2023-09-11wifi: cfg80211: remove wdev mutexJohannes Berg
Since we're now protecting everything with the wiphy mutex (and were really using it for almost everything before), there's no longer any real reason to have a separate wdev mutex. It may feel better, but really has no value. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2023-02-14wifi: nl80211: add MLO_LINK_ID to CMD_STOP_AP eventAlvin Šipraga
nl80211_send_ap_stopped() can be called multiple times on the same netdev for each link when using Multi-Link Operation. Add the MLO_LINK_ID attribute to the event to allow userspace to distinguish which link the event is for.

2022-06-20wifi: cfg80211: do some rework towards MLO link APIsJohannes Berg
In order to support multi-link operation with multiple links, start adding some APIs. The notable addition here is to have the link ID in a new nl80211 attribute, that will be used to differentiate the links in many nl80211 operations. So far, this patch adds the netlink NL80211_ATTR_MLO_LINK_ID attribute (as well as the NL80211_ATTR_MLO_LINKS attribute) and plugs it through the system in some places, checking the validity etc. along with other infrastructure needed for it. For now, I've decided to include only the over-the-air link ID in the API. I know we discussed that we eventually need to have to have other ways of identifying a link, but for local AP mode and auth/assoc commands as well as set_key etc. we'll use the OTA ID. Also included in this patch is some refactoring of the data structures in struct wireless_dev, splitting for the first time the data into type dependent pieces, to make reasoning about these things easier.

2019-02-01cfg80211: call disconnect_wk when AP stopsJohannes Berg
Since we now prevent regulatory restore during STA disconnect if concurrent AP interfaces are active, we need to reschedule this check when the AP state changes. This fixes never doing a restore when an AP is the last interface to stop. Or to put it another way: we need to re-check after anything we check here changes.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

2017-03-06cfg80211: Make pre-CAC results valid only for ETSI domainVasanthakumar Thiagarajan
DFS requirement for ETSI domain (section 4.7.1.4 in ETSI EN 301 893 V1.8.1) is the only one which explicitly states that once DFS channel is marked as available afer the CAC, this channel will remain in available state even moving to a different operating channel. But the same is not explicitly stated in FCC DFS requirement. Also, Pre-CAC requriements are not explicitly mentioned in FCC requirement. Current implementation in keeping DFS channel in available state is same as described in ETSI domain. For non-ETSI DFS domain, this patch gives a grace period of 2 seconds since the completion of successful CAC before moving the channel's DFS state to 'usable' from 'available' state. The same grace period is checked against the channel's dfs_state_entered timestamp while deciding if a DFS channel is available for operation. There is a new radar event, NL80211_RADAR_PRE_CAC_EXPIRED, reported when DFS channel is moved from available to usable state after the grace period. Also make sure the DFS channel state is reset to usable once the beaconing operation on that channel is brought down (like stop_ap, leave_ibss and leave_mesh) in non-ETSI domain.

2014-02-25cfg80211: send stop AP event only due to internal reasonIlan Peer
Commit "nl80211: send event when AP operation is stopped" added an event to notify user space that an AP interface has been stopped, to handle cases such as suspend etc. The event is sent regardless if the stop AP flow was triggered by user space or due to internal state change. This might cause issues with wpa_supplicant/hostapd flows that consider stop AP flow as a synchronous one, e.g., AP/GO channel change in the absence of CSA support. In such cases, the flow will restart the AP immediately after the stop AP flow is done, and only handle the stop AP event after the current flow is done, and as a result stop the AP again. Change the current implementation to only send the event in case the stop AP was triggered due to an internal reason.

2014-02-04cfg80211: consider existing DFS interfacesMichal Kazior
It was possible to break interface combinations in the following way: combo 1: iftype = AP, num_ifaces = 2, num_chans = 2, combo 2: iftype = AP, num_ifaces = 1, num_chans = 1, radar = HT20 With the above interface combinations it was possible to: step 1. start AP on DFS channel by matching combo 2 step 2. start AP on non-DFS channel by matching combo 1 This was possible beacuse (step 2) did not consider if other interfaces require radar detection. The patch changes how cfg80211 tracks channels - instead of channel itself now a complete chandef is stored.

2014-02-04nl80211: send event when AP operation is stoppedJohannes Berg
There are a few cases, e.g. suspend, where an AP interface is stopped by the kernel rather than by userspace request, most commonly when suspending. To let userspace know about this, send the NL80211_CMD_STOP_AP command as an event every time an AP interface is stopped. This also happens when userspace did in fact request the AP stop, but that's not a problem. For full-MAC drivers this may need to be extended to also cover cases where the device stopped the AP operation for some reason, this a bit more complicated because then all cfg80211 state also needs to be reset; such API is not part of this patch.

2013-12-19cfg80211: Add support for QoS mappingKyeyoon Park
This allows QoS mapping from external networks to be implemented as defined in IEEE Std 802.11-2012, 10.24.9. APs can use this to advertise DSCP ranges and exceptions for mapping frames to a specific UP over Wi-Fi. The payload of the QoS Map Set element (IEEE Std 802.11-2012, 8.4.2.97) is sent to the driver through the new NL80211_ATTR_QOS_MAP attribute to configure the local behavior either on the AP (based on local configuration) or on a station (based on information received from the AP).

2013-03-06cfg80211: move exported event functions into nl80211Johannes Berg
This is the sort of thing gcc's LTO could do, but since we don't have that yet we can also do it manually. The advantage is reduced code, both source and binary, e.g. on x86-64 text data bss dec hex filename 442825 56230 776 499831 7a077 cfg80211.ko (before) 441585 56230 776 498591 79b9f cfg80211.ko (after) a reduction of ~1k. But in order to not complicate the code move only those functions that are simple wrappers, not those that have functionality of their own. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
