* mac80211: fils_aead: Use crypto api CMAC shash rather than bare cipherArd Biesheuvel2017-02-081-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Switch the FILS AEAD code to use a cmac(aes) shash instantiated by the crypto API rather than reusing the open coded implementation in aes_cmac_vector(). This makes the code more understandable, and allows platforms to implement cmac(aes) in a more secure (*) and efficient way than is typically possible when using the AES cipher directly. So replace the crypto_cipher by a crypto_shash, and update the aes_s2v() routine to call the shash interface directly. * In particular, the generic table based AES implementation is sensitive to known-plaintext timing attacks on the key, to which AES based MAC algorithms are especially vulnerable, given that their plaintext is not usually secret. Time invariant alternatives are available (e.g., based on SIMD algorithms), but may incur a setup cost that is prohibitive when operating on a single block at a time, which is why they don't usually expose the cipher API.

* mac80211: use DECLARE_EWMAJohannes Berg2015-08-141-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | Instead of using the out-of-line average calculation, use the new DECLARE_EWMA() macro to declare a signal EWMA, and use that. This actually *reduces* the code size slightly (on x86-64) while also reducing the station info size by 80 bytes. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
* mac80211: move dot11 counters under MAC80211_DEBUG_COUNTERSJohannes Berg2015-05-051-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Since these counters can only be read through debugfs, there's very little point in maintaining them all the time. However, even just making them depend on debugfs is pointless - they're not normally used. Additionally a number of them aren't even concurrency safe. Move them under MAC80211_DEBUG_COUNTERS so they're normally not even compiled in. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

* mac80211: 802.11p OCB mode supportRostislav Lisovy2014-11-041-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds 802.11p OCB (Outside the Context of a BSS) mode support. When communicating in OCB mode a mandatory wildcard BSSID (48 '1' bits) is used. The EDCA parameters handling function was changed to support 802.11p specific values. The insertion of a newly discovered STAs is done in the similar way as in the IBSS mode -- through the deferred insertion. The OCB mode uses a periodic 'housekeeping task' for expiration of disconnected STAs (in the similar manner as in the MESH mode). New Kconfig option for verbose OCB debugging outputs is added.

* mac80211: minstrel_ht: add basic support for VHT rates <= 3SS@80MHzKarl Beldan2014-10-211-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the new CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_MINSTREL_VHT is not set (default 'N'), there is no behavioral change including in sampling and MCS_GROUP_RATES remains 8.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add routines to - maintain a PS mode for each peer and a non-peer PS mode - indicate own PS mode in transmitted frames - track neighbor STAs power modes - buffer frames when neighbors are in PS mode - add TIM and Awake Window IE to beacons - release frames in Mesh Peer Service Periods Add local_pm to sta_info to represent the link-specific power mode at this station towards the remote station. When a peer link is established, use the default power mode stored in mesh config. Update the PS status if the peering status of a neighbor changes. Maintain a mesh power mode for non-peer mesh STAs. Set the non-peer power mode to active mode during peering. Authenticated mesh peering is currently not working when either node is configured to be in power save mode. Indicate the current power mode in transmitted frames. Use QoS Nulls to indicate mesh power mode transitions. For performance reasons, calls to the function setting the frame flags are placed in HWMP routing routines, as there the STA pointer is already available. Add peer_pm to sta_info to represent the peer's link-specific power mode towards the local station. Add nonpeer_pm to represent the peer's power mode towards all non-peer stations. Track power modes based on received frames. Add the ps_data structure to ieee80211_if_mesh (for TIM map, PS neighbor counter and group-addressed frame buffer). Set WLAN_STA_PS flag for STA in PS mode to use the unicast frame buffering routines in the tx path. Update num_sta_ps to buffer and release group-addressed frames after DTIM beacons. Announce the awake window duration in beacons if in light or deep sleep mode towards any peer or non-peer. Create a TIM IE similarly to AP mode and add it to mesh beacons. Parse received Awake Window IEs and check TIM IEs for buffered frames. Release frames towards peers in mesh Peer Service Periods. Use the corresponding trigger frames and monitor the MPSP status. Append a QoS Null as trigger frame if neccessary to properly end the MPSP. Currently, in HT channels MPSPs behave imperfectly and show large delay spikes and frame losses.

* mac80211: Implement mesh synchronization frameworkJavier Cardona2012-04-101-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds MBSS extensible synchronization framework (Sec. 13.13.2 of IEEE Std. 802.11-2012). The framework is implemented via an ops table which defines the following functions: rx_bcn_presp() - this is called every time a mesh beacon is received. adjust_tbtt() - this is called immediately before a beacon is about to be transmitted. The default neighbor offset synchronization defined in the standard is implemented. We also provide template functions for vendor specific methods. When neighbor offset synchronization is active (which is the default) mesh neighbors in the same MBSS will track timing offsets to each other and compensate clock drift. In our tests we observed that this mesh synchronization implementation successfully corrected drifts between stations of ~2PPM while introducing a jitter of ~20us. It is also possible to test this framework on mac80211_hwsim simulated phys to see how it behaves under different topologies, over poor links, etc. Signed-off-by: Marco Porsch <marco.porsch@s2005.tu-chemnitz.de> Signed-off-by: Pavel Zubarev <pavel.zubarev@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Javier Cardona <javier@cozybit.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes references to the option throughout the kernel. A new CONFIG_EMBEDDED option is added that automatically selects CONFIG_EXPERT when enabled and can be used in the future to isolate options that should only be considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc). Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes they are making should enable it.

For drivers like RTL8187 that don't supply their own RC algorithms, this will cause ieee80211_register_hw to fail (making the driver unusable). This will tell kconfig to provide a warning if no rate control algorithms have been selected.

This means we can also clean up mac80211's and iwm's Kconfig and make it possible to build them w/o wext now! RIP wext. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

* mac80211: driver operation debuggingJohannes Berg2009-07-241-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | This makes mac80211 use the event tracing framework to log all operations as given to the driver. This will need to be extended with more information, but as a start it should be good. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

| * mac80211: disable meshJohannes Berg2009-07-211-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | My kvm instance was complaining a lot about sleeping in atomic contexts in the mesh code, and it turns out that both mesh_path_add() and mpp_path_add() need to be able to sleep (they even use synchronize_rcu()!). I put in a might_sleep() to annotate that, but I see no way, at least right now, of actually making sure those functions are only called from process context since they are both called during TX and RX and the mesh code itself even calls them with rcu_read_lock() "held". Therefore, let's disable it completely for now. It's possible that I'm only seeing this because the hwsim's beaconing is broken and thus the peers aren't discovered right away, but it is possible that this happens even if beaconing is working, for a peer that doesn't exist or so. It should be possible to solve this by deferring the freeing of the tables to call_rcu() instead of using synchronize_rcu(), and also using atomic allocations, but maybe it makes more sense to rework the code to not call these from atomic contexts and defer more of the work to the workqueue. Right now, I can't work on either of those solutions though. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

* mac80211: enable PS by defaultJohannes Berg2009-04-221-0/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Enable PS by default (depending on Kconfig) -- rely on drivers to control the level using pm_qos. Due to the previous patch we turn off PS when necessary due to latency requirements. This has a Kconfig symbol so people can, if they really want, configure the default in their kernels. We may want to keep it at "default y" only in wireless-testing for a while. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
