commit 57629915d568c522ac1422df7bba4bee5b5c7a7c upstream.

The code was setting the capabilities byte to zero,
after it was already properly set previously. Fix it.

The bug was found while debugging hwsim mesh tests failures
that happened since the commit mentioned below.

[ Upstream commit 76f43b4c0a9337af22827d78de4f2b8fd5328489 ]

mesh_sync_offset_adjust_tbtt() implements Extensible synchronization
framework ([1] 13.13.2 Extensible synchronization framework). It shall
not operate the flag "TBTT Adjusting subfield" ([1] 8.4.2.100.8 Mesh
Capability), since it is used only for MBCA ([1] 13.13.4 Mesh beacon
collision avoidance, see 13.13.4.4.3 TBTT scanning and adjustment
procedures for detail). So this patch remove the flag operations.

<title>mac80211: mesh: flush mesh paths unconditionally</title>

[ Upstream commit fe7a7c57629e8dcbc0e297363a9b2366d67a6dc5 ]

Currently, the mesh paths associated with a nexthop station are cleaned
up in the following code path:

    __sta_info_destroy_part1
    synchronize_net()
    __sta_info_destroy_part2
     -&gt; cleanup_single_sta
       -&gt; mesh_sta_cleanup
         -&gt; mesh_plink_deactivate
           -&gt; mesh_path_flush_by_nexthop

However, there are a couple of problems here:

1) the paths aren't flushed at all if the MPM is running in userspace
   (e.g. when using wpa_supplicant or authsae)

2) there is no synchronize_rcu between removing the path and readers
   accessing the nexthop, which means the following race is possible:

CPU0                            CPU1
~~~~                            ~~~~
                                sta_info_destroy_part1()
                                synchronize_net()
rcu_read_lock()
mesh_nexthop_resolve()
  mpath = mesh_path_lookup()
                                [...] -&gt; mesh_path_flush_by_nexthop()
  sta = rcu_dereference(
    mpath-&gt;next_hop)
                                kfree(sta)
  access sta &lt;-- CRASH

Fix both of these by unconditionally flushing paths before destroying
the sta, and by adding a synchronize_net() after path flush to ensure
no active readers can still dereference the sta.

Fixes this crash:

<title>mac80211: Requeue work after scan complete for all VIF types.</title>

[ Upstream commit 4fa11ec726a32ea6dd768dbb2e2af3453a98ec0a ]

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.

<title>mac80211: use secondary channel offset IE also beacons during CSA</title>
<updated>2014-10-29T15:37:45Z</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=84469a45a1bedec9918e94ab2f78c5dc0739e4a7'/>
<id>urn:sha1:84469a45a1bedec9918e94ab2f78c5dc0739e4a7</id>
<content type='text'>
If we are switching from an HT40+ to an HT40- channel (or vice-versa),
we need the secondary channel offset IE to specify what is the
post-CSA offset to be used.  This applies both to beacons and to probe
responses.

In ieee80211_parse_ch_switch_ie() we were ignoring this IE from
beacons and using the *current* HT information IE instead.  This was
causing us to use the same offset as before the switch.

Fix that by using the secondary channel offset IE also for beacons and
don't ever use the pre-switch offset.  Additionally, remove the
"beacon" argument from ieee80211_parse_ch_switch_ie(), since it's not
needed anymore.

<content type='text'>
Having csa counters part of beacon and probe_resp
structures makes it easier to get rid of possible
races between setting a beacon and updating
counters on SMP systems by guaranteeing counters
are always consistent against given beacon struct.

While at it relax WARN_ON into WARN_ON_ONCE to
prevent spamming logs and racing.

counters.

Previously, the code to copy the RSN IE from the mesh config
would increment its pointer by one in the loop instead of by
the element length, so there was the potential for mistaking
another IE's data fields as the RSN IE.

cfg80211_find_ie() exists, so just use that.

Some interface types don't require DFS (such as STATION, P2P_CLIENT
etc).  In order to centralize these decisions, make
cfg80211_chandef_dfs_required() take the iftype into consideration.
