* cfg80211: introduce critical protocol indication from user-spaceArend van Spriel2013-04-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some protocols need a more reliable connection to complete successful in reasonable time. This patch adds a user-space API to indicate the wireless driver that a critical protocol is about to commence and when it is done, using nl80211 primitives NL80211_CMD_CRIT_PROTOCOL_START and NL80211_CRIT_PROTOCOL_STOP. There can be only on critical protocol session started per registered cfg80211 device. The driver can support this by implementing the cfg80211 callbacks .crit_proto_start() and .crit_proto_stop(). Examples of protocols that can benefit from this are DHCP, EAPOL, APIPA. Exactly how the link can/should be made more reliable is up to the driver. Things to consider are avoid scanning, no multi-channel operations, and alter coexistence schemes.

* cfg80211: move exported event functions into nl80211Johannes Berg2013-03-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the sort of thing gcc's LTO could do, but since we don't have that yet we can also do it manually. The advantage is reduced code, both source and binary, e.g. on x86-64 text data bss dec hex filename 442825 56230 776 499831 7a077 cfg80211.ko (before) 441585 56230 776 498591 79b9f cfg80211.ko (after) a reduction of ~1k. But in order to not complicate the code move only those functions that are simple wrappers, not those that have functionality of their own. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add new NL80211_CMD_RADAR_DETECT, which starts the Channel Availability Check (CAC).

Right now, this struct contains just the control channel and channel type, but for VHT this will change. Also, add a small inline cfg80211_get_chandef_type() so that drivers don't need to use the _type field of the new structure all the time, which will change.

* cfg80211: remove remain-on-channel channel typeJohannes Berg2012-11-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As mwifiex (and mac80211 in the software case) are the only drivers actually implementing remain-on-channel with channel type, userspace can't be relying on it. This is the case, as it's used only for P2P operations right now. Rather than adding a flag to tell userspace whether or not it can actually rely on it, simplify all the code by removing the ability to use different channel types. Leave only the validation of the attribute, so that if we extend it again later (with the needed capability flag), it can't break userspace sending invalid data.

* cfg80211: add P2P Device abstractionJohannes Berg2012-08-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In order to support using a different MAC address for the P2P Device address we must first have a P2P Device abstraction that can be assigned a MAC address. This abstraction will also be useful to support offloading P2P operations to the device, e.g. periodic listen for discoverability. Currently, the driver is responsible for assigning a MAC address to the P2P Device, but this could be changed by allowing a MAC address to be given to the NEW_INTERFACE command. As it has no associated netdev, a P2P Device can only be identified by its wdev identifier but the previous patches allowed using the wdev identifier in various APIs, e.g. remain-on-channel.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To track authenticated state seems to have been a design mistake in cfg80211. It is possible to have out of band authentication (FT), tracking multiple authentications caused more problems than it ever helped, and the implementation in mac80211 is too complex. Remove all this complexity, and let userspace do whatever it wants to, mac80211 can deal with that just fine. Association is still tracked of course, but authentication no longer is. Local auth state changes are thus no longer of value, so ignore them completely. This will also help implement SAE -- asking the driver to do an authentication is now almost equivalent to sending an authentication frame, with the exception of shared key authentication which is still handled completely.

This is needed to avoid getting stuck in non-working state when MFP (IEEE 802.11w) is used and a protected Deauthentication or Disassociation frame is dropped for any reason. After that, the station would silently discard any unprotected Deauthentication or Disassociation frame that could be indicating that the AP does not have association for the STA (when the Reason Code would be 6 or 7).

| | | | | | | | | | Accesses to "wdev->current_bss" must be locked with the wdev lock, which action frame transmission is missing. Cc: stable@kernel.org [2.6.33+] Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
* cfg80211: ignore spurious deauthJohannes Berg2010-07-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Ever since mac80211/drivers are no longer fully in charge of keeping track of the auth status, trying to make them do so will fail. Instead of warning and reporting the deauthentication to userspace, cfg80211 must simply ignore it so that spurious deauthentications, e.g. before starting authentication, aren't seen by userspace as actual deauthentications.
