mac80211: remove sta_info.gtk_idx

2015-07-17T13:37:54+00:00

This struct member is only assigned, never used otherwise;
remove it.

mac80211: fix locking in update_vlan_tailroom_need_count()

2015-06-21T17:06:07+00:00

Unfortunately, Michal's change to fix AP_VLAN crypto tailroom
caused a locking issue that was reported by lockdep, but only
in a few cases - the issue was a classic ABBA deadlock caused
by taking the mtx after the key_mtx, where normally they're
taken the other way around.

As the key mutex protects the field in question (I'm adding a
few annotations to make that clear) only the iteration needs
to be protected, but we can also iterate the interface list
with just RCU protection while holding the key mutex.

mac80211: convert HW flags to unsigned long bitmap

2015-06-10T14:05:36+00:00

As we're running out of hardware capability flags pretty quickly,
convert them to use the regular test_bit() style unsigned long
bitmaps.

This introduces a number of helper functions/macros to set and to
test the bits, along with new debugfs code.

The occurrences of an explicit __clear_bit() are intentional, the
drivers were never supposed to change their supported bits on the
fly. We should investigate changing this to be a per-frame flag.

Merge remote-tracking branch 'net-next/master' into mac80211-next

2015-06-10T10:45:09+00:00

Merge back net-next to get wireless driver changes (from Kalle)
to be able to create the API change across all trees properly.

mac80211: move TX PN to public part of key struct

2015-06-02T09:16:35+00:00

For drivers supporting TSO or similar features, but that still have
PN assignment in software, there's a need to have some memory to
store the current PN value. As mac80211 already stores this and it's
somewhat complicated to add a per-driver area to the key struct (due
to the dynamic sizing thereof) it makes sense to just move the TX PN
to the keyconf, i.e. the public part of the key struct.

As TKIP is more complicated and we won't able to offload it in this
way right now (fast-xmit is skipped for TKIP unless the HW does it
all, and our hardware needs MMIC calculation in software) I've not
moved that for now - it's possible but requires exposing a lot of
the internal TKIP state.

As an bonus side effect, we can remove a lot of code by assuming the
keyseq struct has a certain layout - with BUILD_BUG_ON to verify it.

This might also improve performance, since now TX and RX no longer
share a cacheline.

iwlwifi/Kconfig and mac80211.h were both trivial overlapping
changes.

The drivers/net/phy/amd-xgbe-phy.c file got removed in 'net-next' and
the bug fix that happened on the 'net' side is already integrated
into the rest of the amd-xgbe driver.

mac80211: fix AP_VLAN crypto tailroom calculation

2015-05-20T13:10:11+00:00

Some splats I was seeing:

 (a) WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 0 at /devel/src/linux/net/mac80211/wep.c:102 ieee80211_wep_add_iv
 (b) WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 0 at /devel/src/linux/net/mac80211/wpa.c:73 ieee80211_tx_h_michael_mic_add
 (c) WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 0 at /devel/src/linux/net/mac80211/wpa.c:433 ieee80211_crypto_ccmp_encrypt

I've seen (a) and (b) with ath9k hw crypto and (c)
with ath9k sw crypto. All of them were related to
insufficient skb tailroom and I was able to
trigger these with ping6 program.

AP_VLANs may inherit crypto keys from parent AP.
This wasn't considered and yielded problems in
some setups resulting in inability to transmit
data because mac80211 wouldn't resize skbs when
necessary and subsequently drop some packets due
to insufficient tailroom.

For efficiency purposes don't inspect both AP_VLAN
and AP sdata looking for tailroom counter. Instead
update AP_VLAN tailroom counters whenever their
master AP tailroom counter changes.

mac80211: validate cipher scheme PN length better

2015-05-06T11:30:00+00:00

Currently, a cipher scheme can advertise an arbitrarily long
sequence counter, but mac80211 only supports up to 16 bytes
and the initial value from userspace will be truncated.

Fix two things:
 * don't allow the driver to register anything longer than
   the 16 bytes that mac80211 reserves space for
 * require userspace to specify a starting value with the
   correct length (or none at all)

mac80211: extend get_key() to return PN for all ciphers

2015-05-06T11:30:00+00:00

For ciphers not supported by mac80211, the function currently
doesn't return any PN data. Fix this by extending the driver's
get_key_seq() a little more to allow moving arbitrary PN data.
