wifi: mac80211: pass frame type to element parsing

2025-11-10T09:39:02Z

This will be needed for UHR operation parsing, and we already pass whether or not the frame is an action frame, replace that by the full type. Note this fixes a few cases where 'false' was erroneously passed (mesh and TDLS) and removes ieee802_11_parse_elems_crc() as it's unused.

wifi: mac80211: do not offer a mesh path if forwarding is disabled

2025-05-08T21:59:12Z

When processing a PREQ the code would always check whether we have a mesh path locally and reply accordingly. However, when forwarding is disabled then we should not reply with this information as we will not forward data packets down that path. Move the check for dot11MeshForwarding up in the function and skip the mesh path lookup in that case. In the else block, set forward to false so that the rest of the function becomes a no-op and the dot11MeshForwarding check does not need to be duplicated. This explains an effect observed in the Freifunk community where mesh forwarding is disabled. In that case a mesh with three STAs and only bad links in between them, individual STAs would occionally have indirect mpath entries. This should not have happened.

wifi: mac80211: fix integer overflow in hwmp_route_info_get()

2025-02-26T14:45:43Z

Since the new_metric and last_hop_metric variables can reach the MAX_METRIC(0xffffffff) value, an integer overflow may occur when multiplying them by 10/9. It can lead to incorrect behavior. Found by InfoTeCS on behalf of Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

move asm/unaligned.h to linux/unaligned.h

2024-10-02T21:23:23Z

asm/unaligned.h is always an include of asm-generic/unaligned.h; might as well move that thing to linux/unaligned.h and include that - there's nothing arch-specific in that header. auto-generated by the following: for i in `git grep -l -w asm/unaligned.h`; do sed -i -e "s/asm\/unaligned.h/linux\/unaligned.h/" $i done for i in `git grep -l -w asm-generic/unaligned.h`; do sed -i -e "s/asm-generic\/unaligned.h/linux\/unaligned.h/" $i done git mv include/asm-generic/unaligned.h include/linux/unaligned.h git mv tools/include/asm-generic/unaligned.h tools/include/linux/unaligned.h sed -i -e "/unaligned.h/d" include/asm-generic/Kbuild sed -i -e "s/__ASM_GENERIC/__LINUX/" include/linux/unaligned.h tools/include/linux/unaligned.h
