2008-06-19mac80211: detect driver tx bugsJohannes Berg1-1/+8
When a driver rejects a frame in it's ->tx() callback, it must also stop queues, otherwise mac80211 can go into a loop here. Detect this situation and abort the loop after five retries, warning about the driver bug. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-06-18Revert "mac80211: Use skb_header_cloned() on TX path."David S. Miller1-2/+2
This reverts commit 608961a5eca8d3c6bd07172febc27b5559408c5d. The problem is that the mac80211 stack not only needs to be able to muck with the link-level headers, it also might need to mangle all of the packet data if doing sw wireless encryption. This fixes kernel bugzilla #10903. Thanks to Didier Raboud (for the bugzilla report), Andrew Prince (for bisecting), Johannes Berg (for bringing this bisection analysis to my attention), and Ilpo (for trying to analyze this purely from the TCP side). In 2.6.27 we can take another stab at this, by using something like skb_cow_data() when the TX path of mac80211 ends up with a non-NULL tx->key. The ESP protocol code in the IPSEC stack can be used as a model for implementation. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2008-06-14mac80211: eliminate IBSS warning in rate_lowest_index()Vladimir Koutny3-7/+20
In IBSS mode prior to join/creation of new IBSS it is possible that a frame from unknown station is received and an ibss_add_sta() is called. This will cause a warning in rate_lowest_index() since the list of supported rates of our station is not initialized yet. The fix is to add ibss stations with a rate we received that frame at; this single-element set will be extended later based on beacon data. Also there is no need to store stations from a foreign IBSS. Signed-off-by: Vladimir Koutny <vlado@ksp.sk> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2008-06-03mac80211: allow disable FAT in specific configurationsEmmanuel Grumbach2-2/+46

When FAT channel configuration is not permitted, FAT channel should be reported as not supported in the capabilities of the HT IE in association request.

2008-05-29mac80211: fix alignment issue with compare_ether_addr()Senthil Balasubramanian3-6/+6
This addresses an alignment issue with compare_ether_addr(). The addresses passed to compare_ether_addr should be two bytes aligned. It may function properly in x86 platform. However may not work properly on IA-64 or ARM processor. This also fixes a typo in mlme.c where the sk_buff struct name is incorect.

2008-05-29mac80211: Fix for NULL pointer dereference in sta_info_get()Senthil Balasubramanian1-2/+2
This addresses a NULL pointer dereference in sta_info_get(). TID and sta_info are extracted in ADDBA Timer expiry function through the timer handler's argument. The problem is extracging the TID (which was stored in timer_to_tid[] array of type "u8") through "int *" typecast which may also yield unwanted bytes for the MSB of TID that results in incorrect sta_info and ieee80211_local pointers. ieee80211_local pointer is NULL as illustrated below, it crashes in sta_info_get(). The problem started when extracting ieee80211_local pointer out of sta_info iteself and eventually crashed in stat_info_get(). The proper way to fix is to change the data type of TID to u8 instead of u16. However changing all the occurences requires some prototype changes as well. We should fix this in upcoming patches.

2008-05-22mac80211: dont allow fragmentation and requeuing on A-MPDU queuesJohannes Berg2-3/+22
There really is no reason for a driver to reject a frame on an A-MPDU queue when it can stop that queue for any period of time and is given frames one by one. Hence, disallow it with a big warning and reduce mac80211-internal state. Also add a warning when we try to fragment a frame destined for an A-MPDU queue and drop it, the actual bug needs to be fixed elsewhere but I'm not exactly sure how to yet.
