2012-09-14mac80211: change locking around ieee80211_recalc_smpsJohannes Berg
Make the function acquire the necessary mutex itself to simplify the callers. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2012-09-14mac80211: handle power constraint/country IE betterJohannes Berg
Currently, mac80211 uses the power constraint IE, and reduces the regulatory max TX power by it. This can cause issues if the AP is advertising a large power constraint value matching a high TX power in its country IE, for example in this case: ... Country: US Environment: Indoor/Outdoor ... Channels [157 - 157] @ 30 dBm ... Power constraint: 13 dB ... What happened here is that our local regulatory TX power is 15 dBm, and gets reduced by 13 dB so we end up with only 2 dBm effective TX power, which is way too low. Instead, handle the country IE/power constraint IE combined and restrict our TX power to the max of the regulatory power and the maximum power advertised by the AP, in this case 17 dBm (= 30 dBm - 13 dB). Also print a message when this happens to let the user know and help us debug issues with it. Reported-by: Carl A. Cook <CACook@quantum-equities.com> Tested-by: Carl A.

2012-09-11mac80211: remove unneeded CONFIG_PM ifdefJohannes Berg
The functions are only called if CONFIG_PM is set as the callers are under an ifdef, so there's no need to also define no-op functions. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2012-09-10mac80211: validate skb->dev in the tx status pathFelix Fietkau
skb->dev might contain a stale reference to a device that was already deleted, and using it unchecked can lead to invalid pointer accesses. Since this is only used for nl80211 tx, iterate over active interfaces to find a match for skb->dev, and discard the tx status if the device is gone.

2012-09-10mac80211: use call_rcu() on sta deletionEliad Peller
mac80211 calls synchronize_rcu() on sta deletion, which increase the roaming time significantly. Convert it into a call_rcu() mechanism, in order to avoid blocking. Since some of the cleanup functions might sleep, schedule from the call_rcu callback a new work that will do the actual cleanup. In order to make sure the cleanup occurs before the interface went down, flush local->workqueue on ieee80211_do_stop().

2012-09-10mac80211: add key flag for management keysJohannes Berg
Mark keys that might be used to receive management frames so drivers can fall back on software crypto for them if they don't support hardware offload. As the new flag is only set correctly for RX keys and the existing IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_SW_MGMT flag can only affect TX, also rename the latter to IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_SW_MGMT_TX. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2012-09-07mac80211: reply to AUTH with DEAUTH if sta allocation fails in IBSSAntonio Quartulli
Whenever a host gets an AUTH frame it first allocates a new station and then replies with another AUTH frame. However, if sta allocations fails the host should send a DEAUTH frame instead to tell the other end that something went wrong.

2012-09-06mac80211: use synchronize_net() on key destroyingEliad Peller
__ieee80211_key_destroy() calls synchronize_rcu() in order to sync the tx path before destroying the key. However, synching the tx path can be done with synchronize_net() as well, which is usually faster (the timing might be important for roaming scenarios).

2012-08-20mac80211: use RX status band instead of current bandJohannes Berg
