* can: CAN Network device driver and Netlink interfaceWolfgang Grandegger2009-05-186-0/+869
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The CAN network device driver interface provides a generic interface to setup, configure and monitor CAN network devices. It exports a set of common data structures and functions, which all real CAN network device drivers should use. Please have a look to the SJA1000 or MSCAN driver to understand how to use them. The name of the module is can-dev.ko. Furthermore, it adds a Netlink interface allowing to configure the CAN device using the program "ip" from the iproute2 utility suite.

(Two cache lines dirtied in tx path, we can do one only) Better solution is to add tx_packets/tx_bytes/tx_dropped in struct netdev_queue because this structure is already touched in tx path and counters updates will then be free (no increase in size) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| * mac80211: make noack test availableJohannes Berg2009-05-134-2/+44
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's this internal wifi_wme_noack_test variable that we use to set the QoS control if set. For one, it is unlikely that it is set. Secondly, if set it needs to influence the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_ACK TX control flag, and finally we should also be able to set it at all, so make it available in debugfs.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently mac80211 announces a rate set with no basic rates, this fixes it to use 1/2 or 6/9 Mbit as basic rates by default. Additionally, mac80211 will currently adopt the peer's entire rate set, rather than just the basic rate set; fix that too.

| * mac80211: split out and decrease probe wait timeJohannes Berg2009-05-131-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The time we wait for a probe response after probing an AP due to beacon loss is currently the same as the monitoring interval, 2s. This is far too long, APs should respond to probes within a fraction of that time. To be able to adjust both values, add a new constant IEEE80211_PROBE_WAIT, use it for checking the probe response, and adjust it down to 200ms instead of 2 seconds.

| * nl80211: Add RSC configuration for new keysJouni Malinen2009-05-136-5/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When setting a key with NL80211_CMD_NEW_KEY, we should allow the key sequence number (RSC) to be set in order to allow replay protection to work correctly for group keys. This patch documents this use for nl80211 and adds the couple of missing pieces in nl80211/cfg80211 and mac80211 to support this. In addition, WEXT SIOCSIWENCODEEXT compat processing in cfg80211 is extended to handle the RSC (this was already specified in WEXT, but just not implemented in cfg80211/mac80211).

| * nl80211: Add IEEE 802.1X PAE control for station modeJouni Malinen2009-05-137-3/+29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a new NL80211_ATTR_CONTROL_PORT flag for NL80211_CMD_ASSOCIATE to allow user space to indicate that it will control the IEEE 802.1X port in station mode. Previously, mac80211 was always marking the port authorized in station mode. This was enough when drop_unencrypted flag was set. However, drop_unencrypted can currently be controlled only with WEXT and the current nl80211 design does not allow fully secure configuration. Fix this by providing a mechanism for user space to control the IEEE 802.1X port in station mode (i.e., do the same that we are already doing in AP mode).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is currently not possible to modify station flags, but that capability would be very useful. This patch introduces a new nl80211 attribute that contains a set/mask for station flags, and updates the internal API (and mac80211) to mirror that. The new attribute is parsed before falling back to the old so that userspace can specify both (if it can) to work on all kernels.

| * cfg80211: implement wext key handlingJohannes Berg2009-05-137-317/+343
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move key handling wireless extension ioctls from mac80211 to cfg80211 so that all drivers that implement the cfg80211 operations get wext compatibility. Note that this drops the SIOCGIWENCODE ioctl support for getting IW_ENCODE_RESTRICTED/IW_ENCODE_OPEN. This means that iwconfig will no longer report "Security mode:open" or "Security mode:restricted" for mac80211. However, what we displayed there (the authentication algo used) was actually wrong -- linux/wireless.h states that this setting is meant to differentiate between "Refuse non-encoded packets" and "Accept non-encoded packets".

| * wext: fix get_wireless_stats lockingJohannes Berg2009-05-111-4/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, get_wireless_stats is racy by _design_. This is because it returns a buffer, which needs to be statically allocated since it cannot be freed if it was allocated dynamically. Also, SIOCGIWSTATS and /proc/net/wireless use no common lock, and /proc/net/wireless accesses are not synchronised against each other. This is a design flaw in get_wireless_stats since the beginning. This patch fixes it by wrapping /proc/net/wireless accesses with the RTNL so they are protected against each other and SIOCGIWSTATS. The more correct method of fixing this would be to pass in the buffer instead of returning it and have the caller take care of synchronisation of the buffer, but even then most drivers probably assume that their callback is protected by the RTNL like all other wext callbacks.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This removes all the dead code that tries to adjust the power saving level based on the system AC state (inacceptable policy in the kernel) or based on overtemp conditions (unused). Also, pass _all_ policy wrt. enabling PS to mac80211, since we do not use the power_disabled internally I now use that to mirror the mac80211 CONF_PS setting. When mac80211 turns off CONF_PS we follow suit. This means that the user power level (which can currently only be set from sysfs) is not touched for mac80211 powersave changes. This means no "association status" checks are necessary since mac80211 will not allow power save to be enabled when not associated.

| * iwlwifi: fix PS disable status raceJohannes Berg2009-05-111-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | iwlwifi internally needs to keep track of whether PS is enabled in the firmware or not. To do this, it keeps a bit in the status flags, called STATUS_POWER_PMI. The code to set this bit looks as follows: static int iwl_set_power(struct iwl_priv *priv, void *cmd) { return iwl_send_cmd_pdu_async(priv, POWER_TABLE_CMD, sizeof(struct iwl_powertable_cmd), cmd, NULL); } int iwl_power_update_mode(...) { [...] if (final_mode != IWL_POWER_MODE_CAM) set_bit(STATUS_POWER_PMI, &priv->status); iwl_update_power_cmd(priv, &cmd, final_mode); cmd.keep_alive_beacons = 0; if (final_mode == IWL_POWER_INDEX_5) cmd.flags |= IWL_POWER_FAST_PD; ret = iwl_set_power(priv, &cmd); if (final_mode == IWL_POWER_MODE_CAM) clear_bit(STATUS_POWER_PMI, &priv->status); else set_bit(STATUS_POWER_PMI, &priv->status); if (priv->cfg->ops->lib->update_chain_flags && update_chains) priv->cfg->ops->lib->update_chain_flags(priv); [...] } Now, this bit really needs to track what the _firmware_ thinks, not what the driver thinks. Therefore, there is a race condition here -- the driver sets the bit before it knows that the async command sent to the card in the iwl_set_power function has been processed. As a result, the call to update_chain_flags() may think that the card has been woken up (PMI bit cleared) while in reality it hasn't processed the async POWER_TABLE_CMD yet. This leads to bugs -- any commands the update_chain_flags function sends can get stuck and subsequent commands also fail. The fix is almost trivial: since there's no reason to send an async command here (in fact, there almost never should be since many mac80211 callbacks can sleep) just make the function wait for the card to process the command and then return and clear the PMI bit.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the microcode fails for any reason, ask mac80211 to recover instead of trying ourselves and failing at it.

| * mac80211: remove ieee80211_ht_bss_infoJohannes Berg2009-05-111-16/+0

| * mac80211: properly track HT operation_modeJohannes Berg2009-05-112-1/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we disassociate, we set the channel to non-HT which obviously invalidates any ht_operation_mode setting. But when we then associate with the next AP again, we might still have the ht_operation_mode from the previous AP cached and fail to configure the hardware with the new (but unchanged) operation mode. This patch fixes it by separately tracking whether our cache is valid. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
| * mac80211: move HT operation mode BSS infoJohannes Berg2009-05-115-20/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There really is no need to have a separate struct for a single variable. The fact that it exists is due to the code legacy, but we can remove that now. Very simple. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

| * mac80211: improve scan timingJohannes Berg2009-05-111-8/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The call to ieee80211_hw_config() is supposed to apply changes synchronously, so once it returns the parameters are applied to the hardware. Thus, there really is no need to delay the probing by the channel switch time again since the channel switch has already happened once we get to this code. Additionally, there is no need to wait for a NAV update (probe delay) when the channel is passively scanned. Remove that extra time too. This cuts scanning time from over 7 seconds to under 4 on ar9170, which is due to the number of channels scanned and ar9170's switch time being advertised as 135ms (my test now indicates it is about 77ms with the current driver, but the difference might also be due to using a different machine with different USB controllers).

| * mac80211: MFP - Drop unprotected Action frames prior key setupJouni Malinen2009-05-111-9/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When management frame protection (IEEE 802.11w) is used, unprotected Robust Action frames are not allowed prior to key configuration. However, unprotected Deauthentication and Disassociation frames are allowed at that point, but not after key configuration. Make ieee80211_drop_unencrypted() handle the special cases for MFP by separating the basic Data frame case from Management frame processing and handle the Management frames only if MFP has been negotiated. In addition, do not use sdata->drop_unencrypted for Management frames since the decision on whether to accept the frame depends on the key being configured.
