* nl80211: New command for adding extra IE(s) into management framesJouni Malinen2009-01-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A new nl80211 command, NL80211_CMD_SET_MGMT_EXTRA_IE, can be used to add arbitrary IE data into the end of management frames. The interface allows extra IEs to be configured for each management frame subtype, but only some of them (ProbeReq, ProbeResp, Auth, (Re)AssocReq, Deauth, Disassoc) are currently accepted in mac80211 implementation. This makes it easier to implement IEEE 802.11 extensions like WPS and FT that add IE(s) into some management frames. In addition, this can be useful for testing and experimentation purposes.

* mac80211: 802.11w - Optional software CCMP for management framesJouni Malinen2009-01-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | If driver/firmware/hardware does not support CCMP for management frames, it can now request mac80211 to take care of encrypting and decrypting management frames (when MFP is enabled) in software. The will need to add this new IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_SW_MGMT flag when a CCMP key is being configured for TX side and return the undecrypted frames on RX side without RX_FLAG_DECRYPTED flag to use software CCMP for management frames (but hardware for data frames).

* mac80211: 802.11w - Implement Association Comeback processingJouni Malinen2009-01-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When MFP is enabled, the AP does not allow a STA to associate if an existing security association exists without first going through SA Query process. When this happens, the association request is denied with a new status code ("temporarily rejected") ans Association Comeback IE is used to notify when the association may be tried again (i.e., when the SA Query procedure has timed out). Use the comeback time to update the mac80211 client MLME timer for next association attempt to minimize waiting time if association is temporarily rejected.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Okay, here is the first of the five patches. After applying all of them you should be able to build/join huge city mesh networks (e.g. with the OLSR protocol) with the most of the mac80211 wireless drivers by setting a fixed BSSID in the ad hoc mode. (If you found no other bug/problem.) This was not specified in the original standard, but is a widely used de facto standard.
