2013-11-19genetlink: make multicast groups const, prevent abuseJohannes Berg
Register generic netlink multicast groups as an array with the family and give them contiguous group IDs. Then instead of passing the global group ID to the various functions that send messages, pass the ID relative to the family - for most families that's just 0 because the only have one group. This avoids the list_head and ID in each group, adding a new field for the mcast group ID offset to the family. At the same time, this allows us to prevent abusing groups again like the quota and dropmon code did, since we can now check that a family only uses a group it owns.

2013-11-19genetlink: pass family to functions using groupsJohannes Berg
This doesn't really change anything, but prepares for the next patch that will change the APIs to pass the group ID within the family, rather than the global group ID. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2013-11-19genetlink: only pass array to genl_register_family_with_ops()Johannes Berg
As suggested by David Miller, make genl_register_family_with_ops() a macro and pass only the array, evaluating ARRAY_SIZE() in the macro, this is a little safer. The openvswitch has some indirection, assing ops/n_ops directly in that code. This might ultimately just assign the pointers in the family initializations, saving the struct genl_family_and_ops and code (once mcast groups are handled differently.)

2013-11-14genetlink: make all genl_ops users constJohannes Berg
Now that genl_ops are no longer modified in place when registering, they can be made const.

2013-11-14genetlink: allow making ops constJohannes Berg
Allow making the ops array const by not modifying the ops flags on registration but rather only when ops are sent out in the family information.

Implement the required procedures for mesh channel switching as defined in the IEEE Std 802.11-2012 section 10.9.8.4.3 and also handle the CSA and MCSP elements as followed: * Add the function for updating the beacon and probe response frames with CSA and MCSP elements during the period of switching to the new channel. Both CSA and MCSP elements must be included in beacon and probe response frames until the intended channel switch time. * The ifmsh->csa_settings is set to NULL and the CSA and MCSP elements will then be removed from the beacon or probe response frames once the new channel is switched to.

2013-10-28nl80211/cfg80211: enable DFS for IBSS modeSimon Wunderlich
To use DFS in IBSS mode, userspace is required to react to radar events. It can inform nl80211 that it is capable of doing so by adding a NL80211_ATTR_HANDLE_DFS attribute when joining the IBSS. This attribute is supplied to let the kernelspace know that the userspace application can and will handle radar events, e.g. by intiating channel switches to a valid channel. DFS channels may only be used if this attribute is supplied and the driver supports it. Driver support will be checked even if a channel without DFS will be initially joined, as a DFS channel may be chosen later.

2013-10-14wireless: radiotap: fix parsing buffer overrunJohannes Berg
When parsing an invalid radiotap header, the parser can overrun the buffer that is passed in because it doesn't correctly check 1) the minimum radiotap header size 2) the space for extended bitmaps The first issue doesn't affect any in-kernel user as they all check the minimum size before calling the radiotap function. The second issue could potentially affect the kernel if an skb is passed in that consists only of the radiotap header with a lot of extended bitmaps that extend past the SKB. In that case a read-only buffer overrun by at most 4 bytes is possible. Fix this by adding the appropriate checks to the parser.

2013-10-11cfg80211: enable regulatory hints for strict custom settingsLuis R. Rodriguez
If we have a wiphy with an ISO3166-alpha2 regulatory domain programmed with the strict flag set we wait until the wiphy gets its wiphy->regd programmed before allowing regulatory domains hints other than country IE hints from processing on the wiphy. The existing check however discards the possibility of custom regulatory domains having also used the strict flag and these will not have the wiphy->regd set. Custom strict regulatory domains never set the wiphy->regd though as such currently all regulatory hints other than country IE hints are being ignored on these wiphys. All custom strict regulatory domains set the wiphy with the WIPHY_FLAG_CUSTOM_REGULATORY and use wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory(). Enhance the check for the strict ISO3166-alpha2 regulatory domain case by exempting the WIPHY_FLAG_CUSTOM_REGULATORY case. This will enable other regulatory hints to be processed now for these strict custom regulatory domains. Cc: smihir@qti.qualcomm.com Cc: tushnimb@qca.qualcomm.com Signed-off-by: Luis R.

2013-10-01regulatory: enable channels 52-64 and 100-144 for world roamingJohannes Berg
If allowed in a country, these channels typically require DFS so mark them as such. Channel 144 is a bit special, it's coming into use now to allow more VHT 80 channels, but world roaming with passive scanning is acceptable anyway. It seems fairly unlikely that it'll be used as the control channel for a VHT AP, but it needs to be present to allow a full VHT connection to an AP that uses it as one of the secondary channels. Also enable VHT 160 on these channels, and also for channels 36-48 to be able to use VHT 160 there. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
