mac80211: reset probe_send_count also in HW_CONNECTION_MONITOR case

2014-08-26T12:12:02+00:00

commit 448cd2e248732326632957e52ea9c44729affcb2 upstream. In case of beacon_loss with IEEE80211_HW_CONNECTION_MONITOR device, mac80211 probes the ap (and disconnects on timeout) but ignores the ack. If we already got an ack, there's no reason to continue disconnecting. this can help devices that supports IEEE80211_HW_CONNECTION_MONITOR only partially (e.g. take care of keep alives, but does not probe the ap. In case the device wants to disconnect without probing, it can just call ieee80211_connection_loss. Signed-off-by: Eliad Peller Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby

mac80211: add a flag to indicate CCK support for HT clients

2013-08-21T13:03:25+00:00

brcm80211 cannot handle sending frames with CCK rates as part of an A-MPDU session. Other drivers may have issues too. Set the flag in all drivers that have been tested with CCK rates. This fixes a reported brcmsmac regression introduced in commit ef47a5e4f1aaf1d0e2e6875e34b2c9595897bef6 "mac80211/minstrel_ht: fix cck rate sampling" Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 3.10 Reported-by: Tom Gundersen Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: add APIs to allow keeping connections after WoWLAN

2013-08-16T10:58:43+00:00

In order to be able to (securely) keep connections alive after the system was suspended for WoWLAN, we need some additional APIs. We already have API (ieee80211_gtk_rekey_notify) to tell wpa_supplicant about the new replay counter if GTK rekeying was done by the device while the host was asleep, but that's not sufficient. If GTK rekeying wasn't done, we need to tell the host about sequence counters for the GTK (and PTK regardless of rekeying) that was used while asleep, add ieee80211_set_key_rx_seq() for that. If GTK rekeying was done, then we need to be able to disable the old keys (with ieee80211_remove_key()) and allocate the new GTK key(s) in mac80211 (with ieee80211_gtk_rekey_add()). If protocol offload (e.g. ARP) is implemented, then also the TX sequence counter for the PTK must be updated, using the new ieee80211_set_key_tx_seq() function. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: add vif to testmode cmd

Pass the wdev from cfg80211 on to the driver as the vif if given and it's valid for the driver. Signed-off-by: David Spinadel Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: add control port protocol TX control flag

2013-08-12T12:09:29+00:00

A lot of drivers check the frame protocol for ETH_P_PAE, for various reasons (like making those more reliable). Add a new flags bitmap to the TX control info and a new flag indicating the control port protocol is in use to let all drivers also apply such logic to other control port protocols, should they be configured. Also use the new flag in the iwlwifi drivers. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: add channel switch command and beacon callbacks

2013-08-01T16:30:33+00:00

The count field in CSA must be decremented with each beacon transmitted. This patch implements the functionality for drivers using ieee80211_beacon_get(). Other drivers must call back manually after reaching count == 0. This patch also contains the handling and finish worker for the channel switch command, and mac80211/chanctx code to allow to change a channel definition of an active channel context.

cfg80211.h/mac80211.h: Remove extern from function prototypes

2013-08-01T00:50:02+00:00

There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern in the kernel sources. Standardize on not using extern for function prototypes. Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern. extern is assumed by the compiler. Its use is as unnecessary as using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block. Reflow modified prototypes to 80 columns. Signed-off-by: Joe Perches Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
