| * regdb: Generalize the mW to dBm power conversionchaitanya.mgit@gmail.com2014-05-271-12/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Generalize the power conversion from mW to dBm using log. This should fix the below compilation error for country NO which adds a new power value 2000mW which is not handled earlier.

| * cfg80211: send events when devices are added/removedJohannes Berg2014-05-263-7/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We're currently sending NEW_WIPHY events for renames (which is a bit odd, but now can't be changed), but also send them for really new devices that register. Also send DEL_WIPHY events when a device is removed, the event ID for this was already reserved. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

| * cfg80211: allow RSSI compensationEmmanuel Grumbach2014-05-221-4/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Channels in 2.4GHz band overlap, this means that if we send a probe request on channel 1 and then move to channel 2, we will hear the probe response on channel 2. In this case, the RSSI will be lower than if we had heard it on the channel on which it was sent (1 in this case). The firmware / low level driver can parse the channel in the DS IE or HT IE and compensate the RSSI so that it will still have a valid value even if we heard the frame on an adjacent channel. This can be done up to a certain offset. Add this offset as a configuration for the low level driver. A low level driver that can compensate the low RSSI in this case should assign the maximal offset for which the RSSI value is still valid.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Users may need information about the expected throughput towards a given peer. This value is supposed to consider the size overhead generated by the 802.11 header. This value is exported in kbps through the get_station() API by including it into the station_info object. Moreover, it is sent to user space when replying to the nl80211 GET_STATION command. This information will be useful to the batman-adv module which will use it for its new metric computation.

This isn't breaking the API since userspace can continue to use nla_put_u16 for this attributes, which is equivalent to a single element u16 array. In addition advertise max number of supported CSA counters. This is needed when using CSA and eCSA IEs together.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Current code checks if the 20MHz bandwidth is allowed for particular channel -- if it is not, the channel is disabled. Since we need to use 5/10 MHz channels, this code is modified in the way that the default bandwidth to check is 5MHz. If the maximum bandwidth allowed by the channel is smaller than 5MHz, the channel is disabled. Otherwise the channel is used and the flags are set according to the bandwidth allowed by the channel.

When channel attributes are reported to user-space, make sure to not break old tools, i.e. if the 'split wiphy dump' is enabled, report the extra attributes (if present) describing the bandwidth restrictions. If the 'split wiphy dump' is not enabled, completely omit those channels that have flags set to either IEEE80211_CHAN_NO_10MHZ or IEEE80211_CHAN_NO_20MHZ.

This means that: 1. A station interface connection to an AP on channel 165 allows the instantiation of a P2P GO on channels 149-165. 2.

Without this if a regulatory request failed to get processed by userspace we wouldn't be able to re-process it later. An example situation that can lead to an unprocessed last_request is enabling cfg80211 to be built-in to the kernel, not enabling CFG80211_INTERNAL_REGDB and the CRDA binary not being available at the time the udev rule that kicks of CRDA triggers. In such a situation we want to let some cfg80211 triggers eventually kick CRDA for us again. Without this if the first cycle attempt to kick off CRDA failed we'd be stuck without the ability to change process any further regulatory domains. cfg80211 will trigger re-processing of the regulatory queue whenever schedule_work(&reg_work) is called, currently this happens when: * suspend / resume * disconnect * a beacon hint gets triggered (non DFS 5 GHz AP found) * a regulatory request gets added to the queue We don't have any specific opportunistic late boot triggers to address a late mount of where CRDA resides though, adding that should be done separately through another patch. Without an opportunistic fix then this fix relies at least one of the triggeres above to happen. Reported-by: Sander Eikelenboom <linux@eikelenboom.it> Signed-off-by: Luis R.

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.

* | cfg80211: Add indoor only and GO concurrent channel attributesDavid Spinadel2014-04-092-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The FCC are clarifying some soft configuration requirements, which among other include the following: 1. Indoor operation, where a device can use channels requiring indoor operation, subject to that it can guarantee indoor operation, i.e., the device is connected to AC Power or the device is under the control of a local master that is acting as an AP and is connected to AC Power. 2. Concurrent GO operation, where devices may instantiate a P2P GO while they are under the guidance of an authorized master. For example, on a channel on which a BSS is connected to an authorized master, i.e., with DFS and radar detection capability in the UNII band. See https://apps.fcc.gov/eas/comments/GetPublishedDocument.html?id=327&tn=528122 Add support for advertising Indoor-only and GO-Concurrent channel properties.

* | cfg80211: slightly clean up of cfg80211_sme_connect()Zhao, Gang2014-04-091-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Wdev->ssid_len has already been set in cfg80211_connect() and is equal to connect->ssid_len. Use wdev->ssid_len instead of connect->ssid_len so it will be consistent with previous ssid assignment statement. If bss is found in cfg80211_get_conn_bss(), wdev->conn->state is set to CFG80211_CONN_AUTHENTICATE_NEXT in there. So it's not needed to set it manually to CFG80211_CONN_AUTHENTICATE_NEXT if bss is found in that function.

* | cfg80211: regulatory: use RCU_INIT_POINTERMonam Agarwal2014-04-091-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | rcu_assign_pointer() ensures that the initialization of a structure is carried out before storing a pointer to that structure. However, in the case that NULL is assigned there's no structure to initialize so using RCU_INIT_POINTER instead is safe and more efficient.

* | cfg80211: allow userspace to take ownership of interfacesJohannes Berg2014-04-093-1/+82
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When dynamically creating interfaces from userspace, e.g. for P2P usage, such interfaces are usually owned by the process that created them, i.e. wpa_supplicant. Should wpa_supplicant crash, such interfaces will often cease operating properly and cause problems on restarting the process. To avoid this problem, introduce an ownership concept for interfaces. If an interface is owned by a netlink socket, then it will be destroyed if the netlink socket is closed for any reason, including if the process it belongs to crashed. This gives us a race-free way to get rid of any such interfaces. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
