mac80211: properly drop the connection in case of invalid CSA IE

2021-05-19T08:56:18+00:00

[ Upstream commit 253907ab8bc0818639af382f6398810fa1f022b3 ]

In case the frequency is invalid, ieee80211_parse_ch_switch_ie
will fail and we may not even reach the check in
ieee80211_sta_process_chanswitch. Drop the connection
in case ieee80211_parse_ch_switch_ie failed, but still
take into account the CSA mode to remember not to send
a deauth frame in case if it is forbidden to.

mac80211: clear the beacon's CRC after channel switch

2021-05-19T08:56:14+00:00

[ Upstream commit d6843d1ee283137723b4a8c76244607ce6db1951 ]

After channel switch, we should consider any beacon with a
CSA IE as a new switch. If the CSA IE is a leftover from
before the switch that the AP forgot to remove, we'll get
a CSA-to-Self.

This caused issues in iwlwifi where the firmware saw a beacon
with a CSA-to-Self with mode = 1 on the new channel after a
switch. The firmware considered this a new switch and closed
its queues. Since the beacon didn't change between before and
after the switch, we wouldn't handle it (the CRC is the same)
and we wouldn't let the firmware open its queues again or
disconnect if the CSA IE stays for too long.

Clear the CRC valid state after we switch to make sure that
we handle the beacon and handle the CSA IE as required.

mac80211: Set priority and queue mapping for injected frames

2021-05-19T08:56:14+00:00

[ Upstream commit 96a7109a16665255b65d021e24141c2edae0e202 ]

Some drivers, for example mt76, use the skb priority field, and
expects that to be consistent with the skb queue mapping. On some
frame injection code paths that was not true, and it broke frame
injection. Now the skb queue mapping is set according to the skb
priority value when the frame is injected. The skb priority value
is also derived from the frame data for all frame types, as it
was done prior to commit dbd50a851c50 (only allocate one queue
when using iTXQs). Fixes frame injection with the mt76 driver on
MT7610E chipset.

mac80211: bail out if cipher schemes are invalid

2021-05-14T08:52:50+00:00

[ Upstream commit db878e27a98106a70315d264cc92230d84009e72 ]

If any of the cipher schemes specified by the driver are invalid, bail
out and fail the registration rather than just warning.  Otherwise, we
might later crash when we try to use the invalid cipher scheme, e.g.
if the hdr_len is (significantly) less than the pn_offs + pn_len, we'd
have an out-of-bounds access in RX validation.

mac80211: fix time-is-after bug in mlme

2021-04-08T08:14:53+00:00

The incorrect timeout check caused probing to happen when it did
not need to happen.  This in turn caused tx performance drop
for around 5 seconds in ath10k-ct driver.  Possibly that tx drop
is due to a secondary issue, but fixing the probe to not happen
when traffic is running fixes the symptom.

mac80211: fix TXQ AC confusion

2021-04-08T08:14:48+00:00

Normally, TXQs have

  txq->tid = tid;
  txq->ac = ieee80211_ac_from_tid(tid);

However, the special management TXQ actually has

  txq->tid = IEEE80211_NUM_TIDS; // 16
  txq->ac = IEEE80211_AC_VO;

This makes sense, but ieee80211_ac_from_tid(16) is the same
as ieee80211_ac_from_tid(0) which is just IEEE80211_AC_BE.

Now, normally this is fine. However, if the netdev queues
were stopped, then the code in ieee80211_tx_dequeue() will
propagate the stop from the interface (vif->txqs_stopped[])
if the AC 2 (ieee80211_ac_from_tid(txq->tid)) is marked as
stopped. On wake, however, __ieee80211_wake_txqs() will wake
the TXQ if AC 0 (txq->ac) is woken up.

If a driver stops all queues with ieee80211_stop_tx_queues()
and then wakes them again with ieee80211_wake_tx_queues(),
the ieee80211_wake_txqs() tasklet will run to resync queue
and TXQ state. If all queues were woken, then what'll happen
is that _ieee80211_wake_txqs() will run in order of HW queues
0-3, typically (and certainly for iwlwifi) corresponding to
ACs 0-3, so it'll call __ieee80211_wake_txqs() for each AC in
order 0-3.

When __ieee80211_wake_txqs() is called for AC 0 (VO) that'll
wake up the management TXQ (remember its tid is 16), and the
driver's wake_tx_queue() will be called. That tries to get a
frame, which will immediately *stop* the TXQ again, because
now we check against AC 2, and AC 2 hasn't yet been marked as
woken up again in sdata->vif.txqs_stopped[] since we're only
in the __ieee80211_wake_txqs() call for AC 0.

Thus, the management TXQ will never be started again.

Fix this by checking txq->ac directly instead of calculating
the AC as ieee80211_ac_from_tid(txq->tid).

mac80211: clear sta->fast_rx when STA removed from 4-addr VLAN

2021-04-08T08:14:42+00:00

In some race conditions, with more clients and traffic configuration,
below crash is seen when making the interface down. sta->fast_rx wasn't
cleared when STA gets removed from 4-addr AP_VLAN interface. The crash is
due to try accessing 4-addr AP_VLAN interface's net_device (fast_rx->dev)
which has been deleted already.

Resolve this by clearing sta->fast_rx pointer when STA removes
from a 4-addr VLAN.

mac80211: choose first enabled channel for monitor

Even if the first channel from sband channel list is invalid
or disabled mac80211 ends up choosing it as the default channel
for monitor interfaces, making them not usable.

Fix this by assigning the first available valid or enabled

crypto_aead_encrypt returns <0 on error, so if these calls are not checked,
execution may continue with failed encrypts.  It also seems that these two
crypto_aead_encrypt calls are the only instances in the codebase that are

mac80211: Allow HE operation to be longer than expected.

2021-03-16T20:14:04+00:00

We observed some Cisco APs sending the following HE Operation IE in
associate response:

  ff 0a 24 f4 3f 00 01 fc ff 00 00 00

Its HE operation parameter is 0x003ff4, so the expected total length is
7 which does not match the actual length = 10. This causes association
failing with "HE AP is missing HE Capability/operation."

According to P802.11ax_D4 Table9-94, HE operation is extensible, and
according to 802.11-2016 10.27.8, STA should discard the part beyond
the maximum length and parse the truncated element.

Allow HE operation element to be longer than expected to handle this
case and future extensions.
