wifi: mac80211: don't drop all unprotected public action frames

2023-10-23T11:25:30+00:00

Not all public action frames have a protected variant. When MFP is enabled drop only public action frames that have a dual protected variant.

wifi: mac80211: drop robust action frames before assoc

2023-10-23T10:56:33+00:00

To be able to more easily understand the code, drop robust action frames before being associated, even if there's no MFP in the end, as they are Class 3 Frames and shouldn't be transmitted in the first place.

wifi: mac80211: rename struct cfg80211_rx_assoc_resp to cfg80211_rx_assoc_resp_data

2023-10-23T10:26:51+00:00

make htmldocs warns: Documentation/driver-api/80211/cfg80211:48: ./include/net/cfg80211.h:7290: WARNING: Duplicate C declaration, also defined at cfg80211:7251. Declaration is '.. c:function:: void cfg80211_rx_assoc_resp (struct net_device *dev, struct cfg80211_rx_assoc_resp *data)'. This is because there's a function named cfg80211_rx_assoc_resp() and a struct named cfg80211_rx_assoc_resp, see previous patch for more info. To workaround this rename the struct to cfg80211_rx_assoc_resp_data. The parameter for the function is named 'data' anyway so the naming here is consistent. Compile tested only.

wifi: mac80211: rename ieee80211_tx_status() to ieee80211_tx_status_skb()

2023-10-23T10:26:51+00:00

make htmldocs warns: Documentation/driver-api/80211/mac80211:109: ./include/net/mac80211.h:5170: WARNING: Duplicate C declaration, also defined at mac80211:1117. Declaration is '.. c:function:: void ieee80211_tx_status (struct ieee80211_hw *hw, struct sk_buff *skb)'. This is because there's a function named ieee80211_tx_status() and a struct named ieee80211_tx_status. This has been discussed previously but no solution found: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220521114629.6ee9fc06@coco.lan/ There's also a bug open for three years with no solution in sight: https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/pull/8313 So I guess we have no other solution than to a workaround this in the code, for example to rename the function to ieee80211_tx_status_skb() to avoid the name conflict. I got the idea for the name from ieee80211_tx_status_noskb() in which the skb is not provided as an argument, instead with ieee80211_tx_status_skb() the skb is provided. Compile tested only.

wifi: mac80211: fix change_address deadlock during unregister

2023-10-23T10:25:39+00:00

When using e.g. bonding, and doing a sequence such as # iw wlan0 set type __ap # ip link add name bond1 type bond # ip link set wlan0 master bond1 # iw wlan0 interface del we deadlock, since the wlan0 interface removal will cause bonding to reset the MAC address of wlan0. The locking would be somewhat difficult to fix, but since this only happens during removal, we can simply ignore the MAC address change at this time.

wifi: mac80211: Add __counted_by for struct ieee802_11_elems and use struct_size()

2023-10-23T10:25:01+00:00

Prepare for the coming implementation by GCC and Clang of the __counted_by attribute. Flexible array members annotated with __counted_by can have their accesses bounds-checked at run-time via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS (for array indexing) and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE (for strcpy/memcpy-family functions). While there, use struct_size() helper, instead of the open-coded version, to calculate the size for the allocation of the whole flexible structure including, of course, the flexible-array member. This code was found with the help of Coccinelle, and audited and fixed manually. Signed-off-by: Gustavo A. R.
