2015-01-08cfg80211: add nl80211 beacon-only statisticsJohannes Berg1-0/+2
Add these two values: * BEACON_RX: number of beacons received from this peer * BEACON_SIGNAL_AVG: signal strength average for beacons only These can then be used for Android Lollipop's statistics request. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2015-01-08cfg80211: remove enum station_info_flagsJohannes Berg1-85/+48
This is really just duplicating the list of information that's already available in the nl80211 attribute, so remove the list. Two small changes are needed: * remove STATION_INFO_ASSOC_REQ_IES complete, but the length (assoc_req_ies_len) can be used instead * add NL80211_STA_INFO_RX_DROP_MISC which exists internally but not in nl80211 yet This gets rid of the duplicate maintenance of the two lists.

2015-01-08cfg80211: allow including station info in delete eventJohannes Berg1-22/+16
When a station is removed, its statistics may be interesting to userspace, for example for further aggregation of statistics of all stations that ever connected to an AP. Introduce a new cfg80211_del_sta_sinfo() function (and make the cfg80211_del_sta() a static inline calling it) to allow passing a struct station_info along with this, and send the data in the nl80211 event message.

2015-01-08cfg80211: allow survey data to return global dataJohannes Berg1-13/+18
Not all devices are able to report survey data (particularly time spent for various operations) per channel. As all these statistics already exist in survey data, allow such devices to report them (if userspace requested it) Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2015-01-08cfg80211: remove "channel" from survey namesJohannes Berg1-15/+15
All of the survey data is (currently) per channel anyway, so having the word "channel" in the name does nothing. In the next patch I'll introduce global data to the survey, where the word "channel" is actually confusing. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2014-12-17cfg80211: allow wiphy specific regdomain managementJonathan Doron1-18/+31
Add a new regulatory flag that allows a driver to manage regdomain changes/updates for its own wiphy. A self-managed wiphys only employs regulatory information obtained from the FW and driver and does not use other cfg80211 sources like beacon-hints, country-code IEs and hints from other devices on the same system. Conversely, a self-managed wiphy does not share its regulatory hints with other devices in the system. If a system contains several devices, one or more of which are self-managed, there might be contradictory regulatory settings between them. Usage of flag is generally discouraged. Only use it if the FW/driver is incompatible with non-locally originated hints. A new API lets the driver send a complete regdomain, to be applied on its wiphy only. After a wiphy-specific regdomain change takes place, usermode will get a new type of change notification. The regulatory core also takes care enforce regulatory restrictions, in case some interfaces are on forbidden channels.

If the userspace passes a malformed sched scan request (or a net detect wowlan configuration) by adding a NL80211_ATTR_SCHED_SCAN_MATCH attribute without any nested matchsets, a NULL pointer dereference will occur.

Introduce commands to initiate and cancel TDLS channel-switching. Once TDLS channel-switching is started, the lower level driver is responsible for continually initiating channel-switch operations and returning to the base (AP) channel to listen for beacons from time to time.

This is needed when we want a P2P GO interface to follow the channel of a station, for example. Modify the code so that all interfaces can send CSA notifications.

This allows userspace to take action, for instance, by requesting other interfaces to switch channel as necessary. This patch introduces a function that allows the drivers to send this notification. It should be used when the driver starts processing a channel switch initiated by a remote device (eg. when a STA receives a CSA from the AP) and when it successfully starts a userspace-triggered channel switch (eg. when hostapd triggers a channel swith in the AP).

This can be misleading though, as the command was also designed to, in the future, support pure 802.11 TSPECs. Expose the WMM-TSPEC feature flag to nl80211 so later we can also expose an 802.11-TSPEC feature flag (if needed) to differentiate the two cases.

Also, I'm changing a number of places to clear key memory when it's freed and Intel claims copyright for code they developed." For the bluetooth bits, Johan says: "Here are some more patches intended for 3.18. Most of them are cleanups or fixes for SMP. The only exception is a fix for BR/EDR L2CAP fixed channels which should now work better together with the L2CAP information request procedure." For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says: "I fix here dvm which was broken by my last pull request. Arik continues to work on TDLS and Luca solved a few issues in CT-Kill. Eyal keeps digging into rate scaling code, more to come soon. Besides this, nothing really special here."

2014-09-11cfg80211: add WMM traffic stream APIJohannes Berg1-0/+109
Add nl80211 and driver API to validate, add and delete traffic streams with appropriate settings. The API calls for userspace doing the action frame handshake with the peer, and then allows only to set up the parameters in the driver. To avoid setting up a session only to tear it down again, the validate API is provided, but the real usage later can still fail so userspace must be prepared for that.

2014-09-11cfg80211: clear nl80211 messages carrying keys after processingJohannes Berg1-4/+21
Clear any nl80211 messages that might contain keys after processing them to avoid leaving their data in memory "forever" after they've been freed. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2014-09-11cfg80211: don't put kek/kck/replay counter on the stackJohannes Berg1-7/+3
There's no need to put the values on the stack, just pass a pointer to the data in the nl80211 message. This reduces stack usage and avoids potential issues with putting sensitive data on the stack. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2014-09-11cfg80211: clear connect keys when freeing themJohannes Berg1-4/+4
When freeing the connect keys, clear the memory to avoid having the key material stick around in memory "forever". Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2014-09-05cfg80211: enable dynack through nl80211Lorenzo Bianconi1-0/+11
Enable ACK timeout estimation algorithm (dynack) using mac80211 set_coverage_class API. Dynack is activated passing coverage class equals to -1 to lower drivers and it is automatically disabled setting valid value for coverage class. Define NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_DYN_ACK flag attribute to enable dynack from userspace. In order to activate dynack NL80211_FEATURE_ACKTO_ESTIMATION feature flag must be set by lower drivers to indicate dynack capability.

2014-09-05nl80211: Add flag attribute for RRM connectionsAssaf Krauss1-0/+17
Add a flag attribute to use in associations, for tagging the target connection as supporting RRM. It is the responsibility of upper layers to set this flag only if both the underlying device, and the target network indeed support RRM. To be used in ASSOCIATE and CONNECT commands.
