| | * | | | | | | | mac80211: Don't set per-BSS QoS for monitor interfacesSujith2010-07-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In AP mode, there is no need to notify the driver about QoS changes for the monitor interface that is created. The warning in ieee80211_bss_info_change_notify() would be hit otherwise.

The reason is that mac80211 passed a freed station pointer to mac80211, because as it happened iwlwifi reset itself while mac80211 was disconnecting from the network. It turns out that we do take care to look up the station pointer in ieee80211_tx_pending_skb, but then don't use it, which obviously is a bug.

| * | | | | | | | | sysfs: add attribute to indicate hw address assignment typeStefan Assmann2010-07-24

This new attribute has the purpose of giving user-space the ability to distinguish between different assignment types of MAC addresses. For example user-space can treat NICs with randomly generated MAC addresses differently than NICs that have permanent (locally assigned) MAC addresses. For the former udev could write a persistent net rule by matching the device path instead of the MAC address. There's also the case of devices that 'steal' MAC addresses from slave devices. In which it is also be beneficial for user-space to be aware of the fact. This patch also introduces a helper function to assist adoption of drivers that generate MAC addresses randomly.

The reason is that the IBSS and station mode code have different locking orders for the cfg80211 wdev lock and the work struct (where "locking" implies running/canceling). Fix this by simply not canceling the work in the IBSS code, it is not necessary since when the REQ_RUN bit is cleared, the work will run without effect if it runs. When the interface is set down, it is flushed anyway, so there's no concern about it running after memory has been invalidated either. This fixes https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16419 Additionally, looking into this I noticed that there's a small window while the IBSS is torn down in which the work may be rescheduled and the REQ_RUN bit be set again after leave() has cleared it when a scan finishes at exactly the same time. Avoid that by setting the ssid_len to zero before clearing REQ_RUN which signals to the scan finish code that this interface is not active.

So if a userspace program uses sysfs uevents to detect new phy devices, and queries nl80211 to get phy info, it can get ENODEV even though the phy exists in sysfs.

However, this is only relevant for station mode, since only then will any device send nullfunc frames and need to know whether they should be QoS frames or not. In other modes, there are (currently) no frames the device is supposed to send. When you now consider virtual interfaces, it becomes apparent that the current mechanism is inadequate since it enables/disables QoS on a global scale, where for nullfunc frames it has to be on a per-interface scale. Due to the above considerations, we can change the way mac80211 advertises the QoS state to drivers to only ever advertise it as "off" in station mode, and make it a per-BSS setting.

This breaks the sta_info_get() lookup in the actual work function, and because of that, aggregation sessions are not established for this STA. Fix this by replacing the sta_info_get call with a call to sta_info_get_bss. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

When enabled, likely candidates among incoming and outgoing network packets are offered to the PHY driver for possible time stamping. When accepted by the PHY driver, incoming packets are deferred for later delivery by the driver. The patch also adds phylib driver methods for the SIOCSHWTSTAMP ioctl and callbacks for transmit and receive time stamping. Drivers may optionally implement these functions.

Defining VLAN 0 makes it almost impossible to communicate with mixed 802.1p and non 802.1p devices on the same network due to arp table issues. - Changed logic to skip vlan specific code in vlan_skb_recv if VLAN is 0 and we have not defined a VLAN with ID 0, but we accept the packet with the encapsulated proto and pass it later to netif_rx. - In the vlan device event handler, added some logic to add VLAN 0 to HW filter in devices that support it (this prevented any traffic in VLAN 0 to reach the stack in e1000e with HW filter under 2.6.35, and probably also with other HW filtered cards, so we fix it here). - In the vlan unregister logic, prevent the elimination of VLAN 0 in devices with HW filter. - The default behaviour is to ignore the VLAN 0 tagging and accept the packet as if it was not tagged, but we can still define a VLAN 0 if desired (so it is backwards compatible).
