2018-03-29mac80211: allow AP_VLAN operation on crypto controlled devicesManikanta Pubbisetty
In the current implementation, mac80211 advertises the support of AP_VLANs based on the driver's support for AP mode; it also blocks encrypted AP_VLAN operation on devices advertising SW_CRYPTO_CONTROL. The implementation seems weird in it's current form and could be often confusing, this is because there can be drivers advertising both SW_CRYPTO_CONTROL and AP mode support (ex: ath10k) in which case AP_VLAN will still be supported but only in open BSS and not in secured BSS. When SW_CRYPTO_CONTROL is enabled, it makes more sense if the decision to support AP_VLANs is left to the driver. Mac80211 can then allow AP_VLAN operations depending on the driver support.

2017-10-25mac80211: don't compare TKIP TX MIC key in reinstall preventionJohannes Berg
For the reinstall prevention, the code I had added compares the whole key. It turns out though that iwlwifi firmware doesn't provide the TKIP TX MIC key as it's not needed in client mode, and thus the comparison will always return false. For client mode, thus always zero out the TX MIC key part before doing the comparison in order to avoid accepting the reinstall of the key with identical encryption and RX MIC key, but not the same TX MIC key (since the supplicant provides the real one.)

2017-10-16mac80211: accept key reinstall without changing anythingJohannes Berg
When a key is reinstalled we can reset the replay counters etc. which can lead to nonce reuse and/or replay detection being impossible, breaking security properties, as described in the "KRACK attacks". In particular, CVE-2017-13080 applies to GTK rekeying that happened in firmware while the host is in D3, with the second part of the attack being done after the host wakes up. In this case, the wpa_supplicant mitigation isn't sufficient since wpa_supplicant doesn't know the GTK material. In case this happens, simply silently accept the new key coming from userspace but don't take any action on it since it's the same key; this keeps the PN replay counters intact.

2016-12-13mac80211: don't call drv_set_default_unicast_key() for VLANsJohannes Berg
Since drivers know nothing about AP_VLAN interfaces, trying to call drv_set_default_unicast_key() just results in a warning and no call to the driver. Avoid the warning by not calling the driver for this on AP_VLAN interfaces. This means that drivers that somehow need this call for AP mode will fail to work properly in the presence of VLAN interfaces, but the current drivers don't seem to use it, and mac80211 will select and indicate the key - so drivers should be OK now.

2016-04-06mac80211: add fast-rx pathJohannes Berg
The regular RX path has a lot of code, but with a few assumptions on the hardware it's possible to reduce the amount of code significantly. Currently the assumptions on the driver are the following: * hardware/driver reordering buffer (if supporting aggregation) * hardware/driver decryption & PN checking (if using encryption) * hardware/driver did de-duplication * hardware/driver did A-MSDU deaggregation * AP_LINK_PS is used (in AP mode) * no client powersave handling in mac80211 (in client mode) of which some are actually checked per packet: * de-duplication * PN checking * decryption and additionally packets must * not be A-MSDU (have been deaggregated by driver/device) * be data packets * not be fragmented * be unicast * have RFC 1042 header Additionally dynamically we assume: * no encryption or CCMP/GCMP, TKIP/WEP/other not allowed * station must be authorized * 4-addr format not enabled Some data needed for the RX path is cached in a new per-station "fast_rx" structure, so that we only need to look at this and the packet, no other memory when processing packets on the fast RX path. After doing the above per-packet checks, the data path collapses down to a pretty simple conversion function taking advantage of the data cached in the small fast_rx struct. This should speed up the RX processing, and will make it easier to reason about parallelizing RX (for which statistics will need to be per-CPU still.)

2016-02-24mac80211: move TKIP TX IVs to public part of key structEliad Peller
Some drivers/devices might want to set the IVs by themselves (and still let mac80211 generate MMIC). Specifically, this is needed when the device does offloading at certain times, and the driver has to make sure that the IVs of new tx frames (from the host) are synchronized with IVs that were potentially used during the offloading. Similarly to CCMP, move the TX IVs of TKIP keys to the public part of the key struct, and export a function to add the IV right into the crypto header. The public tx_pn field is defined as atomic64, so define TKIP_PN_TO_IV16/32 helper macros to convert it to iv16/32 when needed. Since the iv32 used for the p1k cache is taken directly from the frame, we can safely remove iv16/32 from being protected by tkip.txlock.

2015-06-21mac80211: fix locking in update_vlan_tailroom_need_count()Johannes Berg
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.

2015-06-10mac80211: convert HW flags to unsigned long bitmapJohannes Berg
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.

2015-06-02mac80211: move TX PN to public part of key structJohannes Berg
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.

2015-01-22mac80211: allow drivers to control software cryptoJohannes Berg
Some drivers unfortunately cannot support software crypto, but mac80211 currently assumes that they do. This has the issue that if the hardware enabling fails for some reason, the software fallback is used, which won't work. This clearly isn't desirable, the error should be reported and the key setting refused. Support this in mac80211 by allowing drivers to set a new HW flag IEEE80211_HW_SW_CRYPTO_CONTROL, in which case mac80211 will only allow software fallback if the set_key() method returns 1. The driver will also need to advertise supported cipher suites so that mac80211 doesn't advertise any (future) software ciphers that the driver can't actually do. While at it, to make it easier to support this, refactor the ieee80211_init_cipher_suites() code. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2015-01-07mac80211: Re-fix accounting of the tailroom-needed counterIdo Yariv
When hw acceleration is enabled, the GENERATE_IV or PUT_IV_SPACE flags only require headroom space. Therefore, the tailroom-needed counter can safely be decremented for most drivers. The older incarnation of this patch (ca34e3b5) assumed that the above holds true for all drivers. As reported by Christopher Chavez and researched by Christian Lamparter and Larry Finger, this isn't a valid assumption for p54 and cw1200.

In order to be able to (securely) keep connections alive after the system was suspended for WoWLAN, we need some additional APIs.

2013-03-06mac80211: defer tailroom counter manipulation when roamingJohannes Berg
During roaming, the crypto_tx_tailroom_needed_cnt counter will often take values 2,1,0,1,2 because first keys are removed and then new keys are added. This is inefficient because during the 0->1 transition, synchronize_net must be called to avoid packet races, although typically no packets would be flowing during that time. To avoid that, defer the decrement (2->1, 1->0) when keys are removed (by half a second). This means the counter will really have the values 2,2,2,3,4 ... 2, thus never reaching 0 and having to do the 0->1 transition. Note that this patch entirely disregards the drivers for which this optimisation was done to start with, for them the key removal itself will be expensive because it has to synchronize_net() after the counter is incremented to remove the key from HW crypto. For them the sequence will look like this: 0,1,0,1,0,1,0,1,0 (*) which is clearly a lot more inefficient. This could be addressed separately, during key removal the 0->1->0 sequence isn't necessary. (*) it starts at 0 because HW crypto is on, then goes to 1 when HW crypto is disabled for a key, then back to 0 because the key is deleted; this happens for both keys in the example. When new keys are added, it goes to 1 first because they're added in software; when a key is moved to hardware it goes back to 0 Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

There's no driver using this flag, so it seems that all drivers support HW crypto with WMM or don't support it at all. Remove the flag and code setting it. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2013-03-06mac80211: cleanup generic suspend/resume proceduresStanislaw Gruszka
Since now we disconnect before suspend, various code which save connection state can now be removed from suspend and resume procedure. Cleanup on resume side is smaller as ieee80211_reconfig() is also used for H/W restart. Signed-off-by: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2013-01-18mac80211: add op to configure default key idYoni Divinsky
There are hardwares which support offload of data packets for example when auto ARP is enabled the hw will send the ARP response. In such cases if WEP encryption is configured the hw must know the default WEP key in order to encrypt the packets correctly. When hw_accel is enabled and encryption type is set to WEP, the driver should get the default key index from mac80211.
