ieee80211_assign_chanctx() checks if local->use_chanctx is true, so the two code block related to ieee80211_assign_chanctx() can be moved into above if clause, emphasize that these code are executed only if local->use_chanctx is true.

2014-04-25mac80211: compute chanctx refcount on-the-flyMichal Kazior
It doesn't make much sense to store refcount in the chanctx structure. One still needs to hold chanctx_mtx to get the value safely. Besides, refcount isn't on performance critical paths. This will make implementing chanctx reservation refcounting a little easier. Signed-off-by: Michal Kazior <michal.kazior@tieto.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2014-04-25mac80211: fix racy usage of chanctx->refcountMichal Kazior
Channel context refcount is protected by chanctx_mtx. Accessing the value without holding the mutex is racy. RCU section didn't guarantee anything here. Theoretically ieee80211_channel_switch() could fail to see refcount change and read "1" instead of, e.g. "2". This means mac80211 could accept CSA even though it shouldn't have.

2014-04-25mac80211: improve chanctx reservation lookupMichal Kazior
Use a separate function to look for reservation chanctx. For multi-interface/channel reservation search sematics differ slightly.

2014-04-25mac80211: improve find_chanctx() for reservationsMichal Kazior
This allows new vifs to be assigned to a chanctx as long as chanctx's reservation chandefs (if any) and chanctx's current chandef (implied by assigned vifs at the time, if any) and the new vif chandef are all compatible. This implies it is impossible to assign a new vif to an in-place reservation chanctx. This gives no advantages for single-channel hardware. It makes sense for multi-channel hardware only.

2014-04-22mac80211: mesh: always use the latest target_snBob Copeland
When a path target responds to a path request, its response always contains the most up-to-date information; accordingly, it should use the latest target_sn, regardless of net_traversal_jiffies(). Otherwise, only the first path response is considered when constructing a path, as it will have the highest target_sn of all replies during that period.

2014-04-22mac80211: fix mesh_add_rsn_ie IE finding loopBob Copeland
Previously, the code to copy the RSN IE from the mesh config would increment its pointer by one in the loop instead of by the element length, so there was the potential for mistaking another IE's data fields as the RSN IE. cfg80211_find_ie() exists, so just use that.

2014-04-09mac80211: allow reservation of a running chanctxLuciano Coelho
With single-channel drivers, we need to be able to change a running chanctx if we want to use chanctx reservation. Not all drivers may be able to do this, so add a flag that indicates support for it. Changing a running chanctx can also be used as an optimization in multi-channel drivers when the context needs to be reserved for future usage. Introduce IEEE80211_CHANCTX_RESERVED chanctx mode to mark a channel as reserved so nobody else can use it (since we know it's going to change). In the future, we may allow several vifs to use the same reservation as long as they plan to use the chanctx on the same future channel.

2014-04-09mac80211: implement chanctx reservationLuciano Coelho
In order to support channel switch with multiple vifs and multiple contexts, we implement a concept of channel context reservation. This allows us to reserve a channel context to be used later. The reservation functionality is not tied directly to channel switch and may be used in other situations (eg. reserving a channel context during IBSS join). We first check if an existing compatible context exists and if it does, we reserve it. If there is no compatible context we create a new one and reserve it. Additionally, split ieee80211_vif_copy_chanctx_to_vlans() so we can call it while already holding the chanctx mutex.

2014-04-09mac80211: refactor ieee80211_assign/unassign_vif_chanctx into oneLuciano Coelho
Combine the functions into one, so that we can switch from one context to the other without having to unassign and assign separately. This is needed by the channel reservation functionality because otherwise we have a small period of time when the chanctx is set to NULL, which can cause problems if someone else is trying to dereference it.

2014-04-09mac80211: split ieee80211_vif_change_channel in twoLuciano Coelho
ieee80211_vif_change_channel() locks chanctx_mtx. When implementing channel reservation for CS, we will need to call the function to change channel when the lock is already held, so split the part that requires the lock out and leave the locking in the original function.

2014-04-09mac80211: protect AP VLAN list with local->mtxMichal Kazior
It was impossible to change chanctx of master AP for AP VLANs because the copy function requires RTNL which can't be simply taken in mac80211 code due to possible deadlocks. This is required for future chanctx reservation that re-bind vifs to new chanctx. This requires safe AP VLAN iteration without RTNL. Now VLANs can be iterated while holding either RTNL or local->mtx because the list is modified while holding both of these locks.

Get rid of the cfg80211_can_add_interface() and cfg80211_can_change_interface() functions by moving that functionality to mac80211. With this patch all interface combination checks are now out of cfg80211 (except for the channel switch case which will be addressed in a future commit). Additionally, modify the ieee80211_check_combinations() function so that an undefined chandef can be passed, in order to use it before a channel is defined.

2014-04-09cfg80211: Enable GO operation on additional channelsIlan Peer
Allow GO operation on a channel marked with IEEE80211_CHAN_GO_CONCURRENT iff there is an active station interface that is associated to an AP operating on the same channel in the 2 GHz band or the same UNII band (in the 5 GHz band). This relaxation is not allowed if the channel is marked with IEEE80211_CHAN_RADAR. Note that this is a permissive approach to the FCC definitions, that require a clear assessment that the device operating the AP is an authorized master, i.e., with radar detection and DFS capabilities. It is assumed that such restrictions are enforced by user space. Furthermore, it is assumed, that if the conditions that allowed for the operation of the GO on such a channel change, i.e., the station interface disconnected from the AP, it is the responsibility of user space to evacuate the GO from the channel.

2014-04-09mac80211: fix radar_enabled propagationMichal Kazior
If chandef had non-HT width it was possible for radar_enabled update to not be propagated properly through drv_config(). This happened because ieee80211_hw_conf_chan() would never see different local->hw.conf.chandef and local->_oper_chandef. This wasn't a problem with HT chandefs because _oper_chandef width is reset to non-HT in ieee80211_free_chanctx() making ieee80211_hw_conf_chan() to kick in. This problem led (at least) ath10k to not start CAC if prior CAC was cancelled and both CACs were requested for identical non-HT chandefs.

2014-04-09mac80211: fix software remain-on-channel implementationJohannes Berg
Jouni reported that when doing off-channel transmissions mixed with on-channel transmissions, the on-channel ones ended up on the off-channel in some cases. The reason for that is that during the refactoring of the off- channel code, I lost the part that stopped all activity and as a consequence the on-channel frames (including data frames) were no longer queued but would be transmitted on the temporary channel. Fix this by simply restoring the lost activity stop call.

2014-03-19cfg80211/mac80211: ignore signal if the frame was heard on wrong channelEmmanuel Grumbach
On 2.4Ghz band, the channels overlap since the delta between different channels is 5Mhz while the width of the receiver is 20Mhz (at least). This means that we can hear beacons or probe responses from adjacent channels. These frames will have a significant lower RSSI which will feed all kinds of logic with inaccurate data. An obvious example is the roaming algorithm that will think our AP is getting weak and will try to move to another AP. In order to avoid this, update the signal only if the frame has been heard on the same channel as the one advertised by the AP in its DS / HT IEs. We refrain from updating the values only if the AP is already in the BSS list so that we will still have a valid (but inaccurate) value if the AP was heard on an adjacent channel only. To achieve this, stop taking the channel from DS / HT IEs in mac80211. The DS / HT IEs is taken into account to discard the frame if it was received on a disabled channel. This can happen due to the same phenomenon: the frame is sent on channel 12, but heard on channel 11 while channel 12 can be disabled on certain devices. Since this check is done in cfg80211, stop even checking this in mac80211.
