2013-02-11cfg80211: remove scan ies NULL checkJohannes Berg
There's no way scan BSS IEs can be NULL as even if the allocation fails the frame is discarded. Remove some code checking for this and document that it is always non-NULL. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2013-02-11mac80211: add vif debugfs driver callbacksAlexander Bondar
Add debugfs driver callbacks so drivers can add debugfs entries for interfaces. Note that they _must_ remove the entries again as add/remove in the driver doesn't correspond to add/remove in debugfs; the former is up/down while the latter is netdev create/destroy.

2013-02-11cfg80211: track hidden SSID networks properlyJohannes Berg
Currently, cfg80211 will copy beacon IEs from a previously received hidden SSID beacon to a probe response entry, if that entry is created after the beacon entry. However, if it is the other way around, or if the beacon is updated, such changes aren't propagated. Fix this by tracking the relation between the probe response and beacon BSS structs in this case. In case drivers have private data stored in a BSS struct and need access to such data from a beacon entry, cfg80211 now provides the hidden_beacon_bss pointer from the probe response entry to the beacon entry.

2013-02-11mac80211: explicitly copy channels to VLANs where neededJohannes Berg
Currently the code assigns channel contexts to VLANs (for use by the TX/RX code) when the AP master gets its channel context assigned. This works fine, but in the upcoming radar detection work the VLANs don't require a channel context (during radar detection) and assigning one to them anyway causes issues with locking and also inconsistencies -- a VLAN interface that is added before radar detection would get the channel context, while one added during it wouldn't. Fix these issues moving the channel context copying to a new explicit operation that will not be used in the radar detection code.

2013-02-11mac80211: fix chandef tracing bugJohannes Berg

2013-02-11mac80211: protect rx-path with spinlockChristian Lamparter
This patch fixes the problem which was discussed in "mac80211: Fix PN corruption in case of multiple virtual interface" [1]. Amit Shakya reported a serious issue with my patch: mac80211: serialize rx path workers" [2]: In case, ieee80211_rx_handlers processing is going on for skbs received on one vif and at the same time, rx aggregation reorder timer expires on another vif then sta_rx_agg_reorder_timer_expired is invoked and it will push skbs into the single queue (local->rx_skb_queue). ieee80211_rx_handlers in the while loop assumes that the skbs are for the same sdata and sta. This assumption doesn't hold good in this scenario and the PN gets corrupted by PN received in other vif's skb, causing traffic to stop due to PN mismatch."

2013-02-11mac80211: fix mesh sta teardownThomas Pedersen
The patch "mac80211: clean up mesh sta allocation warning" moved some mesh initialization into a path which is only called when the kernel handles peering. This causes a hang when mac80211 tries to clean up a userspace-allocated station entry and delete a timer which has never been initialized. To avoid this, only do any mesh sta peering teardown if the kernel is actually handling it. The same is true when quiescing before suspend.
