2017-06-13nl80211: add authorized flag to ROAM eventAvraham Stern
Drivers that initiate roaming while being connected to a network that uses 802.1X authentication need to inform user space if 802.1X authentication is further required after roaming. For example, when using the Fast transition protocol, roaming within the mobility domain does not require new 802.1X authentication, but roaming to another mobility domain does. In addition, some drivers may not support 802.1X authentication (so it has to be done in user space), while other drivers do. Add a flag to the roaming notification to indicate if user space is required to do 802.1X authentication after the roaming or not. This flag will only be used for networks that use 802.1X authentication. For networks that do not use 802.1X authentication it is assumed that no further action is required from user space after the roaming notification.

cfg80211_roamed() and cfg80211_roamed_bss() take the same arguments except that cfg80211_roamed() requires the BSSID and cfg80211_roamed_bss() requires the bss entry.

Disconnect or deauthenticate when the owning socket is closed if this flag is supplied to CMD_CONNECT or CMD_ASSOCIATE. This may be used to ensure userspace daemon doesn't leave an unmanaged connection behind. In some situations it would be possible to account for that, to some degree, in the deamon restart code or in the up/down scripts without the use of this attribute. But there will be systems where the daemon can go away for varying periods without a warning due to local resource management.

2016-12-09cfg80211/mac80211: fix BSS leaks when abandoning assoc attemptsJohannes Berg
When mac80211 abandons an association attempt, it may free all the data structures, but inform cfg80211 and userspace about it only by sending the deauth frame it received, in which case cfg80211 has no link to the BSS struct that was used and will not cfg80211_unhold_bss() it. Fix this by providing a way to inform cfg80211 of this with the BSS entry passed, so that it can clean up properly, and use this ability in the appropriate places in mac80211. This isn't ideal: some code is more or less duplicated and tracing is missing. However, it's a fairly small change and it's thus easier to backport - cleanups can come later.

2016-09-15cfg80211: allow connect keys only with default (TX) keyJohannes Berg
There's no point in allowing connect keys when one of them isn't also configured as the TX key, it would just confuse drivers and probably cause them to pick something for TX. Disallow this confusing and erroneous configuration. As wpa_supplicant will always send NL80211_ATTR_KEYS, even when there are no keys inside, allow that and treat it as though the attribute isn't present at all.

2016-05-31cfg80211: Allow cfg80211_connect_result() errors to be distinguishedJouni Malinen
Previously, the status parameter to cfg80211_connect_result() was documented as using WLAN_STATUS_UNSPECIFIED_FAILURE (1) when the real status code for the failure is not known. This value can be used by an AP (and often is) and as such, user space cannot distinguish between explicitly rejected authentication/association and not being able to even try to associate or not receiving a response from the AP. Add a new inline function, cfg80211_connect_timeout(), to be used when the driver knows that the connection attempt failed due to a reason where connection could not be attempt or no response was received from the AP. The internal functions now allow a negative status value (-1) to be used as an indication of this special case. This results in the NL80211_ATTR_TIMED_OUT to be added to the NL80211_CMD_CONNECT event to allow user space to determine this case was hit. For backwards compatibility, NL80211_STATUS_CODE with the value WLAN_STATUS_UNSPECIFIED_FAILURE is still indicated in the event in such a case.

2016-04-26cfg80211: Add option to report the bss entry in connect resultKanchanapally, Vidyullatha
Since cfg80211 maintains separate BSS table entries for APs if the same BSSID, SSID pair is seen on multiple channels, it is possible that it can map the current_bss to a BSS entry on the wrong channel. This current_bss will not get flushed unless disconnected and cfg80211 reports a wrong channel as the associated channel. Fix this by introducing a new cfg80211_connect_bss() function which is similar to cfg80211_connect_result(), but it includes an additional parameter: the bss the STA is connected to. This allows drivers to provide the exact bss entry that matches the BSS to which the connection was completed.

2016-04-05cfg80211: Allow a scan request for a specific BSSIDJouni Malinen
This allows scans for a specific BSSID to be optimized by the user space application by requesting the driver to set the Probe Request frame BSSID field (Address 3) to the specified BSSID instead of the wildcard BSSID. This prevents other APs from replying which reduces airtime need and latency in getting the response from the target AP through. This is an optimization and as such, it is acceptable for some of the drivers not to support the mechanism. If not supported, the wildcard BSSID will be used and more responses may be received.

PBSS (Personal Basic Service Set) is a new BSS type for DMG networks. It is similar to infrastructure BSS, having an AP-like entity called PCP (PBSS Control Point), but it has few differences. PBSS support is mandatory for 11ad devices. Add support for PBSS by introducing a new PBSS flag attribute.

2015-05-26cfg80211: properly send NL80211_ATTR_DISCONNECTED_BY_AP in disconnectJohannes Berg
When we disconnect from the AP, drivers call cfg80211_disconnect(). This doesn't know whether the disconnection was initiated locally or by the AP though, which can cause problems with the supplicant, for example with WPS. This issue obviously doesn't show up with any mac80211 based driver since mac80211 doesn't call this function. Fix this by requiring drivers to indicate whether the disconnect is locally generated or not. I've tried to update the drivers, but may not have gotten the values correct, and some drivers may currently not be able to report correct values. In case of doubt I left it at false, which is the current behaviour. For libertas, make adjustments as indicated by Dan Williams.

In order to get the BSS struct for the new PBSS networks, change the cfg80211_get_bss() function to take a new enum ieee80211_bss_type argument with the valid network types, as "capa_mask" and "capa_val" no longer work correctly (the search must be band-aware now.)

Due to the previous commit, when a scan finishes, it is in theory possible to hit the following sequence: 1. interface starts being removed 2. scan is cancelled by driver and cfg80211 is notified 3. scan done work is scheduled 4. interface is removed completely, rdev->scan_req is freed, event sent to userspace but scan done work remains pending 5. new scan is requested on another virtual interface 6. scan done work runs, freeing the still-running scan To fix this situation, hang on to the scan done message and block new scans while that is the case, and only send the message from the work function, regardless of whether the scan_req is already freed from interface removal. This makes step 5 above impossible and changes step 6 to be 5. scan done work runs, sending the scan done message As this can't work for wext, so we send the message immediately, but this shouldn't be an issue since we still return -EBUSY.

2013-06-04cfg80211: separate internal SME implementationJohannes Berg
The current internal SME implementation in cfg80211 is very mixed up with the MLME handling, which has been causing issues for a long time. There are three things that the implementation has to provide: * a basic SME implementation for nl80211's connect() call (for drivers implementing auth/assoc, which is really just mac80211) and wireless extensions * MLME events for the userspace SME * SME events (connected, disconnected etc.) for all different SME implementation possibilities (driver, cfg80211 and userspace) To achieve these goals it isn't necessary to track the software SME's connection status outside of it's state (which is the part that caused many issues.) Instead, track it only in the SME data (wdev->conn) and in the general case only track whether the wdev is connected or not (via wdev->current_bss.) Also separate the internal implementation to not have callbacks from the SME events, but rather call it from the API functions that the driver (or rather mac80211) calls. This separates the code better. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2013-05-25cfg80211: remove some locked wrappers from sme APIJohannes Berg
By making all the API functions require wdev locking we can clean up the API a bit, getting rid of the locking version of each function. This also decreases the size of cfg80211 by a small amount. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2013-05-25cfg80211: vastly simplify lockingJohannes Berg
Virtually all code paths in cfg80211 already (need to) hold the RTNL. As such, there's little point in having another four mutexes for various parts of the code, they just cause lock ordering issues (and much of the time, the RTNL and a few of the others need thus be held.) Simplify all this by getting rid of the extra four mutexes and just use the RTNL throughout. Only a few code changes were needed to do this and we can get rid of a work struct for bonus points.

2013-05-23cfg80211: check wdev->netdev in connection workJohannes Berg
If a P2P-Device is present and another virtual interface triggers the connection work, the system crash because it tries to check if the P2P-Device's netdev (which doesn't exist) is up. Skip any wdevs that have no netdev to fix this. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reported-by: YanBo <dreamfly281@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2013-05-16cfg80211: fix interface down/disconnect state handlingJohannes Berg
When the interface goes down, there's no need to call cfg80211_mlme_down() after __cfg80211_disconnect() as the latter will call the former (if appropriate.) Also, in __cfg80211_disconnect(), if the cfg80211 SME isn't used, __cfg80211_disconnected() may still need to be called (depending on the current state) so that the SME state gets cleared.
