|\ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Conflicts: drivers/net/ieee802154/fakehard.c A bug fix went into 'net' for ieee802154/fakehard.c, which is removed in 'net-next'. Add build fix into the merge from Stephen Rothwell in openvswitch, the logging macros take a new initial 'log' argument, a new call was added in 'net' so when we merge that in here we have to explicitly add the new 'log' arg to it else the build fails.

| * mac80211: minstrel_ht: fix a crash in rate sortingFelix Fietkau2014-11-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The commit 5935839ad73583781b8bbe8d91412f6826e218a4 "mac80211: improve minstrel_ht rate sorting by throughput & probability" introduced a crash on rate sorting that occurs when the rate added to the sorting array is faster than all the previous rates. Due to an off-by-one error, it reads the rate index from tp_list[-1], which contains uninitialized stack garbage, and then uses the resulting index for accessing the group rate stats, leading to a crash if the garbage value is big enough.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In TDLS (e.g., TDLS off-channel) there is a requirement for some drivers to supply an unused TID between the AP and the device to the FW, to allow sending PTI requests and to allow the FW to aggregate on a specific TID for better throughput. To ensure that the allocated TID is indeed unused, this patch introduces an API for blocking the driver from TXing on that TID.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For some TDLS channel switch implementations data frames need to be sent by the firmware based on a template. This template should be created by mac80211, and thus needs to properly be built from an 802.3 frame into an 802.11 frame. In addition, the device will need the key information so the select_key handler needs to be run. However, the driver/device will be responsible for all of the crypto encapsulation, as the sequence numbers etc. cannot be built by the host anyway in this case since it's a template to be used multiple times.

* | mac80211: handle RIC data element in reassociation requestJohannes Berg2014-11-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the RIC data element (RDE) is included in the IEs coming from userspace for an association request, its handling is currently broken as any IEs that are contained within it would be split off from it and inserted again after all the IEs that mac80211 generates (e.g. HT, VHT.) To fix this, treat the RIC element specially, and stop after it only when we find something that doesn't actually belong to it. This assumes userspace is actually correctly building it, directly after the fast BSS transition IE and before all the others like extended capabilities. This leaves as a potential problem the case where userspace is building the following IEs: [RDE] [vendor resource description] [vendor non-resource IE] In this case, we'd erroneously consider all three IEs to be part of the RIC data together, and not split them between the two vendor IEs. Unfortunately, it isn't easily possible to distinguish vendor IEs, so this isn't easy to fix. Luckily, this case is rare as normally wpa_supplicant will include an extended capabilities IE in the IEs, and that certainly will break the two vendor IEs apart correctly.

* | mac80211: 802.11p OCB mode supportRostislav Lisovy2014-11-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds 802.11p OCB (Outside the Context of a BSS) mode support. When communicating in OCB mode a mandatory wildcard BSSID (48 '1' bits) is used. The EDCA parameters handling function was changed to support 802.11p specific values. The insertion of a newly discovered STAs is done in the similar way as in the IBSS mode -- through the deferred insertion. The OCB mode uses a periodic 'housekeeping task' for expiration of disconnected STAs (in the similar manner as in the MESH mode). New Kconfig option for verbose OCB debugging outputs is added.

* | cfg80211: 802.11p OCB mode handlingRostislav Lisovy2014-11-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds new iface type (NL80211_IFTYPE_OCB) representing the OCB (Outside the Context of a BSS) mode. When establishing a connection to the network a cfg80211_join_ocb function is called (particular nl80211_command is added as well). A mandatory parameters during the ocb_join operation are 'center frequency' and 'channel width (5/10 MHz)'. Changes done in mac80211 are minimal possible required to avoid many warnings (warning: enumeration value 'NL80211_IFTYPE_OCB' not handled in switch) during compilation. Full functionality (where needed) is added in the following patch. Signed-off-by: Rostislav Lisovy <rostislav.lisovy@fel.cvut.cz> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

* | mac80211: minstrel_ht: do not always skip ht rates vht_only is trueKarl Beldan2014-10-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_MINSTREL_VHT is set, the module param minstrel_vht_only tells minstrel_ht whether to allow the mix of ht rates with vht rates. ATM, minstrel_ht skips ht rates when minstrel_vht_only is true, but it does that even if vht is not supported, which makes the sta rates fallback to legacy as no ht rate gets enabled.

* | mac80211: don't flush when probing the APEmmanuel Grumbach2014-10-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | All the callers of ieee80211_mgd_probe_ap_send return right after they call the flush() callback. This means that calling flush() is uneeded since its meaning is to wait until the queues of the device are empty. Devices that know how to report status on Tx will do so using the regular path (ieee80211_tx_status) and this status will trigger the continuation of the flow of the probe (ieee80211_sta_tx_notify).
