes
I've just noticed that some events are no longer propagated for some wireless drivers. Basically, SET request with a extra payload for driver without commit handler. The fix is pretty simple, see attached. Actually, a few lines below this line, you will see that the event generation for simple SET (iwpoint-less ?) is done properly, and this other event generation does not need fixing.

2009-11-28wireless : use a dedicated workqueue for cfg80211.Alban Browaeys
This patch moves the works cleanup, scan and events to a cfg80211 dedicated workqueue. Platform driver like eeepc-laptop ought to use works to rfkill (as new rfkill does lock in rfkill_unregister and the platform driver is called from rfkill_switch_all which also lock the same mutex). This raise a new issue in itself that the work scheduled by the platform driver to the global worqueue calls wiphy_unregister which flush_work scan and event works (which thus flush works on the global workqueue inside a work on the global workqueue) and also put on hold the wdev_cleanup_work (which prevents the dev_put on netdev thus indefinite Usage count error on wifi device).

2009-11-19mac80211: avoid spurious deauth frames/messagesJohannes Berg
With WEXT, it happens frequently that the SME requests an authentication but then deauthenticates right away because some new parameters came along. Every time this happens we print a deauth message and send a deauth frame, but both of that is rather confusing. Avoid it by aborting the authentication process silently, and telling cfg80211 about that. The patch looks larger than it really is: __cfg80211_auth_remove() is split out from cfg80211_send_auth_timeout(), there's no new code except __cfg80211_auth_canceled() (a one-liner) and the mac80211 bits (7 new lines of code).

2009-11-19cfg80211: disallow bridging managed/adhoc interfacesJohannes Berg
A number of people have tried to add a wireless interface (in managed mode) to a bridge and then complained that it doesn't work. It cannot work, however, because in 802.11 networks all packets need to be acknowledged and as such need to be sent to the right address. Promiscuous doesn't help here. The wireless address format used for these links has only space for three addresses, the * transmitter, which must be equal to the sender (origin) * receiver (on the wireless medium), which is the AP in the case of managed mode * the recipient (destination), which is on the APs local network segment In an IBSS, it is similar, but the receiver and recipient must match and the third address is used as the BSSID. To avoid such mistakes in the future, disallow adding a wireless interface to a bridge. Felix has recently added a four-address mode to the AP and client side that can be used (after negotiating that it is possible, which must happen out-of-band by setting up both sides) for bridging, so allow that case.

2009-11-19cfg80211: introduce capability for 4addr modeJohannes Berg
It's very likely that not many devices will support four-address mode in station or AP mode so introduce capability bits for both modes, set them in mac80211 and check them when userspace tries to use the mode. Also, keep track of 4addr in cfg80211 (wireless_dev) and not in mac80211 any more. mac80211 can also be improved for the VLAN case by not looking at the 4addr flag but maintaining the station pointer for it correctly. However, keep track of use_4addr for station mode in mac80211 to avoid all the derefs. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

2009-11-18cfg80211: Allow reassociation in associated stateJouni Malinen
cfg80211 rejects all association requests when in associated state. This prevents clean roaming within an ESS since one would first need to disassociate before being able to request reassociation. Accept the reassociation request and let the old association to be dropped when the new one is completed. This fixes nl80211-based roaming with the current snapshot version of wpa_supplicant (that has code for requesting reassociation explicitly withthe previous BSSID attribute).

2009-11-13cfg80211: return channel noise via survey APIHolger Schurig
This patch implements the NL80211_CMD_GET_SURVEY command and an get_survey() ops that a driver can implement. The goal of this command is to allow a drivers to report channel survey data (e.g. channel noise, channel occupation). For now, only the mechanism to report back channel noise has been implemented. In future, there will either be a survey-trigger command --- or the existing scan-trigger command will be enhanced. This will allow user-space to request survey for arbitrary channels. Note: any driver that cannot report channel noise should not report any value at all, e.g. made-up -92 dBm. Signed-off-by: Holger Schurig <holgerschurig@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2009-11-11mac80211: implement support for 4-address frames for AP and client modeFelix Fietkau
In some situations it might be useful to run a network with an Access Point and multiple clients, but with each client bridged to a network behind it. For this to work, both the client and the AP need to transmit 4-address frames, containing both source and destination MAC addresses. With this patch, you can configure a client to communicate using only 4-address frames for data traffic. On the AP side you can enable 4-address frames for individual clients by isolating them in separate AP VLANs which are configured in 4-address mode. Such an AP VLAN will be limited to one client only, and this client will be used as the destination for all traffic on its interface, regardless of the destination MAC address in the packet headers. The advantage of this mode compared to regular WDS mode is that it's easier to configure and does not require a static list of peer MAC addresses on any side.

2009-11-02cfg80211: validate scan channelsJohannes Berg
Currently it is possible to request a scan on only disabled channels, which could be problematic for some drivers. Reject such scans, and also ignore disabled channels that are given. This resuls in the scan begin/end event only including channels that are actually used. This makes the mac80211 check for disabled channels superfluous. At the same time, remove the no-IBSS check from mac80211 -- nothing says that we should not find any networks on channels that cannot be used for an IBSS, even when operating in IBSS mode.

We can save a lot of code and pointers in the structs by using debugfs_remove_recursive(). First, change cfg80211 to use debugfs_remove_recursive() so that drivers do not need to clean up any files they added to the per-wiphy debugfs (if and only if they are ok to be accessed until after wiphy_unregister!). Then also make mac80211 use debugfs_remove_recursive() where necessary -- it need not remove per-wiphy files as cfg80211 now removes those, but netdev etc. files still need to be handled but can now be removed without needing struct dentry pointers to all of them.
