mac80211: fix ibss scan parameters

2016-02-24T08:04:27Z

When joining IBSS a full scan should be initiated in order to search for existing cell, unless the fixed_channel parameter was set. A default channel to create the IBSS on if no cell was found is provided as well. However - a scan is initiated only on the default channel provided regardless of whether ifibss->fixed_channel is set or not, with the obvious result of the cell not joining existing IBSS cell that is on another channel.

mac80211: refactor HT/VHT to chandef code

2016-02-24T08:04:21Z

The station MLME and IBSS/mesh ones use entirely different code for interpreting HT and VHT operation elements. Change the code that interprets them a bit - it now modifies an existing chandef - and use it also in the MLME code. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: Requeue work after scan complete for all VIF types.

2016-01-26T10:27:39Z

During a sw scan ieee80211_iface_work ignores work items for all vifs. However after the scan complete work is requeued only for STA, ADHOC and MESH iftypes. This occasionally results in event processing getting delayed/not processed for iftype AP when it coexists with a STA. This can result in data halt and eventually disconnection on the AP interface.

mac80211: Allow a STA to join an IBSS with 80+80 MHz channel

2015-12-04T13:43:32Z

While it was possible to create an IBSS with 80+80 MHz channel, joining such an IBSS resulted in falling back to 20 MHz channel with VHT disabled due to a missing switch case for 80+80. Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: make enable_qos parameter to ieee80211_set_wmm_default()

2015-11-03T09:55:55Z

The function currently determines this value, for use in bss_info.qos, based on the interface type itself. Make it a parameter instead and set it with the same logic for now. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: TDLS: add proper HT-oper IE

2015-11-03T09:42:47Z

When 11n peers performs a TDLS connection on a legacy BSS, the HT operation IE must be specified according to IEEE802.11-2012 section 9.23.3.2. Otherwise HT-protection is compromised and the medium becomes noisy for both the TDLS and the BSS links. Signed-off-by: Arik Nemtsov Signed-off-by: Emmanuel Grumbach Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: move station statistics into sub-structs

2015-10-21T08:08:22Z

Group station statistics by where they're (mostly) updated (TX, RX and TX-status) and group them into sub-structs of the struct sta_info. Also rename the variables since the grouping now makes it obvious where they belong. This makes it easier to identify where the statistics are updated in the code, and thus easier to think about them. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: use new cfg80211_inform_bss_frame_data() API

2015-10-13T09:36:21Z

The new API is more easily extensible with a metadata struct passed to it, use it in mac80211. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: fix the beacon csa counter for mesh and ibss

2015-06-09T20:04:25Z

The csa counter has moved from sdata to beacon/presp but it is not updated accordingly for mesh and ibss. Fix this. Fixes: af296bdb8da4 ("mac80211: move csa counters from sdata to beacon/presp") Signed-off-by: Chun-Yeow Yeoh Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg
