mac80211: fix miscounting of ttl-dropped frames

2019-03-23T07:18:53Z

[ Upstream commit a0dc02039a2ee54fb4ae400e0b755ed30e73e58c ] In ieee80211_rx_h_mesh_fwding, we increment the 'dropped_frames_ttl' counter when we decrement the ttl to zero. For unicast frames destined for other hosts, we stop processing the frame at that point. For multicast frames, we do not rebroadcast it in this case, but we do pass the frame up the stack to process it on this STA. That doesn't match the usual definition of "dropped," so don't count those as such. With this change, something like `ping6 -i0.2 ff02::1%mesh0` from a peer in a ttl=1 network no longer increments the counter rapidly.

mac80211: don't look at the PM bit of BAR frames

2017-06-26T05:10:50Z

commit 769dc04db3ed8484798aceb015b94deacc2ba557 upstream. When a peer sends a BAR frame with PM bit clear, we should not modify its PM state as madated by the spec in 802.11-20012 10.2.1.2. Signed-off-by: Emmanuel Grumbach Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

mac80211: discard multicast and 4-addr A-MSDUs

2016-11-24T03:56:41Z

[ Upstream commit ea720935cf6686f72def9d322298bf7e9bd53377 ] In mac80211, multicast A-MSDUs are accepted in many cases that they shouldn't be accepted in: * drop A-MSDUs with a multicast A1 (RA), as required by the spec in 9.11 (802.11-2012 version) * drop A-MSDUs with a 4-addr header, since the fourth address can't actually be useful for them; unless 4-address frame format is actually requested, even though the fourth address is still not useful in this case, but ignored Accepting the first case, in particular, is very problematic since it allows anyone else with possession of a GTK to send unicast frames encapsulated in a multicast A-MSDU, even when the AP has client isolation enabled.

mac80211: fix unnecessary frame drops in mesh fwding

2016-07-12T12:47:45Z

[ Upstream commit cf44012810ccdd8fd947518e965cb04b7b8498be ] The ieee80211_queue_stopped() expects hw queue number but it was given raw WMM AC number instead. This could cause frame drops and problems with traffic in some cases - most notably if driver doesn't map AC numbers to queue numbers 1:1 and uses ieee80211_stop_queues() and ieee80211_wake_queue() only without ever calling ieee80211_wake_queues(). On ath10k it was possible to hit this problem in the following case: 1. wlan0 uses queue 0 (ath10k maps queues per vif) 2. offchannel uses queue 15 3. queues 1-14 are unused 4. ieee80211_stop_queues() 5. ieee80211_wake_queue(q=0) 6. ieee80211_wake_queue(q=15) (other queues are not woken up because both driver and mac80211 know other queues are unused) 7. ieee80211_rx_h_mesh_fwding() 8. ieee80211_select_queue_80211() returns 2 9. ieee80211_queue_stopped(q=2) returns true 10. frame is dropped (oops!)

mac80211: Fix Public Action frame RX in AP mode

2016-03-22T15:11:07Z

[ Upstream commit 1ec7bae8bec9b72e347e01330c745ab5cdd66f0e ] Public Action frames use special rules for how the BSSID field (Address 3) is set. A wildcard BSSID is used in cases where the transmitter and recipient are not members of the same BSS. As such, we need to accept Public Action frames with wildcard BSSID. Commit db8e17324553 ("mac80211: ignore frames between TDLS peers when operating as AP") added a rule that drops Action frames to TDLS-peers based on an Action frame having different DA (Address 1) and BSSID (Address 3) values. This is not correct since it misses the possibility of BSSID being a wildcard BSSID in which case the Address 1 would not necessarily match. Fix this by allowing mac80211 to accept wildcard BSSID in an Action frame when in AP mode.

mac80211: don't use napi_gro_receive() outside NAPI context

2015-06-10T17:42:30Z

[ Upstream commit 22d3a3c829fa9ecdb493d1f1f2838d543f8d86a3 ] No matter how the driver manages its NAPI context, there's no way sending frames to it from a timer can be correct, since it would corrupt the internal GRO lists. To avoid that, always use the non-NAPI path when releasing frames from the timer. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reported-by: Jean Trivelly Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin

mac80211: fix RX A-MPDU session reorder timer deletion

2015-04-23T18:58:29Z

[ Upstream commit 788211d81bfdf9b6a547d0530f206ba6ee76b107 ] There's an issue with the way the RX A-MPDU reorder timer is deleted that can cause a kernel crash like this: * tid_rx is removed - call_rcu(ieee80211_free_tid_rx) * station is destroyed * reorder timer fires before ieee80211_free_tid_rx() runs, accessing the station, thus potentially crashing due to the use-after-free The station deletion is protected by synchronize_net(), but that isn't enough -- ieee80211_free_tid_rx() need not have run when that returns (it deletes the timer.) We could use rcu_barrier() instead of synchronize_net(), but that's much more expensive. Instead, to fix this, add a field tracking that the session is being deleted. In this case, the only re-arming of the timer happens with the reorder spinlock held, so make that code not rearm it if the session is being deleted and also delete the timer after setting that field. This ensures the timer cannot fire after ___ieee80211_stop_rx_ba_session() returns, which fixes the problem. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin

Fix a regression introduced by commit a5e70697d0c4 ("mac80211: add radiotap flag and handling for 5/10 MHz") where the IEEE80211_CHAN_CCK channel type flag was incorrectly replaced by the IEEE80211_CHAN_OFDM flag.

mac80211: fix multicast LED blinking and counter

2015-01-08T18:30:23Z

commit d025933e29872cb1fe19fc54d80e4dfa4ee5779c upstream. As multicast-frames can't be fragmented, "dot11MulticastReceivedFrameCount" stopped being incremented after the use-after-free fix. Furthermore, the RX-LED will be triggered by every multicast frame (which wouldn't happen before) which wouldn't allow the LED to rest at all. Fixes https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=89431 which also had the patch.
