Bertold Van den Bergh cc11729893 mac80211: Only accept data frames in OCB mode
Currently OCB mode accepts frames with bssid==broadcast and type!=beacon.
Some non-data frames are sent matching this, for example probe responses.
This results in unnecessary creation of STA entries.

Bob Copeland 0e0060fcfb mac80211: select an AID when creating new mesh STAs
Instead of using peer link id for AID, generate a new
AID when creating mesh STAs in the kernel peering manager.
This enables smaller TIM elements and more closely follows
the standard, and it also enables mesh to work on drivers
that require a valid AID when the STA is inserted (ath10k
firmware has this requirement, for example).

In the case of userspace-managed stations, we use the AID
from NL80211_CMD_NEW_STATION.

Bob Copeland a69bd8e60b mac80211: mesh: separate plid and aid concepts
According to 802.11-2012 13.3.1, a mesh STA should assign an AID
upon receipt of a mesh peering open frame rather than using the link
id of the peer.  Using the peer link id has two potential issues:
it may not be unique among the peers, and by its nature it is random,
so the TIM may not compress well.

In preparation for allocating it properly, use sta->sta.aid, but keep
the existing behavior of using the plid in the aid we send.

Eliad Peller b0485e9f3d mac80211: clear local->suspended before calling drv_resume()
Currently, mac80211 calls drv_resume() on wowlan resume,
but drops any incoming frame until local->suspended is
cleared later on.

This requires the low-level driver to support a new state,
in which it is expected to fully work (as it was resumed)
but not passing rx frames yet (as they will be dropped).

iwlwifi (and probably other drivers as well) has issues
supporting such mode.

Since in the wowlan case we already short-circuit
ieee80211_reconfig, there's nothing that prevents us from
clearing local->suspend before calling drv_resume(),
and letting the low-level driver work normally.

Arik Nemtsov d51c2ea370 mac80211: TDLS: correctly configure SMPS state
The IEEE802.11-2012 specification is vague regarding SMPS operation during
TDLS. It does not define a clear way to transition between SMPS states.

To avoid interop issues, set SMPS to off when TDLS peers are connected.
Accomplish this by extending the definition of the AUTOMATIC state. If the
driver forces a state other than OFF, disconnect all TDLS peers.

While at it, avoid changing the SMPS state of the peer STA. We have no
way to control it, so try and behave correctly towards it.

Move the TDLS peer-teardown function to where the rest of the TDLS code
resides.

Bob Copeland 3633ebebab mac80211: enable assoc check for mesh interfaces
We already set a station to be associated when peering completes, both
in user space and in the kernel.  Thus we should always have an
associated sta before sending data frames to that station.

Failure to check assoc state can cause crashes in the lower-level driver
due to transmitting unicast data frames before driver sta structures
(e.g. ampdu state in ath9k) are initialized.  This occurred when
forwarding in the presence of fixed mesh paths: frames were transmitted
to stations with whom we hadn't yet completed peering.

Jesse Jones d8f0300a7a mac80211: mac80211: Check SN for deactivated mpaths
When processing a PREQ or PREP it's critical to use the incoming SN. If
that is improperly done routing loops and other types of badness can
happen. But the code was always processing path messages for deactivated
paths. This path fixes that so that if we have a valid SN then we use it
to verify that it is a message we can accept. For reference the relevant
section of the standard is 13.10.8.4 which doesn't address the deactivated
path case at all.

I also included a special case for when our peer reboots or restarts
networking. This is an important case because without it there can be a
very long delay before we accept path messages from that peer. It's also a
simple case and intimately associated with processing messages for
deactivated paths so I used one patch instead of two.

Jesse Jones d82547106f mac80211: mesh: don't invalidate SN on discovery failure
The 2012 spec mentions that path SNs can be invalid when created (see
section 13.10.8.4 table 13-9) but AFAICT never talks about invalidating
SNs. Which makes sense: if we have figured out the path to a target at a
certain SN then we want to remember that fact. Failing to do so can lead
to routing loops because if we don't have a valid SN then we have no way
of knowing whether an incoming path message leads to or away from the
target.

However currently when discovery fails we zero out mpath->flags which
clears MESH_PATH_SN_VALID. This patch fixes that so that only the
discovery relevant flags are cleared.

Arik Nemtsov 0fabfaafec mac80211: upgrade BW of TDLS peers when possible
Define a station chandef, to be used for wider-bw TDLS peers. When both
peers support the feature, upgrade the channel bandwidth to the maximum
allowed by both peers and regulatory. Currently widths up to 80MHz are
supported in the 5GHz band.

When a TDLS peer connects/disconnects recalculate the channel type of the
current chanctx.
Make the chanctx width calculation consider wider-bw TDLS peers and
similarly fix the max_required_bw calculation for the chanctx min_def.
Since the sta->bandwidth is calculated only later on, take
bss_conf.chandef.width as the minimal width for station interface.

Set the upgraded channel width in the VHT-operation set during TDLS setup.

Allow a device to specify support for the TDLS wider-bandwidth feature.
Indicate this support during TDLS setup in the ext-capab IE and set an

This feature gives TDLS peers the ability to use a wider channel than
the base width of the BSS. For instance VHT capable TDLS peers connected
on a 20MHz channel can extend the channel to 80MHz, if regulatory
considerations allow it.

Do not cap the bandwidth of such stations by the current BSS channel width

Bob Copeland 2ea752cd2c mac80211: correct aid location in peering frames
According to 802.11-2012 8.5.16.3.2 AID comes directly after the
capability bytes in mesh peering confirm frames.  The existing
code, however, was adding a 2 byte offset to this location,
resulting in garbage data going out over the air.  Remove the
offset to fix it.

Johannes Berg d8d9008cfb mac80211: shut down interfaces before destroying interface list
If the hardware is unregistered while interfaces are up, mac80211 will
unregister all interfaces, which in turns causes mac80211 to be called
again to remove them all from the driver and eventually shut down the
hardware.

During this shutdown, however, it's currently already unsafe to iterate
the list of interfaces atomically, as the list is manipulated in an
unsafe manner. This puts an undue burden on the driver - it must stop
all its activities before calling ieee80211_unregister_hw(), while in
the normal stop path it can do all cleanup in the stop method. If, for
example, it's using the iteration during RX for some reason, it would
have to stop RX before unregistering to avoid crashes.

Fix this problem by closing all interfaces before unregistering them.
This will cause the driver stop to have completed before we manipulate
the interface list, and after the driver is stopped *and* has called
ieee80211_unregister_hw() it really musn't be iterating any more as
the memory will be freed as well.

Chaitanya T K 541b6ed7ce mac80211: wowlan: enable powersave if suspend while ps-polling
If for any reason we're in the middle of PS-polling or awake after
TX due to dynamic powersave while going to suspend, go back to save
power. This might cause a response frame to get lost, but since we
can't really wait for it while going to suspend that's still better
than not enabling powersave which would cause higher power usage
during (and possibly even after) suspend.

Note that this really only affects the very few drivers that use
the powersave implementation in mac80211.

Michal Kazior e9de01907e mac80211: don't clear all tx flags when requeing
When acting as AP and a PS-Poll frame is received
associated station is marked as one in a Service
Period. This state is kept until Tx status for
released frame is reported. While a station is in
Service Period PS-Poll frames are ignored.

However if PS-Poll was received during A-MPDU
teardown it was possible to have the to-be
released frame re-queued back to pending queue.
In such case the frame was stripped of 2 important
flags:

 (a) IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_PS_BUFFER
 (b) IEEE80211_TX_STATUS_EOSP

Stripping of (a) led to the frame that was to be
released to be queued back to ps_tx_buf queue. If
station remained to use only PS-Poll frames the
re-queued frame (and new ones) was never actually
transmitted because mac80211 would ignore
subsequent PS-Poll frames due to station being in
Service Period. There was nothing left to clear
the Service Period bit (no xmit -> no tx status ->
no SP end), i.e. the AP would have the station
stuck in Service Period. Beacon TIM would
repeatedly prompt station to poll for frames but
it would get none.

Once (a) is not stripped (b) becomes important
because it's the main condition to clear the
Service Period bit of the station when Tx status
for the released frame is reported back.

This problem was observed with ath9k acting as P2P
GO in some testing scenarios but isn't limited to
it. AP operation with mac80211 based Tx A-MPDU
control combined with clients using PS-Poll frames
is subject to this race.
