2013-11-25cfg80211: check regulatory request alpha2 earlyLuis R. Rodriguez1-1/+1
Currently nl80211 allows userspace to send the kernel a bogus regulatory domain with at most 32 rules set and it won't reject it until after its allocated memory. Let's be smart about it and take advantage that the last_request is now available under RTNL and check if the alpha2 matches an expected request and reject any bogus userspace requests prior to hitting the memory allocator.

2013-11-25cfg80211: enforce disabling channels by custom or strict settingsLuis R. Rodriguez1-3/+14
If a custom regulatory domain is passed and if a rule for a channel indicates it should be disabled that channel should always remain disabled as per its documentation and design. Likewise if WIPHY_FLAG_STRICT_REGULATORY flag is set and a regulatory_hint() is issued if a channel is disabled that channel should remain disabled. Without this change only drivers that set the _orig flags appropriately on their own would ensure disallowed channels remaind disabled. This helps drivers save code by relying on the APIS provided to entrust channels that should not be enabled be respected by only having to use wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory() or regulatory_hint() with the WIPHY_FLAG_STRICT_REGULATORY set. If wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory() is used together with WIPHY_FLAG_STRICT_REGULATORY and a regulatory_hint() issued later, the incoming regulatory domain can override previously set _orig parameters from the initial custom regulatory setting.

2013-11-25cfg80211: force WIPHY_FLAG_CUSTOM_REGULATORY on wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory()Luis R. Rodriguez1-0/+4
wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory() implies WIPHY_FLAG_CUSTOM_REGULATORY but we never enforced it, do that now and warn if the driver didn't set it. All drivers should be following this today already. Having WIPHY_FLAG_CUSTOM_REGULATORY does not however mean you will use wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory() though, you may have your own _orig value set up tools / helpers. The intel drivers are examples of this type of driver. Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <mcgrof@do-not-panic.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2013-10-11cfg80211: enable regulatory hints for strict custom settingsLuis R. Rodriguez1-0/+1
If we have a wiphy with an ISO3166-alpha2 regulatory domain programmed with the strict flag set we wait until the wiphy gets its wiphy->regd programmed before allowing regulatory domains hints other than country IE hints from processing on the wiphy. The existing check however discards the possibility of custom regulatory domains having also used the strict flag and these will not have the wiphy->regd set. Custom strict regulatory domains never set the wiphy->regd though as such currently all regulatory hints other than country IE hints are being ignored on these wiphys. All custom strict regulatory domains set the wiphy with the WIPHY_FLAG_CUSTOM_REGULATORY and use wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory(). Enhance the check for the strict ISO3166-alpha2 regulatory domain case by exempting the WIPHY_FLAG_CUSTOM_REGULATORY case. This will enable other regulatory hints to be processed now for these strict custom regulatory domains. Cc: smihir@qti.qualcomm.com Cc: tushnimb@qca.qualcomm.com Signed-off-by: Luis R.

2013-10-01regulatory: enable channels 52-64 and 100-144 for world roamingJohannes Berg1-2/+12
If allowed in a country, these channels typically require DFS so mark them as such. Channel 144 is a bit special, it's coming into use now to allow more VHT 80 channels, but world roaming with passive scanning is acceptable anyway. It seems fairly unlikely that it'll be used as the control channel for a VHT AP, but it needs to be present to allow a full VHT connection to an AP that uses it as one of the secondary channels. Also enable VHT 160 on these channels, and also for channels 36-48 to be able to use VHT 160 there. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2013-05-25regulatory: remove reg_mutexJohannes Berg1-57/+19
The reg_mutex is similar to the ones I just removed in cfg80211 but even less useful since it protects global data, and we hold the RTNL in all places (except module unload) already. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2013-05-25regulatory: use RCU in regulatory_hint_11d()Johannes Berg1-14/+16

2013-05-25cfg80211: vastly simplify lockingJohannes Berg1-24/+12
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.

2013-04-16wireless: regulatory: fix channel disabling race conditionJohannes Berg1-1/+1
When a full scan 2.4 and 5 GHz scan is scheduled, but then the 2.4 GHz part of the scan disables a 5.2 GHz channel due to, e.g. receiving country or frequency information, that 5.2 GHz channel might already be in the list of channels to scan next. Then, when the driver checks if it should do a passive scan, that will return false and attempt an active scan. This is not only wrong but can also lead to the iwlwifi device firmware crashing since it checks regulatory as well. Fix this by not setting the channel flags to just disabled but rather OR'ing in the disabled flag. That way, even if the race happens, the channel will be scanned passively which is still (mostly) correct. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2013-01-09regulatory: fix restore_regulatory_settingsJohannes Berg1-1/+1
My commit 379b82f4c9dc6e67bf61aa61b096c06a2f320f60 ("regulatory: pass new regdomain to reset function") broke the restore_regulatory_settings() function due to a logic change. Consider this change: - reset_regdomains(true); - cfg80211_regdomain = cfg80211_world_regdom; + reset_regdomains(true, cfg80211_world_regdom); This looks innocent enough, until you realise that the called function (reset_regdomains) also resets the cfg80211_world_regdom pointer, so that the old version of the code would use the new object it pointed to and the new version of the code uses the old object. This lead to a double-free of this object. Since reset_regdomains() sets it to &world_regdom, use that directly.

2013-01-03cfg80211: do not process beacon hints if one is already queuedLuis R. Rodriguez1-0/+19
Regulatory beacon hints are used to help with world roaming and as it is right now we learn from a beacon hint processed on one wiphy to all other wiphys. The processing of beacon hints however is scheduled and if we have a lot of interfaces we may hit the case that we'll queue a the same beacon hint many times until its processed. To avoid this do a lookup on the queued up beacon hints prior to adding a new beacon hint. If the beacon hint is removed from the pending reg beacon hint list then it would be processed and we'd ensure all wiphys would have learned from it, if its on the pending reg beacon list we'd now find it prior to it being processed.

2013-01-03regulatory: remove handling of channel bandwidthJohannes Berg1-30/+14

2013-01-03regulatory: fix reg_is_valid_request handlingJohannes Berg1-10/+11
There's a bug with the world regulatory domain, it can be updated any time which is different from all other regdomains that can only be updated once after a request for them. Fix this by adding a check for "processed" to the reg_is_valid_request() function and clear that when doing a request. While looking at this I also found another locking bug, last_request is protected by the reg_mutex not the cfg80211_mutex so the code in nl80211 is racy. Remove that code as it only tries to prevent an allocation in an error case, which isn't necessary. Then the function can also become static and locking in nl80211 can have a smaller scope. Also change __set_regdom() to do the checks earlier and not different for world/other regdomains. Acked-by: Luis R.
