294196ab22 cfg80211: check allowed channel type upon userspace requests
Thanks to nl80211 userspace can be very specific upon device
configuration. Before processing the request for the new HT40
channel types (HT40- or HT40+) we need to ensure we can use them
regulatory-wise. This wasn't required with wireless extensions as
specifying the channel type wasn't not available and configuration
was done towards the end implicitly upon association or reception
of beacons from the AP. For the new nl80211 we have to check this
when configuring the interfaces explicitly.

038659e7c6 cfg80211: Process regulatory max bandwidth checks for HT40
We are not correctly listening to the regulatory max bandwidth
settings. To actually make use of it we need to redesign things
a bit. This patch does the work for that. We do this to so we
can obey to regulatory rules accordingly for use of HT40.

We end up dealing with HT40 by having two passes for each channel.

The first check will see if a 20 MHz channel fits into the channel's
center freq on a given frequency range. We check for a 20 MHz
banwidth channel as that is the maximum an individual channel
will use, at least for now. The first pass will go ahead and
check if the regulatory rule for that given center of frequency
allows 40 MHz bandwidths and we use this to determine whether
or not the channel supports HT40 or not. So to support HT40 you'll
need at a regulatory rule that allows you to use 40 MHz channels
but you're channel must also be enabled and support 20 MHz by itself.

The second pass is done after we do the regulatory checks over
an device's supported channel list. On each channel we'll check
if the control channel and the extension both:

 o exist
 o are enabled
 o regulatory allows 40 MHz bandwidth on its frequency range

This work allows allows us to idependently check for HT40- and
HT40+.

5078b2e32a cfg80211: fix race between core hint and driver's custom apply
Its possible for cfg80211 to have scheduled the work and for
the global workqueue to not have kicked in prior to a cfg80211
driver's regulatory hint or wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory().

Although this is very unlikely its possible and should fix
this race. When this race would happen you are expected to have
hit a null pointer dereference panic.

88f16db7a2 wext: verify buffer size for SIOCSIWENCODEEXT
Another design flaw in wireless extensions (is anybody
surprised?) in the way it handles the iw_encode_ext
structure: The structure is part of the 'extra' memory
but contains the key length explicitly, instead of it
just being the length of the extra buffer - size of
the struct and using the explicit key length only for
the get operation (which only writes it).

Therefore, we have this layout:

extra: +-------------------------+
       | struct iw_encode_ext  { |
       |     ...                 |
       |     u16 key_len;        |
       |     u8 key[0];          |
       | };                      |
       +-------------------------+
       | key material            |
       +-------------------------+

Now, all drivers I checked use ext->key_len without
checking that both key_len and the struct fit into the
extra buffer that has been copied from userspace. This
leads to a buffer overrun while reading that buffer,
depending on the driver it may be possible to specify
arbitrary key_len or it may need to be a proper length
for the key algorithm specified.

Thankfully, this is only exploitable by root, but root
can actually cause a segfault or use kernel memory as
a key (which you can even get back with siocgiwencode
or siocgiwencodeext from the key buffer).

Fix this by verifying that key_len fits into the buffer
along with struct iw_encode_ext.

fd2120ca0d net: use NLMSG_DEFAULT_SIZE in nlmsg_new() allocations
nlmsg_new() adds the size of the netlink header to the value
that has been passed as parameter. If NLMSG_GOODSIZE is selected,
we request an allocation of one memory page plus the size of the
header. Instead, NLMSG_DEFAULT_SIZE should be used since it
already substracts the size of the Netlink header.

I have the impression that the similar naming in both constant
is error prone when using it with nlmsg_new(). This is already
documented in include/net/netlink.h

because it doesn't see the __acquires(dev_base_lock) on
dev_seq_start() because it is only added to the function

faa8fdc853 nl80211: Add RSC configuration for new keys
When setting a key with NL80211_CMD_NEW_KEY, we should allow the key
sequence number (RSC) to be set in order to allow replay protection to
work correctly for group keys. This patch documents this use for
nl80211 and adds the couple of missing pieces in nl80211/cfg80211 and
mac80211 to support this. In addition, WEXT SIOCSIWENCODEEXT compat
processing in cfg80211 is extended to handle the RSC (this was already
specified in WEXT, but just not implemented in cfg80211/mac80211).

3f77316c6b nl80211: Add IEEE 802.1X PAE control for station mode
Add a new NL80211_ATTR_CONTROL_PORT flag for NL80211_CMD_ASSOCIATE to
allow user space to indicate that it will control the IEEE 802.1X port
in station mode. Previously, mac80211 was always marking the port
authorized in station mode. This was enough when drop_unencrypted flag
was set. However, drop_unencrypted can currently be controlled only
with WEXT and the current nl80211 design does not allow fully secure
configuration. Fix this by providing a mechanism for user space to
control the IEEE 802.1X port in station mode (i.e., do the same that
we are already doing in AP mode).

eccb8e8f0c nl80211: improve station flags handling
It is currently not possible to modify station flags, but that
capability would be very useful. This patch introduces a new
nl80211 attribute that contains a set/mask for station flags,
and updates the internal API (and mac80211) to mirror that.

The new attribute is parsed before falling back to the old so
that userspace can specify both (if it can) to work on all
kernels.

08645126dd cfg80211: implement wext key handling
Move key handling wireless extension ioctls from mac80211 to cfg80211
so that all drivers that implement the cfg80211 operations get wext
compatibility.

Note that this drops the SIOCGIWENCODE ioctl support for getting
IW_ENCODE_RESTRICTED/IW_ENCODE_OPEN. This means that iwconfig will
no longer report "Security mode:open" or "Security mode:restricted"
for mac80211. However, what we displayed there (the authentication
algo used) was actually wrong -- linux/wireless.h states that this
setting is meant to differentiate between "Refuse non-encoded packets"
and "Accept non-encoded packets".

(Combined with "cfg80211: fix a couple of bugs with key ioctls". -- JWL)

7be69c0b9a wext: fix get_wireless_stats locking
Currently, get_wireless_stats is racy by _design_. This is
because it returns a buffer, which needs to be statically
allocated since it cannot be freed if it was allocated
dynamically. Also, SIOCGIWSTATS and /proc/net/wireless use
no common lock, and /proc/net/wireless accesses are not
synchronised against each other. This is a design flaw in
get_wireless_stats since the beginning.

This patch fixes it by wrapping /proc/net/wireless accesses
with the RTNL so they are protected against each other and
SIOCGIWSTATS. The more correct method of fixing this would
be to pass in the buffer instead of returning it and have
the caller take care of synchronisation of the buffer, but
even then most drivers probably assume that their callback
is protected by the RTNL like all other wext callbacks.

0b258582fe cfg80211: fix wext iw_freq parsing
The function to parse a struct iw_freq has a stupid bug,
it returns NULL when the channel cannot be found at all,
but NULL is supposed to mean "auto". Fix this by checking
the return value of ieee80211_get_channel() and returning
ERR_PTR(-EINVAL) if it returned NULL (channel not found).

This fixes an issue where you could say (in IBSS mode)
	iwconfig wlan0 channel 21
and it would use channel 1 instead because that's the
first available channel with IBSS allowed (which is what
the "auto" setting uses).

dc6382ced0 nl80211 : Add support for configuring MFP
NL80211_CMD_ASSOCIATE request must be able to indicate whether
management frame protection (IEEE 802.11w) is being used. mac80211 was
able to use MFP in client mode only with WEXT, but the new
NL80211_ATTR_USE_MFP attribute will allow this to be done with
nl80211, too.

Since we are currently using nl80211 for MFP only with drivers that
use user space SME, only MFP disabled and required values are
used. However, the NL80211_ATTR_USE_MFP attribute is an enum that can
be extended with MFP optional in the future, if that is needed with
some drivers (e.g., if the RSN IE is generated by the driver).

ac46d48e00 cfg80211: fix race condition with wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory()
We forgot to lock using the cfg80211_mutex in
wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory(). Without the lock
there is possible race between processing a reply from CRDA
and a driver calling wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory(). During
the processing of the reply from CRDA we free last_request and
wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory() eventually accesses an

d323655372 cfg80211: clean up includes
Trying to separate header files into net/wireless.h and
net/cfg80211.h has been a source of confusion. Remove
net/wireless.h (because there also is the linux/wireless.h)
and subsume everything into net/cfg80211.h -- except the
definitions for regulatory structures which get moved to
a new header net/regulatory.h.

The "new" net/cfg80211.h is now divided into sections.

There are no real changes in this patch but code shuffling
and some very minor documentation fixes.

I have also, to make things reflect reality, put in a
copyright line for Luis to net/regulatory.h since that
is probably exclusively written by him but was formerly
in a file that only had my copyright line.

04a773ade0 cfg80211/nl80211: add IBSS API
This adds IBSS API along with (preliminary) wext handlers.
The wext handlers can only do IBSS so you need to call them
from your own wext handlers if the mode is IBSS.

The nl80211 API requires
 * an SSID
 * a channel (frequency) for the case that a new IBSS
   has to be created

It optionally supports
 * a flag to fix the channel
 * a fixed BSSID

The cfg80211 code also takes care to leave the IBSS before
the netdev is set down. If wireless extensions are used, it
also caches values when the interface is down and instructs
the driver to join when the interface is set up.

rather than acquiring it within.

Until userspace and distributions catch up with a default userspace
automatic replacement (GeoClue integration would be nirvana) we copy
the ieee80211_regdom module parameter from OLD_REG to the new reg
code to help these users migrate.

Users who are using the non-valid ISO / IEC 3166 alpha "EU" in their
ieee80211_regdom module parameter and migrate to non-OLD_REG enabled
system will world roam.

This also schedules removal of this same ieee80211_regdom module

65fc73ac4a nl80211: Remove NL80211_CMD_SET_MGMT_EXTRA_IE
The functionality that NL80211_CMD_SET_MGMT_EXTRA_IE provided can now
be achieved with cleaner design by adding IE(s) into
NL80211_CMD_TRIGGER_SCAN, NL80211_CMD_AUTHENTICATE,
NL80211_CMD_ASSOCIATE, NL80211_CMD_DEAUTHENTICATE, and
NL80211_CMD_DISASSOCIATE.

Since this is a very recently added command and there are no known (or
known planned) applications using NL80211_CMD_SET_MGMT_EXTRA_IE and
taken into account how much extra complexity it adds to the IE
processing we have now (and need to add in the future to fix IE order
in couple of frames), it looks like the best option is to just remove
the implementation of this command for now. The enum values themselves
are left to avoid changing the nl80211 command or attribute numbers.

636a5d3625 nl80211: Add MLME primitives to support external SME
This patch adds new nl80211 commands to allow user space to request
authentication and association (and also deauthentication and
disassociation). The commands are structured to allow separate
authentication and association steps, i.e., the interface between
kernel and user space is similar to the MLME SAP interface in IEEE
802.11 standard and an user space application takes the role of the
SME.

The patch introduces MLME-AUTHENTICATE.request,
MLME-{,RE}ASSOCIATE.request, MLME-DEAUTHENTICATE.request, and
MLME-DISASSOCIATE.request primitives. The authentication and
association commands request the actual operations in two steps
(assuming the driver supports this; if not, separate authentication
step is skipped; this could end up being a separate "connect"
command).

The initial implementation for mac80211 uses the current
net/mac80211/mlme.c for actual sending and processing of management
frames and the new nl80211 commands will just stop the current state
machine from moving automatically from authentication to association.
Future cleanup may move more of the MLME operations into cfg80211.

The goal of this design is to provide more control of authentication and
association process to user space without having to move the full MLME
implementation. This should be enough to allow IEEE 802.11r FT protocol
and 802.11s SAE authentication to be implemented. Obviously, this will
also bring the extra benefit of not having to use WEXT for association
requests with mac80211. An example implementation of a user space SME
using the new nl80211 commands is available for wpa_supplicant.

This patch is enough to get IEEE 802.11r FT protocol working with
over-the-air mechanism (over-the-DS will need additional MLME
primitives for handling the FT Action frames).

6039f6d23f nl80211: Event notifications for MLME events
Add new nl80211 event notifications (and a new multicast group, "mlme")
for informing user space about received and processed Authentication,
(Re)Association Response, Deauthentication, and Disassociation frames in
station and IBSS modes (i.e., MLME SAP interface primitives
MLME-AUTHENTICATE.confirm, MLME-ASSOCIATE.confirm,
MLME-REASSOCIATE.confirm, MLME-DEAUTHENTICATE.indicate, and
MLME-DISASSOCIATE.indication). The event data is encapsulated as the 802.11
management frame since we already have the frame in that format and it
includes all the needed information.

This is the initial step in providing MLME SAP interface for
authentication and association with nl80211. In other words, kernel code
will act as the MLME and a user space application can control it as the
SME.

3b85875a25 nl80211: rework locking
When I added scanning to cfg80211, we got a lock dependency like this:
	rtnl --> cfg80211_mtx

nl80211, on the other hand, has the reverse lock dependency:
	cfg80211_mtx --> rtnl

which clearly is a bad idea. This patch reworks nl80211 to take these
two locks in the other order to fix the possible, and easily
triggerable, deadlock.

The scan capability added to cfg80211/nl80211 introduced a
dependency on nl80211 by cfg80211. We can thus no longer have

e38f8a7a8b cfg80211: Add AP beacon regulatory hints
When devices are world roaming they cannot beacon or do active scan
on 5 GHz or on channels 12, 13 and 14 on the 2 GHz band. Although
we have a good regulatory API some cards may _always_ world roam, this
is also true when a system does not have CRDA present. Devices doing world
roaming can still passive scan, if they find a beacon from an AP on
one of the world roaming frequencies we make the assumption we can do
the same and we also remove the passive scan requirement.

This adds support for providing beacon regulatory hints based on scans.
This works for devices that do either hardware or software scanning.
If a channel has not yet been marked as having had a beacon present
on it we queue the beacon hint processing into the workqueue.

All wireless devices will benefit from beacon regulatory hints from
any wireless device on a system including new devices connected to
the system at a later time.

Calling kobject_uevent_env() can fail mainly due to out of

Additionally lets clarify that when CRDA is not called during
cfg80211's initialization _and_ if the error is not an -ENOMEM
its because kobject_uevent_env() failed to call CRDA, not because
CRDA failed. For those who want to find out why we also let you
do so by enabling the kernel config CONFIG_CFG80211_REG_DEBUG --
you'll get an actual stack trace.

each driver will stick to its own regulatory domain though unless
a country IE has been received and processed.

requests the same regulatory domain then simply copy to the
driver's regd the same regulatory domain and do not call

0c7dc45d21 cfg80211: Fix regression with 11d on bands
This fixes a regression on disallowing bands introduced with the new
802.11d support. The issue is that IEEE-802.11 allows APs to send
a subset of what a country regulatory domain defines. This was clarified
in this document:

http://tinyurl.com/11d-clarification

As such it is possible, and this is what is done in practice, that a
single band 2.4 GHz AP will only send 2.4 GHz band regulatory information
through the 802.11 country information element and then the current
intersection with what CRDA provided yields a regulatory domain with
no 5 GHz information -- even though that country may actually allow
5 GHz operation. We correct this by only applying the intersection rules
on a channel if the the intersection yields a regulatory rule on the
same band the channel is on.

This adds country IE parsing to mac80211 and enables its usage
within the new regulatory infrastructure in cfg80211. We parse
the country IEs only on management beacons for the BSSID you are
associated to and disregard the IEs when the country and environment
(indoor, outdoor, any) matches the already processed country IE.

To avoid following misinformed or outdated APs we build and use
a regulatory domain out of the intersection between what the AP
provides us on the country IE and what CRDA is aware is allowed
on the same country.

A secondary device is allowed to follow only the same country IE
as it make no sense for two devices on a system to be in two
different countries.

In the case the AP is using country IEs for an incorrect country
the user may help compliance further by setting the regulatory
domain before or after the IE is parsed and in that case another
intersection will be performed.

CONFIG_WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY is supported but requires CRDA
present.

02ba0b3263 cfg80211: call_crda() won't tell us if CRDA was present
kobject_uevent_env() can return an error but it just tells us
if the uvent was built/sent or not, it doesn't tell us anything
about what happened in userspace, whether the udev rule was present
nor does it tell us if CRDA was present or not. So remove
the informative complaint about it assuming it will tell us
such things.

Note that you can determine if CRDA is present after loading cfg80211
by using:

is_old_static_regdom(cfg80211_regdomain)

but this doesn't account for possible user install after initial
boot, and also for when the user uses the static EU regulatory
domain.

So far the __set_regdom() code is pretty generic as the
intersection case is fairly straight forward; this will however
change when 802.11d support is added so lets separate intersection
code for now in preparation for 802.11d support.

9c96477d10 cfg80211: Add regulatory domain intersection capability
There are certain scenerios where we require intersecting
two regulatory domains. This adds intersection support.
When we enable 802.11d support we will use this to intersect
the regulatory domain from the AP's country IE and what our
regulatory agent believes is correct for a country.

This patch enables intersection for now in the case where
the last regdomain was set by a country IE which was parsed
and the user then wants to set the regulatory domain. Since
we don't support country IE parsing yet this code path will not
be hit, however this allows us to pave the way for 11d support.

Intersection code has been tested in userspace with CRDA.

2083c4997b wireless: clean up regulatory ignore_request function
This function has a few WARNs that may eventually trigger
when an AP sends rogue beacons, those must be removed. Some
of the comments in the function are also inappropriate as
this function is concerned with the global hint, not a per-
wiphy thing (which a multidomain flag on a wiphy would imply).

I'm convinced that we don't need to do anything to implement
multi-domain capability as 802.11-2007 specifies it because
it makes only two things mandatory:
 * starting of BSS/IBSS must have country information
   (this can easily be done with a mac80211 patch)
 * a STA must adopt the country information (we already have
   the framework for this)

But we don't have anything implemented anyway for now.

The default for the regulatory compatibility option is wrong;
if you picked the default you ended up with a non-functional wifi
system (at least I did on Fedora 9 with iwl4965).
I don't think even the October 2008 releases of the various distros
has the new userland so clearly the default is wrong, and also
we can't just go about deleting this in 2.6.29...

Change the default to "y" and also adjust the config text a little to
reflect this.
