<id>urn:sha1:07715e528d188a681b10471fd19c91efaaa8c585</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit f3ffb6c3a28963657eb8b02a795d75f2ebbd5ef4 ]

We hit a problem with iwlwifi that was caused by a bug in
mac80211. A bug in iwlwifi caused the firwmare to crash in
certain cases in channel switch. Because of that bug,
drv_pre_channel_switch would fail and trigger the restart
flow.
Now we had the hw restart worker which runs on the system's
workqueue and the csa_connection_drop_work worker that runs
on mac80211's workqueue that can run together. This is
obviously problematic since the restart work wants to
reconfigure the connection, while the csa_connection_drop_work
worker does the exact opposite: it tries to disconnect.

Fix this by cancelling the csa_connection_drop_work worker
in the restart worker.

Note that this can sound racy: we could have:

driver   iface_work   CSA_work   restart_work
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
              |
 &lt;--drv_cs ---|
&lt;FW CRASH!&gt;
-CS FAILED--&gt;
              |                       |
              |                 cancel_work(CSA)
           schedule                   |
           CSA work                   |
                         |            |
                        Race between those 2

But this is not possible because we flush the workqueue
in the restart worker before we cancel the CSA worker.
That would be bullet proof if we could guarantee that
we schedule the CSA worker only from the iface_work
which runs on the workqueue (and not on the system's
workqueue), but unfortunately we do have an instance
in which we schedule the CSA work outside the context
of the workqueue (ieee80211_chswitch_done).

Note also that we should probably cancel other workers
like beacon_connection_loss_work and possibly others
for different types of interfaces, at the very least,
IBSS should suffer from the exact same problem, but for
now, do the minimum to fix the actual bug that was actually
experienced and reproduced.

<title>mac80211: correct use of IEEE80211_VHT_CAP_RXSTBC_X</title>

[ Upstream commit 67d1ba8a6dc83d90cd58b89fa6cbf9ae35a0cf7f ]

The mod mask for VHT capabilities intends to say that you can override
the number of STBC receive streams, and it does, but only by accident.
The IEEE80211_VHT_CAP_RXSTBC_X aren't bits to be set, but values (albeit
left-shifted).  ORing the bits together gets the right answer, but we
should use the _MASK macro here instead.

<title>mac80211: Run TXQ teardown code before de-registering interfaces</title>

[ Upstream commit 77cfaf52eca5cac30ed029507e0cab065f888995 ]

The TXQ teardown code can reference the vif data structures that are
stored in the netdev private memory area if there are still packets on
the queue when it is being freed. Since the TXQ teardown code is run
after the netdevs are freed, this can lead to a use-after-free. Fix this
by moving the TXQ teardown code to earlier in ieee80211_unregister_hw().

On init, ieee80211_if_add() dumps the interface. Since that now includes a
dump of the TXQ state, we need to initialise that before the dump happens.
So move up the TXQ initialisation to to before the call to
ieee80211_if_add().

<title>treewide: kmalloc() -&gt; kmalloc_array()</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=6da2ec56059c3c7a7e5f729e6349e74ace1e5c57'/>
<id>urn:sha1:6da2ec56059c3c7a7e5f729e6349e74ace1e5c57</id>
<content type='text'>
The kmalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kmalloc_array(). This
patch replaces cases of:

        kmalloc(a * b, gfp)

with:
        kmalloc_array(a * b, gfp)

as well as handling cases of:

        kmalloc(a * b * c, gfp)

with:

        kmalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp)

as it's slightly less ugly than:

        kmalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp)

This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:

        kmalloc(4 * 1024, gfp)

though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.

Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
dropped, since they're redundant.

The tools/ directory was manually excluded, since it has its own
implementation of kmalloc().

The Coccinelle script used for this was:

If userspace requested control port frames to go over 80211, then do so.
The control packets are intercepted just prior to delivery of the packet
to the underlying network device.

Pre-authentication type frames (protocol: 0x88c7) are also forwarded
over nl80211.

<title>mac80211: allow AP_VLAN operation on crypto controlled devices</title>
<updated>2018-03-29T09:35:22Z</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=db3bdcb9c3ffc628c5284d7ed03a704295ba1214'/>
<id>urn:sha1:db3bdcb9c3ffc628c5284d7ed03a704295ba1214</id>
<content type='text'>
In the current implementation, mac80211 advertises the support of
AP_VLANs based on the driver's support for AP mode; it also
blocks encrypted AP_VLAN operation on devices advertising
SW_CRYPTO_CONTROL.

The implementation seems weird in it's current form and could be
often confusing, this is because there can be drivers advertising
both SW_CRYPTO_CONTROL and AP mode support (ex: ath10k) in which case
AP_VLAN will still be supported but only in open BSS and not in
secured BSS.

When SW_CRYPTO_CONTROL is enabled, it makes more sense if the decision
to support AP_VLANs is left to the driver. Mac80211 can then allow
AP_VLAN operations depending on the driver support.

This reverts commit e937b8da5a591f141fe41aa48a2e898df9888c95.

Turns out that a new driver (mt76) is coming in through
Kalle's tree, and will conflict with this. It also has some
conflicting requirements, so we'll revisit this later.
