* nl80211: Add RSC configuration for new keysJouni Malinen2009-05-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When setting a key with NL80211_CMD_NEW_KEY, we should allow the key sequence number (RSC) to be set in order to allow replay protection to work correctly for group keys. This patch documents this use for nl80211 and adds the couple of missing pieces in nl80211/cfg80211 and mac80211 to support this. In addition, WEXT SIOCSIWENCODEEXT compat processing in cfg80211 is extended to handle the RSC (this was already specified in WEXT, but just not implemented in cfg80211/mac80211).

* nl80211: Add IEEE 802.1X PAE control for station modeJouni Malinen2009-05-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a new NL80211_ATTR_CONTROL_PORT flag for NL80211_CMD_ASSOCIATE to allow user space to indicate that it will control the IEEE 802.1X port in station mode. Previously, mac80211 was always marking the port authorized in station mode. This was enough when drop_unencrypted flag was set. However, drop_unencrypted can currently be controlled only with WEXT and the current nl80211 design does not allow fully secure configuration. Fix this by providing a mechanism for user space to control the IEEE 802.1X port in station mode (i.e., do the same that we are already doing in AP mode).

* nl80211: improve station flags handlingJohannes Berg2009-05-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is currently not possible to modify station flags, but that capability would be very useful. This patch introduces a new nl80211 attribute that contains a set/mask for station flags, and updates the internal API (and mac80211) to mirror that. The new attribute is parsed before falling back to the old so that userspace can specify both (if it can) to work on all kernels.

* nl80211 : Add support for configuring MFPJouni Malinen2009-05-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | NL80211_CMD_ASSOCIATE request must be able to indicate whether management frame protection (IEEE 802.11w) is being used. mac80211 was able to use MFP in client mode only with WEXT, but the new NL80211_ATTR_USE_MFP attribute will allow this to be done with nl80211, too. Since we are currently using nl80211 for MFP only with drivers that use user space SME, only MFP disabled and required values are used. However, the NL80211_ATTR_USE_MFP attribute is an enum that can be extended with MFP optional in the future, if that is needed with some drivers (e.g., if the RSN IE is generated by the driver).

Since these values are stored in struct wiphy, remove the local copy from mac80211 where feasible (frag & rts threshold). The retry limits are currently needed in struct ieee80211_conf, but these could be eventually removed since the driver should have access to the values in struct wiphy.

* cfg80211/nl80211: add IBSS APIJohannes Berg2009-04-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds IBSS API along with (preliminary) wext handlers. The wext handlers can only do IBSS so you need to call them from your own wext handlers if the mode is IBSS. The nl80211 API requires * an SSID * a channel (frequency) for the case that a new IBSS has to be created It optionally supports * a flag to fix the channel * a fixed BSSID The cfg80211 code also takes care to leave the IBSS before the netdev is set down. If wireless extensions are used, it also caches values when the interface is down and instructs the driver to join when the interface is set up.

* nl80211: Add Michael MIC failure eventJouni Malinen2009-04-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Define a new nl80211 event, NL80211_CMD_MICHAEL_MIC_FAILURE, to be used to notify user space about locally detected Michael MIC failures. This matches with the MLME-MICHAELMICFAILURE.indication() primitive. Since we do not actually have TSC in the skb anymore when mac80211_ev_michael_mic_failure() is called, that function is changed to take in the TSC as an optional parameter instead of as a requirement to include the TSC after the hdr field (which we did not really follow). For now, TSC is not included in the events from mac80211, but it could be added at some point. Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
* nl80211: Remove NL80211_CMD_SET_MGMT_EXTRA_IEJouni Malinen2009-03-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The functionality that NL80211_CMD_SET_MGMT_EXTRA_IE provided can now be achieved with cleaner design by adding IE(s) into NL80211_CMD_TRIGGER_SCAN, NL80211_CMD_AUTHENTICATE, NL80211_CMD_ASSOCIATE, NL80211_CMD_DEAUTHENTICATE, and NL80211_CMD_DISASSOCIATE. Since this is a very recently added command and there are no known (or known planned) applications using NL80211_CMD_SET_MGMT_EXTRA_IE and taken into account how much extra complexity it adds to the IE processing we have now (and need to add in the future to fix IE order in couple of frames), it looks like the best option is to just remove the implementation of this command for now. The enum values themselves are left to avoid changing the nl80211 command or attribute numbers. Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <jouni.malinen@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

* nl80211: Add MLME primitives to support external SMEJouni Malinen2009-03-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds new nl80211 commands to allow user space to request authentication and association (and also deauthentication and disassociation). The commands are structured to allow separate authentication and association steps, i.e., the interface between kernel and user space is similar to the MLME SAP interface in IEEE 802.11 standard and an user space application takes the role of the SME. The patch introduces MLME-AUTHENTICATE.request, MLME-{,RE}ASSOCIATE.request, MLME-DEAUTHENTICATE.request, and MLME-DISASSOCIATE.request primitives. The authentication and association commands request the actual operations in two steps (assuming the driver supports this; if not, separate authentication step is skipped; this could end up being a separate "connect" command). The initial implementation for mac80211 uses the current net/mac80211/mlme.c for actual sending and processing of management frames and the new nl80211 commands will just stop the current state machine from moving automatically from authentication to association. Future cleanup may move more of the MLME operations into cfg80211. The goal of this design is to provide more control of authentication and association process to user space without having to move the full MLME implementation. This should be enough to allow IEEE 802.11r FT protocol and 802.11s SAE authentication to be implemented. Obviously, this will also bring the extra benefit of not having to use WEXT for association requests with mac80211. An example implementation of a user space SME using the new nl80211 commands is available for wpa_supplicant. This patch is enough to get IEEE 802.11r FT protocol working with over-the-air mechanism (over-the-DS will need additional MLME primitives for handling the FT Action frames).

* nl80211: Event notifications for MLME eventsJouni Malinen2009-03-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add new nl80211 event notifications (and a new multicast group, "mlme") for informing user space about received and processed Authentication, (Re)Association Response, Deauthentication, and Disassociation frames in station and IBSS modes (i.e., MLME SAP interface primitives MLME-AUTHENTICATE.confirm, MLME-ASSOCIATE.confirm, MLME-REASSOCIATE.confirm, MLME-DEAUTHENTICATE.indicate, and MLME-DISASSOCIATE.indication). The event data is encapsulated as the 802.11 management frame since we already have the frame in that format and it includes all the needed information. This is the initial step in providing MLME SAP interface for authentication and association with nl80211. In other words, kernel code will act as the MLME and a user space application can control it as the SME. Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi> Signed-off-by: John W.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds the new wireless regulatory infrastructure. The main motiviation behind this was to centralize regulatory code as each driver was implementing their own regulatory solution, and to replace the initial centralized code we have where: * only 3 regulatory domains are supported: US, JP and EU * regulatory domains can only be changed through module parameter * all rules were built statically in the kernel We now have support for regulatory domains for many countries and regulatory domains are now queried through a userspace agent through udev allowing distributions to update regulatory rules without updating the kernel. Each driver can regulatory_hint() a regulatory domain based on either their EEPROM mapped regulatory domain value to a respective ISO/IEC 3166-1 country code or pass an internally built regulatory domain. We also add support to let the user set the regulatory domain through userspace in case of faulty EEPROMs to further help compliance. Support for world roaming will be added soon for cards capable of this. For more information see: http://wireless.kernel.org/en/developers/Regulatory/CRDA For now we leave an option to enable the old module parameter, ieee80211_regdom, and to build the 3 old regdomains statically (US, JP and EU). This option is CONFIG_WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY. These old static definitions and the module parameter is being scheduled for removal for 2.6.29. Note that if you use this you won't make use of a world regulatory domain as its pointless. If you leave this option enabled and if CRDA is present and you use US or JP we will try to ask CRDA to update us a regulatory domain for us. Signed-off-by: Luis R.

* cfg80211/nl80211: implement station attribute retrievalJohannes Berg2008-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | After a station is added to the kernel's structures, userspace has to be able to retrieve statistics about that station, especially whether the station was idle and how much bytes were transferred to and from it. This adds the necessary code to nl80211. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [WIRELESS] cfg80211: New wireless config infrastructure.Johannes Berg2007-04-26
This patch creates the core cfg80211 code along with some sysfs bits. This is a stripped down version to allow mac80211 to function, but doesn't include any configuration yet except for creating and removing virtual interfaces. This patch includes the nl80211 header file but it only contains the interface types which the cfg80211 interface for creating virtual interfaces relies on.
